It is a big accomplishment to make something my picky kids approve and authorize to include in our dinners rotation. I don’t believe in kids food and grown ups food, food is food. But I am also patient and let them try new foods at their own pace. Yesterday they went from plane roasted chicken to chicken bites marinated in Dijon mustard, lemon juice and garlic. Hurray!
We called this dinner: Sheet Pan Chicken Bites. I cut boneless-skinless chicken bites, marinated them in Dijon mustard, lemon juice and garlic. Cook them in the oven for 30 min and finish them with a big sprinkle of parmesan cheese and parsley. I served the chicken over butter garlic spaghetti and that my friends, is a recipe for success.
