Grilling Season is Here!!!

Got a great deal on chicken this weekend and since the grilling season is here and 4th of July is almost here, why not start by throwing some chicken in the grill? And after a weekend of eating out or grilled burgers at home, why not make a side of vegetables to go with that yummy chicken?

OK, so let's start with the side.

Ingredients:

1 lb sweet potatoes
1/2 onion
1 green pepper
2 roma tomatoes
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup shredded cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat your oven at 350 degrees and lightly spread olive oil on the bottom.
Cut your sweet potatoes, tomatoes and green peppers in small pieces, season it with salt and pepper, pour the olive oil, mix it all up and slice the onion on top.

Cube the butter on top of your sweet potatoes and veggies and cover with foil paper. Put it in the preheated oven for 45-60 min. Take it out, remove the foil paper, spread your shredded cheese and place in oven for 15 min or until cheese is melted and golden.

Well, our side is almost ready and I already had my chicken seasoned and in the grill.
Make sure you don't burn it before its cooked on the inside. I lowered my heat and placed the chicken on the upper rack of my grill. It keeps it from burning but it also helps the chicken to keep its moisture. Who likes dry chicken?

Now everything is done and here is my finished dinner and ready to eat.
Healthy but tasty dinner!!! The chicken had lots of flavor and the side too. My husband enjoyed it very much and I for sure did too.

Enjoy your day!!!! Happy cooking and eating.
