Sometimes simple is the best, especially when it involves fresh vegetables. This is one of those recipes. Nothing spectacular, just a simple, easy meal. All of the main ingredients are either from the Farmer’s Market (zucchini & beans) or could be from the Farmer’s Market given the right time period (chicken & potatoes).
Baked Chicken & Veggies
2 thawed chicken legs
1 1/2 cup green beans
1 1/2 cup chopped zucchini
1 medium red potato sliced thinly
1 tsp butter
1 tsp olive oil
Fresh ground lemon pepper
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Place thawed and rinsed chicken legs in a baking dish. Snap beans & chop zucchini. Fill in around the chicken. Sprinkle with lemon pepper.
Thinly slice potato and lay out over the other vegetables. Heat butter and oil to a liquid and pour evenly over the potatoes. Sprinkle with lemon pepper.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the chicken and potatoes are nicely browned.

Thanks! I do enjoy the challenge of a complex meal, but ones like this not only are easy to throw together but bring back fond childhood memories :)
