One Dish Chicken & Eggplant
Prep Time: 10 mins Cook Time: ~35-40 mins
You may have heard me say it before that I've been on a mission to come up with as many easy, delicious & healthy meals as possible...& if it can be made in one dish, pot, pan...even better!
This Chicken & Eggplant dish checked all the boxes.
I bought the Trader Joes Eggplant & Garlic with Roasted Pepper spread but you can use any tapenade or a plain or flavored hummus, even pesto!
The flavor is amazing & the chicken always comes out tender. And it tastes great as leftovers too!
Ingredients
-
1-2 packs of thin sliced chicken breast (I usually aim for 2 per person)
-
1 medium/large eggplant sliced into rings ~1/4-1/2 in. thick
-
1 jar of your spread of choice (see above)
-
~1-2 tbsp olive oil
-
salt & pepper (to taste)
directions
-
Preheat oven to 350
-
Lay the eggplant flat in a baking dish (it's ok if it overlaps a bit).​
-
Drizzle with olive oil & add some salt & pepper.
-
Lay the chicken flat on top of the eggplant.
-
Smear the spread all across the top of the chicken.
-
Add a little more salt & pepper to taste (optional).
-
Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
-
Serve over a bed of arugula or with a little rice or pasta on the side.
-
ENJOY!
