Pan Seared Chicken

Last night I threw together some pastured chicken thighs and some other good stuff and came up with quite a concoction. It wasn’t a recipe per se as I just threw what I had in the pot.

Please share some of your ideas here too. We’d all love to hear from you.

I preheated my oven to 400 ° as  pan seared 4 chicken thighs in coconut oil until they were nice and crispy on the skin side. I took them out of the pan and sauteed some chopped onion and minced garlic in the oil that remained. Next I added just enough chicken stock to scrape up the brown bits. Reduced the heat and added some sliced black olives, artichoke heart and chopped tomato. I didn’t drain any of those items and this was nice and thick. I added the chicken back to the pan with the skin side up, right on top of the mixture and uncovered. Roasted this for 45 minutes and added fresh thyme to taste and a lot of fresh spinach to the sauce right as I took it out of the oven. Also added mushrooms. Plated the thighs and smothered it with the sauce. Topped it with Feta. Tasty:)

Train with purpose,

    Hi Sandy,
    Thanks for the workouts! I have a question on the food….do you make your own meals for you or does your wife and/or son eat the same things you do, and if so, what changes have you notice in them?

    Petra,

    Alex is 5 so that is tough. He will eat any meat I give him but insists on mac and cheese etc and I pick my battles:).

    Jen is all about it and has the body and lab numbers to prove it. She went from 145 to 124 and is stronger than when she began. She is a kettlebell beastess as well.
