Today was one of those days. I just couldn’t get moving. I had to force myself through my daily activities. Why? Because as any allergy sufferer knows, allergies just make you sluggish. And, living in the piedmont of the Carolinas has got to be one of the worst if not the worst places to live for outdoor allergy sufferers. Before this becomes a Zyrtec commercial, let’s move on. After all, the title does say ‘Things that make me smile::). So, after pushing through my day I wanted to come up with something quick, easy, and delicious for dinner. I had defrosted chicken breast sliced into cutlets but I didn’t relish standing pan-frying the cutlets. over a stove. So off to the land of Pinterest I clicked. I found this great easy recipe for baked chicken cutlets at simpleyhomecooked.com (https://simplyhomecooked.com/baked-breaded-chicken-cutlets/) The cutlets were ready in 25 minutes, with minimal preparation, and minimal cleanup. This was definitely a “thing that made me smile” today. I added a Knorr Pasta side dish of chicken fettuccini noodles and steam-fresh vegetables. The cutlets were very moist as I was sure to follow the directions that explicitly stated to spray both sides of the prepared cutlets with cooking oil spray. However, I would definitely use less or omit the salt that is called for in the recipe. The Montreal Chicken Seasoning gives the chicken a wonderful flavorful taste. Adding additional salt overpowered the chicken a bit. Salt and pepper can always be added after the first bite!
