When I posted My Favorite Chicken Dinner I heard feedback that it has been enjoyed and become a staple in a bunch of new peoples homes too. This chicken really does make about 2 full meals. The first night we do chicken and veggies with salad. The second I do enchiladas or chicken salad sandwiches, and the third night or meal I normally use the last bits for a soup.
I adapted a little spin off, “take 3” recipe to it. This really easy carrot and sweet potato soup takes about no time, and is a great served with a yummy salad or piece of good bread. Here’s the recipe!

I also cook it covered in my Round French Oven (one of the best birthday gifts ever. I use this thing all the time!) and I think it makes it taste even better. If you don’t have a cast iron pot no biggie, you can also use a roasting pan. (just ignore the cookie sheet, I cooked it on in the post I linked too :/ )
So tasty and easy!
enjoy.
