Browned Honey Butter Garlic Chicken

Happy 2021!

I am so grateful for a new year, for a new start, and for new beginnings! The last week of 2020 was probably one of the best weeks of 2020. Christmas Eve was spent at Kevin's Mom's house, Christmas Day was spent at ours and then the day after Christmas, Jace and I headed to Utah. I spent almost a week visiting with my sisters, brother, Mom, Ron, and kids. It was nice to have a vacation after a long and crazy 2020. And by long and crazy, I mean long, crazy, stressful, frustrating, all of the negative words due to COVID. But, 2020 is over and I'm looking forward to the future. 

This Honey Butter Chicken recipe is my first food recipe of 2021! And it was SO good, I wish I would have made more. The original recipe was from HERE and ours is below. 

Ingredients:
1 tsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp butter
1 lb chicken thighs (or more if you have a larger family to feed), boneless and cut into bite size pieces
Salt and pepper
2.5 tbsp honey
1 tbsp garlic powder
1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Parsley for garnish

Instructions:
Cut the chicken into bite size pieces. Heat oil and 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the chicken. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until the chicken is white. 

Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer and turn the chicken to coat in the sauce until it is carmelized.



Once the chicken is browned, remove from the heat. Serve with Asparagus and white rice.

Add box of chicken broth. Add cream of chicken soup (the original recipe called for 10oz of cream of chicken soup but I used a 22oz can and thought it tasted amazing!) Add 3oz of bacon bits I added pepper but you can also add salt based on your liking. I put the food on low for 6-7 hours.  An hour before you serve it, cut up the cream cheese and put it

Book Review and Summary - Prince Harry - "Spare"

Image
I may be one of the few, but I was intrigued by Prince Harrys' story, which prompted me to pick up his book "Spare." I have to say, as I first started reading, I couldn't put it down, I think I read 50+ pages the first day. I was aware of Prince Harry but knew very little about his life. I remember negative things in the news, all of the negative stories of him. He sounded to me like the "troubled" brother, and, unfortunately, he and everyone else believed he was. I also now understand the meaning behind the book title. The name "Spare" is a name that is described as the one that isn't important. Think of a spare tire, you are kind of pushed to the side until you are needed. As Prince Harry said, his brother was the "Heir" and he was the "Spare" and it was very unfortunate events throughout  the book that describe how and why he felt like this. He mentioned Willy (Prince William) and him were, "The Heir and the Spare. I

10 Ways to Make Parenting a Middle Schooler a Little Bit Easier

Image
My cousin and I were spending some time together a few days ago and she asked about Jace and how he was doing in school. After a few minutes, she suggested that I blog about it. Initially, I wasn't too keen on the idea, but after doing some research, I realized that parenting a middle schooler can be tough for a lot of parents (I got lucky and he is probably one of the easiest ones) at times so I decided to write down what I do to make our days better. Having a middle schooler is so different than having a child in elementary, to me. Here are 10 things that I/we have done that has really made our days easier and better together.  1. Be consistent - every morning I ask my son how he slept and when he comes home, I ask him how his day was. When we eat together as a family (2-3X per week), we each go around the table discussing our highlight of the day. If I somehow miss or forget the questions, he asks me what my highlight was or how my day was which I absolutely love.  On the same t
