6 ingredients you should always have

1. Garlic or onion
   
2. Olive oil, bacon fat or butter
   
3. Wine (red or white)
4. Salt

6 fresh ingredient dinner #1

1. Chicken breasts
   
2. Green Beans
3. Potatoes
4. Garlic
5. Lemon
6. Dried rosemary

I'm assuming every kitchen has salt flour and olive oil, but this is a suuuper easy, healthy meal that you can make in a few minutes

• Butterfly the chicken breasts so they're thin, dredge them in flour
• Heat a couple tablespoons of olive oil with dried rosemary in a pan until you can smell the rosemary toasting
• Brown the chicken for 2 minutes on each side on med-high heat, then cover on med-low heat until fully cooked
• Steam green beens until slightly tender but still crisp ( you can do this in the microwave if you want)
• chop potatoes into chunks after washing and brush with olive oil and minced garlic add a little rosemary if ya like, and roast the potatoes at 350 until they're where ya like 'em
• plate everything and serve with a little lemon
