Creamy Lemon-Garlic Chicken Skillet: Cooking With Courtney

From Feed the Soul:

You could throw a spoonful of creamy ricotta on just about anything and I would eat it. But what if that something is a zesty, savory, garlicky chicken skillet dinner with crisp green beans and chewy, nutty Israeli couscous?

I would eat it for every meal. For days. It’s not a hypothetical — that’s exactly what I did after throwing this recipe together for the first time. As far as comfort food goes, it’s reasonably healthy. You’ve even got a green vegetable in there!

Note: The recipe can be found here.

This meal feels light and bright thanks to the lemons, while the ricotta brings just a touch of indulgence. The earthy flavors of fresh garlic and thyme bring a cozy, comforting dimension to this meal.

Sprinkle some parmesan and lemon zest on top, and you’ll really be in heaven! I’m also dying to try this with a nice, yolky soft-boiled egg. Mmmmmmm…

Bonus: I made a video tutorial for this one! Check it out here:
