Skinny recipe #17 Simple Italian Bake

Hello!
 
 
 
After a couple of nights of takeaways (slaps wrist), I really needed to cook something healthy, full of vegetables and something that would use up the odds and ends in the fridge.
 
This was a really simple dinner to make and required very little effort, which was perfect for me in my 'hopalong' state.
 
This recipe serves two and can either be served on its own or with rice, pasta or bread.
Calories per serving (minus a side): 360 calories!
 
 
 

 
You will need:
  • 4 ripe tomatoes
  • 1 red bell pepper (yellow would work instead of/as well as)
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 100g chorizo
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • Italian herb mix or any dried herbs
  • Salt & pepper to taste
 
Method:
  • Preheat the oven to 200C
  • Chop the pepper, onion and tomatoes into rough chunks and add to a roasting dish along with the peeled and lightly crushed garlic cloves
  • Thinly slice the chorizo and scatter around the dish
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and season with salt, pepper and dried herbs
  • Season the chicken breasts seperately and lay on top of the chunky vegetables
  • Bake for 35 minutes or until everything is cooked through
  • Serve & enjoy!
 
I enjoyed mine with a cheeky bit of sourdough bread :)

     
This recipe could easily be tweaked to include a variety of different fish or vegetables.
 
Please share yours :)
