7. Grecian chicken.

Boneless chicken breasts cut up, marinated for several hours with oregano, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Then grilled on a counter top grill.

Leftover veggies from last night, stir fried, and leftover rice pilaf also from last night. My small home smells WONDERFUL right now.

The countertop grill is a Hamilton Beach I originally bought at Target at least 20 years ago, probably more like 25 years ago, perhaps even 30 years ago. Time does fly. I used it regularly over the years, and perhaps two years ago it simply stopped working. Wouldn't turn on at all. Well, damn. So I went off to Target and to my amazed astonishment they still had the exact same Hamilton Beach countertop grill in stock. Can't recall what it cost me, but not very much. Maybe thirty dollars? At triple that it would be a bargain. I don't use it a lot, but I love it when I do.

And no, it does not heat up the kitchen when I use it.

8. Sauteed chicken breast

Pan sauce of drippings deglazed with evaporated milk. Salad. Reheated rice. Pretty basic, but it was fast, tasty, and didn't heat up the kitchen too much.
