Method

Main Course

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the chicken breasts.

  2. 2

    Bake the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

Side Dish

  1. 3

    Cook the Green Beans

    While the chicken is baking, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add trimmed green beans and cook for 4-5 minutes until tender but still crisp.

  2. 4

    Sauté Green Beans

    Drain the green beans and return them to the pot. Add butter, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Toss to combine and heat over low for 2-3 minutes.

Dessert

  1. 5

    Prepare the Cake Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix until smooth and well combined.

  2. 6

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into a greased cake pan and bake according to the package instructions, usually around 30-35 minutes at 350°F (175°C).

  3. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
