Ingredients
• 2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 lb. boneless
skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
season with salt & pepper, if you’d like
• 1 Tbsp. flour
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup sliced carrots
about ½-inch thick
• 1 package Knorr® One Skillet Meals – Lemon Chicken with Barley
• 1 package
6oz. baby spinach leaves
Instructions
1. HEAT your olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high
heat. Toss your chicken with flour and then cook 4 minutes until
browned. (Chicken will continue to thoroughly cook in Step 2 with
the barley.)
2. ADD water, carrots and contents of Knorr® One Skillet Meals to the
skillet and bring to a boil. Cover, turn down the heat to medium-low
and simmer 23 minutes or until barley is tender. (For perfectly cooked
barley, make sure to keep covered.)
3. PLACE your spinach on top of the barley mixture and cover.
Remove from heat and let stand covered 2 minutes (the heat will
begin to wilt the spinach). Stir until spinach is completely wilted and
well blended. Now it's delicious, dig in!
Notes
Chef’s Tip: Lightly flouring helps keep chicken moist during cooking.
