Easy weeknight dinners

I thought I would continue on a weeknight dinner track. Seems like our weeknights are pretty hectic these days.

This is the first day my husband has had off...he's exhausted!

Growing up, we had a limited variety of meats. We had a variety of veggies, but Mom didn't think pork was safe back then, and Dad didn't like chicken. We had ham and beef. I had to learn how to cook other things when I became an adult.

Oven Fried Drumsticks

Drumsticks are often a buck. There are about 4 drumsticks to a pound.

1/2 stick butter, melted
1 cup breadcrumbs mixed with parsley and Parmesan.
8 drumsticks , skin of desired

Wash drumsticks I'm cold water and dry on paper towels.
Spray a 9X13 pan with cooking spray
Dip drumsticks in butter and breadcrumbs,b mixture.
Place in pan, bake at 350 for 1 hour.





Spanish Fish

Fry 1pound of thin fish in a frying pan with olive oil about 4 minutes a side until done. Salt and pepper

Mix 1 can diced tomatoes- drained add a pinch of onion powder and oregano, 3 ounces of green olives, sliced, juice of 1/2 a lemon in a bowl.

Remove fish from skillet. Deglaze pan with water or wine. Add tomato mixture.
Heat through - 4-5 minutes until slightly reduced. Serve sauce over fish.
