Lemon Herb Chicken

1 3/4 c chicken stock
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried basil leaves
1 tsp dried thyme leaves
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
4 skinless chicken breast halves

Stir the stock, lemon juice, basil, thyme and pepper in a bowl.  You can grill this and baste the chicken regularly with the mixture.  You could bake the chicken in the lemon mixture for about 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.

I made the potatoes without the red pepper flakes this time and they were great.

1/8 cup olive oil 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1/2 teaspoon salt 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine oil, garlic, basil, marjoram, thyme, oregano, parsley, red pepper flakes, and salt. Stir in potatoes until evenly coated. Place potatoes in a single layer on a roasting pan or baking sheet. Roast for around 45 minutes in the preheated oven; turning occasionally to brown on all sides.

I cooked the asparagus in a little water in the microwave for 5-6 minutes.  Then I drained the water and tossed with a little butter, some kosher salt and pepper.
