Grilled Chicken and Mixed Vegetables

It started off like this... Saw a simple grilled chicken and mixed vegetable dish Ina Garten made and thought aha! I can make that very quickly for dinner, and will add potatoes to mine. I have to confess that it wasn't made quickly, it took me over an hour but most of that time was spent peeling potatoes...lol. Don't let that discourage you from making it, it makes a simple and healthy dinner.

 Lets start with the grilled chicken:

 The chicken breasts were marinated in 2 tablespoons of oil, salt, black pepper and half a seasoning cube for an hour, then thrown on the grill for 15 Minutes. If you do not have a grill, you can use a frying pan and cook the chicken breasts on medium heat, 5 minutes on either side.

Mixed Vegetables: This was made up of:

1 Can of Sweet corn
Half a Can of Kidney Beans
Half of a medium sized onion (chopped)
Chopped Green Peppers and Red Peppers
Butter
Cameroonian Pepper
Salt

I melted half a teaspoon of butter in a pan, and added the onions, fried for 1 minute, added the red peppers, fried for another 3 minutes, then added the green peppers, sweet corn and kidney beans, a pinch of salt and cameroonian pepper and fried for 3 minutes.

(Next time, I'll skip the red peppers. I used the naija red pepper (aka tatase) and the taste was too sharp, taking over the whole thing)

Served with potatoes and chicken stock gravy.

Result: Good-ish not exceptional
Difficulty Level: Medium
Making It Again? Yup, but with minor amendments
