Martini style chicken

 

Charlie asked about having lasagne today. I told him that lasagne needed more notice than same day.  So then he suggested Martini Chicken.   That I could do, it's what we had,.  We like to have it with fettuccini and Alfredo sauce. 

Alfredo sauce was store bought. I added some mushrooms to the regular green beans and carrots.  That's probably going to become the way we do it from now on.
