Sunday Fried Chicken Dinner

• Pan-Fried Chicken with Gravy (see recipe below)
• Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes
• Sugar Snap Peas
• Romaine Cheddar Salad

This dish becomes an American farmhouse classic when served with Mashed Potatoes, Peas, and Salad. We bring it into the 21st century by mixing it up a bit.

Boost the flavor and lower the fat by using buttery flavored Yukon Gold potatoes and cooking them in chicken broth instead of water. Drain and mash without butter: you'll never miss it, especially with the gravy.

Available fresh or frozen all year round, these peas are sweet and snappy when cooked in boiling salted water for just 1 to 2 minutes. Toss with a dollop of butter -- it's all they need.

A bag of romaine salad mix tossed with creamy ranch dressing and sprinkled with shredded cheddar cheese rounds out this dinner.
