Potluck parties — they’re a staple of the holiday season and for good reason. Food brings people together, especially when everyone shares it. The big issue that people run into, though, is having no idea what to bring that’ll be a hit with everyone at the party. Well, I have the perfect potluck solution for you.

Knorr® One Skillet Meals Lemon Chicken with Barley
Ingredients
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces (season with salt & pepper, if you’d like)
1 Tbsp. flour
2 cups water
1 cup sliced carrots, about 1/2-in. thick
1 package Knorr® One Skillet Meals-Lemon Chicken with Barley
1 package (6 oz.) baby spinach leaves
Directions:
- Heat your olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toss your chicken with flour and then cook 4 minutes until browned. (Chicken will continue to thoroughly cook in Step 2 with the barley.)
- Add water, carrots and contents of Knorr® One Skillet Meals to the skillet and bring to a boil. Cover, turn down the heat to medium-low and simmer 23 minutes or until barley is tender. (For perfectly cooked barley, make sure to keep covered.)
- Place your spinach on top of the barley mixture and cover. Remove from heat and let stand covered 2 minutes (the heat will begin to wilt the spinach). Stir until spinach is completely wilted and well blended. Now it’s delicious, dig in!
