I had to work last night so Kirk was on his own with the girls. I had bought some skinless chicken drumsticks and had couscous and broccoli in the house. Kirk can handle the couscous and broccoli, but needed a little direction with the chicken.
Here's the simple recipe I have him.
Preheat oven to 400. Line a brownie pan with foil and place drumsticks in the pan. Add about 1/2 C. BBQ sauce. Rub drumsticks with sauce until well coated. Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes until browned.
Serve with couscous and steamed broccoli.
He said the kids loved dinner and he was very proud of himself.
The last time he made dinner, there were many tears and scowls. He made pork chops and corn. Apparently the chops were dry and the corn was too hot (?) !
Dinner tonight, probably ball park chicken thighs, baked potatoes and peas. We get home late tonight activities and this is a great dish that can be made in advance.
Recipe for Ballpark chicken:
equal amounts of yellow mustard and ketchup (about 2-3 tbs)
1 tsp. garlic salt
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Combine and bake in a deep dish ( a pie plate works well) . Bake at 450 for 15-20 minutes. Potatoes can be baked at the same time, put them in the oven 30 minutes before baking chicken.

I´m blessed with a husband who is a really good cook, better than me (he likes to do more complicated stuff). But he doesn´t know what the kids like, well hamburgers and his sunday-chicken, ok, I´m in charge of the kids dinners!
Will try your Soba noodles, looked easy and good.
