Welcome! Sounds like you have the right idea WRT the kids.

Paul F is really good with recipe ideas. I cook a lot of chicken and
turkey, the occasional brisket, corned beef, or roast/stew. It gets
boring after awhile.

Okay, okay.....one I tried the other night that was quick and
good........lightily floured (and sage) chicken breasts sauted in a frying
pan, when the chicken is done, you take 1/4-1/2 cup of dry vermouth pour
it in the pan and cook into the scraping until about half of it is gone,
then add a table spoon or two of lemon juice just before taking it off the
heat......that mixture is poured of the chicken...........then if you really
have time on your hands you can top it off with the zest from the lemon.
