Chicken Breasts. Place 6 Chicken Breasts on a baking sheet in the oven at 450 degrees (Fahrenheit) for like 45 mins to an hour. Season with salt and pepper.

To this day I've never had chicken breasts or thighs that I've genuinely liked, unless they were the deep fried kind from Smiths or something. Feelsbadman.

My mom used to make this wonderfully thick beef stew with potatoes, carrots, onion, etc. Just your average American beef stew served over a bed of steamed rice. Maybe a little country bread with whipped butter spread over it. A tall glass of sweet tea (or a nice light lager nowadays ). Watching jeopardy with the senpai talking about my day at school or scouts. Eating quickly so I could go bust out the family PC or play some LOTR games on the ps2 with my older brothers.

The beef would always be super dry and tough because she used lean beef and never cooked it long enough. I guess she didn't know that chuck existed, or that it took at least 4 hours to stew beef. The stewed chicken drumsticks were always much better.

Damn I just remembered my mom used to put like a giant package of chicken wings in the crock pot along with like a bottle of that Jewish brand teriyaki sauce (the really thick one with sesame seeds in it). Along with I think soy sauce and maybe some rice wine vinegar and she'd cook that shit on low for like ten hours. Served on a bed of rice the meat would literally melt right off the bone.

chicken
More mustard
Chedder cheese
Baked in a casserole dish for almost an hour.

My mom was an abusive person and awful cook but I still get nostalgic for the only dish she could make, I'm not even sure what it was bros. It was some kind of crepes with this cottage cheesy substance inside. Probably 15 servings in a casserole dish. It was honest to god the best texture ever and I wish I could recreate it.

Served with sides of sour cream, jam, or peanut butter.

Blintzes. Blini are the little baby crepes created for caviar appetizers or the crepes themselves. Blintzes are the rolled and stuffed with dairy (blitzed cottage cheese or even a farmer's cheese or ricotta fresh cheese like that). Jewish, russian, german, they all made it, esp with local regional freezer jams and sour cream.

My mom was 3rd or 4th generation German. Her lazy dinner was to set up the electric skillet, brown some bone-in pork chops with onions, and dump in a wet brine packed bag of sauerkraut and put the lid on it for hours on low like it was a crock pot. The rendered fat and juice from the bones simmered with that kraut, and was golden delicious with the succulence of gelatin. I do not remember if it had caraway or even apple, so probably not. Unironically, one of my favorite things as a child. It was served with rye, butter, and probably some salad or mashed potato. This was the saturday kind of cleaning day ignored thing in the kitchen. Occasionally, she would prep it to order faster, or would use boneless chops and they were just not as fall apart tender when it was rushed.
