Honey Dijon Chicken

So last night I was in the mood for chicken, and prepared a delicious dish of honey Dijon chicken. I didn't follow a recipe I just free-styled. Anyway, first I bought some rustic Dijon mustard that was imported from France. It had coarse texture which I found to be very flavorful, exactly what I was looking for.

Then I mixed in some ordinary supermarket honey, a little regular yellow mustard to add viscosity, and garlic. Salt and pepper were added and a little bit of olive oil. I whisked it all together and set it aside.

Afterwards, I took the chicken and seasoned it with salt, pepper, and coated it with olive oil. I made sure to season both sides of the chicken to make sure it was extra good:-)

I took out my good ol' Lodge frying pan, and browned the chicken skin side up. Once browned, I took the chicken out and brushed the sauce on it. I baked the chicken on 350 for 30 minutes covered, then for 30 minutes uncovered, basting it every 15 minutes.

I then cooked some brown rice, and wanted to cook some broccoli, but I realized that the broccoli had been in the fridge too long so I pitched it. I had to settle for canned mixed veggies:-(

Enjoy~

Went to Gladys Knight's Chicken and Waffles!! Very good except the yams tasted from the can.

Potato Nacho's

OMGEE, So Fahrenheit was soo good! The highlight was the potato nachos. They basically had home-made potato chips with scallions, herbs and olive oil drizzle with cream. They are definitely worth going back for. What I especially liked about my food was their use of salt, everyone knows I love my food...um..seasoned very well, and they got an A+ on that. For my entree I had lobster mac & cheese. It was pretty good, the pasta was al dente, and the cheese sauce was tasty and had a smooth texture and consistency. I think they used goat cheese which was different and added extra flavor. The cheese sauce could have used a little more cheese, but it was good nevertheless. There was not enough lobster in my humble opinion, but hey. The sun dried tomatoes gave it a different spin. I probably wouldn't order it again.

Out to Fahrenheit tonight

I'm going to Fahrenheit tonight for dinner. I'll try and sneak some pics, and post up tonight...this will be my first time there.

Stay tuned!

It's been a while, but I've just been so busy and didn't have time to take pictures. BUT, I did make a delicious dinner last night!! I made jerk shrimp atop sticky rice. I used the Whole Foods (365) brand of "Jerk Seasoning, Whole Foods (365) "Jamaican Allspice" fresh garlic, fresh scallions, and a white onion. I had about 15 small scampi's, so I de-shelled them, and sautéed them in 1 tsp of butter, and 1 table spoon of extra virgin olive oil. I also used kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, and more fresh garlic. After the shrimp were done, I mixed in the scallions and onion that I sautéed. This was my first time cooking sticky rice at home, it came out really well, the only problem was the pot that I used, it always sticks!! Anyway, after the food was done, I took about two serving spoon fulls of rice, and put the shrimp on top, it was sooooo good!
