If you have been reading my blog, you know that I am a fan of chicken, potatoes, carrots and asparagus. Well this simple dish is all of those traditional things...with a little twist.I decided to serve the carrot whole, after they had been boiled in thyme, butter and water. The asparagus was just blanched til soft, yet crispy and the chicken was sauteed normally. I served them over mashed potatoes, swimming in a little bit of broth I made out of chicken stock, white wine, bay leaf and lots and lots of garlic. The delicious broth was a nice little twist that gave a punch of fabulous flavor!
When I say this might be the BEST dish we have EVER made, I mean it!! I have to give Marty the credit for coming up with the dish and both of us the credit for the amazing outcome..blackberry Merlot sauce, served over a grilled pork tenderloin with a side of lemon-asparagus risotto. Need I say more?!
B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!
So we were watching Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives and it inspired us to make our own onion burgers with hand cut french fries. Those of you who know the TRUE me, know that I love burgers and fries :) DELISH!
We used the iron skillet to perfect this dish which served as the perfect tool to blacken the chicken, using our own homemade blackening seasoning. The chicken was served our an easy cream sauce mixed with fresh broccoli and LOTS of parmesan cheese.
Marty is responsible for this wonderful meal. The Guiness really brought out tasty flavors in the meat. Every bite literally fell right off the bone and melted in your mouth!
This was my first attempt to make home-made lasagna...and it turned out fabulous and delicious! It took some patience and time, but it was well worth the wait!
