No, I have not cooked any recipes with Julia Child lately (I am planning a meal into next week's menu),
but I have found a new favorite way to cook chicken-stuffed chicken!
I was so excited when I saw that my January 2011 edition of Cooking Light featured
25 Quick & Easy Weeknight Chicken Inspirations.
I always find myself scrounging to meet my daily protein intake,
so inspiration is welcome anytime.
These meals were two of the most delicious forms of chicken Seth and I have enjoyed together.
Pimiento Cheese Chicken
We were so excited and hungry after work/school for the first meal that we forgot to document, so here is what it looks like in the magazine.
The chicken was so so tender, and the filling was so creamy and flavor-packed.
Bacon and Goat Cheese Chicken
I was a little nervous using these ingredients, bacon can be too strong for my taste at times, and Seth turns up his nose every time I have crackers and goat cheese.
You can imagine my shock when the bacon was so subtle, and Seth complemented on how yummy the cheese was!
We paired both chickens with one of our favorite vegetables-grilled asparagus. We love it simple with just salt and pepper, but sometimes we like to liven it up. I sprinkled this little concoction over them-dijon mustard, lemon juice, melted butter, garlic powder, and minced onion-and it was a fantastic burst of flavors.
We both voted these dishes as keepers.
Cheers to many more 'keepers' in our future!
