lemon and herb chicken
The lights went out for like 30 minutes and I panicked! @_@ I went downstairs to the facilities office, and they told me something broke in the Meralco thingamajig. For a while I thought they'd forgotten that i paid my bills already. I was ready to drive home to my Mom's house for the night. :x
Anyway... I should have done my paper, but instead I cooked (again). So this was the result:
lemon and herb chicken, originally uploaded by foxdance.
I tried out an experimental marinade for the chicken breast. I just splashed on some extra virgin olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, some honey to offset the sourness, a sprinkle of rosemary leaves, and salt&pepper to taste. I let it sit for 30 minutes or so before frying it. The result was an aromatic, subtly flavored juicy chicken.
I also made flavored rice to go with it. I fried leftover rice with a tablespoon of pesto, a dash of balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, and some butter (sorry, couldn't resist).
I'm pretty happy with it over-all. :] Now to figure out what kind of sauce would go well with it... O hay.
