Chicken bready thingy
A recipe for a sensually divine meal I made. At least something that comes close. I immediately forgot a key detail after I ate it. The notes below I wrote down later. They make something that is still fairly divine. I just can't promise orgasmic bliss with each bite. Second or third, perhaps.
Basic plan is to partially cook some chicken, make bread and before the final baking wrap it around the chicken.
The base can be tricky. If it is too thin it can easily get too sodden to rise properly. The flavour is still there but the texture is lacking and the eating messy. The chicken also needs to be cool enough that it doesn't kill the bread. Experimentation or knowing what you're doing will help.
The herbs chosen were mostly based around what I had growing in the garden at the time but they work so I'm not arguing. The cheddar was nice, but nothing special. The cheese on top was for decoration, to help seal the wrap, and because I can never resist cheese.
This is something that will improve in the fridge overnight. There will be less intense flavour in the middle but the bread will be suffused with the flavour from the herbs, cheese and chicken.
