Part 2
Time to cook the Little Blighter 😝
SO…
We have our poor dissected Chicken… now we have make sure he didn’t die IN VAIN 😊
First, VERY IMPORTANT…
Bag and FREEZE the Carcass for STOCK next week!!
Now, let’s cook the dark meat… my favorite 😋
You can’t have raw Chicken hanging around… best to get it in the fridge or freezer… or cook it or bin it… DO WHATEVER NEEDS DOING ASA”F”P😝
The LEGS and WINGS…
Bring a large sauce pan full of filtered Water up to boil… chuck in some fresh Thyme… some Garlic and an Onion… or DON’T if you can’t be arsed!!
After it comes to the boil… lower in your joints and set the TIMER for 30 minutes…
Meanwhile…
Take your Chicken Breasts and slice them lengthwise to make them thinner…
Then, get rid of some of the parental frustration by bashing the LIVING DAYLIGHTS out of the pieces under some parchment paper…
LOVE THIS BIT 😝👋👋👋👋
I happen to have just the MALLET!!
Next, arrange your tenderized Chicken Breasts in a shallow dish and pour over the cold Sauce from earlier!!
Throw on a couple of Lemon slices and some fresh Parsley… so it looks like you know what your doing… and set aside!!
A little goes A LONG WAY here!!
Now for the starch…
Oven roasted HEALTHY homemade easy as piss Fries!!!
Just get your Yukon Gold Spuds… wash and chop into fry-like shapes!!
Not DIFFICULT!!Toss with a little olive oil, just enough to lightly coat them…
VERY IMPORTANT!! Put on parchment paper on a baking sheet…
Otherwise they will stick to the pan and make a mess…
They roast at 425 for about 25 minutes… (forgot about mine and they became a little toastier ON ONE SIDE 😳than originally planned 😝)… still “THEY ATE THEM”
Oh… give them a shake after about 10 minutes 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Get ready to STEAM some Asparagus…
They take 4 minutes max!!
RESERVING THE WOODY STEMS for STOCK… OF COURSE 😊
Peel and cut Broccoli, INCLUDING STEMS… chop into pieces for oven roasting!!
Halfway through (so after about 10 minutes)… chuck some slivered Almonds on the Broccoli to IMPRESS the FAM’ 😝
OR NOT !!! 🙃
Where was I?????
Oh… so, now your Chicken is DONE!!
And if you can work out how the rest of it goes together…
DINNER IS SERVED 😘
🎉🎉🎉
I THINK 💋
