Fried Chicken Attempt

This morning I used some leftover chicken breast and cut into cubes to fry.I used just flour, eggs, salt and pepper to cook this dish. Very simple. Once done I used chopped parsley as garnish and used mustard and garlic chillies as dipping sauce for the fried chicken.Thinking of making caramelized onions as side dish but I am too lazy :)

Chicken Breast with vegetables stuffings and Peasant Pasta

The lunch I cooked yesterday...

Peasant Pasta : Such a simple dish no fuss at all. Ingredients use is just pasta cooked al dente and minced meat only. Thats why I call it the Peasant Pasta

The chicken breast : Create an opening on the middle of the breast

Vegetable stuffings : I use diced carrot,celery,tomato and red pepper as stuffings.First heat up the pan with olive oil.Once hot, throw in some chopped onions and cook until fragrant.Add in all the vegetables and sauteed the vegetables with seasoning of salt and pepper. Stuffed the vege into the opening and add in mozarella cheese with stuffings.You can use any cheese as well.Leave spme vege for garnish.Once done use toothpick to seal the opening. Heat up the pan.Once hot pour in the olive oil, brown the presentation side first.Once it nicely brown, turn to other side and cooked.Once done, put it aside. Take a spoonful of butter, put into the pan and let it melt.Once melt, pour in chicken stock and a few rosemary sprigs as well.Let it simmer and reduce. Once done,pour on to the chicken breast..there you go pan sauce.

My Big Breakfast

This morning I have a meeting to go to so I need a quick breakfast to fill my stomach for the rest of the day. I just open the fridge and check what i can have for breakfast and gleefully saw i still have a leftover marinated piece of salmon in olive oil and parsley and a few slivers of chicken...I thought that will do. So at the end my breakfast are salmon fillet in butter sauce and spaghetti with slivers of chicken. Start with salmon as it was marinated i just pan fried both side and as salmon is so versatile you can also poach or steam it or smoke it. Once both side done, place it aside for it to rest and start preparing the sauce. Dont wash the pan we need the essence left in the pan, throw in a clove of garlic diced, swirl it around then throw in a spoon of butter. Whisk it until the butter incorporated.Take of the heat and kepp whisking for a few seconds.There you go...butter sauce mate. Pour over the salmon and ready to rock and roll.
For the pasta I use the most uncoventional way due to time constraint. Heat up the pan and pour in the olive oil. Once the oil hot up throw in the chicken sliver to sear, add in salt and pepper for seasoning and meanwhile the pasta was in a pot of salted water boiling away. Once pasta cooked drain it put into cold water to stop it from continuing cooking. At that time the chicken should be done. Before taking it out from the heat, throw in chopped parsley and parmesan if you want.After a few second take off from heat, throw in the spaghetti.Mix it nicely add add a dash of olive oil since it will be no sauce, if you dont addin the olive oil it will be very dry. Mix it again and serve. You can arrange it like me as you want and add tomato as garnish. Ready to rock and roll mates
