Dinner help - what to do with ingredients on hand?
Comments (7)Take those chicken breasts, either split the thickness...or pound to 1/4 inch and roll up with a slice of proscuitto and a "stick" of mozzerella and fasten with a tooth pick. Set aside in the refrig. Make crumbs out of something...panko, stale bread, crackers...ands eason with a bit of ground chili and a very little bit of crumbled rosemary...very little! Dip the chicken rolls in beaten egg and then in the crumbs and brown in a bit of oil in a fry pan....when theya re browned on all sides, put them in a small baking dish...don't want a lot of room around them....and deglaze the pan with a bit of white wine or broth and pour it over the chicken and pop it into a 350 oven for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile you have washed and tipped and tailed the beans, and have a large frypan going with at least one onion slices slowly caramelizing in butter... Blanch the beans in a bit of boiling water for about 2 minutes, just until they turn bright green and toss with the onions and a generous grind of black pepper... And at the same time....sautee 4 or 5 of those mushrooms and about 1/2 a red pepper and 4 or 5 scallions in a fry pan....and in your small Le C Dutch oven, bring 2 T EVOO to hot and add a cup of brown rice ( or arborio if you have some) and fry the rice until it becomes opaque. Add a schlurp of white wine and 1 3/4 cups of chicken broth, cover and bring to a boil. Shut off the burner while you make a salad... Break up the lettuce, add some skinny slices of sweet onion and some fruit...apple slices, pear, grapefruit...even strawberries or kiwi...crumble on it some blue veined cheese...blue or gorgonzola....and toss with EVOO until every leaf is oily,,,add the juice of 1/2 a lemon, 1/2 tsp sugar and a smadrizzle of balsamic. Stir the rice...check the chicken...is it too dry? better add a bit of wine and grate some parm on top...rice done? maybe best turn on the heat and give it a little more cook time... When the rice is aldente add a generous handful of chopped parsley, slice one of those fresh tomatoes for a side and plate up. I hope you have some lovely home made rolls to go with it all.
