Limey Baked chicken
I had run out of ideas for what to do for chicken and decided to browse Ptitchef for any chicken recipe, namely those involving broiling. I found this one which looked rather inviting. There wasn't much of a measurement so you have to wing it. The recipe gave the ingredients as fresh lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Then bake it at 350 degrees for about 40 - 50 minutes. I didn't have any lemons around so I went with lime juice. I felt it was too limey so I added in some sugar instead and it worked fine for me. I baked it for about 45 mins and finished it up with broiling. Hubby absolutely loved it and because there was a lot of gravy, he had a field day!
Sushi – California Rolls
Hubby has always been the one in charge of sushi, that is until I found a video showing "How to Prepare Perfect Sushi Rice" with Chef John Mitzewich. It absolutely put me in the spirit of doing just that. I also love California Rolls so that was going to be my project. Hubby picked out an avocado for me and we bought some imitation crab from the T&T Supermarket.
A few days later, I tried it out. I followed the recipe showed. I wasn't too sure about the amount of water though so added a bit more to mine. Wow, the rice came out really well, not mashed up. I didn't cut up the imitation crab, just microwaved them for a bit. I used two seaweed wraps cut into 2 and had four rolls. I learned a really good thing from this video "How to Make a California Roll" with Sushi Chef Lin. He had wrapped up his bamboo mat with cling wrap so no messy bamboo mats to clean now 
So here are the California Rolls!
Dark sauce chicken drumsticks
This is a "play it by ear" dark sauce. I wanted something sweet, sticky and at the same time savory and it ended up tasting a bit like the barbecue pork sauce. I added in a mixture of dark sauce, some red colouring, oyster sauce and a few other stuff which I can't rightly remember now. When I find the recipe which I probably scribbled on some piece of paper hidden away, I'll post it up 
Stuffed chicken leg
While browsing the internet, I came across a few videos of Chef Ramsey on youtube. One of them was his stuffed chicken leg. I stuffed the chicken leg with minced pork and then wrapped it with bacon. They worked out beautifully.
Bacon and onion pizza
This post is a bit delayed but we had this dish some time ago. Hubby was just a lil late in getting the pictures. We had bought some bacon at a good price (2 for CAD 4.00) and we had a field day, making stuff with them. One of them was the bacon onion pizza below, well, half of it anyway. Can't remember what the other half was now, was it minced pork? Yeah, we usually do go overboard with the cheese but Hubby loves cheese!
