Lunch today was only a lettuce, cheese and tomato sandwich, but supper tonight is chicken that was marinated in sweet chili sauce, then low-simmered for a long time with coconut milk, pressed garlic, lemongrass and several overripe cherries. (I was so busy writing about
putting cherries in the freezer that I forgot to do so with the latest batch! Almost lost them and had to come up with several uses for overripe cherries - too ripe to pit.)
Sliced the chicken (I buy boneless skinless thighs from costco; apportion, marinate & freeze), placed it atop brown rice and spooned lots of the pan juices over.
It's good - could have used more salt - but omg, the cherries are amazing. All warm & sweet and milky. Yum!
Screw chopsticks - I'm going in to get a spoon.
Oh yeah, wine is a 2008 Chardonnay by Oyster Bay Wines, NZ. It's good.
