I'm getting a little tired of trying out recipes this month and I'm thinking for the next two months I will likely do a lot of recipes from my keeper book. I like to do this when I start to get stressed, like when I start to think about Christmas shopping, which is about now. To be clear, I start thinking about Christmas shopping round about now, though I won't actually start shopping for another six weeks or so. In the meantime, I'll get stressed, and need to bring simplicity into my life, like by cooking meals I know I love.
As a preview for that time, tonight I cooked one of my all-time fave recipes for chicken. I think this is not a particularly healthy recipe, which is likely why it tastes so darn good. I found it on Epicurious years ago: Oven-Fried Chicken. Paired with home fries and more of the Napa-cabbage coleslaw we had Tuesday night, this is one yummy chicken meal. Greg didn't come home for supper tonight, and if I'd known in advance that was going to happen, I may just have eaten his serving too. Not that I would have needed it; it's just that good. Maybe if I'm lucky, he won't notice it in the fridge and I can eat his leftovers tomorrow. There. That's a sign for how good it is: I actually want the leftovers. Do you know how much I hate leftovers?
