what's triple C? Chicken Casserole and Carbonara! my dear friends, i am about to unfold an easy and fanfuckingtastic dinner for you.. your partner to make you ;)
thank me later. actually, thank me all the time, everytime - thank me enough to remind me that i've changed your life forever! P:
what you need: (after each ingredient, i've put the amount in brackets as a guideline - this recipe cooks for 3-4peepoles)
brocolli (1) & tomato (1.5)
mushrooms (6) & ruby lou potatoes (5 small ones)
chicken thigh (or whatever part floats your boat - abt 3 pieces) & water
carbonara sauce (2), bilal doesn't eat pork; so i make it with alfredo for him & salt/pepper to taste & cumin seeds (grounded or whole - grounded is better)
oh! don't forget pasta/rice (1 packet/2cups), diced onions/garlic (1), and oil
method:
- cook pasta (i usually use spaghetti) or rice
- drain pasta (if you're making pasta)
- chop up the veges and the chicken. you probably wouldnt want your chicken to be larger than 4x3cm
- lightly brown the diced onions/garlic with oil in the large heated pot
- make sure there's enough oil in the pot before you put in the chicken - you don't want chicken stuck to your pan when
you your partner washes it
- as you toss the chicken around, sprinkle in a dash of cumin seeds - now you'll smell the aroma
- as your chicken starts to lightly brown (but is still a tiny bit pink), put in your potatoes. now.. my trick is to move the chicken to the side, and put the potato at the bottom of the pot - this makes the potato cook faster. put in some water to help the potato cook rather than fry
- when the potato seems almost soft enough to eat, put in the broccoli. by this time, i would be mixing everything around
- now you put in the mushrooms and tomato. and simmer/turn the gas off
- heat the carbonara sauce
- serve rice/pasta with chicken casserole, topped with carbonara sauce
YAY! what an accomplishment. you've succeeded in life!
