Today I want to post a craft of a different kind- food!
A few days ago, I was running out of interesting meal ideas, when I looked at some recipe idea cards from Sainsbury's. I really liked the look of the chicken recipe (one of the few types of meat I will actually eat).
Instead of making the pictured chicken though, I made one of the other suggestions on the card:
"Mix some lemon juice & zest & thyme into softened butter, then rub into the skin of a chicken for a delicious combination of flavours"
I must admit that I slightly altered this recipe- I added mixed herbs instead of just thyme, I missed out the zest as I didn't have any & if I make this again (which is very likely to happen), I thin I'll lightly cover the chicken breasts with some plain flour first, then rub the butter mixture on.
It was extremely delicious, and really succulent. The chicken was full of flavour, and I served it up with vegetables and rice. I'm looking forward to making this dish again soon :)
