    Two “Janet loved this” in a row. Wow.

    Looks complicated but it’s not. I used top sirloin dry brined with Omaha Steak seasoning for 7 hours.

      Making Anthony Bourdain's Basque Chicken tonight. Tomorrow I will try to recreate Paladar 511 (NOLA)'s Tuna Crudo. I get to have culinary fun when Janet's out of town.

          It was great last night. Might be better the second day, haven’t decided yet, but it was damn good both nights. I highly recommend.

            Lamb chili and cornbread tonight. Didn't have any ground beef and the ground lamb needed to be eaten up. Meat, onions, Bush's Chili Magic, canned tomatoes and a can of green chilis.

            Doctored up cornbread mix with sour cream, an egg, corn and some honey. In the cast iron skillet. Easy, homey dinner.

              Made this last night, subbed in sherry for half the water like the notes said. Delicious.

                      Your recipe looks like honey garlic chicken?

                        @Mik said in The Cookbook:

                        Your recipe looks like honey garlic chicken?

                        Yup. That's what it basically is.

                        Mrs. George said, "It's good" rather than "It's OK", so it's on the "make again" list.

                        ETA: But I've never seen it made in a skillet.

                          I see you get the same lack of domestic support I do.

                          One would think a bit more appreciation for doing all the cooking would be appropriate.

                            Speaking of recipes, if you want to keep them on your computer, I can't recommend "Paprika" enough. Great app to store recipes, download from web, etc. Well worth the $35 or so it costs.

                                On the menu for tonight: Garlic Braised Chicken

                                If you have NYT access:

                                Chicken
                                By Eric Kim

                                Total Time 1 hour 15 minutes
                                Rating (1,850)
                                INGREDIENTS
                                Yield: 2 to 4 servings

                                Olive oil
                                2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken
                                thighs (about 4)
                                Salt
                                20 peeled garlic cloves
                                ¾ teaspoon ground white pepper
                                1 cup dry chardonnay
                                Steamed white rice, for serving

                                PREPARATION

                                Step 1
                                Heat oven to 350 degrees.

                                Step 2
                                In a large Dutch oven over medium-high, add enough oil to lightly
                                coat the bottom. Season the chicken with salt on both sides, then
                                add to the pot skin side down. Cook until the skin turns golden
                                and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. If the skin browns too quickly, lower
                                the heat. Flip, and sear the other side briefly, about 1 minute.
                                Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.

                                Step 3
                                Add the garlic to the schmaltzy oil over medium-high, and stir
                                until fragrant and very lightly golden at the edges, 1 to 2 minutes.
                                Stir in the white pepper, then immediately add the wine and 1 cup
                                water. Scrape up any stuck-on bits from the bottom of the pot
                                while bringing the liquid to a simmer. Nestle the chicken in the
                                pot skin side up, cover and cook in the oven until the chicken and
                                garlic are meltingly tender, and the wine has reduced, about 1
                                hour.

                                In that time, chicken fat, wine and water
                                turn into a luscious sauce packed with garlicky redolence. The white pepper, musky and full of earthiness, is a key taste here, so don’t skip it

                                Taste for seasoning, adding more salt if needed. Serve with
                                rice.

                                      Good recipe. Very tasty and easy. I recommend seasoning the chicken before flouring. I also added parmesan to the bread crumbs.

                                          That looks divine. I do a similar 'huli-huli' chicken on the grill, but this looks convenient for off season.

                                          Only non-witches get due process.
