Here's a pic of a dinner i made tonight...

I took Chicken breasts and butterflied them using a tenderizing mallet to thin them out.

I stuffed them with sautéed crimini Mushrooms, spinach, onion and garlic.

I then took a few pieces of bacon and fried them in a pan reserving some of the drippings.... (I later crushes the bacon into little bits to top over the dinner).

I used left-over stuffing mix (spinach, garlic, onion and crimini mushrooms) and threw those in the in the bacon drippings... after about a minute I put in the Balsamic Vinegar and let that reduce down with about 2 tablespoons of sugar (to help balance the acidity in the balsamic)..finished it with about 4 tablespoons of better to add some creaminess and a nice sheen to the sauce..

For the potatoes, I just used good ol' russets and cut em' into bite-sized pieces and placed them on a sheet-pan with olive oil, salt, pepper and a touch of Cayenne Pepper and Rosemary.

reduction?

that word, in my kitchen, means simply "hey, lets use paper plates, plastic forks/spoons for dinner so we can have a reduction in dishes."


I yearn for a dishwasher........
