What's for Dinner, Thurs., Oct. 21, 2021

[NJCher]

Posting early because I'm leaving for Red Bank to have dinner with friends. We are going to a seafood restaurant. I've already looked over the menu and here's what I'm having:

Salad: Mixed Greens, Cucumber, Apples, Dried Cranberries, Candied Spiced Pecans, Creamy Pumpkin Vinaigrette

Soup: Lobster bisque.

We're going a bit early to dine outdoors before it gets too cold. Also to beat the evening dining rush.

1. I'm making a duplicate of the chili relleno soup I made last week

because it was so darned good. Anyhoo, I encourage everyone to make this soup because it is flat amazing and even my hubs who says he doesn't like soup for dinner (yep, he's a weirdo) says I can make it any time at all. I added grilled chicken to the soup so Mr. Needs Meat At Every Meal didn't feel deprived.

5. That looks really good

I love chile rellenos, and soup, so I'll definitely be making that.

2. Catfish

Pan-fried Cajun style served with red beans and yellow rice. Imgoing to take a stab at making the cornbread loafs NJCher posted last week. Ice cold beer to wash it all down!

3. Lasagna

Lasagna with beef sauce.

We're not so hungry since we ate a late lunch after errands.

FLFC rejected everything at first but acted hungry. He then accepted part of a Tums and belched a few minutes later. He then ate some beef set aside from the lasagna and also a chopped up Vienna sausage.

6. Sliced chicken breast stir-fried

with shishito peppers, garlic, onion, red bell pepper. Seasoned with black pepper and Slap Ya Mama cajun seasoning. I used a little chicken stock to make a sauce then tossed in some rotini. Topped with a little cotija cheese and green onion

I really just wanted to use up some things in my freezer and refrigerator, and it turned out to be pretty good.

7. I am such a fan of shishito peppers.

Made any which way…

8. They are one of my favorites,

I could eat a whole pan of them. That and good fried okra. There's a fast food chain in OK & TX that I will sometimes stop at and get 3 chicken nuggets, and a large box of okra. They have the best chicken, okra and rolls. If they had shishito peppers, I would probably be paralyzed by indecision, or just end up getting a large order of each.

When I make them at home, it's always with a small piece of fish or something so there will be more room for the peppers.
