What's for Dinner, Mon., June 4, 2018

[NJCher]

Lamb stew with potatoes and carrots.

Tossed green salad with blueberries, candied pecans, and shredded carrot. Sprinkled it first with salt, then a little cider vinegar, and after that some mirin. Then a little drizzle of olive oil.

BTW, that's a cooking tip from the RG, who says to do it in that order because the vinegar makes it easier for the olive oil to adhere to the leaves when you put it on.

For dessert, tapioca pudding and bananas. Toasted walnuts on top.

1. Lemony chicken wings!

They sound and look so good I couldn't resist. Potatoes cook in the same pan and get the rosemary, garlic and lemon seasonings.

6. Quite tasty!

I cut it in half but followed the recipe faithfully otherwise. The liquid cooked off, and although I wouldn't call the chicken exactly crunchy, it browned up nicely. The flavor was wonderful. I might try making it with thighs or chunks of breast meat, just so that there's more of the chicken to eat. The potatoes rocked...the combo of lemon, rosemary, and garlic was perfect.
Winner winner chicken dinner!

7. Great!

Thighs are my favorites.

The original recipe called for 4 ounces of ground chicken orpork, but I've traded out the meat. It's an easy meal to tweak.
