Company Chicken over wheatberries with Green Beans Almondine
The signature menu for me.
Company Chicken Aka half a bottle of wine chicken (the other half is for the chef)
Chicken breasts
Sour Cream
Cream of Mushroom Soup
Mushrooms
Tarragon
Parsley
Chardonnay
This can be made with chicken breasts or tenderloins. Mix together Sour Cream, Cream of Mushroom Soup, Tarragon, Parsley, and Mushrooms. Then mix in half of a bottle of wine.
The sauce should stick to the chicken breasts but be translucent. You then need to season the chicken and place it in the sauce. This should cook covered for about an hour at 350 and then uncovered to thicken the sauce for about 30 more mins.
Serve this with Green Beans Almondine and a rice-y starch
Green beans almondine
French cut Green beans
Onion
Garlic
Limes
Almonds
Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until soft and a little golden. Zest and juice the limes usually 3. Then drain and wash the beans add them to the pan and let the beans get warm. Start toasting the almonds. Once the beans are warm add the lime zest and juice. Then add the almonds as soon as they are ready. YUM!

Braised Short Ribs with Creamy Grueyre Grits
Maybe not ribs, but beef of some kind.
Chuck Roast cut into pieces
Bottle of Red wine
3-4 cloves of Garlic
butter and olive oil
Italian Seasoning, Bay Leaves
Melt Butter and mix with olive oil. Sear the beef on all sides and remove from the pan. Put whole garlic cloves in to the remaining oil and soften. Then pour in most of the bottle of wine in, add bay leaves and Italian seasoning, reduce to about one cup. Add the meat back and simmer for 3 hours.
Cheese Grits
Mama's Grits- work on getting that into a recipe.
Swiss cheese according to original but cheddar works just as well.
Green vegetables would be great with this.

Fried Goat Cheese Salad
I realize the two seem unrelated
Weekend of May 1
Log of Chevere Plain
Panko Breadcrumbs
Olive Oil
Herb salad
Toasted Almonds
Cherry Balsamic Vinegar
Slice the goat cheese into rounds about 1/2 inch thickness and coat in dry breadcrumbs. Place in the freezer for 15-30 mins. Heat olive oil in a small frying pan test the heat with the crumbs when it cooks immediately it's ready. You can cook about 2 at a time cook for about 30 secs on each side or until golden brown. Serve immediately over salad. The Cherry Balsamic Vinaigrette is Amazing on this. Wisk equal amounts of vinegar and oil with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Heat up the coconut milk, Lime juice, Lime Zest, fish sauce, and garlic. Do not let boil. Keep at a gentle simmer. Put in the cayenne, and the cilantro after about 10 mins.
Start boiling water for the noodles, salt the water, cook the noodles and strain.
