Well, here's what we had for dinner tonight - Ina Garten's Parmesan Chicken with baby greens and lemon vinaigrette. Oh, and potatoes because I'm Irish and I can't have a meal without potatoes!
And this is what we had for dessert. Strawberry shortcake-one of mine and Jeff's favorite desserts. Had to try this recipe for cornmeal shortcakes. And only real whipped cream would do-YUM!
Having a great week and making progress around here. I'm planning to do some sewing tomorrow again and Brady is planning to play some golf with Daddy. TTFN!
Oh, here are the recipes:
Ina's Parmesan Chicken

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving
Unsalted butter
Olive oil
Salad greens for 6, washed and spun dry

Pound chicken breasts until they are 1/4 inch thick. Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. On a second plate, combine the bread crumbs and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Coat chicken breasts on both sides with flour mixture, then dip both sides into egg mixture and dredge both sides in bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly.
