Chicken Kiev: Attempt 3


So this time I didn't pick up chicken breasts still attached to chest cavities, but the thin slices were far too thin to actually work with. Only one stip actually held the bundle of onion, garlic and parsley. The rest were open on one end or the other, causing all the butter to spill out before they were done baking.


I started preparing these the day before (at the same time as the lasagna), so being able to come home and not really have to do any work offset the frustration of it not turning out as well as the first attempt.

About your mother's lasagna: the secret is not to worry about it and just start throwing things in there. Use ricotta cheese--screw the cottage cheese. What kind of Italian uses cottage cheese in lasagna? Cook or don't cook the noodles--it doesn't really matter as long as you just say no to onions and yes to a lot of sauce. Stuff a LOT of meat in there. Vegetarians can bring their own lasagna if they are horrified by the mounds of meat.....
....I love this blog, happiest puppy! I had no idea....that rat bastard Allan sold you out. GREAT photos. So, I will stalk you from the great internet and watch what's for dinner from afar....
