I'm so proud of myself for the dinner I made tonight! I was going to make chicken stir fry, then realized at the last minute that I didn't have chicken broth. Neither of us wanted to go to the store to get some, so I said I'd experiment.
Earlier in the day, I was watching the Isaac Mizrahi show (which is extremely annoying, but I always seem to watch it), and he had Rocco DiSpirito on. He was making something like fish or chicken, and he made a lemon butter sauce to go over top of it. It sounded good, but I didn't have the recipe or anything.
So I tried it, and it turned out awesome! This is the first time I've ever made anything without first having a recipe.
The meal was cut up cooked chicken over rice with my experimental lemon butter sauce over top. The sauce had butter, lemon juice (obviously), ground pepper, salt, then (because it tasted too buttery) I decided to add some cooking wine and a little bit of lime juice, cause I was out of lemon juice. Delish!
i'm very surprised that it turned out the way it did. but now that you're gonna be a fellow westsider, you'll definitely have to come hang out more. especially when the hubby's are away!
