Hey, sorry for sounding like a jag earlier.

You get a mandolin slicer and slice up a bunch of potatoes. Heat a cast iron skillet and melt a little bit of butter. Starting from the center, arrange the potatoes in a circular pattern working your way to the edge. Add a little melted butter, salt and pepper and repeat the pattern with another layer (sometimes I'll take the skillet off the burner as to not burn it). Repeat this for about 4 or 5 layers, cover with foil, and put it in a preheated oven at around 400-425° for about 30 minutes. Take off the foil and bake for another 25 minutes. Take out of the oven, place a platter over the skillet and flip it. Man, what you have is this golden crust with a light a creamy center. I'll put a little more salt and pepper and some parsley and you cut into it like a pie. A spring/summer tradition around here.

When I do the game hens, I like to take a pair of kitchen shears and cut out the backbone and lay it flat. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

I'll try to hold on. What wind force will the blow be? Sounds really tasty....

Sounds good!

Our plans for tonight have changed from ostrich or pasta to eating out. My 5 year old wants to take me somewhere. I'll find out where soon enough.... Approve

Dude, it went on for two, three, maybe four posts. If you get all in a twist over that, then it's time to seek help. Besides, I started this thing to begin with.

Normally I would; however, this was the second or third time it was mentioned. Just didn't see a need to rehash it.

Well, I got the reccipe from the chef at Coyote's Bar & Grill in Banff which I visited on holiday some 8 years ago. Guess that's why I refer to them like that....

well an update on the AR prog chef(s?) hahhaha.  This morning the better half made a great all-american breakfast of pancakes which were heavenly.  She loved IHOP when visiting here hahha.  For lunch... a great homemade pizza..not the crap we get served stateside but meatless and sauceless. With great fresh veggies and cheese. Absolutely delicious. Tonight...  the bad boy takes command.  I wanted to make Tacos, but endured another culture shock when I found during a visit to a chain grocery store, no taco seasoning, no cheddar cheese, no sour cream....  so I will reveal my true nature as a Prog Chef and whip up a half Mex half Italian Taco dinner for her tonight.  The results... hmmm..  but as always with me I guess... will be never be boring. LOL

I'm sure to cook something this weekend. I spent all evening putting together this new shelving unit I got for my discs; so, we ordered a pizza.

I'll probably make inside out cheeseburgers on Sunday. Ironically, that's an idea I got from Rachel Ray. I still think she's the antichrist, but I do owe her for the burgers.

NS, I do see her Joker-like smile every time I see the letters "EVOO". It's burned in my brain.

It's usually my wife who orders the same thing over and over. In my case, I have to get that chicken sandwich every time. I love that bread with the rings of red onion in it.

Back on track, Angelo:  tonight was shrimp scampi, started by sauteeing onion and garlic in EVOO (E is sorry he introduced this term to the thread Wink), then added the shrimp, butter and white wine, fresh parsley, and red pepper flakes.  Add to spaghetti and voila, one of my favorite dinners during Lent.

The frontega chicken sandwich is my favorite. I had that with a broth based soup and it was really good. It's good if you don't want to eat too heavy. It beats the crap out of Subway, that's for sure. E

 

I love Subway, but Panera is much better most of the timeCry

I've recently started to enjoy the Crispanis, they are delicious!


I saw that and may have to get one next time. How are they different from pizzas?
