Update on dinner...

[telophase]

The chicken, of course, lacked any flavor whatsoever, so I knew that I had to do something to it that was strongly flavoerd, to make up for it. Ended up remembering the yellow curry paste I had in my fridge and the can of coconut milk in the cabinet. So I'm making chicken curry with half of it - two teaspoons of the curry paste (because I am an utter wimp about spicy-heat things) sauteed in a cup of the coconut milk, chicken tossed back in, soft onions and carrots picked out of the stock leavings and tossed in, and the lone semi-elderly potato I found chopped up and thrown in. And a cup and a half of chicken stock to liquify it up a bit. It's simmering until the potato softens now, and then I'll eat it. I also made a box of frozen peas and may throw them in for the color.

The other half of the cooked chicken is in the fridge awaiting a decision. I may go ahead and make chicken salad, but spike it with dijon mustard and apple cider vinegar and tarragon to make it flavorful.


I've still got about six cups of double stock now, waiting for me to figure out something to do with it that doesn't involve freezing it. :/
