Kitchen Diary

Yesterday I was in the kitchen all day baking Christmas cakes and by the time I had to start thinking about cooking supper I had about zero energy left and a very sore back for my troubles!! I had a pack of filleted chicken breasts to hand as those always cook fairly quickly...what to do with them....the chicken friccassee that bb loves so much? Nah, didn't have the energy to chop an onion......chicken schnitzels? NAH....didn't feel like making breadcrumbs! Hmmmmm what to do...............then my eye spied a little packet in my grocery cupboard...AHA!!! Just what I needed :o)

A couple of weeks ago I was in Woolworths and picked up a little packet of what was then a new product called Summer Sizzle Seasoning. I tossed it into the cupboard and thought I would wait for summer as it was still freezing cold in Cape Town at that time!!

Summer Sizzle Seasoning

For a seriously quick & easy meal I just pounded the chicken fillets between two pieces of cling wrap until they were a bit thinner. I just brushed each one with a bit of olive oil and then sprinkled liberally with the seasoning and a grinding of black pepper. I then pan seared them in a dry medium hot frying pan about two minutes on each side. By the time they were done the potatoes had baked in the microwave and I had thrown together a small mixed garden salad with Danish style Feta and dressed it with a teensy glug of Willow Creek Lemon Infused Olive Oil and a light squeeze of Black Gold!

Voila!! I can really recommend the Summer Sizzle Seasoning, it is delicious and will work on lamb, fish, pork or even sprinkled over veggies for braaiing or roasting.

 A stunning meal done inside of 10 minutes from beginning to end. And healthy too

(well, except for that buttery baked potato teehee....

Enjoy your Friday lunch everyone....
