gram to the blog - poultry carpenter

I'm going to talk a little more about the photos I once posted on instagram... some recipes, some things I just forgot to mention, whatever comes to mind really! The other day while reading a tasty recipe in the newspaper then decided I wanted to make my version of said recipe. I went to the local over priced grocery store (it was on the way home) and picked up 4 thinly sliced chicken breast, mini purple eggplants, green peppers and cremini mushrooms. I knew I had a few other ingredients at home like garlic goats cheese, rosemary and green beans. Since my right hand is STILL not completely healed I had to ask for a bit of help from my main man - Ty. Also forgot we don't own a meat pounder (christmas gift idea!) so we improvised! I got Ty to pound the chicken so they were thin, which would cut down on cooking time! I stuffed mine with ingredients noted above and Ty stuffed his with marble cheese instead (I had joked he probably put bologna in there too, but he really didn't!) Threw these little guys in the oven and decided to toss the green beans in a mix of honey, olive oil, garlic powder and chilli flakes over medium heat for about 5 mins. The chicken in the oven only took about 25 minutes! 
I plated the little stuffed chickens on top of a mix of arugula and spinach and a side of wild rice cooked in vegetable broth for extra flavour! 
That's it, that's all. 
enjoy
