Just Chicken

I will be the first to admit when I fail so I feel that it would only be fair to include failed meals in this blog.  I must defend my horrible dinner though. 

My neighbor, our four kids and I went crabbing and we did not get home until 8:30.  The kids usually eat by 6:30 at the latest and they were about to eat me.  Also, the neighbor announced that he would be back in 20 minutes so that we could steam the crabs.

I had bought about 150 pounds of chicken thighs the other day so that was what it was going to be.  I had to challenge myself.  How fast can I cook Chicken?

I threw a little bit of oil and pressed garlic into a hot skillet and browned the chicken on medium to high heat



I ripped open a box of rice-a-roni



I plated it up.


I didn't even bother to open any vegetable because the kids wouldn't eat them anyway and I didn't  have time to do much more than gobble down what was on the plate.

THE REVIEWS

I thought it was more than edible especially considering the time crunch.  I wouldn't bother to write down the recipe but I enjoyed it enough

The kids ate like they had never seen food before but never commented on the quality of the meal

My husband ate the plate I had saved for him but his critique was less than kind and I will not repeat it.
