Dinner with Danielle and Jayme (featuring Ane, Dana, Luna and Kaya!)
Brown Rice Noodles with chicken and sauteed veggies
What you need:
Noodles:
8 oz brown rice noodles (I bought Annie Chun's Maifun)
Veggies:
A bag of shredded carrots
2 handfuls of fresh snap peas
1 large red pepper
8ish oz mushrooms
1 medium yellow onion
1 bunch of broccoli
Chicken:
2-3 large chicken breasts
olive oil
As much garlic as you can get your hands on
1/2 yellow onion
2 gulps of red wine
For the roux:
flour, water, sea salt, pepper (Ane made this without me watching, so you're on your own for proportions, sorry)
For the sauce:
1 tbsp dark molasses
4 tblsp cider vinegar
1 tblsp sesame oil
1-1.5c boiling water
a pinch of sea salt
What to do:
The night before dinner, I cut up chicken into pieces. I made the sauce with 1.5c water and marinated chicken in it overnight (also added a bunch of garlic)
Night before, I also chopped up veggies and put them in a tuperware in fridge (to save yourself the pain when you're hungry the next day)
Next day, boil a pot of water for noodles. Add a pinch of sea walt to water.
Sautee veggies in a big skillet with olive oil, sea salt, pepper.
I made another batch of the sauce, this time with 1c water to make it a little thicker.
Sautee chicken in a big skillet. Let simmer. Add in 3tblsp of the sauce you just made. Let simmer. Drizzle in roux to get the thickness you want (we added about 2 tblsp). Add in red wine.
Put your pasta in a big bowl. Add veggies. Then add chicken. Add some more of your sauce.
Pour yourself a glass of red wine :)
