What do I know, I just cook here...

My basic kitchen thought process tonight:


  • I need to cook those chicken thighs tonight or tomorrow.

  • okay basic roasting thing, no problem, toss some oil and crushed garlic…

  • hrm. I have an awful lot of apples in the fridge I need to use, too.  Okay, chop two into slivers and toss ‘em in with the chicken for the last ten minutes of cooking, see if they pick up the flavor.

  • huh, let me set the chicken to finish and mash the cooked apple and garlic and… Dijon mustard?  Excellent idea!

  • oh hey, add a dash of that smoked chipotle salt to the mash, too.

  • serve chicken over heat-wilted spinach, topped with apple-mustard chutney.

Holy mother of gastronomy.  I need to feed this to, like, a thousand people.

Sounds great! (Makes notes for future dinners)

My chicken thighs are going into a stew tomorrow & the apples into mini crisps for breakfasts.
