Tonight's dinner was delicious. I'm eating really well!
I coated the chicken breasts with equal parts parmesan and bread crumbs and moved on to the garlic mashed potatoes. I boiled water and threw in 8 cloves of garlic, drained and then peeled them. The garlic heads were then cooked in a small amount of butter, covered. With flour, milk and s&p, it became a garlic sauce. Three potatoes were thrown into boiling water and mashed. A potato ricer was called for, but I do not own one, and I think if I did, the potatoes would have been even better. Before serving the potatoes, I mixed together the potatoes and the garlic sauce.
I blanched a handful of green beans and sauteed them with butter, parsley, lemon juice and s&p.
*Perfect Timing* Josh came home from work and dinner was just about ready. :)
The coated chicken breasts were sauteed in clarified butter and I made a brown butter sauce to top it off. The chicken was golden brown. Biting into the chicken it had a cheesy crisp in a moist bite. Wonderful. The beans were fresh and light - I used less butter for these beans. The mashed potatoes had incredible flavor. Garlic is yummy!
Another success!
