What's for dinner?
Lately, the answer's been "take out."
Cooking has been majorly blah lately. My kitchen creativity is in the toilet, and it's been hard to find the energy to look for new recipes. I can't even come up with something new for fresh, organic chicken breasts. It's chicken for god's sake - just put some sauce on it and call it dinner! There's piccata, which I love, but it's so tired. Marsala? Tired. Chicken Parmesan? No thanks. The millions of other chicken recipes out there may as well not exist, because I'm too tired to look for them.
I remember this scrumptious, simple, and very unique chicken dish my best friend made for me once when I was visiting her in Atlanta. She got the recipe from a restaurant she used to work at in a former life. I believe she called it Chicken Adabo.
It goes something like this:
Saute onions in butter, add cream cheese, and mix. Stuff mixture into chicken breasts. Spread dijon mustard on top of chicken. Sprinkle on brown sugar and walnuts. Bake until done.
I may have forgotten a thing or two, but it's close enough. And it is sooo good. Dammit, I'm making it for dinner tonight!
