Re: 10/24 Weekly Menus

Sun: Wedding

Mon: Butternut Squash soup in a breadbowl for me and Italian Wedding soup and a sandwich for DH

Tues: Chicken Meatballs over Gemelli with crusty Sourdough Bread

Wed: BBQ Steak, Red Mash, Corn on cob and steamed mixed veggies

Thurs: PW Chicken Piccata over angel hair (I never made this last week.....dh wanted Chinese lol

Fri: Sirloin Burgers with oven baked Fries

Sat: DH's famous Chili with Cornbread

Sun: Monti (Armenian "Wonton" Soup). Armenian Monti The link is for a tutorial on how to make them from youtube. She's someone's GrandmaChat Icon She's old-school using Crisco (gag) to grease the pan but uses shortcuts like chinese wonton wrappers instead of rolling out your own dough (which is tedious and extremely labor intensive). She tops them with a tomato broth....i don't. I submerge them into beef broth, serve and then top with homemade Yogurt. (this also didn't get made last week. It's my dad's favorite meal and he ended up in the hospital with pneumonia the day before Chat Icon )

I haven't even gone food shopping for the week. I'll edit when I do

This was the first time I made it - IT WAS AWESOME!!!


DRUNKEN CHICKEN



4 half chicken breasts,boneless and skinless

1/2 cup light rum

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon lime juice

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

2 tablespoons of butter

2 cups of sliced mushrooms

1 cup sour cream



Pound the chicken breasts into 1/2 inch thickness. Pierce each cutlet using a fork. Place in a single layer in a shallow dish and set aside. Combine next 8 ingredients and mix well. Pour over chicken. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Turn over chicken after 15 mintues and marinate for another 15 minutes.



Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Reserving marinade, remove chicken and saute in butter. Remove chicken and keep warm. Saute mushrooms (don't crowd in the pan). Reduce heat and add marinade. Gradually whisk in sour cream. Cook covered, on low heat for 5 minutes. Serve sauce over chicken.

Edited for recipe!!
