90day made me do it: Brazilian chicken stroganoff

Making:

Brazilian chicken stroganoff

1 serving prepared

Inspired by Lady Shasha's 90 Day Fiance recap.

The recipe I used can be found here.

Here's what I have:

1 tbsp Butter

1 tsp Garlic

1 tbsp Tomato paste

2 oz water [not pictured]

3 tbsp Ketchup

1 cup Onion

1/4 cup Cream

11.7 oz Chicken

1/2 cup Quinoa

6 oz water [not pictured]

1 tbsp Yondu

1/4 cup Green onion

Preparation:

Quinoa:

8 oz of water was brought to a boil in a small saucepan. Once the water was boiling they can while it's at it and the pan set to simmer for 15 minutes. Once complete the pan was removed from the Heat and the yondu mixed in. The quinoa was set aside while the rest of the dish was being prepared.

Brazillian Chicken Stroganoff:

The chicken was cut into one inch chunks. Using a nonstick pan half the butter was added and the pan allowed to heat up before adding the chicken. The chicken was cooked until browned evenly and then removed from the pan and set aside. Next into the pan along with the rest of the butter and onions. These are cooked until translucent and the chicken was added back into the pan along with the ketchup tomato paste and garlic. I added salt and pepper to taste at this point. Last into the pot was the heavy cream and water. This was stirred in and allowed to cook on medium high heat until the sauce thickened

Green onions were added during plating.

The plate!

This was very... bland. I could try it again and use fresh tomatoes or do more stuff to dress it up. I just don't think ketchup belongs in a creamy chicken dish this way.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter. I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature. The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot. The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter. Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
