Double batch: 4 chicken thighs 2 tablespoon dill Some thyme Tablespoon fish sauce Table spoon apple cider vinegar Used 3 large leeks instead of onions. Was a little short on lentils, added 1/2 cup jasmine rice to help thicken
Noah and I loved this meal. We had chicken breasts rather than thighs, so I seared them rather than baking them. I butterflied the breats and seasoned them with onion powder, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, rosemary, and lemon pepper seasoning. After I rubbed that in, I put the Dijon mustard all over both sides. I seared them, cut them into strips, and then put them back into the pan with some minced garlic and maple syrup. Not necessary, but I think it made it tastier. I put the leftover seasonings from the cutting board into another pan with steamed carrots and more maple syrup and let that cook for a little bit. I also cooked a cup and a half (dry) rice. I accidentally over cooked the rice, and Noah said he would have liked if the carrots were bit crunchier, but I thought they were the perfect texture. The only thing I would have changed is more salt on the carrots and maybe teriyaki sauce in the rice. Overall, we really like this meal. Noah gave it a 9/10 because of the carrots.
