07 - Chicken With Pine Nuts, Peppers and Tomatoes [Guiso De Pollo Con Pinones, Pimentos Y Tomatoes]
Finally, being the weekend I have space and time to cook something with a decent amount of ingredients. Still insanely busy as deadlines are fast approaching and my poor laptop is playing up. Cue a lot of backing up of files and re-installing wireless settings. While I've had better weekends I did manage to squeeze in a watching of March of the Penguins so eventually some kind of relaxing was able to take place... The Verdict: This was really yummy. It took a while to cook in the oven due to it being a casserole and our oven being erratic but when it was ready it was filling and the flavours of the wine and garlic had nicely penetrated the chicken. I also lightly toasted the pine nuts before adding because I'm rather partial to them that way. Technically it was supposed to be sliced green bell peppers used however I just used small red sweet ones so while I prefer their taste over the green, the end result didn't quite reach the full potential of the varied colour. Although a truly lovely flavorful dish, having it on its own was a bit lacking and it would benefit, I think from the inclusion of some rice.
Taste : 4/5 Pretty Awesome Time : 2/5 45 minutes Visual : 3.5/5 I Would Magic : 4/5 Surprisingly Juicy
