tonight was leftover night and it was time to give the braised chicken from monday night another try. that chicken, while tasty, was too beige for a photo. this time i perked it up with some asparagus (that we had to use tonight because tomorrow we’re going here) and some parsley. same peas recipe i made the other night but with bigger chunks of pancetta for more chewy bacon-y flavor. and over grits this time because that’s what we had and i didn’t want to go to the store (did i mention this already? because we’re going here tomorrow). it was good in the same homey way, and though the grits sort of look weird in the photo i can never get enough grits (i feel the same way about polenta).
when we return i’ll test out some new non-recipe cooking, hopefully inspired by our travels. even more hopefully i’ll come home bearing these!
