Fri dinner - Chicken,lemon,wine,almonds,peas,artichokes, tomatoes,pasta


Tonight's dinner was very tasty and simple to make. The ingredients can vary. I will explain.

Boiled the salted water and put spaghetti in. Any pasta will do but I think spaghetti works best.

Toasted sliced almonds, about a 1/2 cup. WATCH, they toast and burn very quickly once they start. When almost done, I put in a separate pan or dish as they will burn in the hot pan.

I thinly sliced the chicken breast, optionally put some bottled Italian dressing on the chicken breast, shook some Italian seasoning on it, dipped it in seasoned bread crumbs and put in a pan with olive oil.

Turned the chicken and put some garlic in the pan, added the defrosted frozen peas and defrosted artichokes. I cut the artichokes in smaller pieces. Optionally put some diced fresh tomatoes in the pan, added 1/2 cup white zinfandel wine, 1/2 lemon and the zest, toasted slice almonds, 1 cup of canned crushed tomatoes, optionally some red pepper flakes, some Italian seasoning, and 1/4-1/3 cup of heavy cream, cover and simmer until boiling and chicken is done which will be very quick.

Any vegetable will work, asparagus, broccoli.

The toasted almonds can be used on top of the dish after plated. I also grated some cheese on top.

The toasted almonds was the key to the dish, this and the cream. And if everything else fails, or you don't<b> get sex </font></b>tonight! Drink the rest of the bottle of White Zinfandel.
