Chicken Salad!!

This time I actually did forget about dinner. My sister, Miriel has been visiting for the past two weeks and today was her last day in town so I was at our other sister's hanging with her and Baby G. (Baby G is very cute as you will realize when you see his giggling mug. :) ) So anyway, I was on my way home a bit after four and suddenly it dawned on me. DINNER. I forgot about dinner. UuuuuUUUGHHhHH. Usually, I try to pull out frozen meat the day before but today I'm pulling the super classy hot water quick-thaw method on some chicken. Jeff's gonna be home in less than an hour and we have a very busy evening in front of us. I'd better get crackin'

The FAST Chicken Salad!*

• 3 chicken tenderloins
• salt and pepper to taste
• bacon grease/butter/oil for the pan
• 1 medium onion
• finest of week old lettuces, enough for 3 portions
• 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (I used white habanero)
• oil and vinegar, salt and pepper to taste

Okay, just pulled my chicken out of its hot water bath. Now I shall salt and pepper it to taste and slam it into a greased saute pan that has been heated to medium-high. BOOM! While that is cooking (6-10 minutes, flipped once) I shall quickly dice my onion into medium/large dice. When the chicken is done, add more grease and throw in the onions. Saute them until they are brownish and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Turn off your pan! Now quickly, cut up the lettuce however you prefer (I was lazy. People can cut up their own lettuce)

This is how you cut a head of lettuce in thirds.

Layer the chicken, onions and cheese on to make it look like you actually remembered about dinner and drizzle with the oil and vinegar or your favorite high-fat dressing! Voila! Dinner. 

Much love,

Tirienne
