Prosciutto and Onion Frittata

Prosciutto and onion frittata

The recipe can be found at the L.A. Times website here. It's like a fancy omelet.

I followed the recipe except for the cheese. It didn't stick to the pan, was easily removed with a spatula.

In the 10" SS pan

Marinaded Chicken

Marinaded Chicken with Jasmine rice and boiled Broccoli. Tonight's mystery marinade was a mixture of: honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and Michiu. I minced up the garlic and ginger in the mortar & pestle, then mixed with the rest. The marinade and chicken were placed in a ziplock bag and marinaded away for over an hour. The chicken was finished with green onions and sesame seeds after resting in a tent for ~6 mins. Very juicy!

Le Creuset

Le Creuset is synonymous with the Dutch Oven. Their higher end products are made France. Sadly their lower end items are made in China. Most of the stoneware products are made in Thailand. At the Carlsbad outlet, I picked up a Le Creuset 10-Ounce Mortar and Pestle in Caribbean color.
I put it to good use tonight making a marinade for tonight's dinner.
