Still playing with this recipe a little bit, but it's tasty, quick and easy for a weeknight. The sauce is a little thin, and it could do with a wee splash of white wine in it I think.

Spanish Chicken

Feeds 3

Ingredients

3 chicken breasts

½ cup plain flour

100g pancetta

½ onion

½ red pepper

1 small courgette

6 tomatoes

4 cloves garlic

¾ pint chicken stock

2 teaspoons mild chilli powder

White rice

Thyme

Salt and pepper

Method

1 – Dredge the chicken in flour to evenly coat. Brown the chicken in a frying pan for 2 minutes each side.

2 – Set the chicken aside. Chop the onion, courgette, red pepper, tomatoes and garlic and fry along with the pancetta until the onions are tender. Pour in the chicken stock, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.

3 – Add the chicken to the pan. Add the chili powder, salt, pepper and thyme. Cover, and continue cooking for 15 minutes over a low heat or until chicken juices run clear. Serve with rice.

that can't work surely.

The quickest way to peel a single clove is to give it a quick bash with your hand or the flat of a knife. The skin just falls off, so I imagine this is working in a similar way.

Unless you're facing vampire attack there's probably not a lot of call for peeling a whole head of garlic at once though.

If it works, it would have saved about 3 hours of my life over the years cooking soup at the coffee shop.

Not to mention garlic hands.

I've started eating tomatoes in stuff. Anyone who knows me knows I fucking detest them. Or at least did. Well i don't know. I like the fact that I'm still not quite sure about them and they add an unsure risk to what ever food I'm eating. I bite in to one in a sandwich and it's like "do I like this? Don't I? Hmmm..."

Still, tomato ketchup is the worst thing ever. I think that's what put me off them in the first place.

I had vegetable curry and naan the other night. Was pretty delicious and I accompanied it with a Trashy Blonde. 'cause beer and curry is the way to go eh?

It was funny, my dad was moaning 'cause he wanted fajitas, but my ma was making chicken curry. I rubbed salt in the wound by using the fajita vegetables in my chicken curry.

Condiments are just one big happy family, some of which are more palatable than others, depending on the dish. Don't pit them against each other, you nasty homewrecking bastards.

Brown is the daddy. He's the provider. He literally brings home the bacon.

Tomato ketchup is the mother and the reliable home maker. She makes up the numbers and fills the gaps where you expect a condiment to be. Utterly dependable. She'll stick by you even when you have a flirt and a tickle with another sauce. What a woman.

Brown gets a bit tired of the same old Ketchup so he's been having a bit of an away day with Mayonnaise. She used to be a one trick pony, but now she's a rule breaker and she'll have a go on just about anything, the dirty slag.

Mustard, Salad Cream and BBQ sauce are still growing up. They know their place and have alot to learn. BBQ sauce is starting to think he's Billy Big Bollocks now that horrible shitbags have started putting him on Pizza. He needs a slap in the face from the hand of reality.

The Salad Dressing family live next door. They get their windows egged, and a lorry load of hatemail. You're not a fucking sauce. Hopefully they'll get firebombed and be chased out of town. Stupid runny shite.

Tabasco are the chavs across the road. They think they are well hard, but they contribute nothing to society. They are probably on benefits and have broken furniture on their lawn. They just attract scumbags.
