Topic: which dish you like to cook for yourself ? (Read 3062 times)

This sounds really good. As long as you don't mess it up I'm sure it will be good

Hmmm.... like the ham idea, may have to give that a shot.  Think I'm gonna try using Swiss cheese next time. It'll definitely have more of a bite to it. I love cheese that has a sharp flavor to it.

Yeah, meat prices are getting a bit insane this year, luckily my local butcher hasn't passed on much of the cost yet.  Making those was pretty cheap.  Could definitely be made even cheaper with a cheaper cut of chicken. The fillets are a little pricey, but i had them sitting around and they needed to be used up.

Another dish I like to make is crock pot lasagna. Tonnes of recipes on Google. Makes for really cheap lunches.  I'll make it on a Sunday, portion it out, put it in freezer containers, and throw it in the freezer.  Take one out in the morning for work and it's usually thawed enough by lunch to warm it up in the microwave easily.

I've seen some of those before with ham but those look delicious
Bacon and meat on the grill perhaps even put some cheese and grill it
That or chicken as you used

Thanks for the good idea a good way to make something in the summer while saving a bit of cash
Darn Meat prices won't get in the way when it comes to the grill

Try then to watch 24kichen cable channel if you from Europe, or any other. On this they have shows with 30 min meal that is good and tasty.
My wife and I tried some and there are good easy to make and even easier to eat.

Waffles for the win all day every day! With some ice cream if needed hehe

i love to cook for myself different flavors of burrito, quesadilla, pizza, pasta and salads. so great foods.

Thanks.  They turned out better than I thought they would.  Someone on my facebook posted this recipe and I just played with it.

I was gonna try to make it as the recipe said, but it was rather warm out and I already had the chicken breast fillets sitting around.  That, and I like to use any excuse to BBQ on the deck when it's nice out, LOL!

I had a bunch of left over bacon and I just laid it out right on the grill.  Never BBQ'd bacon before, but it turned out really good. The BBQ gave it a good smokey flavor.

i am getting hungier now  must cook some good dishes tonight for dinner maybe an italian pasta or some japanese food

today I am trying to make chicken tandoori for lunch hope everything will be fine at the time of eating

TANDOORI CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 Tbsp garam masala
1 Tbsp sweet (not hot) paprika
1 cup plain yogurt
2 Tbsp lemon juice
4 minced garlic cloves
2 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon salt
4 whole chicken legs (drumsticks and thighs), or its equivalent, skinless, bone-in

METHOD

1 Heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat, then cook the coriander, cumin, turmeric, cayenne, garam masala and paprika, stirring often, until fragrant (approximately 2-3 minutes). Let cool completely.

2 Whisk in the cooled spice-oil mixture into the yogurt, then mix in the lemon juice, garlic, salt and ginger.

3 Cut deep slashes (to the bone) in 3-4 places on the leg/thigh pieces. Just make 2-3 cuts if you are using separate drumsticks and thighs. Coat the chicken in the marinade, cover and chill for at least an hour (preferably 6 hours), no more than 8 hours.

4 Prepare your grill so that one side is quite hot over direct heat, the other side cooler, not over direct heat. If using charcoal, leave one side of the grill without coals, so you have a hot side and a cooler side. If you are using a gas grill, just turn on one-half of the burners. Use tongs to wipe the grill grates with a paper towel soaked in vegetable oil. Take the chicken out of the marinade and shake off the excess. You want the chicken coated, but not gloppy. Put the chicken pieces on the hot side of the grill and cover. Cook 2-3 minutes before checking.

5 Turn the chicken so it is brown (even a little bit charred) on all sides, then move it to the cool side of the grill. Cover and cook for at least 20 minutes, up to 40 minutes (or longer) depending on the size of the chicken and the temperature of the grill. The chicken is done when its juices run clear.

Let it rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. It’s also great at room temperature or even cold the next day.

Shit dude that looks nice, will have to try making some of them soon.

ok i say goodbye to summer here in my country but i still not in the mood to cook so much because i am the only person here in my house  husband is away so i can only cook a dish for one person so it could be instant or a 10 mins food 

hey could you tech me how make this dish?
because looking so good

I figured I'd try something new last night on the BBQ.

You take boneless, skinless chicken breast filets and flatten them out a bit.  I chopped up some jalapeno, and mixed it in with some creme cheese.  Put a ball of the mixture in the middle of the chicken breast.  Wrapped them up and then wrapped them in bacon with some toothpicks to keep them together.

They can be a bit of a pain on the BBQ, but if you keep any eye on them, it's not all that bad.

Low heat is the key to cook the chicken without burning the bacon.  After some trial and error with a a few, I found that using the top warming wrack to crisp the bacon a bit worked good without over cooking the chicken.

Poor man's pizza: cheese on toast with oregano and ketchup.

i like the asian cuisine.

so chicken breast with some ginger, lemon grass, soy sauce. maybe a lil bit of coconut milk

you can do many different kind of styles and easily mix your own curry pastes etc.

TODAY I AM TRYING TO MAKE THIS FOR MY SELF HOPE IT WILL BE FINE

Cuz it summer time soon and really hot I dont want to spend to many time in kitchen so i try to make fast food (bot burgers and stuff)

Something that is good but eatable like rise with some vegetables and little bit of chicken meat or some chicken soup even cooked fish with potato salad.

What is Texas red? I googled it and the results were not food related. If I were to guess, I'd say you were talking about chili. But I'm not sure.
