So as I unpacked my groceries my kitchen greeted me with a sense of optimism and hope. After 28 years my kitchen is now home to flour and brown sugar. I felt very proud that I finally have these two staples in my cupboards.
The recipe was pretty easy to follow but a little finicky. My electric skillet was little small for stir frying and wok purposes. I had to improvise when combining the sauce vegetables and chicken and put them into a pot on the stove.

The chicken and the sauce was very tasty. Not my favorite but it wasn't to bad. I did however have some issues with the Uncle Ben's instant rice. That was a "Kerri" moment. So what's the trick to cooking Uncle Ben's in the microwave? I missed the memo on that one.
Rice or Rice Soup? |
Here's my next question to the experts: When cooking with raw chicken and washing the dish in the sink how do ensure that the water is hot enough to kill the bacteria?
Degree of Difficulty 4
Execution 3 (I'm not counting the rice)
Bon Appetit, till next time :)

Washing tip that I devised myself.....wash the chicken stuff first in hot water with a splash of bleach and dish soap. Rinse off well. Once that stuff is cleaned, clean out your sink and run water for regular dish washing.
