Yellow Sticker Cajun Dinner

Yellow Sticker Cajun Dinner

It’s no culinary masterpiece, but it cost us about £1.50 for two decent plates of food and some Chicken for Tigger the cat.

So shoddy presentation aside, all’s good! The Cajun Chicken breasts were reduced from £3.00 to 90p. I’d not normally give them a second look at £3.00 as I can often get a whole Chicken for less. But 90p? Oh why not...

All we had with them were some coated Potato wedges (Our recipe is here) minted Peas and a bit of Brown Sauce. See we can do simple!

Mali – Poulet Yassa recipe

We're at “M” in our Around the World for £4 or less quest. This started out as a bit of fun “Let's find a recipe from every nation from A to Z with regional options for letters which don't have nations represented. “ You can see all the recipes we've tried so far here (Sorry they are not in Alphabetical order any more!)
 
So Poulet Yassa. It's a citrus Chicken dish which we served on a bed of fragrant rice.
 
Ingredients:-
 
1 small Chicken
1 large Onion, sliced
3 Chilli Peppers, minced
1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
½ the juice of a Lemon and a Lime
Cider Vinegar
Vegetables of choice sliced
Oil 
Salt & Pepper
 
Method:-
 
(1) Spatchcock the Chicken – (Details here) and marinade in all the ingredients except the sliced Onion for at least 4 hours.
(2) Cook the Chicken in the oven at 180c for 30 to 40 minutes until the thickest parts run clear which you pierce them.
(3) In a pan using the cooked marinade and mean juices fry the Onion for 10 minutes.
(4) Add your vegetables. We used Carrots cut into batons, sliced Red Pepper, sliced Mushrooms and Peas.
(5) Simmer until the vegetables are tender, but not too soft.
(6) Cut the Chicken into large pieces removing all the bones and add to the pan, stirring until heated through.
