Chilli & Garlic Roast Thighs

Chilli & Garlic Roast Thighs

Sometimes we just fancy something simple you know?

Really not a lot of point in a recipe for this one. Mix Garlic Salt, Onion Salt, Chill flakes and any other seasoning you fancy in a bit of oil and roast your Chicken thighs until they are cooked! Sue also stuffed sliced Garlic into the meal by the bone - which added lots of flavour to the meat and guaranteed no Vampire attackes again.....

Exotic serving additions? A 30p tin of Baked Beans, some chips and home made Coleslaw!!!

Asian inspired Surf and Turf

These steaks were in a discount pack at the local Lidl. They were effectively a pound each. Not the greatest in the world, but very tasty none the less.

Ingredients:-

2 Ranch Steaks
½ a Red Onion, finely diced
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
½ a Red Chilli, finely chopped
1 Tsp of fresh Ginger, grated
½ a Tsp of Chinese Five Spice
1 Tbsp of Soy Sauce (Gluten free for us)
1 Tbsp of Honey
1 Tbsp of Oyster Sauce
8 King Prawns
1 Spring Onion, finely sliced
Oil to Fry
Salt and Pepper

Method:-

(1) Season the Steaks with Salt & Pepper.
(2) Add Oil to a large frying pan and fry the Steaks on both sides to taste.
(3) Set aside to rest.
(4) Add a little more Oil to the frying pan and fry the Onions until softened.
(5) Add the Garlic, ginger and Five Spice and cook until fragrant.
(6) Stir in the Soy Sauce, Honey, Oyster Sauce and Prawns along with 4 Tbsp of water.
(7) Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes until the sauce has thickened and the Prawns are cooked through.
(8) Spoon over the Steaks and garnish with Spring Onions and Bonito Flakes.

We finally found Bonito Flakes in an Asian supermarket. What we didn’t realise initially was that they react to heat and wriggle and wave. Which is cool, if perhaps a bit off-putting for some folk!
