What’s a girl do when she’s told by the news to stay in her “ safe zone” my safe zone… the kitchen .. today it’s roasted chicken a red wine … roasted garlic red bell pepper sauce made only by my friends orlando and Trudy .. all by hand and bottled by them!! ( I add 2 cups of merlot to the sauce and boil it down )

Step 1

Debone and chop up a rotisserie chicken….

Step 2

Cut up onions … don’t fry yet…

Step 3

Instead of using butter or oil to brown the onions we are going to dice up a block of double smoked bacon… wich will not only give is enough grease to fry the onions but add a smoked flavor to the sauce we are putting it in … if things start to stick at the bottom of the pan .. add some butter .. not mich just to coat the pan

Now for the sauce …. super simple!!!

Dump sauce to a pot .. with one diced tomato and 2 cups of merlot red wine

Wait … until you’ve dried up your bacon and onion mixture … once that has fried up… add your mixture to the sauce…

As you can see … no butter needed ..

Next… take your chicken and add it to the pot with your sauce and cook down ( to preference )

Getting rid of things I need and don’t need in the house .. but working on my passions even though others say I shouldn’t! Just a few in my collection

I love the little things that remind me of my family.. just sitting here on the porch drinking JAKOBS coffee .. in our Kaffeekane and Unser milch kuh Lollol

It’s almost time!!!! anyone else excited ?!?
