Food Thoughts

If organic farming is the natural way, shouldn't organic produce just be called "produce" and make the pesticide-laden stuff take the burden of an adjective? ~Ymber Delecto

Slow Cooker Chicken

Came home tonight after a long day at work to our sweet and sour chicken thighs.  The dish turned out well.  I will say that it needed a bit more salt.  Also, if you’re going to make this in the slow cooker, pull all skin off of your chicken thighs.  I knew enough to remove a large amount of skin but wanted some left for flavor.  I had to skim off a bit of fat at the top of the liquid before we ate.

Thoughts for improving in the future would be to add more of the following:

Salt, pepper, cinnamon, lemon (would add zest and juice next time).  To make a truly one pot meal, I would add potatoes.  We served the chicken and vegetables today over mashed potatoes.

See the recipe for Sweet & Sour Chicken Thighs with Carrots in the next post below.
