Valentine's Dinner

 
Corn Casserole
Ingredients:
Creamed Corn
Kernel Corn
Shredded Cheese
Cornbread Mix
Sour Cream

I made these for the first time for Valentine's dinner. It was a big risk and a fail. I picked up two cans of kernel instead of one can of creamed. I was so upset and had a meltdown in the kitchen. I hate when the food doesn't come out right! Nevertheless, I tried to improvise and this is what I got. 



Chimichurri Chicken

Ingredients:
Garlic
CIlantro
Lemon
Salt
Pepper
Olive Oil 

This was actually my pride and joy because I marinated this overnight. I rarely cook meat because I don't like touching raw meat. Marinated the chicken in cilantro and lemon. I cooked the chicken on a skillet then finally dumped the chimichurri in at the end to cook in the flavor and made a little sauce with the stuff stuck on the pan. Well, I loved it. It took a lot of effort. Needed some more browning to give it some color.



Red Onions
Nothing special here. Just cut it up and cooked it down with a pinch of sugar. 

Chimichurri
Ingredients:
Garlic cloves
Cilantro
Vinegar
Salt
Pepper

Blend it all together. I refrigerated overnight to let the flavors marinade. Warning: Extremely strong breath from garlic and from the onions possibly. No kissing involved, hahaha!
