I tried a little something new last night. I marinated my chicken breasts in yogurt, green curry paste, lime juice, garlic, salt, pepper, ginger & honey for a few hours and then put them on the grill with some squash and zucchini. Then made a basic white sauce and seasoned with curry powder, ginger, salt, pepper, garlic. Put it all over pasta. My 3 year old tasted it and decided he wasn’t hungry. My husband and I thought it was pretty okay for something a little different to have once in a while.
My recipe for basic white sauce:
1 Tbsp butter
1 1/2 Tbsp flour
1 cup milk
Melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until smooth. Add a small amount of milk and whisk until smooth. Keep adding milk in small amounts and whisking until all milk is added and sauce has no lumps. Bring to a boil, whisking constantly, and boil for 1 min. From here you can do whatever king of seasoning you like. Add garlic and parm cheese for an “alfredo”. Add cheddar or your other favorite cheese and a touch of dry mustard, garlic, salt & pepper and add to macaroni for mac & cheese. Add ground beef, salt, pepper garlic and serve over toast for SOS. Lots of possibilities.
Your 3 year old and my 8 year old would make fabulous friends! LOL!
I make that white sauce and add a picked Dungeness crab to it. Make some toast ladle on the cream crab and I’m set.
