Friday's Dinner
This sort of doesn't count, because it begins with a jar. But, it's what I made, so here it is-
Chicken Biryani
I used Patak's jar Biryani, but I had to use chicken thighs instead of breasts (the thighs were leftover from something I made about a month ago. I froze the remaining raw thighs). I thought it would be too greasy, but it wasn't bad! We ate the chicken with Basmati rice and Bombay Lentils (I think that's what it was called). That was just something that had to be microwaved, but I didn't like it. It had that freeze-dried and didn't cook correctly texture. We also had papadums, which were old and didn't really cook correctly in the microwave. Overall, it wasn't the best meal I've made, but it was ok.
Saturday's Dinner
On Saturday, we went to Dom's in Champaign. We had already tried Manzella's, so I was curious. I have to say, I liked Dom's better! I don't know if I would get the chicken parmesean again (it was good, but I prefer it breaded/fried), but I really liked the overall experience. Sometimes it's nice to go to an older, family-owned restaurant! It reminds me of home. :)
