Although I don't usually mention food, this chicken was amazing. It's the meal I ordered on our date night. It was so good we tried to make it ourselves. It wasn't the same of course, but still scrumptious. Even the kids ate it up!
The original: Seasoned chicken breast topped with mushrooms, bacon, and melted cheese. Yummy.
Our variation: Marinated chicken breast topped with mushrooms sauteed in olive oil, bacon, and melted cheddar and monterey jack cheeses. Very good.
We knew we'd never figure out their seasonings, so we tried a marinade. It was too spicy, and we had to scrape it off. Then to counteract the lingering spiciness, Dominic used the only citrus we had in the house: pineapple starfruit juice concentrate. He added a little coffee creamer (milk would work, too), then let it simmer and carmelize before adding the chicken. The toppings were easy and delicious.
The best part was the price. We fed the entire family with 2 side dishes for the same price as my one meal at the restaurant.
