A few nights ago, Jessica and I decided to put a little extra effort into our meal and come up with something different and fun. The result (above) was amazing. We took chicken, sliced it up and cooked it most of the way through just heating it up in a pan with the olive oil. When it was almost done, we added a sauce made from simply mixing up some reduced-sodium soy sauce and honey. We also threw in some salted roasted cashews to add some crunchy goodness. We kept on low heat for a while until the sauce thickened up and formed almost a glaze. Jessica made a salad, and we collaborated on couscous. The couscous was the pre-seasoned kit deal and all we had to do was add water. I spiced it up a bit by also including fresh basil leaves and feta cheese. It turned out to be really good (I was about 85% percent sure it would, although Jessica had her doubts about the idea of soy sauce mixed with honey at first. She is now a strong believer). I'll keep you posted on our future cooking endevours!
