Happy New Year!

Can you believe that 2010 is just a few minutes from being over? It's been a great year but I think 2011 will be even better! I have a couple of resolutions for the coming year. One is to organize my home a little better and the other is to get my Etsy up and running. We'll see how long I can stick to it! Lol.

But aside from that, I hope you all have a safe and happy new year!

Cooking: Easy Peasy Chicken Teriyaki

Before I get to the cooking, I just wanted to let you guys know that my laptop bit the dust a few weeks ago. With that being said, I have been without my own computer for about a month now and oh my geezers, does it suck! I have to battle for p.c. time with Pete which leaves me enough time to basically just check my email hence the lack of posts. On a side note, does anyone know where I can get a decent laptop for cheap? lol

But anyways, on to the cooking and sadly it will be without pictures this time around. :o(

This is my easy-peasy Japanese Teriyaki dinner. I love to make on those nights that I just don't feel like cooking anything but still want a good home cooked meal that makes my tummy happy. This should feed about 3-4 people. I cook for two of us and we always plenty of left overs for lunch the next day.

You'll need:

1 lb. raw chicken breast
vegetable oil
1 bottle of Lawry's Teriyaki Marinade (found in the condiment aisle at the grocery store.)
1 bag of Steam Fresh Asian Blend frozen veggies.
your choice of rice to go on the side (I prefer about 2 cups of white Minute Rice since it's done when my chicken is.)

De-bone your chicken if needed and cut it up into 1 inch strips. Heat about a tablespoon of the vegetable oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Toss in the chicken and cook until no longer pink. Add the FROZEN Steam Fresh veggies and cook for about 7 minutes or so until the veggies are no longer frozen. Add the Lawry's Teriyaki Marinade to taste... I use about half of a cup roughly. Heat until hot and tasty. Serve on top of your rice and you're good to go. This literally takes 20 minutes and as an added bonus you only have to dirty up two pans. Yay! :o)



P.S. --

Dear Santa Claus,

I've been really good all year. Can you pretty please bring me a new computer? I'd love you forever!

Love,
Kimberly
