food-related things that i'm currently obsessing over whether it be places to try, recipes, or food icons.
I spent my lazy Columbus day drooling over Lidia Bastianich making Veal Scallopini so it was only natural that after the gym yesterday, I decided to make a similar dish - Chicken Scallopini. I followed the Turkey Scallopini recipe from the new Gourmet Today cookbook substituting chicken for turkey, omitting the flour dredging to make it somewhat healthier and adding a bit of vermouth to the chicken broth to give the dish a little kick. To add some carbs to the meal, I tossed some al dente linguini in the leftover vermouth/caper sauce and added some sauteed, chopped tomatoes. Such an easy, simple dish for a quick weeknight meal. I think I will add sauteed broccoli next time to round out the meal a bit more, but not bad for my first time.
