Jon wanted to create a delicious dish for the blog and he definitely did!
Running into the living room, he turned into the Iron Chef Chairman and commentator:
"... and the secret ingredient is chiiiicken... What is Iron Chef Jonathan going to do now.. oh, it looks like he's reaching into the fridge... What has he got there? ... looks like a tomato... yes sir, that is a tomato..."
A man like that will always be able to make me smile!
I had put together an appetizer with basil, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese and balsamic vinaigrette, so we had leftover ingredients at our disposal. Jon added chicken and a little heat to the mix and came up with a delicious dinner for the two of us.
Here it is for you to try!
