Chicken Parmigiana

When making something new, I normally read through a number of recipes to see what are the common ingredients, cooking times, additons people introduce and reviews. And by doing so, and when making the same dish over and over again, you can begin to put you own personal touches without disturbing the original taste. Today, I went by the book. The process of making Chicken Parmigiana was very long. The preperation time is longer than cooking and eating times together.

First Attempt

Promising to commit isn't easy. Especially straight after new year's weekend.

I was tired, bored, home with everyone here feeling the same....then I thought, let me start today, it's only the 2nd (I kind of gave up when I didn't do anything on the 1st Jan). Close to 7 pm I searched through the books I have for something I can make using the very little stuff we had at home, no one was willing to volunteer to go to the supermarket and I definitely wasn't willing to drive either, I found a very simple chicken recipe that didn't require a lot of ingredients, Chicken Arayes Wraps. By reading the method it sounded easy, actually it was, apart from the time-consuming chicken boiling part during which I managed to make my usual Banana Cake (which I got from a Kids Cookbook I was given when I was 11).
