| I'm making dinner tonight... And have no idea what to make. I'm not really good in the kitchen, so I need something that isn't too hard to make, and won't take hours to prepare and cook. Does anyone have any good recipes? I want something healthy too.

| I'm thinking steak, but they I kind of have a taste for something tropical, like coconut shrimp, but my fiance doesn't like seafood. I'll probably make something with chicken though.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Adobo!!!!!! Drool! Just the smell of adobo seasoning makes me crazy. Sometimes, I'll just go in my pantry - open my bag of adobo spice, and take a little whiff - like a bee to honey....

| Hopefully I can make it, I always heard it's really hard but I found a recipe that says it's easy. Wish me luck! If not it's going to be cheddar nuggets from the bar across the street! (cheddar nuggets are my new addiction!)

| I've been cooking for 35 years, and I still don't know what it is! Must not be a "Texas Thing"

| When I read the title of your thread the lst thing that came to my mind was " Can I come over?". I don't like to cook. I hope your dinner was very tasy.

| Adobo is a Filipino dish, you can use chicken, pork, pretty much whatever meat you want and it's served with rice. It's VERY good, my favorite meal actually! I never made it, I'm hoping it will turn out good! We just decided to have pork instead of chicken. I rarely cook so I'm nervous as to how it'll turn out. Rudy's Mom..it's just me and my fiance, but I think the recipe serves more (and it has garlic so Rocky and Bella can't have any, LOL) so your more than welcome to come over! LOL Here's a recipe maybe it'll describe it better. 8 whole chicken legs (about 4 pounds), cut into drumstick and thigh sections 1 1/2 cups distilled white vinegar 3 garlic cloves, crushed 2 bay leaves 1/2 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, crushed lightly 1 cup water 3/4 cup soy sauce 3 tablespoons vegetable oil Chopped scallions, for garnish Accompaniment: Cooked rice In a large kettle combine the chicken, vinegar, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, and 1 cup water, bring the mixture to a boil, and simmer it, covered, for 20 minutes. Add the soy sauce and simmer the mixture, covered, for 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken with tongs to a plate and boil the liquid for 10 minutes, or until it is reduced to about 1 cup. Let the sauce cool, remove the bay leaves, and skim the fat from the surface. In a large skillet heat the oil over high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it saute the chicken, patted dry, in batches, turning it, for 5 minutes, or until it is browned well. Transfer the chicken to a rimmed platter, pour the sauce, heated, over it, and serve the chicken with the rice.
