Thank you so much for the recipe. That sounds delicious. I bet it would make a great Rosh Hashanah dinner.
I’ve brought it to a number of Passover Dinners to good reviews.
But it is great anytime.

Funny you should say that. I googled the recipe to save and almost all of them called Passover chicken.

We enjoyed another excellent dinner at Drew’s Bayshore Bistro in Keyport, NJ, including a crispy crackling skinned pork belly, broiled oysters, BBQ shrimp, crab cakes, mushroom cavatelli with a ramp pest sauce, escargot with Benton’s ham and gorgonzola cheese, Cajun jalapeno and garlic meatballs. It all went great with an excellent Chateauneuf Du Pape and Zinfandel.

A perfect, windless evening for low and slow grilling. Apple-wood smoked tri-tip on the Big Green Egg. Caesar salad with garden romaine, homemade dressing (with anchovies), and warm, garlicky croutons.

That is how I found the Recipe in the first place.

We had a major fail for dinner tonight. I am so bummed. A new recipe from somewhere online that sucked me in for a chicken Florentine lasagna with Alfredo sauce - or something along those lines. Lots of time and a considerable bit of money for the ingredients and I don’t care if I ever see the rest of it again. And if I see it, I won’t eat it. Sadly filled a 9 x 13 baking dish so there is a lot leftover. We don’t screw up too often but I am completely pissed off about it.

It all started with some lasagna noodles I had in the pantry. https://www.stonewallkitchen.com/dw/image/v2/BGFW_PRD/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-swk-catalog/default/dw579ee0d0/images/321625.jpg?sw=1000&sh=1000&sm=fit
The layering of flavors beginning with the chicken, the béchamel sauce, the ricotta - everything was so bland and the no-boil noodles were a total fail. During the whole process I kept telling myself it was going to suck, and I was right.

This was the blankie in Finny’s cage when I picked him up, and they gave it to me as a “familiar scent” for his ride home. I laid it on the couch for his first night, and there it remains. It gets tossed into the dryer on occasion to pull off the cat hair, but otherwise, 7 years later…

You know - what bothers me the most is I didn’t listen to my instinct that told me it wasn’t a good thing. I just had a craving for what it promised.

Sorry it was a flavor fail after all the effort.
One possibility is to see if you can fix a portion with tomato sauce, and turn it into pink pasta.

Shrimp and corn chowder, with bay scallops, red pepper, and arugula. I thought arugula would make a good substitute for spinach or kale, and it almost worked out.

And I just rediscovered my love for inerja. Like true love.
