First meal at home after almost a week away.
Bit of a mish mosh because I’m a zombie after a redeye, a lunch and other meetings, and badly timed nap. But delicious anyway.
Started with fennel salad from the last of the fennel bulbs I bought almost a month ago and have lasted like champs. Cider vinegar, lemon, honey dressing and shaved aged cheddar.
Then pan-cooked chicken thighs seasoned simply with salt, peper, and garlic powder, rendered very slowly skin side down until the chicken was fully cooked and the skin was golden, paper thin, and crisp.
Finally a frozen jumeokbap (korean cousin of japanese onigiri that is more heavily seasoned) that I seared in the same pan as the chicken to get the outside nice and crisp.
Good to be home, even if briefly.
