My adaptation of Beef Bourguignon. . . NO Mushrooms ( I don't care for them), didn't have Pearl Onions so I caramelized my own Maui Sweets . I used Diced Tomatoes for some richness and filler, while everything stewed down. 1 Bottle of Cardinal Zinfandel, almost a quart of beef stock, dredged beet(Sirloin tips), all over Redskin Mashed Potatoes. The Garlic and rosemary were enough to where the potatoes were just a substrate for all of the richness.
Brazed the chicken in lemon, infused olive oil. Then deglazed the pan with red wine and reduced it for the sauce. (Before anyone asks this is STORE BOUGHT CHICKEN)
Celebrated my wife's birthday and took her out for a nice quiet dinner this evening with just the two of us.... [/IMG] [/IMG]

Been an easy past couple of days, leftovers and ordered a pizza tonight. . . my favorite combo from a really good local place, Paisanos. They even call it the Jono Combo when I call(they know me well). Pepperoni, Mild Italian sausage, and Ricotta all on a NY style crust. Simple, and DELISH. Going to be doing some cooking next week. Going to do some Korean Style braised pork ribs, TATT style, with white rice, and stir fried veggies(broc, snow peas, and carrots). I will post a recipe for it when the time comes.
