I’ve never understood that phrase. Who wins something and gets a chicken dinner? What kind of contest do you enter that carries that prize? It’s never sounded very enticing to me either. Like oo yay, you won whatever you were doing, so here’s a big pile of chicken. I picture a heaping plate of fried chicken, of which I am not a fan. Maybe that’s why the whole saying is a bit perplexing to me. If I win, I want something good – cash money, bling bling, trophies along those lines. Not a plate of greasy chicken bits. Ew.
But anyway, it is a fitting title for this post because R made teriyaki chicken sliders for dinner last night, the second invention with his new meat grinder. Um, holy awesome!! These were some of the best mini-sandwiches I’ve ever had. They were made of ground chicken breasts, green onions, garlic, ginger, and real soy sauce, topped with cherry horseradish mustard, and served on pretzel dinner rolls.
I’ll just let the picture speak for itself. And yes, I had 3 of them.
There is a blackjack deal at Casino Royale in Vegas that says, “Winner, Winner, Kung Pao Chicken!”. cracks me up every time! and yes, she is asian.
