How did I miss this? I really need to get my head out of the food blog world and into real life a little. Is it weird that most of (ok, all of) my friends are virtual? Don’t answer that.
You would think since I write a food blog I would have had some huge Fat Tuesday feast planned. Maybe something like gumbo or Cajun Shrimp Tacos. Then top the night off with some fresh homemade Beignets. Yeah, that would only happen in my dreams. I wish I was that organized.
Actually, you want to know something? I used to be a really organized person. Not even five months ago, I was a well planned, well organized, albeit crazy women. That all changed when my life became consumed by this here blog. It just kind of took over, in a good way. Maybe? Yes, In a good way!
Anyway, back to Fat Tuesday. We had nothing Cajun, nothing with seafood and honestly nothing all that great. Tuesday’s recipe was a failure that I just spent way too long trying to miraculously fix. Ugh, I hate when this happens. It does not happen too often, but when It does it pretty my just stinks. Literally. Oh, and there was definitely not Beignets. BUMMER.
Now, that I have rambled on, let’s talk about what I really wanted to tell you guys about. This lovely chicken. Does “lovely” make me sound older? This is what I like to call a winner, winner chicken diner. It’s pretty quick, pretty easy and pretty freakin good. Seared chicken with a tangy, but slightly sweet Glazed Balsamic Vinegar Orange sauce with creamy goat cheese polenta. The sauce for this chicken is so good. It is a combo of balsamic reduction (which by itself is lick the spoon clean good) and a sticky orange sauce. It pairs perfectly with Creamy Goat Cheese Polenta that you could honestly just eat bowl after bowl of.
