Today was a good day to fire up the oven and make some roasted stuff for dinner. Stuff. Commonly known as roast chicken, roasted potatoes, roasted asparagus. Pretty simple but tasty stuff.
For reasons unknown, my photograph didn't make it to my email, and my phone is currently offline, out of gas. But I'm reasonably confident you all know what a roasted chicken, et al looks like.
No fancy recipe. My "trick" to roast chicken to keep it moist is to spray it with butter-flavored cooking spray. Then just simple salt and pepper.
I threw a couple handfuls of red fingerling potatoes into the roasting pan when there was about 50 minutes of roasting time left. Then with about 35 minutes left, I put in a pan in which I'd put asparagus, olive oil, salt, pepper and just a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. They all finished at the same time.
For dessert, earlier in the day I'd sliced strawberries and let them soak all day in a couple spoonfuls of sugar and a glug (scientific term right?) of chambord. Bisquick can take the credit for the shortcakes.
Sometimes simple is so nice and tasty.
