Last night I took some chicken breasts out of a brine/cure that they had been soaking in for just over a week. I sliced them into strips, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and chopped green onion, then dropped them into a skillet with hot olive oil in it. While those were cooking, I washed a big handful of fresh green beans and then added them to another skillet that had sesame oil heated up in it. When the green beans were almost finished cooking, I tossed in a TBS of sesame seeds so they could brown up a bit. An almost gourmet meal and well within my numbers! Hope everyone has a great weekend! I'll be frying fish, hush puppies, and shrimp for ~50 people!!! That's gonna be a will power test!

Your food pictures always look SO good. I do my asparagus just like you did the green beans, so delicious.
Oh no... hush puppies?!?! Good luck with that!

HUSH PUPPIES!!!!! Do you make yours from scratch, or use one of those local classic mixes?

(That's one food I didn't think of missing, and now you've got me contemplating keto versions and what kind of fat to fry them in.)

T8U9 I always use coconut oil, won't burn, & has SO many benefits! :) I buy it by the gallon. (Costco).

How do I get invited to this seafood fry feast? I can bring the deviled eggs, or German potato salad :-)

We'll mix the puppies up from scratch, store bought frozen are terrible, and we haven't found a mix we like yet. The bride uses her grandmother's/aunt's (?) recipe. Jeannie, c'mon down! We eat at 1:30 tomorrow in Sulphur Spings!

My sister was going to move to Sulphur Springs. I wish she had; then the whole family would have been back in Texas.

I didn't know that frozen hush puppies existed. Anathema! And now there are fruit-flavored hush puppies? Well then. I wish I did not know that. --- Is there a way to keep oil from spattering during frying?
