Fun weekend!

Well this weekend was a little more exciting than most for me. I got chance to get in the kitchen with a fellow Culinarian and cook side by side. Chef Jose, a friend of the family, came to visit us this weekend from Puerto Rico, and he had heard rumor of my culinary curiosity and asked me to join him in the kitchen. It was a restaurant kitchen or anything, it was my own, but we made seem professional with all of our fast movements and roaring flames coming from the skillets. We didn't make anything too fancy, we ending up making Parmesan crusted chicken with mash potatoes. This meal is very simple but if plated well can look very profession, on top of that it is delicious. To make this meal you will need boneless chicken breast, seasoned flour, egg, and of course parmesan cheese. First you take the chicken and wash it of course, then you take your chicken and roll it in seasoned flour (which all season flour is, is flour and whatever seasoning you want and mixed together) and then dip it in the bated, and finally breaded with grated parmesan. Then as your breading the others, have a skillet on the stove top just lightly drizzled with oil screaming hot, and also preheat the oven at 500 degrees. After you have a couple breaded, start dropping them into the screaming hot skillet just until the cheese has browned. Then pop them into the 500 degree oven for about 10 minutes to finish them off. The potatoes are very simple to make, you can even buy instant potatoes. But if you want to know how to make them just ask!
