Vietnamese Lemongrass and Chile Chicken

So I didn't realize I needed to brine the chicken, in the mixture so I called an audible. So instead of soaking the chicken, I added the soaking liquid to the rice. The chicken preparation was only modified a little after that. Shannon didn't even realize that this was a "screw up" dinner and not just what was planned.

There was a bit missing in the spiciness, but overall still ended up really good.

Pounded chicken thighs sandwich (Wild Yeast Bakery Des Moines bread (sourdough or brioche))

Simple and good. We had this on the honey brioche. A simple sandwich on good bread. Good stuffs.

Grilled Cheese (Wild Yeast Bakery Des Moines bread (honey-brioche))

This ended up going on the sourdough, because for lunch I used the second half of the loaf to make a ham sandwich for lunch for the both of us. So I used some good cheese from the cheese shop...which I can't recall right now, some Prosciutto Americano, and some of the Cheese Shop's pepper jam and came up with these wonderful sandwiches, helped by the wonderful bread they were on. Good stuffs.

Spicy Carrot Sandwiches (Wild Yeast Bakery Des Moines bread (sourdough))

I did forget the yogurt. We didn't have yogurt, but I don't think that the flavored yogurt would've gone well on the sandwich. Be that as it may, the sourdough has quickly become my favorite. Admittedly it is fairly easy to do, since most available sourdough the bread is not sour, nor is it actually quality bread. But even compared to really good sourdoughs this has come up aces. Anyways, even missing the sour cream, which does add to the sandwich, this was really good.

Ham and Cheese Puff Pastry
