Recipe #7: Chicken with red-wine vinegar and tomato (which was actually white wine vinegar)


Well this recipe turned out quite different to how it could of turned out if I followed the recipe more correctly!
There were a few ingredients I didn't have and seeing as I have a million assignments for uni, I figured I don't have much time to go to the shops...also not much time now as must get stuck into uni work so I will make this quick!
So I had no red-wine vinegar, so used white-wine vinegar instead which seems to work fine, although I can't compare seeing as I haven't tried the real recipe! I also had no shallots so used spring onion and brown onion instead, which worked well! I LOVED the chunks of garlic! really yummmm!
I also added some sultanas which became massive and juicy and burst in your mouth! Added sultanas to saucy dishes has became my new obsession! I cooked the dish a little differently..in the oven for about an hour after browning the chicken with some seasoned flour..
So I sort of modified the recipe a little..but isn't that what we are suppose to do? Use our creativity and all that!
It turned out well..the vinegar was quite a strong flavour and a little overpowering..maybe using the right one would of helped! hehe
Overall, a yummy dish on a windy cold lonely Autumn night!
