It was a whirlwind of a Saturday. I had to run into see my GP for a pulmonary test. Nothing horrid, just a routine test or blowing into things and trying not to pass out. Which almost happened twice! Then race home for a zoom call and prepare dinner. Only after the call was over did I think about eating dinner.
I basically made the usual preserved lemon marinade, lemon, garlic, hot peppers, and olive oil. I smeared the tights with this and put them on a sheet pan. I also added some small white potatoes, for Bill, and I put some sweet potatoes on for me. Into the oven it went, and we sat down to our zoom call.
What I Learned From This
1. If you are going to be busy and cannot attend to the cooking process, use a lower oven temp. By the time the call was over, the thighs were just short of shoe leather! Tasty shoe leather, but not what I had hoped for. The potatoes were perfect. Add with the collards and we were set for a great dinner.
2. If you are going to have a drink, made sure that you have prepared everything ahead of time. Trying to clear your head and chop a salad, not a great combo.
