perhaps i need to not....

....watch so many cooking shows....

i'm preparing my signature dish....Chicken Stuffing Casserole....a family favorite....(except poor Molly---she would cry everytime i served it)....
     boiling water with butter....diced vidalia onions, thinly sliced mushrooms rehydrated, corn off the cob with diced peppers for a little heat....boxed (gasp!) stuffing mix added to the water...then all the vegetables added in...with a creamy mushroom soup, sour cream and greek yogurt (so wanted to say marscapone ---but just because its a cool word) sauce mixed into the stuffing.  Now---for the protein....

i george foreman'd (yes--its a word) a bunch of chicken breasts
yesterday for some lovely romaine chicken with chop salad wraps (topped with a honey mustard dressing).....so today I took out the leftover chicken and diced it....until i picked up this one...very thick...lovely piece of poultry....


WHAT?   WHAT?   WHAT?    WHAT?      WHAT?
I sliced into it to see if what i was seeing was.....

yep---it was UNCOOKED....not done....medium rare....a little pink....

and in my mind...all i could hear...over and over...was Gordon Ramsay screaming at me :
                                                            'ITS RAW!"
(fyi---click on 'its raw!")

i've been chopped.


ps...the romaine chicken wraps were fine...just in case you were worried

I can just picture him throwing it into the trash and pretty much spitting in the person's face. Or Guarnaschelli's disgusted face.
