a variation on spaghetti cacio e pepe... less cheese, but toss in Italian sausage cooked to crumbly, and tossed in some of the drippings from the sausage

not fancy but tasty

Nothing major.... polish sausage with pepper and onions, and colcannon...

Both are super easy and nice on a cold night.

Chicken Tiki Masala with saffron rice tonight. I daresay it's the national dish in England.

Big sale on pork loin today, so there's going to be a lot of that on the menu this week. J is going to be home, so quantity matters.

Boneless, skinless chicken thighs marinated in strawberry-fig balsamic and a touch of sesame oil, seasoned with Himalayan salt, cracked pepper, ginger and garlic, and crusted with panko. Boiled small potatoes seasoned with olive oil and thyme. Carrots and green beans. A bottle of Nieto Malbec/Petit Verdot from Argentina.
