Mouthgasmic Chicken

Yeah, you heard me. It's been almost two weeks now since we made this stuff (right before my little depressive episode which prevented me from caring about posting about this at the time), but I had to share pictures of the meal a friend made (with minimal assistance from yours truly) which was quite nearly mouthgasmic and the dessert from Fran's cookbook, Pure Chocolate, we made to accompany it, which was also quite happy-making. When I took the first few bites of the chicken, it was so good I couldn't help but grin. I've told some of you about it, so I thought I'd finally get around to posting the pics:

Fruit Trio Cous Cous: with toasted almonds, italian parsley, and dried apricots, tart cherries, and blueberries.

Roasted Baby Asparagus: with fresh crushed garlic and lemon.

Olive Oil Roasted Chicken: with a red onion balsamic vinegar reduction with raspberry and apricot preserves and toasted almonds.



Marquis au chocolate: basically a frozen dark chocolate mousse with homemade whipped cream.
