Julie’s perfect parma

Tuesday, July 11th, 2006

Last night I had the honour of eating my first homemade chicken parmigiana at Ben and Julie’s house. Julie (who seems to think she can’t cook… ha!) had gone all out. Ben tells me she’d crumbed the chicken, made the sauce and baked the whole thing herself.

She did an amazing job - perfect sauce/cheese/chicken ratio, a nice crispy crumb, and a beautifully moist chicken breast. And because she served it with salad instead of chips, I didn’t even have to think about my hips too much.

And then she followed it all up with a gingerbread icecream cake. It was great! I’d never had anything like it!

And the amazing thing is that she didn’t even know how much I loved parmas. Just naturally brilliant I guess.

Thanks for a great dinner B & J!
