CHOCOLATE PEANUT MOLE CHICKEN & ORANGE CILANTRO RICE - Food Photo Shoot

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Happy Monday Steemians!!

How was your weekend?

In my house, Monday means the start of the 'real' week. Meaning, Monday thru Friday are the days that you have to get stuff done and weekends are for play, am I right? So, there's not always time to cook or even think about what to cook.

This dish is so easy, and it's so different than a lot of dishes you may be making, it's great for a Monday!

Side Note: When I started this photo shoot, I did not realize that I had all my settings on my camera set wrong. I spent at least 30 minutes taking photos before I realized it, what a blonde moment!

So, we're suppossed to be talking about Mole, yes? Ok, and it’s pronounced (mo-lay) not (mol) like the underground mammals that destroy your lawn or the ugly growth on someones face that you try so unsuccessfully not to stare at. Mo-LAY, got it? Ok cool.

This recipe is actually my Mom's, of course I tweaked it Gringalicious style ( I never met a recipe I didn't alter). My Mom made her version at least once a month and we always called it Jack Sparrow chicken. That's because she started making it around the time the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie came out. PLUS, eating it makes you feel like you’re somewhere fun, like the Caribbean. I love all the flavors going on with it and I know you will too.
