Friday night chilly chicken and beer


I am sure this is not the first time I tell you all how much we all like here our friday evenings. As it is the start of the weekend all of us are relaxed ..........Especially hubby and daughter.
Hubby who has been busy with his work and daughter who has been really busy with her school work.

Friday is one day she don't learn at all, she comes home after 17 hrs and then she have a biscuit or two and juice, and I am the victim as she bables to me abut what has been happening in her class that day ( this is our daily routine when she comes home from school in the evening) and I will be listening to what she is telling me.

It will be about which teacher was grumby, which one was nice, what all arguments they had in class then don't forget the importnat stuff who is with who at the moment.
I am now itself starting to feel the knot in my stomach thinking aobut this is the last school year i will have her as from next september she will be gone to University and I will only see her in weekends.

Then she is off to her violin lessons by Six for a hour, she comeback home and then by eight she is gone again for her youth orchestra rehersals and then she is only back together with her dad by 21:30 hrs.
And the moment I open the door they both want to know what the snack is for the night.

Living here, I can always buy some ready made snacks from the shops, and heat them up in the MW, but for me the home made snacks are far far better, and I prepare something and keep before they come.
So this is something I made for them.


They are simple fried chicken , jazzed up with chilies, soy sauce etc...........
The recipe you can find here in one of my earlier post.

HC, what a delicious way to prepare some chicken. The chilies make it sound scrumptious. Your daughter reminds me of my own daughter in her last year in high school. Now she's away at college but we keep in touch every day through phone calls, emails, texting, and even facebook. They grow up so fast, don't they?

Cynthia said...

Laavanya said...

Oh that looks very tempting and i'm imagining chilli paneer instead. My mom and I were like that.. always talking about what happened that day in the evening. I'm hoping it will be that way with my daughter.. as ofnow, when I ask her, she just says 'not anything' :)

shankari said...

They look crispy on the outside and soft & tender inside!
