Being the kind of person who can't take "no" for an answer, I had to come to terms with the undone anniversary chicken. Or did I? The light bulb come on and I decided I could rescue those bird thighs by repurposing them into Dijon Baked Chicken. Here's how I did it.
First, I scraped off the now-soggy coating (since it was refrigerated), squirted and spread some Dijonnaise over it followed by some panko crumbs. I baked it on nonstick foil for 25 minutes in a 350 oven. No, I didn't expect perfection but a done piece of chicken with a nice topping.
Along side of the chicken, the Macaroni Salad that I tested was a perfect partner to the chicken. That and a big-fat green salad made for a fine meal.
The chicken has now been put to sleep and so shall I.
The case of the undone chicken is now closed.
