Tasty Thai Chicken with Lemon Gastrique
Topping the charts of everything thus far, the lemon gastrique glazed over baked chicken was beyond outstanding; I had to fight for seconds with my boyfriend. Paired with some sautéed mushrooms, this is a dish that will definitely be made again.
I have not heard of gastrique before this, and I'm not quite sure what I will use the rest of this honey like substance for, but it is something that I will make again. Just like the Ronco slogan: 'set it and forget it,' lucky for me this stuff is a cinch to make. With zero stirring, this recipe cooked down to yield about half a pint; which was plenty for the chicken recipe and much, much more.
Next up, the chicken...the 'tasty thai' chicken marinade took 4+ hours, and in my opinion...added little to no additional flavor above and beyond the great, bold flavor of the lemon gastrique. The next time I make this dish, I'm not going to waste the mild ingredients and time on a marinade.
Anyone have a good idea for what to use the remaining lemon gastrique in/for?
