Extra-Virgin
There are at least three things I loathe doing at home, and unfortunately, two of of them are related to cooking - cooking itself, and doing the dishes.
BUT, imagine my virgin experience of whipping up my very own meal. Well, I did it, and it wasn't so hard to imagine.
It was a simple Garlic Chicken Aglio Olio; I never really liked tomato-based pasta, and cream-based seems a bit too complicated/messy for a start.
All I did was boil thin spaghetti in a pot of water with few table spoonfuls of extra-virgin olive oil. The chicken was prepared by stir frying strips of chicken breast with garlic, mushrooms and finally topped with freshly torn basil leaves.
Pasta is easy, and I happily gobbled down the whole plate, complete with an unmistakable triumphant grin.
The only thing that could've been done much better was to use thinner strips of chicken breast.
Looks like Leslie shall not hunger in the lonely cold winters of Northern England.
