Totally got the cooking bug tonight and made a few things. After making dinner for Shane & Rocco I came up with something of my own. I used lean ground dark thigh chicken meat again. But didn't make tacos this time. I started off cooking yellow onions with salt & pepper, then adding the chicken. When the chicken started getting some color I added bacon. I had cooked the bacon in the oven, basically well done/crispy/almost severely burnt. The biggest accomplishment here was making my own BBQ sauce. I found a simple recipe online and made some minor changes and one gamble. I used ketchup, sugar, worcestershire sauce, brown rice vinegar, hot sauce, garlic, mustard, salt, and of course the gamble- semi-sweet chocolate chips! I put all the ingredients on the stovetop over medium heat for about 10 mins. I added the chocolate chips towards the end. When the chicken was almost done I added the BBQ sauce to it. I put the chicken on top of wheat toast, and also roasted sweet potatoes to go with. Wow this was really great! The sauce was so sweet & rich, I will definitely make this sauce again. I'm proud of myself for it.
