There are times in this life where tough choices have to be made. I had one such occasion tonight: What to make for dinner? You know those times when you stair blankly into the fridge, and survey the options. Some eggs, some noodles you made last week, some hot dogs, and some deli meat. nothing inspiring so far. Let's check the freezer. some unidentifiable frozen delights, some shredded hashbrowns, some skinless chicken breasts, and ice cream.... hmmm, nothing really jumping out at me. Then I get an idea. What if I made hashbrowns and eggs, but with an Asian twist? Could be good... Could also be very bad, but what's life if you don't take some chances, right?
So I grab the hashbrowns and chicken from the freezer, and the eggs from the fridge. Now in terms of full disclosure, when I said I had an idea, it really was an idea in its most basic form. In other words... I was winging it. I heat some olive oil in the Wok and throw in two chicken breasts. added some garlic salt, pepper, vinegar, and soy sauce, and let the chicken simmer. added some sriracha hot sauce for a little kick. Once the chicken was done I set it aside on a cutting board to rest and let the juices settle into the meat. I threw the hashbrowns into the wok and let them start working with the marinade from the chicken. Once the hashbrowns were cooked I put them on a plate. I added a little more vinegar, soy sauce, sriracha to the wok and brought it to a simmer. I added some rosemary leaves and ginger. After slicing up the chicken I returned it to the wok. Then I threw in an egg to boil. I removed the chicken and the cooked egg, and placed it on top of the hashbrowns.
I'm not going to lie, it seems really weird, but it was super good.
