Pan roasted chicken breast, slaw, broccoli and a little avocado.

The sauce on the chicken was made from pan juices, caramelized
shallots, garlic, lemon juice, a little mustard, and a lovely
chile/lemon confit condiment somebody gave me.

I assume that the leftovers are on their way to my house, packed in
dry ice and shipped overnight? Oh! They could show up at any moment!

Piece of chicken,

Looks great to me. I just had a pork chop -- I'd prefer yours. I notice you
use avocado a lot. Is it readily available ripe to you, or do you have to
ripen it. I always have to ripen mine, which I prefer - because one never
knows what's inside a ripe one.

Presentation: quite good.

The avocados we get here are unpredictable usually, but lately we've
found them in netted bags of 5 or 6 and they ripen on the counter
nicely. It's a luxury that's allowed on the South Beach diet, and we
often indulge. The orangish sprinkles on those avocado slices are a
prepared Mexican brand chile and salt blend that I found in a market
over the winter. It makes a nice addition to many fruits and
vegetables. I think it has a little sugar in it, but what the hell.
I don't use that much.

Alas, D has claimed the last one for her lunch salad tomorrow.

BTW, I didn't shoot a picture of tonight's dinner. I was too hungry
to pause between stove and table. It was meatballs made with ground
grass-fed beef in a sauce made from roasted tomatoes, black olives,
olive oil, garlic, herbs de Provence, and a little demi glace. We
also had a huge artichoke (steamed in the microwave -- 5 minutes on
high with about 1/3 cup of water and some lemon juice and olive oil in
the covered bowl) and some roasted brussels sprouts. I made a dipping
sauce for the artichoke leaves from garlic, olive oil, Bufalo chipotle
sauce and mayo.

It would have made a really dumb picture anyhow.

Oh I did. One plate had an astonishing artichoke on it. The other
had two kinds of quasi spherical objects on it, one kind green and the
other kind brownish red.

I should have shot the artichoke come to think of it.
