My Baking Dish will never be the same!!

Greetings to my loyal readers.  Today I have an exciting review about Jamie's Chicken Skewers dish with Amazing Satay Sauce, Fiery Noodle Salad and Fruit & Mint Sugar.

Was it amazing, I hear you ask?  Well, yes, some elements.  The Satay sauce was very very nice and there was lots of it, perhaps too much.  The technique of lining up the chicken breasts and poking the 4 skewers through the lot and then cutting was most interesting and quite a time saver.  Nice one Jamie.

Again the technique of cooking under the grill made for well browned, crunchy looking meat, but a baking dish with burnt  satay sauce that took days of scrubbing!  And to be honest, it wasn't necessary.  The addition of honey is what caused the burnt mess but the satay sauce was so nice, honey just wasn't necessary in my humble opinion and would of saved a lot of cleaning up work.

The noodle salad was a nice accompaniment and the toasted honey cashews added a nice tasty crunch.  I didn't bother with the "Garnishes" as I felt the dish was tasty just as it was.

The desert was an interesting one.  Cut up some fruit and sprinkle it with bashed up mint and sugar.  Ok it was nice I guess, but really not required.  We were so full from the chicken and noodles that eating a pile of chopped up fruit really wasn't what we felt like.

Again this dish could have been completed in the allotted 30 minutes, minus the fruit platter.  An all round tasty dish, but not one to wow your dinner party guests.
