appropos of the prior post : pollo arrosto
we took the dogs, leggy lanky white dog Dought, and shaggy black stuffed toy dog Dot, to the Slick Rock to let the chicken rest / it is now warming up in the oven / gravy is being simmered and the scalloped potato/carrots will be mooshed up as a vehicle for gravy
all the while up on the rocks i thought of how the chicken can be stuffed with any kind of stuffing one likes or simply with chunks of onion, apple, orange, lemon, garlic, herbs for extra flavors and moisture
this chicken is to be a Resource for several other meals to which garlic and so on can be added when wanted
for example the top priority is sliced white meat chicken sandwiches with mayo and salad greens on fresh neo-tuscan boule
garlic olives on the side
some of the chicken, prolly thighs, will be used for chicken/green chile tamales / i will add some sauteed onion and garlic to that as well as cilantro and cumin
there is always chicken and rice / the rice awaits / and this can be fancied up or made into a simple and nourishing soup
after that is nap time / smile
