Рецепт Almond Chicken Bites
A, A! Long time no see! How allyuh goin? I fine well thanks…..Today I have an exquisite almond chicken bites recipe that I learnt while doing some cooking classes. Much credit goes to my mentor for this one and, by the looks of it, you know it is going to taste goooood. Anyway, I’ve been meaning to post, but things get in the way and you have to leave stuff undone or halfway done to attend to more important matters at the time, so I hope you all understand.
But, I’m here, there, everywhere always busy as a bee organising new recipes or working on different approaches to the same ole, same ole trini dishes just to add some pizzazz. So, I’m busy and it looks like there isn’t any stopping in the near future because of the sheer quantity of information on Trinidad and Tobago’s cuisine still to be posted. There’s so much still to do.
Add Pizzazz to Your Sunday Lunch With This Almond Chicken Bites
The almond chicken bites are absolutely wonderful for any occasion. When I made these everyone liked them and wanted the recipe so today I’m pleased to share it on the site. It is simple and straightforward; nothing fancy. Just good ole Trini cooking. Enjoy!
