1 pound boneless chicken to make two servings? That's a big serving of meat.

I like mine somewhere in between. Oh, I also liked it wrapped around a date stuffed with goat cheese. Or a jalapeno stuffed with cheese. Um. I like my bacon with cheese!

Apartment Therapy's The Kitchen has a last minute Thanksgiving menu for four, with chicken as the poultry entree. I'd throw a green salad or a green vegetable in there, but it's a moderate scale and hits several signature flavors.

There's also q&a that links to several smaller scaled recipes.

They're a small roaster in Astoria, Ore. I mail order it to get their coffees in Arkansas.

I'm hooked on the Clatsop Spit, but it may be too dark for you. Every coffee I've had of theirs--whether brewed myself or in a retail setting--has been delicious.

Deviled eggs. Most people like them, and even though they're easy to make, people consider them fiddly or difficult.

I've been eating them all of my life! They were always on the Toot's menu in Murfreesboro, TN. Best ones in Orlando are at Jocakamo's New Orleans Kitchen!

Side note: I only like the chips. I've had the fried spears several times and they miss out on the crunch factor and tend to get soggy quickly.

yum. had my first fried pickle in Yazoo City, MS a year ago... they are awesome. Ill never order them up north or at a chain. i loved what i ate down in MS! i learned that deep-fried catfish is good for your soul and palate! thank you MS!

I grew up in Memphis and was introduced to Dyer's while in college back in the late 70's. Since serious academia was hand in hand with prolific dopesmoking, a Dyer's visit could take the edge off the munchies like nothing else (except maybe a throbbing Broadway Pizza). It was in the tiny shack on Cleveland, and the skillet of grease sat there at the front, bubbling like a tar pit, supposedly unchanged since 1912. The big deal was the double double, which was always nearly dunked in the grease, bun and all, unless you stopped them from doing it.

On many afternoons, the place was patronized by some of the local Memphis wrestlers like Professor Tanaka and Tojo Yamamoto, who would put away a couple of triple triples and a six pack of Schlitz, then they'd get in the Professor's bigass Lincoln and go to their match up the road.

I remember their onion was the hottest onion I've ever had, but it was perfect for these burgers. they were remarkably non-greasy, very flavorful. The new places may have co-opted the history, but they can't stand up to the original.

This recipe is great--very quick and easy to prepare and the taste is outstanding. I used 1/2 the recommended sugar and it really turned out perfect, using the whole amount recommended might be too sweet. This is one of my my successful forays into SE asian food, and will remain in my recipe book for years to come.

In regards to the fish sauce, this was my first time. I did a little web research and found a concensus amongst "those who know" more than I do and they suggested Tra Chang brand. $1.59 at local asian grocery. You can also find the Thai chilis at any asian grocer as well.

And yes, this is way more than 2 servings with 1 pound of meat. Last me about 4 servings. Give it a try.
