I told you that the sugar would make the difference. Not many people use sugar in their recipes because they think it is a bad thing, but it really does make a huge difference in the taste. Glad to hear that your first batch turned out great. Now you can be more adventurous and try a few different things to change it up. What a bunch here on RCM, eah?
One of my first meals to learn was oven baked chicken. I always get the boneless/skinless chicken brests, because I don't like dealing with the bones. At first I just put some butter on top and a little bit of seasoning and bake it in the open oven for about 30 minutes. Great cheap meal with some mixed veggies. Now I put a whole slew of stuff into an oven casserole dish and season it with some of my favorite things. The whole family just loves it, and it only takes about 90 minutes from prep to serve. Easy meal to throw together in a short time.
Last night I wanted to celebrate with the wife. So I grilled two Filet steaks along with two lobster tails and baked potatos and in 45 minutes we had a superb meal, with a bottle of wine of course. The kids ate leftovers.
