Yeah the corn ribs is a trip. New for me. Definitely never imagined that kind of dish!

Broken down Costco roasted chicken with some yellow curry powder mix in a frying pan (think improvised chicken shawarma) into a few pitas with cucumber, shredded ice berg and tomatoes. Tahini-ed and hot oil to taste.

Rice pudding and persimmons for dessert.

Sounds like the chicken was not successful crossing the road.

LOL, nope. But at least it wasn't flattened like so many of its brethren in Taiwan.

I made the “marry me chicken” from the NYT Cooking app this evening. It’s chicken with some tomato paste and a bit of heavy crème which makes a nice sauce. Paired with a spinach salad and a storm chaser IPA.

Based on the description, isn't this really just a variation on butter chicken? Or am I missing something?

As it stands from the recipe, it wasn't as heavy on the spices (though I added some hot pepper flakes -- 40,000 heat units -- to the dish to zing it up). But pretty close to butter chicken without any hint of curry, etc.
