It all depends on what time I get out of here tonight. If I get out in the next few hours then I'll run, shower, and grab a bite to eat. But if its late, I'll run, shower, eat the bar and hit the rack. I don't like to eat a big meal right before bed time.

I decided to go with bbq chicken, made in the broiler. I lather up chicken breasts and drumsticks with bbq sauce and broil the crap out of them. For sides I have a salad, some corn and two "packs" of zucchini and squash cooked in tin foil packs with salt, pepper and olive oil.

what we are ending up with:

homemade "barbecue" pork (diced pork tenderloins in a homemade BBQ sauce)

homemade mac 'n' cheese (a big fave around our house...one of the Great Foods)

tossed salad

Add 1 cup of cream and 2 cups of stock, bring to a boil

Add the chicken back in, cover, and simmer until cooked (40 - 60 minutes.)

When cooked, remove chicken and veggies. With the stove on high, reduce the sauce a bit. Cut the chicken, assemble with the veggies, pour on some sauce, and serve.

This is my favorite way to have chicken on a cold Winter night.
Richard, this sounds scrumptious - but I would deglaze the pan with some calvados first - yummm

A rather, er, fusion approach tonight.....

Some very yummy ahi shoyu poke, lightly seared and then mixed with some locally-made chowmein noodles.

Accompanied by some homemade black bread and a tangerine from the neighbor's garden.

Finished with chocolate dipped shortbread cookies
