Friday night was the first night I scheduled a repeat recipe since mid-September. I've mentioned this before but, after several months of trying new things, I needed to know that what was for dinner was going to be good - not just look good on paper. Zeb made Blackberry-Barbecued Chicken with Couscous (Williams-Sonoma Pacific Northwest, pg. 48?). The baste is carmelized onions, blackberries, red wine and other things all cooked down and pureed. I could eat the stuff like soup it's so tasty. Zeb didn't grill it though. When he went out to light the grill, he noticed a bunch of feathers. It looked like a bird had exploded. I have my ideas of what happened but it's not really appropriate for a blog on food. Needless to say, we baked the chicken instead. It was missing that added flavor that grilling gives a dish but it was still delicious.
