Final project


My project: Chicken, russian salad and brown rice.

I usually like to have this dish for lunch because it is healthy and easy to make it. I went to a local market where i only find fresh vegetables or fruit, and i have to go to another market to find chicken. The chicken that is selled there is organic, at least it is what they said but i really dont know i just trust the market and producers. In the picture below are some of the ingredients.




For the Chicken
- Flattened chicken fillets
-olive oil
-salt nad comin

Season the fillets on both sides with salt and comin, fry in a bit of olive oil until golden on both sides, then drain on paper towels to remove the excess oil. This is how the chicken looks.



Russian salad
- Beets
- carrots
- peas
- mayonnaise
- salt and comin

Boil the beets, carrots and peas for about 8 minutes, peel and cut them into cubes, then mix the boiled beets, carrots and peas with a bit of mayonnaise, salt and comin.





For mayonnaise
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons of lime juice
- 1 cup of olive oil
- salt and comin.

Put all the ingredients, except the oil, in a blender, blend in a medium speed and add the oil gradually until the mayonnaise gets thick.

This is how the dish looks like and i served with brown rice. I usually cook like this with a lot of vegetables and the cost is not so expensive as it is in a restaurant, in a restaurant this dish cost around 15 dollars for one person, but i spent 10 dollars to cook it at home, for two persons.
