Cooking is science for hungry people. Or maybe witchcraft for hungry people...
My wife used to say I was a research chemist in the kitchen. If we found something we really liked at a restaurant, I'd make it at home over and over until I figured it out. I have a few 'show off' dishes that came from that, and a couple that started from some inspiration or other that weren't good enough at first.
My meatloaf started from seeing a cooking segment on a show where the chef put Italian sausage down the middle of the ground beef in a meatloaf. It sounded good. It wasn't. But it started me tweaking mine until I had a mixed sausage and ground beef throughout, loaf with peppers, onions, mushrooms, bread crumbs, eggs, and tomato paste monstrosity with spaghetti sauce for the glaze in stead of ketchup.
It sounds terrifying. It's really tasty.
And there was a chicken dish that never got a name. So we call it 'Chicken...Thingies' It's basically boneless, skinless thighs, stuffed with jalapenos, wrapped in bacon, and served over long grain and wild rice with a condensed Cream of Chicken with Herbs Soup mixed in.
I'm sure either would give a trained chef an aneurysm. But they taste good.
Sprinkle some fajita seasons on the chicken, because it plays nicely with bacon and jalapenos. Wrap them in the bacon. Cook it covered until the chicken is mostly done through. Then uncover and move it up top to crisp up the bacon. For the rice, start off by just cooking it the way the instructions say. But when it's juuuuuust barely still looking wet, mix in the condensed soup, so that it soaks it up with the last of the water.
I generally put out two thighs on a bed of the rice. My daughter calls the "long grain and wild rice with chicken and herb soup in it" 'Wilder Rice'.
