As it happens sometimes, there are days when you open the fridge to realise that all is left is a couple of odd vegetables. This is what I call an empty fridge challenge. This week I had a couple red onions (actually in a bowl on the kitchen bench), a large capsicum and a few spring onions. I also had some chicken breast filet and a couple carrots. The rest of the ingredients are from the pantry.
What came out is a pissalardiere and a lentils, carrots an chicken dish.
The pissalardiere
I made it in a long tart tin. The traditional recipe calls for brown onions, mine used red onions.
The lentils, chicken and carrot dish
This is pretty simple, boiled black lentils until cooked (but not mushy) as you can see on the photo below.
Then add sliced carrots and chicken which were cooked together. The chicken was previously marinated with soy sauce and honey. Add spring onion to garnish.
