Last weekend my parents-in-law came over for dinner. My parents were in Penang hence they could not make it.
As usual, I was stressed out with what to cook, especially with poultry dishes. When I had finally decided with my vegetable, tofu and soup dishes, the chicken dish was still left undecided.
It was only upon my MIL's early arrival which prompted me to ask her for an easy recipe. In the end, we did a simple dish called Honey Sesame Grill Chicken.

Here's my dishes for the day:
MENU
Stir fry kailan with oyster sauce
Honey Sesame grill chicken
Stir fry french beans with sea asparagus
Steamed tofu with prawn & mushroom
Lotus root soup
The above is using my MIL's very simple recipe.
Marinade chicken with salt, pepper, honey and oil mixture for 30 minutes.
Pan fry till chicken turns light brown.
Toss some sesame seeds with the chicken.
Serve hot.

This is the first time I steamed the tofu with its ingredients.
Usually the sauce is prepared separately.
I like how the colour mix turned out for this dish.
No scallop but we used sea asparagus :)

I think I cooked a little too much for that day, we ended up having the leftovers for our lunch.
Next personal target - To learn how to estimate correctly. It's usually either too much or too little!
