This is the day that all is washed away
I leave behind all that I will never find
I take with me only the precious memories
I travel light on my journey for there is nothing that a satchel will hold
For my gold and my silver is worthless to those who would be so bold
My treasure is not that of metal and rock
Take stock, take stock
My treasure is found in my heart
-Catherine
Ingredients:
2 ½ lbs. boneless chicken breast – cut into strips
For the Marinade:
1 ½ inch piece of fresh ginger – chopped
4 cloves of garlic chopped
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. black pepper
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ tsp. ground turmeric
½ tsp. ground curry powder
Place all of the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl; add the chicken cover and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour or more.
Heat a large griddle or frying pan and place the chicken strips on the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan. When the chicken is golden on one side flip and continue to cook on the other side.
The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the chicken slices.
For the Asparagus:
Ingredients:
1 lb. of fresh asparagus – hard tips cut off
Juice of ½ lemon
2 tablespoons of olive oil
3 cloves of garlic – chopped
¼ tsp. red pepper flakes
½ tsp. salt
½ cup of water
Heat a large frying pan with the olive oil and garlic. When the garlic is fragrant add the cleaned asparagus and sauté on low.
When the asparagus become slightly golden flip and let them become golden on the other side. When this is achieved; add the lemon juice, water, salt and red pepper flakes. Simmer for another minute or two.
Enjoy with Love,
Catherine

Catherine, This is the perfect meal for my low carb dietary efforts. While I'm not totally cutting out the carbs, any meal that delivers a flavor punch with minimal or zero carbs is a winner in my book! Very nice indeed... Thanks and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Dear Catherine, Wonderful recipes...I just purchased asparagus, and I am always looking for new ways to prepare them. Now I have found a new way. I like the Asian chicken Marinade. The flavors must be great together. A perfect combo, chicken and asparagus. I also love your words before you post, they are lovely. Thanks for sharing these recipes. Blessings on this day and the rest of the week...Dottie 🙂
