I was excited and a little nervous at the same time. I had never really cooked dinner for 11 people before (maybe 6-8 at most previously) and at the fact that it was chicken, something that if I didn’t get fully cooked, I could literally kill someone…yikes! But I had confidence, and everything turned out great, unless of course my friends are liars ;) I made and demonstrated cooking chicken breast tenderloins in both the Southwest and Garlic and Herb varieties. Everyone agreed that it was quick and easy. We also had mashed potatoes, gravy, and corn. Next time I hope to be able to offer more of a variety, but cooking for 11 people was pretty expensive as it was. I received coupons for 2 of the Sautee Express meal starters for free, but the rest of the stuff I had to buy myself, and the chicken alone was $15!!
It makes me so happy to entertain! I can’t wait till my next “party” opportunity…and I am sure my friends can’t wait either J
