Thank You Bobby Flay

I'm glad to see Greg is finally getting some meat in his diet. Personally, I'm a fan of the breakfast pizza. No sauce, delicious cheese, usually some bacon and a nice egg or two cracked on top.

Tonight's dinner was actually real simple. I took a couple chicken thighs, rubbed them in a left over dry rub I had from smoking pork ribs and pan fried them in some olive oil. I finally put to use a $2 mandolin I had found to julienne some red potatoes into hash browns and put together a simple side salad of lettuce and a balsamic vinaigrette.

The dry rub gave the chicken an incredible flavor, so much so I have to share the recipe:

Bobby Flay Dry Rub

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
  • 1 tablespoon granulated onion
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon white pepper

I like a little extra spice, so I added about twice as much chili powder and cayenne pepper than the recipe called for. I recommend you try this next time you grill some chicken or pork.
