The next thing I cooked was chicken stew with pesto bread and olives. I got it from the same recipe book as I got the lamb chops one from. I took all the skin off the chicken and fried them golden brown. Then I made the tomato sauce which was basically chopped tomato with salt, peppper and a little sugar. Then I added the olives and the chicken to the sauce. Then I cooked it in the oven for about an hour.
Then I did something I saw Hugh from River Cottage do which was pesto in bread. I ground some pine nuts and garlic. Then some basil leaves. Then I grated some parmesan and at the same time, my finger! I added the parmesan and some olive oil to the mixture and stirred it.
This is what it looks like
I cooked some pasta to go with it and it was delicious at the end!!!!!!

Wow! Looks amazing it really does! Very rustic cooking. I think I might look into getting the silver spoon for myself as I like cooking for my family too. I'll look forward to seeing the meatballs!
