You can start ordering anytime...

We are ready to go - and in fact are eager for your suggestions on what you would like in your freezer. We have the items listed in the last blog and Chef is busy testing lasagne's and playing with his new cryovac machine. Here's something you might like... we will be assembling meals ...sealing them... and with a snip of your scissors and a micro wave you can have a Moose Mountain Meal in the comfort of your own home! Great for you ranchers who are a loss on what to eat on those nights in the field!

The Moose Mountain is ready to discuss your Christmas function. We have taken a few calls already so phone and reserve your date.

We are announcing Moose Mountain Breakfast Meetings. For a minimum of 10 people we will supply a BEAUTIFUL continental breakfast, complete with tea, coffee, juice, milk, GST, Grat & use of the room for $20 per person.
Also... Moose Mountain Lunches...real, homemade (not Bridgebrand!) soup, 2 varieties of sandwiches on homemade bread, non alcoholic bevie, GST, Grat & use of room for $20 per person - a minimum of 10.

And now the recipe...
Chicken in Lemon & Garlic
4 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts
5 T olive oil
1 onion finely chopped
6 garlic cloves finely chopped
2 lemons - zest & juice
4 T chopped, fresh Italian parsley
Salt & pepper
lemon wedges & crusty bread to serve

Method:
Slice chicken breast width wise into thin slices. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy bottom skillet. Add onion & cook for 5 minutes or until softened but not brown. Add garlic cook for 30 seconds then add chicken and cook gently for 5 - 10 minutes until all ingredients are lightly browned. Add the grated lemon grind & juice scrapping and stirring all the bits from the bottom of the skillet. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in the parsley and season with salt & pepper. Serve on warm platter with lemon wedges and chunks of crusty bread. Enjoy!

In case you think that Chef could get a bit crazy with his new cryovac machine - have no fear - the taste will still be there. Not at all like this...

On airplane food:
"The shiny stuff is tomatoes.
The salad lies in a group.
The curly stuff is potatoes, the stuff that moves is soup.
Anything that is white is sweet.
Anything that is brown is meat.
Anything that is gray, don't eat."
-Stephen Sondheim, "Do I Hear a Waltz?" 1965.

All for now! See you at the Moose this week starting tomorrow thru Sunday at 5:00 PM!

CA & Chef Stephen
