1 1/2 lb. chicken breast (butterflied)
3 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken stock or dry white wine
Lots of garlic
2 tbsp. butter
1/4 cup brined capers
4 tbsp. olive oil
1/3 cup flour
Salt and pepper
2 tbsp. Parmesan
Mix flour, salt, pepper, and Parmesan. Heat olive oil in a frying pan on a low heat. After rinsing chicken, thoroughly coat with flour mixture, then brown chicken and set aside. In the same pan add capers and garlic. Add lemon juice, chicken broth and butter. Allow to reduce by half. Serve chicken with the sauce poured over.
Get creative and add other veggies like mushrooms or peppers to sauce with the capers and allow to cook before adding broth.

My all-time favorite meal to prepare is chili. It’s one of the first things I learned how to cook. I love chili because there are so many different things to put in it. Sometimes I like to make it spicy, and sometimes I like to add mangoes, adding a little sweetness. It’s such a comfort food and it’s easy to share with friends. I love chili loaded with meat and cheese.
The best part of cooking it is getting to taste what you've created. I love to cook with Raph and friends. I love it so much when Raph cooks for me, he is a chef.
Love is a never ending excitement for something. With Raph, it’s when we can be in a room together, say nothing and be so comfortable just co existing. It’s a feeling that fills my chest and shoots into my brain, then feeling his embrace through my whole body. It is the best feeling I have ever felt.
I am not sure if I have a song I directly connect with love or the way love makes me feel. But when we were starting to get to know each other he made me the most delicious dinner. It was fresh scallops in a homemade red curry sauce served over brown rice with stir fried vegetables. After dinner we drank wine and listened to music. The song, “Brand New Start,” by Little Joy came on and I made him dance with me. Since then we have had a connection to that song and every time I think of that moment I can’t help but smile. Dancing has been special to us, its how we met.
