Last month's homeless feeding program was all about chicken! We made 2 different kinds: jerk and teriyaki. Since we cook "iron chef" style, in that we never fully know what fresh ingredients we will get that day, the side items were a bit of a mix. We made some rice, roasted potatoes, salads, garlic bread, and for dessert lemon fruit tarts and jam bars.
It was also a great month because we had a youth group from the Sammamish Hills Lutheran Church who did most of the cooking and serving. Super bunch of kids with a great giving spirit, and fun attitude. Their sous and cooking skills were really good too!
This was our version of Jerk chicken. Flavored with limes, cilantro, and spices, then cooked on a grill.
This is the teriyaki one. This was made with homemade sauce. Our southern chef originally attempted it but it was not quite right, nothing bad about his skills. My sis ended up finishing it. Sometimes it takes an Asian to get the flavors right. :)
The homeless folks love garlic bread. It's usually the simple comfort foods they really enjoy. Turned out the kids love making and eating garlic bread too.
