Fried Chicken and Organic Purple Japanese Sweet Potatoes

Rub butter all over the sweet potatoes, pierce them several times with a fork, and then wrap in foil with the shiny side facing in. Bake for 50 minutes on 400 degrees. Best Fried Chicken recipe is from Alton Brown. Always serve with a salad and only use real maple syrup on the sweet potatoes and a sprinkle of white pepper.

Samantha's Ribs, Rice with Peas, Salad, and Mayer Bros. Apple Cider

I put my daughter Samantha in charge of making dinner the other night. I put out all the ingredients, pre-heated the oven, and told her to add whatever she wanted to the bowl in whatever quantity she wanted and to then drench the ribs from Lorigo Meating Place and put them into the oven, covered with foil.

She put in Mayer Bros. Apple Cider, white vinegar, minced garlic, brown sugar, Annie's Organic Ketchup, chili powder, salt, pepper and pepper flakes. The meat was tasty, juicy, succulent even, with just the right amount of garlic. I prepped the basmati rice and peas. But this was basically all Sam's doing. Bravo my little chef!
