What to cook for dinner?

I will invite a couple of friends for dinner, and I didn`t know what to cook to make a good impression. I have already bought two bottles of red wine and I found two recipes, simple to make.

I vote for the first one, but I`m presenting both of them to let you the possibility of choice.

1. Chicken with tomatoes and potatoes

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds of boneless chicken thighs

3 plum tomatoes, chopped

1 large potato, peeled and cubed

1 onion

1 garlic clove

1 teaspoon olive oil

salt and black pepper

¾ cup chicken broth

¼ cup fresh basil

Preparation

Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and put them in a large non-stick skillet with olive oil. Let them about 5 minutes, until brown on both sides. Than add the onion and garlic thinly sliced. After 5 minutes, add the tomatoes, potatoes and broth. Reduce the heat, cover and let them cook for 20 minutes. When it’s ready, remove it from the heat and serve with fresh basil.

Bon Appetite!

2.  Beef fried with rice

Ingredients

1 pound beef
3 eggs
3 Tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 cups long grain rice
2 small onions
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar

Preparation

Put the beef in a skillet and cook it in medium heat under no longer pink. In a large bowl, beat eggs and pepper. In another skillet put the olive oil and add the eggs in it. When eggs are completely cooked, remove them and cut into strips. Return the eggs in the pan and add all the other ingredients including rice. Let them cook for 10 minutes in medium heat. Now the meal is ready.

 Bon Appetite!
