Artichoke Pesto Pasta and Orange Chicken Drumsticks

My official first entry of the blog!

Today's Dinner. Was just me and my daughter. And I made Artichoke pesto pasta and Orange Chicken Drumsticks. The pesto I had already made on the weekend. So decided to make pasta with it. My daughter loves Orange chicken from Panda Express and she wanted a homemade version of it.



Artichoke pesto recipe

Artichoke, basil leaves, pine nuts, Garlic, Olive oil and Water. (I try to make a low fat version. So I omit the parmesan cheese and use just 3 Tbsp of olive oil and add water to achieve the desired consistency). And we use Brown Rice Pasta at home.

Chicken Drumsticks

Marinade has Orange juice, Orange Zest, Soy Sauce, Honey, Chilli Powder and Garlic and salt. Mix all Ingredients. Marinate the Chicken for 30 mins, bake in 425 degrees oven for 30 mins.
