I owe you all a big apology. I haven't been blogging the last fortnight because I've been a little distracted with work and by our second anniversary celebrations!
About a month ago Rob and I decided to plan surprises for each other to celebrate so on Sunday when I got home from work, Rob told me to pack my bags and surprised me with a trip to Paris for a couple of days!

I'm surprising Rob tomorrow, but it won't be anywhere near as exciting as Paris!!!!
For now though I'm cutting it tight on posting this month's Taste and Create entry. I was paired with
In the Garden of Eatin' - a fun food blog filled with recipes for every day healthy cooking on a budget.
I decided to make
twice the spice chicken. A quick tasty dinner for sure!
Twice the Spice Chicken
Source: In the Garden of Eatin'
Ingredients 1.5 lbs Chicken
(I used diced chicken breast) 1/3 cup Canola Oil
(I used rapeseed oil) 1/2 Tbsp Chili Powder
1/4 Tbsp Onion Powder
1/4 Tbsp Season Salt
Spicy Garlic Wing Sauce
(I've never heard of this before, so used Jerk/BBQ sauce)
Recipe 1. Heat grill pan (or normal pan) to medium high heat.
2. In a large bowl combine oil, chili powder, onion powder and season salt (this is your first spicy layer). Toss chicken to coat.
3. Transfer chicken to the grill pan and cook through.
4. When the chicken is done cooking stir in the sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes.
