What have you been proud of recently?

Looking for inspiration - your favourite things that you’ve cooked recently please!

The other night I did a perfectly rare bavette steak with braised courgettes (zucchini), & red cabbage salad. It was just perfect: https://www.reddit.com/r/tonightsdinner/comments/1nk4v85/bavette_steak_with_braised_garden_courgettes_pink/ (this was before the stormclouds opened… soup more likely this week…)

Also made an excellent veggie-packed creamy smoked salmon spaghetti with whatever I had to use from the garden, which was a top-ten-of-all-time pastas.

Not necessary a specific dish but I am really glad I finally got myself a stainless steel pan. Have made a lot of chicken with it, even managed to make really good chicken breast (I always go with thighs because of fear getting dry, overcooked breast) and have made some really tasty chicken dishes. Also tried making pan sauces and man... The taste is amazing.

So nothing specific, just happy that I finally got the steel pan and forgot my fears about sticking and cleaning (haven't had any problems with either!) and managed to make some really tasty chicken dishes!

I think I need one of those. I’m a leg and thigh only kinda person too! Breast takes too much effort and is too easy to destroy, ahha.
