15 minute Microwave Cheesy Chicken with Chives Recipe

I was supposed to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 4 yesterday but astonishingly both my best friend and I managed to actually sleep through all our gazillion alarms, a new feat even though we are both very lousy early risers; usually the alarms do the trick and wake us up somehow. Magic perhaps?!
I had done something to my hair to get some oomph in it(to put it in a way) because i knew there wouldn't be much else happening. As it turned out the plan was cancelled but I did go out in the evening with my mother(bleh!) and got the ingredients for this recipe. I had very little time so i got some low light photos only. 

Here is how my hair looked-

I actually have poker straight hair


We did go today. Love you Mr.Depp ♥♥♥♥..If only i could actually ever say that to him in person!


Recipe-
Ingredients: 1 large boneless chicken breast(chopped in cubes).mushrooms,chopped onion whole,half of a big tomato,dried chives,sliced carrots,butter,salt. For marinade:fresh yogurt(home-made or store bought),1 cube of sour cream & onion cheese,dash of lime juice,salt,pepper,a table spoon of chives.
Process:Make the marinade and dip the chicken in it and keep in the freezer for 10mins and if you have time you can keep it for an hour in the normal part of the fridge. While the chicken is in the fridge saute the mushrooms in butter along with the onion and tomato and a teaspoon of chives at the end for about 5mins. Steam the carrots for 5 mins or till it is cooked but make sure it does not lose its crunch. Sprinkle some salt on it so that it doesn't taste bland. The main work is done. Now just glaze a microwave-proof bowl/plate with butter and put the marinated chicken in the micro in the micro-grill combo mode at 450W for just 5mins and it is done. Serve up hot with any kind of bread you like.
Tip: To make sure the chicken doesn't lose moisture I covered it very lightly with some butter paper.

  31. I think I'll watch the movie today, since the last three times we've planned to do that just one of my friends had no time or other reasons not to join us so I hope this time it will work out to watch it ^^

    By the way, the recipe sounds really tasty.. Maybe I'll have a try!
