Sweet Chili Chicken Wings

I just got married!!! 

Okay, not really "just" but I did, 2 months ago. I am now officially Mrs. Sy. Reg and I tied the knot last February 7. It was a beautiful and memorable wedding - which I will go to more detail in a different post. Now, I want to start blogging again about my kitchen and foodie escapades!

Although busy at the shop, I make it a point to come home early everyday so I can prepare our dinner. Reg is trying to lose weight so we try to eat at home as much as possible.

Yesterday, I forgot to ask our helper to defrost the chicken on time so I wasn't able to marinade this ahead. I had to make do with what I had so I decided to make sweet chili chicken wings! They were very easy to do. 



Here's what I did -

1. Wash the wings and pat them dry with paper towels. Make sure to disinfect everything you use afterwards as chicken contains salmonella.

2. Combine Thai sweet chili sauce with light soy sauce. Pour over the wings and leave for 10 mins.

3. Arrange the wings in a baking dish and bake for 15 minutes at 400F.

4. After 10 minutes, heat your wok with 1 tbsp. of vegetable oil. Add the wings and coat with 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce. Stir-fry until golden brown. Serve with rice!

You can also grill this but I was in a hurry! They turned out really well though. Reg loved them! Let me know how yours turn out!

Hospital Cheat Sheets

Hello mommies! Sorry I have been busy trying to balance spending quality time with my baby, the pastry shop @joaniescupcakes and our newly launched online store, Petit Bébé PH.  Check out our IG and FB pages if you have time, @petitbebeph. 😍 Anyway, a lot as been asking about the hospital lists that I made for my delivery so here they are! As some of you might know, I am quite OC about paperwork and I have no pain tolerance so I really wanted to make sure that my doctors did not miss anything about my medical history. I was also confined 3x during my pregnancy. This is why I wanted to make sure that my list is detailed so we could avoid mistakes. Information Sheet This is the information sheet that I made. I consulted my OB prior to my delivery about the things that will be asked during check in/ labor. The text is RED are things you need to fill out on the way to the hospital as you might not have enough time to print them when you start contracting. Birth Plan ...

Eating at Home

Reg and I have been trying to lose weight to better control our sugar intake. We ate out a lot when I was still pregnant so he gained "pregnancy pounds" as well. Haha! I have been going to the supermarket to buy 3 weeks worth of dinners the past 2 months and I have been making weekly menu plans to help us achieve our goal. Honestly, I have always felt lazy to do this menu because the meats available at the grocery varies every week. I tend to buy what looks good so I can't stick to 1 set of menu come marketing time. First, let's start with the supermarket. We are closer to Unimart Greenhills but I feel that prices there are higher and there are times when their stock delivery is delayed. I always end up not being able to buy everything that I need. In order for this menu planning to succeed, I now go to my trusty Landmark Supermarket in Trinoma. I used to shop there when I was still single but I stopped going when I moved after getting married because I hated the ...

Giving Up

There are things in life that makes you want to give up. Don't get me wrong, I'm not currently depressed. 😅 I was out with my mom the other day and chanced upon a dance store. For some reason, I always try to look for a white tutu even when I don't plan to buy one. You see, when I was in Prep-1, I joined a dance program in school. The teacher told us to bring white tutus and white ballet shoes. My parents and I scoured many SM Department Stores but all we could find were pink tutus and shoes. Remember that this was in the 90's so there were limited malls in Metro Manila. The usual next step is to go back to school and tell my teacher that it was impossible to find one, right? Well, that's what all of my classmates did. My parents? Impossible was (and still is) not in their vocabulary. My mom designed and sewed an all-white ballet ensemble just for me! I was the only one who came to class with what the teacher asked us to bring. Everyone else brought pink. And even ...
