The BF tried to go back to work today but only lasted a few hours........he sprained his right ankle/foot very badly a week and a half ago and is in a boot. The fact that he has to drive around all day and be on his feet isn't the best mix.
BUT........since he was home early, he did manage to make a venison chili in the crock pot that was soooo good! I am not sure what he did for the whole thing, but I do know he added some cinnamon to it to give it a sweeter, Cincinnati chili taste to it and it worked! It also had black beans, northern white beans, green bell pepper, garlic, onion, tomato paste, tomatoes, chicken stock and jalapenoes in it. Topped it off with chopped cilantro, sour cream, and chedder cheese and made corn muffins on the side.
Got to go get the brownies I made him to say "thanks" out of the oven!
EDIT: Before we got together two and a half years ago, I never had venison or any time of "game" meat. Gotta say I really like it - so if you have never tried it and have no objection to eating venison I say give it a try!! I also said I could never see myself dating a guy that hunts but guess love makes you do crazy things!!

Tonight will be All Season Broiled Chicken, peas in the pod and whipped potatoes. Yum!
All Season Broiled/Grilled Chicken
1.5 c. chili sauce
3/4 c. red wine vinegar
1.5 Tbsp. prepared horseradish
2 small cloves garlic, halved
1 tsp. salt
4 bone in chicken breasts
Mix chili sauce, vinegar, horseradish, garlic and salt in a bowl. Reserve 1/2 of the marinade. Add chicken to bowl and turn to coat. Cover; marinate in refrigerator for about 5 minutes.
Preheat grill or broiler. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade in bowl. Place chicken on grill or on broiler pan.
Grill or broil chicken, turning and basting frequently with half the reserved marinade, until juices run clear when meat is pierced with a knife, about 30 minutes.
Heat remaining reserved marinade in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally. Serve hot alongside chicken.

Here is the recipie I use, it's Giada De Laurentiis version:
1 pound large shrimp, peeled, deveined
1 teaspoon salt, plus additional as needed
1 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons
1 medium onion, sliced
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup dry white wine
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
3 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
3 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
Toss the shrimp in a medium bowl with 1 teaspoon of salt and red pepper flakes. Heat the 3 tablespoons oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute for about a minute, toss, and continue cooking until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a large plate; set aside. Add the onion to the same skillet, adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan, if necessary, and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juices, wine, garlic, and oregano. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Return the shrimp and any accumulated juices to the tomato mixture; toss to coat, and cook for about a minute so the flavors meld together. Stir in the parsley and basil. Season with more salt, to taste, and serve.
In place of the diced tomatoes I like to use whole tomatoes and cut them myself.
