Ever cook something different from the...

Well, we have a microwave that my brother got us for Xmas in 1994.. yeah.. pretty old, huh.. lmao. Well, i got some smoked grilled chicken, the health smart ones. It says to put it on a plate, put some water on it, and then plastic wrap it for 6-7 mins on medium. well, my micorwave doesnt have medium, so i just cooked it. it came out too dry! and i remembered how good they were when i ate them years ago. Well, tonight i pondered for a second, got a plate cuz i was craving chicken, then i got some paper towels, put a piece in it, soaked it with water, put it in the microwave on defrost for a min and then cook for 1 1/2 min on high, and it came out so juicy and moist, and tasted soooooooo good... now i'm wanting another one! lol. i'm gonna wait a few hrs though.. they are pretty small though... lol.

I have to tell you, Krystal, that I stopped following the directions a long time ago. I take them as general hints as to how to cook something like what the recipe writer had in mind.

I do change the directions often (lately...) I am going to post what I made for dinner tonight & how I did it LOL. I am gonna post the actual recipe & then post what I did to go against the recipe haha ;o). So yeah I do that.

I almost NEVER follow the directions to the letter.

I need directions no matter what I cook. I would be lost without them.

I can boil water without directions, though. However, to make hot chocolate...help!

Ever cook something different from the directions, and it turns out just right?
