Chicken with Bratwurst and Noodle Pudding

This was a spectacularly easy meal to make and spectacularly unhealthy. Spectacular!

But honestly, this was a heavy meal and I could see this being served at Wurstfest for a bunch of drunks.  No offense to drunks, they're my favorite people! They find me hilarious and think I'm a great dancer. And by "they" I mean myself. When I'm drunk I think I'm the next Amy Schumer and MJ, r.i.p.

 Chicken with Bratwurst

8 chicken breasts. I used four.

8 bratwurst, with the skin removed. I used four.

2 slightly beaten eggs

2 tbsps water

1 1/2 cups flour mixed with salt, pepper, and paprika

1/2 cup margarine. Margarine is gross, use butter. I don't care what this recipe says! Did you know that margarine is one molecule away from being plastic? And keep in mind, any site debunking this fact is backed by big margarine *adjusts tin foil hat*

1/2 cup dry sherry

Preheat oven to 350. Flatten the chicken breasts with a mallet. Place a sausage on each breast and roll tight. Tie with a string. I didn't do this, I just fried the seam first. Dip the breasts into the beaten egg with water, then dredge with seasoned flour. In a large skillet, brown the stuffed breasts in margarine (BUTTER). Place into a casserole dish, pour drippings from the skillet over the chicken breasts, and add sherry. Cover and bake for an hour.

Noodle Pudding

1 pound wide egg noodles, cooked according to package. I used one 16 oz package.

1/2 cup melted butter

5 eggs, well beaten. I used two because, really? FIVE EGGS?

2 cups sour cream

S&P to taste

1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese

1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Butter a casserole dish. In a bowl, toss the noodles with butter. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with sour cream until very smooth. Fold in the cheese. Pour over the noodles, toss, and put into the casserole dish. Bake for 45-50 minutes until firm or golden brown.

If I had the Photoshop skills, I'd insert a Doge meme here. Just fyi

Wow. So much fry. 

No fooling, so.much.fry. I could feel the oil seeping into my pores when frying the chick-wurst (no one take that name, it's mine!). And all that meat! No one needs all that meat! The chick-wurst is such a great example of privilege. I don't mean to get all political here but seriously! When you are in a position to stuff one meat with another meat for a fun meal, you don't have real problems in life. Just sayin'...

The egg noodles, regardless of the fact that mine were 'yolk free' were super yum! And let's go back to that 'yolk free' mess. I didn't realize I bought basically non-egg noodles until I was making this meal, I just grabbed whatever bags I saw. Had I been paying attention, I never would have done that (story of my life). Yolk free egg noodles are like gluten free bread or tofurkey, it ain't right! I get why we have these alternatives but the fact that they exist makes me so sad. 

This meal was so filling, I drank some Oban Scotch with the hopes that it would burn the food out of me. It worked, a little. 

Thank goodness the next week is Myanmar. My body needs some roughage
