Ingredients: Raw Meat or Raw Bird Drumstick, Any Seafood
Description: "A filling dish made by cooking fresh seafood and meat together."
Another 3-tier meal type like the spiced skewer, so we start with the basic quality.. I'll use chicken drumsticks and some leftover white fish. What was it... hake or something? I'll save the salmon for the next recipe.
Pan-frying drumsticks feels so weird to me... like.. I always grill or bake them? I'll need to cook them slowly to make sure they cook all the way through. I can add a bit of water if they start to brown too fast and put on a lid for most of the time.
but first! We can put in most of the seasoning. I've gone for a simple mediterranian-style thing, I have some salt, paprika, and some kinda potato seasoning mix I dunno. Seems like it has garlic powder. And a big squeeze of lemon juice!
After a good slow while when the chicken looks almost cooked, I add the fish fillet.
Foolishly I insisted on using tongs because of the drumstick, and my dexterity wasnt enough to stop me breaking up the fish every time i tried to flip it. Well whatever. At the end I sprinkle on a bit of fresh thyme leaves as well.

Not bad at all! The lemon flavour was nice and strong and you could taste the thyme at the end. The chicken and fish weren't even that different, both quite meaty and flaky. The drumsticks were perfectly cooked, and because its a simple dish you can just pick the chicken up and eat it off the bone. Filling? yeah I guess so.
