Game of Thrones: Who Will Serve the Realm? (Part VI)

Okay guys. It’s time for the FINAL episode of Game of Thrones. I can’t even think of anything more anticipated than this so it feels real freaking weird that it’s here.

For those of you who don’t know, I actually started doing pop culture recipes because of Game of Thrones. It started with Lord Varys’ No Bean Chili and Jon Snow Balls. Since then, I have done a freaking million Game of Thrones recipes. It has become my favorite thing to theme. So the creator part of me is very much mourning the end of this show. The fangirl part of me is very excited about the end. The book reader part… don’t get me started on that.

Anyway, let’s move on to our final predictions.

<SPOILERS, DINGUS>

So, this recipe was originally going to be a Dany and Jon themed post. But after last week’s episode, I am full on anti-Dany winning. I even did a Cersei-themed post and I dropped Dany. She has lost my sponsorship. So this week is all Jon Snow. If he doesn’t win the throne, I am going to riot. I don’t CARE if he doesn’t want it, he doesn’t want anything. I’m pretty sure he just wants to go back to Winterfell and play Xbox. Dude, we all do. But it’s time to man up and rule the Seven Kingdoms.

Our final recipe is going to be A Dragon Slumbers in Winterfell. It is a chicken curry that I tried to make as spicy as I can handle. I have a pretty mild tolerance for spice, but I’m not a complete wuss. That being said, if you want to this to be spicier, add more peppers. Obviously.

That’s it. That’s the end. Hope you guys like this recipe and all the others. Time to find a new pop culture thing to fixate on for a bit.

A Dragon Slumbers in Winterfell
3lbs chicken
2 large onions, diced
cilantro
oil

Marinade
1 cup plain greek yogurt
1 tbsp garam masala
1 tbsp ginger paste
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp red chili powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne

Grinders (not Hoagies)
20 dried red chilies
8 cloves of garlic
2 tbsp water

Marinate chicken for a half hour in a freezer bag. You can just dump all the ingredients in the bag, seal and squish.

Meanwhile, grind peppers and garlic in a food processor. Add in water and pulse until you get a paste.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add in onions and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Add in chicken AND marinade. Cover and cook on low for 25-30 minutes. Add in the ground masala mix and cover. Simmer for another 20 minutes.

Serve over rice and top with cilantro. I served it with some raita and chapati and it made a freaking awesome meal.
