[Explored] Bento 755

            Tomato rice on the left side. On the right side there's crispy chicken wings with sweet chili sauce, blanched snap peas, cabbage and mandarin salad, red capsicum with roasted nori, plus some pickled babycorn.

Today's rice was a bit experimental. It was cooked together with leftover chicken poaching liquid as well as three whole cocktail tomatoes that were then gently mashed into it after cooking.

I sometimes get asked how much time it takes to put together a bento like this that features several different dishes, and it honestly isn't very time-consuming if you plan ahead a bit:

My rice cooker has a timer setting, so I prepared that the night before. The finished rice just needed to be packed.

The chicken wings were defrosted and marinated overnight, then baked in the oven while I was taking care of everything else before work today.

Only the cabbage salad was freshly made, the red capsicum dish is straight out of the freezer and was packed while still frozen, the babycorn is from a jar of storebought pickles, and the snap peas were blanched with some extra boiling water from making tea.

The wings took about 20 - 30 minutes to finish baking, and by that time the other food preparation was long finished too. 

(Note that I made a bigger portion of wings than just the ones used for the bento. The rest of them are for tomorrow's dinner!)
