Gin and Tonic Stir Fry

Possibly because I wanted something to write about yesterday I pushed the boundaries of common sense and basic decency.  Because my kitchen is so understocked with pretty much and items when I was attempting to cook dinner last night I just used whatever I could find in the cupboard along with some shoddy looking chicken thighs that I bought for some reason.  So a fairly bland stir fry was on the cards, the only excitement being that I used the food processorto chop the onion and pepper, this all changed when I got the gin out to prepare a gin and tonic...

The first thought I had was to add some gin, the sauce was looking dull and uneventful, I was confident the gin would maybe change this, potentially for the worse.  I added a few drops and was briefly rewarded with that unpleasant smell of gin.  Thinking that was still boring I then added a fair glug of tonic which produced a hiss from the pan and to my horror everything started foaming in a way that makes you think you're an idiot, thankfully the foam dispersed and I was left with basically no benefits.

I went to sample the food with some concern that I'd screwed myself over and had wasted my time with the awkward chicken thighs.  Thankfully when I tasted a bit of chicken and noodles the only thing I could taste was the excessive levels of fish and soy sauce that I had added.  If anything the gin did nothing and the tonic even less.  The salt overload nearly destroyed me.
