- I will never get it,
you're doing the same thing over and over.
- What is this? (gasping)
- I'm crying. (laughing)
- Today, Rie and I are gonna be playing a little game.
Rie has to cook a dish,
but she has no idea what that dish is.
I have to give her instructions using these recipe cards,
but here's a little catch,
there are a bunch of words on here
that are completely off limits.
Let's see what we're making.
Okay, we're gonna be making creamy chicken piccata.
Alright Rie, come on in.
Are you ready for this?
- I don't know.
- I'm gonna tell you the rules to the game.
Avoid the off-limits words,
no miming while speaking,
the cook can only do as instructed,
and if any rules are broken,
the instructor can only mime the next step.
Let's go play!
Okay, this one's pretty simple.
Bring a large pot of seasoned water to a boil.
- Okay.
- I'm assuming you got this one.
- Yeah, seasoned water, salt, right?
- [Alix] Ding, ding, ding.
- [Rie] So there's two white things,
one's salt, one's sugar,
but this is salt. - Good.
- Just like make sure, it's just, always taste.
- We don't want sugar water.
That's for sure. - Yeah.
I assume it's pasta,
because large pot of water, - Okay.
- seasoned with salt.
So, and also, I wanna use lid,
cause it's like faster the process,
I can just another pan on top of it.
- So crafty, Rie.
I didn't actually technically tell you to do that,
(Rie laughing) but I'll give it to you.
- Okay.
- Okay. Next, prepare the bock, bock, bock!
- Bock, bock, bock? (laughing)
- Bock, bock!
- Chicken!
- Yes. - Okay.
- I feel like I'm pretty good at this.
(buzzer)
- [Producer] You mimed.
- Oh, (beeping).
(laughing) (clapping)
alright, I, by accidentally, mimed that,
so the next card I cannot speak.
- Can I just handcuff her,
make my life easier?
So, chicken.
Okay, let me ask you a question.
How big is the chicken?
Is it cubed, is it..
Why are you flying? (laughing)
Fry it!
Fly...
Cut...
Butterfly cut!
(clapping)
Butterfly cut?
- [Alix] Perfect!
- [Rie] What am I making?
- Place on top of a piece of...
You color, in kindergarten,
- Uh-huh.. - you color on a...
(buzzer)
- [Producer] Uh! - Oh! (beeps)
(laughing) I mimed again!
- [Rie] Does anyone have a string or something,
like I really want to tie her hands.
- So, paper. - Get the paper?
- What do you use for baking?
- [Rie] Baking paper?
- Yeah, so place on top, a piece of...
- Chicken?
- No, the paper. - Paper?
- [Alix] Okay, I can't use words.
- [Rie] Yeah, all the clues should be mime,
I think you're better at miming.
(laughing)
Pound. (pounding)
Good.
I have no idea what I'm making.
Cause you let me boil water,
(pounding) pounding chicken,
but I think pounding chicken means,
I feel like we gonna roll something up?
So I feel like I should go a little thinner.
(pounding)
No, Thicker?
Thinner, thin?
Half inch?
Half, half, half inch?
Half. (laughing)
Half.
I will never get it,
you're doing the same thing over and over.
(slapping) (laughing)
I'm crying.
Say when.
Are you, you gonna lose then.
So, pound until this size.
This thickness.
Okay. (pounding)
Okay, do the hand.
Let me see. (crinkling paper)
(laughing)
Okay, It's good, okay.
- A quarter inch! (laughing)
I was trying to say a half a half.
That was the longest I've ever not spoken.
Season well with salt and..
- [Rie] Pepper!
- There you go.
- I think our water is ready.
Pepper. (cracking pepper)
- Lightly coat each piece of chicken with...
- What is it made of?
- Gluten?
- Gluten, flour!
- Yes! - Okay.
(laughing)
- Next, heat a metal thing...
- Pan! - Uh-huh.
Over medium heat.
- Okay, so let me wash my hands,
before I'm getting pan.
- [Alix] Did I say you can do that?
(laughing)
- [Rie] You mimed it.
Luckily, I already have a pan warmed up.
- Add in, shoot, add in the greasy...
- Oil?
Olive oil? - Mmm-Hmm.
- Okay.
- Wow you're good at this. - How, how much?
- [Alix] Oh, it's all measured out.
- [Rie] Oh, okay.
- Fry the chicken in the pan until it has like a nice tan.
- Golden brown?
Don't gesture, don't do this.
- Now she's telling me what to do!
(laughing)
you need to discard the chicken once cooked.
- Chicken grease? - But don't discard it.
(laughing) - [Rie] Just like...
So once it's become golden brown,
take the chicken out of from the pan?
- Yes, yes. (laughing)
Don't throw it in the trashcan.
(sizzling) Woo!
Pour in the stuff that I drink every weekend.
(laughing) (ding)
- Wine?
(laughing)
- It's a little scary how fast you got that.
- I know you too well.
- Actually, you didn't clarify which type of wine.
- White wine.
- Ding, ding, ding.
- I'm gonna just pour it and turn on the heat,
because it has a lot of oil and it's gonna splatter.
(sizzling)
- It smells really good.
(sizzling) - So how long am I reducing?
(laughing) - Wait, that's the next step,
you said it yourself!
- Hurry up!
- Add in the, one of my favorite foods...
- So vague!
- Stuff that you... - Olive...
- Um, put in a biscuit.
- Stuff you put in...
Butter!
- Next you're going to add in my other favorite food.
- Give me more clue.
- When I'm gonna be making out, I don't eat this.
- Garlic!
(laughing) - Yes.
And the little round things.
- [Rie] Caper.
- Pour in the stuff I used to sell on the sidewalk as a kid.
- Cupcake?
(laughing) Lemonade?
Okay, so, lemon.
- Not lemonade,
but there was one time that I did sell lemon juice actually.
I forgot to put the sugar in.
- Oh my god.
- People were not very happy.
Add in the bock, bock?
- Bock, bock, chicken?
- Juice.
- Chicken juice?
Chicken stock. - Yeah.
(laughing) - Chicken stock.
What's this?
I think it's beef.
- Maybe you gotta smell it.
- Yeah. (splashing)
Chicken stock is reduced, what's next?
- Next, you're gonna stir in the
stuff that comes out of a cow utter.
- Milk! - No.
(laughing) - What?
Heavy milk?
(gasping) Okay.
- Yeah.
- There's two thing look like milk and heavy cream.
- [Alix] Yum.
Um, there's a Star Wars movie called..
- Empire Strikes Back.
- Different one.
(laughing) - Give me another hint.
- Blank of the Jedi.
- Return? - Yes!
(laughing) Return the chicken to the pan.
- Okay.
- [Alix] That was a good one.
- [Rie] Good job, Alix.
- So now, we're going to cook, what am I?
(laughing) - [Rie] Alix.
- I'm a complete...
- Woman?
- I'm just a girl from heaven.
- From heaven?
Angel.
- Cook... - Oh! Angelhair pasta!
- Yes!
Used to be my favorite kind of pasta,
because I always thought I had, kinda like,
angel-like hair.
- [Rie] Look like angel hair.
(laughing)
Pasta's in, for two minute.
What're you eating?
- You don't need these tomatoes, so.
(laughing)
Figured I'd have a little snack.
An appetizer, if you will. (laughing)
- Yeah, do you wanna make a little salad for me?
- We're not done yet, Rie.
Next, you're going to...
Hmm.
- Tell me.
- [Alix] The little things...
- Color?
- Can't say it. (laughing)
- How about... - Leprechauns.
- Oh, green.
Give me more.
- The opposite of cilantro.
- [Rie] Parsley.
Well, I knew it actually.
I just giving you a hard time.
(laughing) - What is this?
Got a little carried away there.
- I still don't know what's this.
- Okay, we have the one final command from the angel.
You have to...
- [Rie] It is one bite.
- Put it all over your face.
- You don't have that power.
- Dang it.
Put it on the thing that's round and you...
- [Rie] I don't know about that.
- have a few in your kitchen.
- Plates.
- I take all the credit for making this delicious.
- I still don't know what's this.
- You don't know what it is?
- [Rie] No.
- It's chicken piccata!
- I learned something today then, thank you!
- [Alix] There's like veal piccata, chicken piccata.
So we've reached the best part of the game.
It's time to eat.
- [Rie] Taste test!
- Now Rie, if this is bad,
you're taking full responsibility.
If this is good, it's all on me.
Okay Rie, Hakuna Piccata.
(laughing) - Dig in!
Cheers. - Oh, wow,
my piece is so much bigger than yours.
(chewing) Mmm!
(clanking) (light electronic music)
That's me miming. (Rie laughing)
- Don't mime.
This recipe's so simple and easy,
when we started, it was kinda bumpy start,
but we made a delicious dish!
- So this recipe is actually live on Tasty,
so if you wanna make this yourself,
go check it out.
I'm sorry I can't be there with you to tell you how.
- High five! (slap)
- Catch you later.

- You don't need to mime, you're cooking!
- I can just like mime, and you say...
