Be grateful that someone thought enough about me to make me diner. And perhaps casually suggest we join a cooking class together.

I mean if the other partner goes to work and the other is at home, it's fair to expect the stay at home one to take on the burden of most housework imo.

Full day of work and then your partner gives you shit about not cooking your own food? Fucking hell

Where do you see it stated that she doesn't work? Maybe that's the best she can manage after a long day of work herself

Where did you see that she does work? We're all going on supposition here. She doesn't work, fair to expect housework. She also works, fair to expect sharing the housework imo

Maybe she goes into work earlier than he does, maybe she works from home, maybe she does shift work. There is nothing "baked in" to this scenario.

No, your bias leans towards this. Careful, your misogyny is showing.

It's the complete and total lack of seasoning, apart from what appears to be pepper on the chicken. Also the fact that the concept of "crunch", or any form of texture, seems to be a foreign concept.

As a former Brit, we like crunch in sandwiches by adding potato chips to them.

Potatoes came from Peru like 500 years ago, thank God. Brits are not alone in this tbh, have you ever seen German food? 🤷

But Brits are famous for their fish & chips and the chips in that are crunchy

You are clearly not familiar with how much Canadians are into Kraft dinner.

Jokes aside, it all depends on the context, what are their skills? What is the thought behind it. How much money is there around?Does it taste good?

If you know she cooks well then this may be bad. If she is absolutely new, this may even be a sweet gesture.

Thank her and tell her how much i appreciate her? Wtf else would you do?

It’s my fault for not clarifying what, “trying it raw once” meant.

yes, that
and covered with pinkish sauce sprinkled with dried herbs(i guess)

It's a meal that I don't have to cook after a hard day of work, and is most likely an expression of love. There's nothing that tastes better than that.

Honesty and the ability to receive constructive criticism are pretty great things in a relationship. Since it doesn't pass as 'something I don't have to cook', I would just thank her a lot, and apologise but say I prefer it a bit more well done, and perhaps show her how I like it. Maybe mention the risks that come with undercooked chicken. I would also be infinitely grateful if she showed me nice tricks or just simply explain in detail how she would like me to do stuff for her. All kinds of stuff.

if your girl makes this for you, you must have a fantastic insurance policy lmao

That shit took 5 mins to prepare tops. Like if someone slaved away in the kitchen and it just turns out bad that's one thing. I can put on a brave face and appreciate the effort for that. This plate on the other hand is an insult to the chicken that died for it. Hard to imagine that someone didn't mess it up on purpose to be honest. I wouldn't say that of course but I wouldn't eat it either. "I'm sorry, it just doesn't look like something I'd like to eat. If you like it that's great but be sure the chicken is thoroughly cooked. I'd rather make something else for myself now." That's what I'd like to hear in a situation like that so that's what I'd say.

1

I'd probably mention how it looks raw and unappetizing, but put it in a nice constructive manner.

Just suffering through that shit doesn't sound like a good relationship imo

Tell her she did great, but the chicken could be cooked a bit more.

You can see it spillong on that yellow sauce(jam like one on bottom) (red ellipses)
(while only parts of skin I see are marked in green ellpses):

there are visible ground pepper(or dried herbs) visible sprinkled on sauce
to me that looks like Russian dressing or fry sauce

you shut the fuck up, eat, and next time, you do the cooking. Your girl is not at your service.

...the chicken is literally raw.

I get the "respect partners as people" angle but you have to at least look at the image and the community

I love the maliciously positive comments about this fake senario.

None of you would eat the salmonella chicken, no matter how much you respect your spouse.

Lol. You can really tell who has and hasn't been in a long term relationship in the comments.

The her to hospital because clearly she had a mental breakdown, stroke, trauma, what ever.

I'm married. I do most of the cooking anyway. My wife is banned from cooking chicken because of the last time. So... "<Wife's name>, we talked about this. No chicken. Let's go to the Mexican restaurant nearby tonight."

I don't know what happened, so maybe I'm assuming too much, but wouldn't it be better for her to try again so that she can improve?

2

It's not a real rule. More like a running joke, because she's had problems getting chicken dishes right more than anything else. It probably does not come across on a random comment on the Internet, but I do think it would be kinda crazy to actually have rules like that in a real relationship.
