If everyone posts one or two, I'll be in good shape for chicken dishes :love:
PLEASE!
Won't you please post a chicken recipe that your family loves? :hug:
Thank you
Debbie (the chicken Queen)
Very very simple, but our fav way to prepare chicken..
chicken breasts, seasoned with your fav seasoning (we use Emeril's chicken rub)
bacon, thick cut (applewood smoked is best), 2 slices per breast
cheese, we prefer havarti or gruyere
Wrap mostly grilled chicken with partially cooked bacon slices. Put back on grill until done, then top with cheese.
I am craving chicken Divan like you wouldn't believe it
Paula is making Chicken Divan right now.
And I have tried the Sun Dried Tomato Cream Sauce stuff. it rawks.
I throw chicken breasts in the crock pot with a can of cream of chicken soup, brick of cream cheese, and packet of dry ranch.
Susan, that tomato sauce recipe loos wonderful! I must try it this week.
*goes to google Chicken Divan*

Chicken Scampi
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp dried oregano
3 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 tsp salt (I think I left this out)
1 T. lemon juice
4 boneless chicken breast halves (you can leave them whole, or cut them up into chunks - I prefer them in chunks)
Directions:
In a skillet, heat the butter and oil over medium high until the butter melts. Add the parsley, basil, oregano, garlic and salt and mix together in the skillet. Stir in lemon juice.
Add the chicken and sautee for about 3 minutes or until it turns white. Lower the heat (medium-ish) and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. More butter can be added if needed.

Marci, about 45 minutes north of Atlanta is a Tyson's chicken plant. They sell boneless/skinless chicken breasts...........a 20 pound box for $23.00. I took a trip up there last Monday and purchased 4 boxes.........now my freezer is chock-full of chicken breasts.
L@@king for the Tequila Lime Chicken recipe! (I love the Tequila Lime Chicken Wings from Tyson, so I'm eager to get a recipe to try at home!)

I posted a thread titled, "Asian Marinade" or something like that in this forum. I used it last night on chicken and it was really good. Tasted like homemade sesame chicken.

I will have to look through my printed recipes when I get home. I was positive I had it on my computer, but apparently I don't. :(

Tonight I baked chicken breasts in the oven - just with pepper and some garlic butter. They were very good. Last week I baked chicken legs - once with lc bbq sauce brushed on them and another time with garlic butter and parmesan cheese. They were good both ways. You could make chicken tacos.

1.) Sprinkle chicken boobs with rotisserie chicken seasoning. Bake in a pan sprayed with non-stick spray for 20 min at 450. (Eating for Life, page 101)
2.) Linda Sue's Green Enchilada Chicken Casserole: http://users3.ev1.net/~fontlady/green_enchilada_chicken_casserole.html

My favorite is to lay out several chicken breasts in a glass pan, drizzle generously with italian dressing, cover with foil and bake in the oven for ~25 minutes at 350. So easy and very good.
Sometimes I add red spuds and carrots to the mix. I check the chicken a couple of times and re-marinade. I also usually take the foil off for the last 5 minutes or so to add a little crisp.

Ok, that chicken scampi was reallllllllyyyyy good. Was I really supposed to use a whole cup of fat to cook it in? /not really complaining
:eat:
I'm so full. I also made this lemon curdy pud (or something like that) from my naked chef cookbook. Can you say comfort food? Yummmmmm.
Oh and apparently 2 glasses of wine gives me a nice buzz. :dunno:

Pizza Chicken (Dana Carpenter) Good stuff, my kids ask for this.
Fry up Chicken boobies until mostly done. add in jar pizza sauce, turn down the heat, cover and simmer for 30 mins.
Place the chicken on your plate and cover with moz. cheese. I also like to sprinkle parm. cheese on it. Its pretty tender and juicy.
I also sometimes add in shrooms and if I am making more than four breasts, then I add a half a cup of wine to the pizza sauce.
Quick and easy and OOOh so good.

Lovely Lemon Curdy Pud (The Naked Chef)
1/4 c butter
1/3 c sugar
grated rind and juice of 1 lemon
2 eggs, separated
6 1/2 T flour (calls for self-rising, I used all purpose)
1 1/4 c milk
Preheat oven to 400F. Cream butter, sugar and lemon rind. Add the egg yolks and flour and beat in, then add milk and 3 T of lemon juice and mix well. (mine was kinda lumpy, but it turned out fine)
Whisk the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff, then add the rest of the mixture. Mix it all well but don't overmixit; you don't want the air to come out fo the egg whites. Pour into a buttered ovenproof dish (I used a pyrex bowl), stand the dish in a roasting pan about a third ful of water, then bake about 45 min (it was closer to 40 for me) until top is set and spongy and it's a nice golden color.
Anne didn't like it. :dunno:
Yum. I might put that on the menu for Monday too.

yay, I'm glad you liked it, I'm always afraid I have crazy unusual tastes and that people are gonna be like "wtf? that recipe was ass. I hate you now."
I usually halve the recipe and so it doesn't seem like much fat to me, but, the one time I made the whole recipe I had ginormous chicken breasts and.. I added more butter at the end.
That Jamie Oliver recipe looks sooo good. I love him. :love:

Pork "Diplomat" - EASY & Induction-Friendly!
Boneless pork roast
Onion
Mayonnaise
Grated cheese
1. Pre-heat oven to 400 F.
2. Take a nice, pink pork roast (with not too much fat around the outside, according to DSIL) and cut it into 1/2" slices, then arrange them along the bottom of a deep baking dish.
3. Slice an onion into half-rings and place them on top of the pork.
4. Take enough mayonnaise to completely cover the pork (thinning it slightly with a little water, if desired) and pour over the top of the pork and onion.
5. Add 4 oz or more of shredded cheese (she uses cheddar, but any gratable cheese will do).
6. Place pan in oven for 15 minutes at 400 F, then reduce heat to 375 F and cook for one hour. If the gratinee starts to become too brown, you can cover the dish with a lid or tin foil.
Notes:
* You can also make Chicken Diplomat, Veal Diplomat, Steak Diplomat, etc. by substituting the pork with other kinds of meat.
* Vegetables may be added. Traditionally, the Ukrainians serve this dish with potatoes, but I found recipes on the Internet that included mushrooms, fresh beets, tomatoes or even prunes!
* The use of mayonnaise and grated cheese over baked meats and vegetables seems to be a very popular combination in Ukraine: I found one restaurant in Kiev on the Internet that had at least four variations of this theme on its menu.
* Other names for this dish include Pork "Le Maxim," Kharkov Steak, Royal Chops or Meat a la France

My 3 super-easy, no-fail, can't possibly screw up chicken recipes:
Put some chicken boobies in a crock pot. Cover with Alfredo sauce. Cook till done
Put some chicken boobies in a glass baking dish. Spread each with mayo. On top of the mayo, sprinkle some parmesan (the green can kind). Bake till done.
Put some chicken boobies in a crock pot. Cover with a jar of salsa. Cook for freaking ever. When the chicken is shred-able, go on and shred it with a fork (or two). Put in tortillas and top with lettuce, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, olives, onions, etc.
I guess you can see I tend to gravitate towards simple dishes that I know my DH and kids will eat.
