Country Club Chicken It wasn’t until a friend of mine casually asked me what I had put into the chicken casserole that made it so creamy without making it greasy, that it dawned on me this is more an American than a European way of cooking. Using a concentrated soup as the basis of your casserole—turning it into a sauce like that—isn’t really common in Dutch cooking. Actually, it’s really uncommon. I love it, though. It’s tasty, easy and fast and you always get the same result. This is a very old recipe that a lot of you probably still know from old church or community cookbooks. For those of you who don’t… you need to make this one, stat. Ingredients: 1 pound spaghetti 4 chicken breasts 1 large onion 7 oz mushrooms 1 can concentrated cream of mushroom soup (1 Unox or 2 Campbell’s) 4 or 5 slices bacon 1/4 cup dry white wine 2/3 cup sharp cheddar 1 apple butter or oil salt & pepper Directions: Mince the onion. Peel and mince the apple (or wash it well). Cook the bacon and don’t clean out the pan. Add the soup.

Chicken Roll Ups I have a great, easy and delicious new recipe to share with you! One of my favorite things to do in my limited free time is to search food blogs and food websites. I kept seeing recipes similar to the one I'm going to share but I didn't like half of the ingredients, and the ones I did like, Chris didn't. So here's my version of Chicken Roll Ups! First, I boiled 2 chicken breasts. Meanwhile, I let a block of cream cheese thaw out. I mixed the cream cheese with 1 1/2 cups of cheddar and 1 cup of Monterey jack and some salt and pepper. Once the chicken was cooked, Chris shredded it for me with his hands of steel, and we mixed it into the cheese mixture. Then I put the mixture on big, buttery, flakey crescent rolls. And rolled them up. Finally, bake them at 350 for 20-25 minutes! Combine chicken, cheeses, salt and pepper. Be sure to check out my other great chicken recipes too! Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti

Jalapeno Kettle Chip Crusted Chicken with Jalapeno Ranch Wednesday, November 16, 2011 Jalapeno Kettle Chip Crusted Chicken with Jalapeno Ranch First off, thank you all for your iPhone app suggestions! So, do you remember that photo I tweeted last night (If you couldn’t tell, I’m totally loving the Instragram App)? Hubs and I are sort of obsessed with Kettle Brand potato chips. Well, I recently had a hankering for some Salt and Vinegar Kettle Chips and walked over (yes, I basically live next door) to Publix only to find that they were <GASP> out of them! Well, I have to say, I am now glad they were out because it forced me to broaden my flavor horizon. Anyhow, if you like a little kick (which you KNOW hubs and I do), these are your new chip flavor… You’re welcome. So what does all of this have to do with dinner last night? Excellent decision, my friends. Now, what does one pair Jalapeno Kettle Chip Crusted Chicken with??? This dish is not for the faint of heart. Enjoy!

Quick Chicken Salad This summer we spent a week on vacation with my parents. While there, I helped my mom whip up some chicken salad for lunch. We used canned chicken because it was quick and convenient. A vacation is suppose to be a vacation, we didn’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen. Now, you can always cook chicken and use it in this recipe but like I said, we made it with canned chicken to make life easy.

Beer Battered Corn Fritters After a long day of basketball activities and a Sunday dinner management circus act, I thankfully had enough time to capture a picture of our Sunday starter. I'm glad I did because these were delicious and I need to share them right away. Some people think of corn fritters as flat pancake-like eats, but when I hear the word fritter, I think crispy on the outside and light and tender on the inside. And that is exactly what these are-- sweet corn in beer batter fried to crispy perfection. Printable RecipeCorn Fritters makes about 3 1/2 dozen 3 cups fresh or frozen corn, thawed 1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar 2 green onions, finely chopped 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 1 4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste 1 extra large egg 1 12-ounce bottle beer (I used a pale ale) Vegetable oil for frying Kosher salt Accompaniments Honey Cayenne Pepper Tabasco In a heavy-bottom saucepan, heat 2 inches of oil to 350º F on a thermometer.

Classic Baked Chicken Recipe If there is one recipe that every home cook should know, it’s this baked chicken recipe. All you need is chicken, olive oil, salt, and pepper (and maybe some stock or white wine for gravy). We usually buy whole chickens and either cut them up ourselves or have the butcher do it for us. It’s cheaper that way and we get giblets for gravy. You can do that or just use a package of whatever chicken parts you like—breasts for white meat, thighs and legs for dark. This way of cooking chicken couldn’t be more straightforward and is especially welcome on days when you’re busy and just want to put good food on the table. From the recipe archive, first posted in 2008. Even if you intend to eat the chicken without its skin, leave the skins on for baking. Ingredients One 3 to 4 lb chicken, cut into 8 parts (2 breasts, 2 thighs, 2 legs, 2 wings) excluding the backOlive oilKosher saltFreshly ground black pepper1/2 cup of low sodium chicken stock* or white wine for the gravy (optional) Method Hello!
