Any body have any recipes for chicken?

I have a few that are very simple.





Chicken Cordon Bleu





Chicken breasts


Eggs, beaten (how much depends on how many breasts)


Bread crumbs (I like the Italian style)


Cheese (White cheese, your choice, I like Jack, Swiss, or Provolone)


Deli sliced ham


Oil, your choice





Flatten the breasts to where you can roll them up. Lay the ham and cheese on breast. Roll them up (you can use toothpicks to hold them in place). Dip in eggs and coat in bread crumbs. Heat skillet to medium flame with oil. Lightly fry until golden brown.





Yakitori





Chicken breasts, largely diced


1/2 cup of dry white wine or sherry


1/2 cup of soy sauce


Tablespoon of crushed garlic


Tablespoon of crushed ginger


Various vegetables used for kabobs (bell peppers, mushrooms)


Bamboo skewers


Sesame seeds (optional)





Marinate chicken in wine, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce mixture. A day is best. Soak the skewers in water so they don't burn on a grill. Make the ';kabobs'; by alternating veggies and chicken. Sprinkle on sesame seeds. Grill until chicken is no longer pink.Any body have any recipes for chicken?

ASIAN CHICKEN SALAD


INGREDIENTS:


2 tablespoons brown sugar


2 teaspoons soy sauce


1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)


1/4 cup vegetable oil


3 tablespoons rice vinegar


1 (8 ounce) package dried rice noodles


1 head iceberg lettuce - rinsed, dried, and chopped


4 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and shredded


3 green onions, chopped


1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted





Directions:


Prepare the dressing 30 minutes ahead of time by combining the brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, salad oil, and rice vinegar in a salad dressing carafe.


To prepare the Chinese rice noodles, heat a skillet with a few tablespoons of oil and break off a little bit of the noodles and add them to the skillet and fry them. They will puff up in the skillet, so only add a few at a time. As they begin to puff up, remove and drain them on paper towels. Be sure to cook long enough as the under cooked noodles will be like eating needles. Once cooked, add them to the salad mixture.


In a large bowl combine the iceberg lettuce, cooked and shredded chicken, green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Let chill about 10 minutes, and just before serving add the cooked rice noodles. Serve in salad bowls and offer the dressing in a pourable container so your family can add as much dressing as they want. You can also pour the dressing over the top of the salad, toss, and serve immediately.
Want to step up your fried chicken? open that snack cabinet and pull out all the part boxes of crackers. like cheese nips weatables, etc. take them all, toss into a blender. grind em up into crumbs. add your favorite bread crumbs your normally use. mix them with the crackers. go ahead and make your fried chicken the way you normally would. It will give the chicken a different taste. experiment using different crackers to you find a blend you like. It great, its different, and you don't waste those few crackers nobody seem to want.
One of the simplest ones that I do is I take chicken breasts and grab 4 or 5 random spices from the spice rack. Put chicken in a baking dish with Pam sprayed on it. Then generously sprinkle each spice over both sides of the chicken. Bake until done and serve.





An example of a good combination of seasonings: meat tenderizer, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, sage, ginger, parsley and oregano.

Lemon butter chicken and pasta





NGREDIENTS:


Lemon Butter Sauce:


1/4 cup white wine


5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice


5 tablespoons heavy cream


1 cup butter, chilled


salt and pepper to taste





Chicken and Pasta:


1/2 pound dry farfalle (bow tie) pasta


4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/4 inch thickness


2 tablespoons olive oil


2 tablespoons butter


1/4 cup all-purpose flour


salt and pepper to taste


4 ounces bacon


6 ounces mushrooms, sliced


6 ounces artichoke hearts, drained and halved


chopped fresh parsley for garnish





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




DIRECTIONS:


To make the sauce, pour the wine and lemon juice into a saucepan over medium heat. Cook at a low boil until the liquid is reduced by 1/3. Stir in cream, and simmer until it thickens. Gradually add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time to the sauce, stirring until completely incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, and keep warm.


Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, and set aside.


To make the chicken, heat oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. In a bowl, stir together flour, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat chicken with flour mixture. Without crowding, carefully place chicken in hot oil. (If necessary, cook in batches.) Fry until cooked through and golden brown on both sides. Remove the chicken to paper towels. Stir the bacon, mushrooms, artichokes, and capers into the oil; cook until the mushrooms are soft.


Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size strips, and return them to the skillet. Stir half of the lemon butter sauce into the chicken mixture.


To serve, place pasta in a large bowl. Stir the chicken mixture into the pasta. Taste, and adjust seasonings. Stir in additional lemon butter sauce as desired. Toss well, and garnish with parsley.

Here is a great recipe that is always a crowd pleaser. In a loaf pan (good only becuase of it's size) place 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts. Open a can of Campbells reduced fat condensed Cream of Mushroom soup. pour the entire can over the breasts and spread evenly. (don't freak out - the soup is a little thick before it cooks). Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. While the chicken is baking, cook some wheat or white rice according the package. When the chicken is done, serve over rice. Enjoy! This recipe is low fat and really easy!
