Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
I love how that recipe just throws "chutney" in at the end.
Also, 14 cups of flour???

Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
Who would have ever thunk you would have to wash dried currants? Wouldn't that be like washing raisins?

Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
One would think
K, one more bonus unless someone wants another one. Chicken Hash 3 medium size baking potatoes peeled and diced 6 slices bacon, cut into 1" strips and cooked until crisp (optional) 1 small yellow onion, peeled and finely chopped 1/2 C green onion, chopped 3/4 C celery, diced 2 C cooked, skinned, cubed chicken 1 C half and half 1/4 tsp. black pepper Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in 1 qt saucepan. Add potatoes, set lid askew and cook for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes, let dry, add to small amount of oil in heavy skillet, along with onions, celery, and chicken. Cook on medium high, stirring, brown slightly, about 3 minutes. Lower heat and add 1/2 and 1/2, pressing down on mixture. Let liquid cook off completely, then scrape up any crust that forms and mix into hash. Repeat with the rest of the 1/2 and 1/2. This should take about 12 minutes. Add seasonings and crumble bacon on top. Serves 6. Wow. I typed it exactly as it was written. |

Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
I'm not understanding what she means by the "(optional)" by the bacon. How can that be optional?

Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
I can just see it now: "But, doctor, I have no idea how my blood pressure got so high. I've been eating low-salt. It says so right on the cookbook, I swear."

Re: Want a new chicken recipe?
Oh. My goodness.
I'm not sure if my heart is still beating. I just read this entire thread and was nearly as mortified as I was living through the death hole experience. I got to the chicken under a brick recipe and laughed so hard I nearly busted my spleen. I was imagining Rabbit suggesting to make it to cover up an accidental murder scene...ya know, if you accidentally throw a brick at your husband's head play it off as a kitchen tragedy. Graphic murder description I'd like a stuffed chicken recipe. Last edited by Serendipity; 09-02-2012 at 05:51 PM. Reason: Because my phone makes me look stoopid. |
