Cooking Tip

Frozen gravies or sauces may be a little thicker after thawing than they were when they were made fresh. If you add a little milk, broth, bouillon or wine, you can thin them to desired consistency.

You can bake them in BBQ sauce, you can Fry with breadcrumbs, you can cut them up into lil nuggets and serve with your favorite salad dressing to dip in. Serve with Salad, or vegetables, and /or mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.

I slice my boneless chicken breasts into cutlets, dip in flour with salt and pepper. Brown slightly in olive oil and fresh garlic.. Remove the chicken, and add tomato sauce to the pan, add some oregano. Return the chicken to the pan, cook over low heat for about 45 mins, stirring occasionally. Sauce will be thick.

Serve over rice or pasta, and enjoy.....
Pan Fried Steak With Vegetables
2 steaks, i suggest a medallion cut sirloin
1/2 bunch asparagus, cleaned and woody stems removed
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
2 cups cleaned and sliced mushrooms, portabello are nice but button/brown are good too
1 cup red wine
2 shallots, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2-2 cups halved cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
kosher salt and pepper



1. Pat 1-2 pinches of salt into each side of the steaks.
2. Heat a large saute pan or iron skillet to medium high.
3. You'll want to avoid non-stick for this purpose and don't put any oil in the pan either, as we're going to want all those little bits that stick to the bottom of the pan for later.
4. place steaks in pan and let sear.
5. DON'T YOU DARE POKE AT'EM!
6. Cook on each side to desired doneness-- when they're just underdone, remove from skillet, place on plate, and stick that plate in a 200 degree oven to keep warm, and to rest.
7. heat olive oil in the same pan as you cooked your steaks in.
8. Add your mushrooms, shallots, garlic and a pinch of salt and and few grinds of pepper and sweat at medium until tender, stirring occassionally.
9. Raise heat to medium-high and add rosemary and asparagus and gently add red wine.
10. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes.
11. Uncover, and add tomato halves.
12. Keep stirring occassionally until liquids have reduced to a syrupy texture.
13. Squish 6-10 tomato halves with a fork (another reason to avoid non-stick pans for this) and add the butter in chunks randomly throughout the pan.
14. Reduce heat to minimum and let the butter melt.
15. Get the steaks out of the oven (carefully! that plate is gonna be hot!) and place one on each plate to be served.
16. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, divide veggies between the two plates.
17. Spoon some of that sauce over each plate, making sure to keep the portions equal (many arguments over'who got more sauce' whenever we have this-- trust me the extra care is warranted).
18. Garnish with some parsley or rosemary sprigs, and serve.

Answer 2

Chicken and tagliatelle (or any pasta) with a creamy sauce.

Cut the chicken into small cubes, cut some red/green bell peppers and mushrooms if you have them into small bits, fry all this and put it aside.

Make a sauce of double cream, grated parmesan (or another cheese) and paprika and heat it up. Add the chicken back and heat that up again.

Meanwhile cook some pasta (fresh pasta from the supermarket chiller cabinet is really nice, but dried pasta is fine).

Serve the pasta with the sauce on top or to the side.

Its a really creamy, tasty, filling sort of dish.

Its nice with red/white wine, if you have any.

You can adapt this to whatever budget and ingredients you want to use. The cream really makes the dish, but mayo is an alternative.

Answer 3

don't cook those chicken breast, mince and medallion steak. you and your boyfriend will be the one cooking it while you are in the table during your dinner. you may cook it like a barbecue fry. the same scheme what we did in hotpot (chinese meal) while they are in business meeting. actually, this is nice agenda with your love one because it take more than an hours to take a meal.

try it..........this is a romantic activity.

Answer 4

Can you afford some mushrooms and onions?

Fry some chopped onions, add the mushrooms. Add the minced beef until it browns and then add a little water and an oxo cube and simmer for about 20 minutes.

Very tasty and cheap

Serve up with something cheap also. EIther pasta, potatoes or spaghetti.

Answer 5

How a pair of tart? somewhat consumer-friendly to cheat at, purchase puff pasty, roll out to the dimensions of the tray youre going to apply, brush the tray gently with oil, place pastry on tray. unfold a delicate coating of pesto or chutney or tomato sauce/paste on the pastry, leaving a 2cm border(for the tart crust) decrease up courgette, mushrooms, crimson onion, pepper, olives, squash, garlic (any veg you want somewhat). Scatter this over the pastry (now not the border nonetheless). Drizzle gently with olive oil (some cheese on good alongside with feta/grated cheddar is going somewhat superb too), then bake on a medium warmth (180ish), its waiting whilst the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Serve with a salad and houmous. that's amazingly tasty. Oh! merely theory-approximately extra! How approximately crammed peppers?? decrease pepper length techniques and deseed. In a bowl place a pair of cup packed with couscous(you ought to apply rice or something somewhat in case you like), upload some vegetable inventory cube and boiled water and canopy till cooked (no time in any respect). Chopped up finely, a mushroom, some olives, some onion, some courgette then stir this into the cooked couscous, upload somewhat olive oil or melted butter to this. Season then stuff the pepper halves with this mixture, I additionally upload diced feta, yet of course depart it out in case you want to. Bake for aprox 35 minutes. I serve mine with roasted new potatoes and steamed eco-friendly bean, tasty!
