Answer 1

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH BALSAMIC VINAGRETTE
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (4-pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces (giblets, neck and backbone reserved for another use)
1/2 cup low-salt chicken broth
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

Whisk the vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper in small bowl to blend. Combine the vinaigrette and chicken pieces in a large resealable plastic bag; seal the bag and toss to coat. Refrigerate, turning the chicken pieces occasionally, for at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove chicken from the bag and arrange the chicken pieces on a large greased baking dish. Roast until the chicken is just cooked through, about 1 hour. If your chicken browns too quickly, cover it with foil for the remaining cooking time. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Place the baking dish on a burner over medium-low heat. Whisk the chicken broth into the pan drippings, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the baking sheet with a wooden spoon and mixing them into the broth and pan drippings. Drizzle the pan drippings over the chicken. Sprinkle the lemon zest and parsley over the chicken, and serve.

Fettuccine Alfredo Taco Salad Home Made Mac And Cheese French Onion Soup With Garlic Bread Chicken Burgers And Fries

Answer 3

Cream Of Chicken Casserole.

what you need---

Two cans Cream Of Chicken
16 ounces of Sour Cream
2.5 - 3 pounds chicken tenders
(boneless skinless, cooked with just salt and pepper to taste)
Two Tablespoons of butter, melted
One box, two rolls (they come in fours) of Ritz Crackers

They have health concious versions of everything I've listed for a healthier meal seeker.

Cook the chicken in a 13X9 pan lined with tin foil (for easy cleanup/reuse).Cover the chicken while cooking. Should be about an hour to reach safe temps and cook through.

While this is cooking take the sour cream and the cream of chicken soup, whip/whisk them together. (To this you can add a can of corn or whatever vegetable you like.)

when the chicken is done, drain/cut into bite size peices, cubes work well. Remove the foil from the pan. Mix the chicken into the Soup/Cream mix, pour this back into the pan.(you could now sprinkle with cheese(s). should you want to) Crumble up the two packages of crackers and cover. Drizzle the melted butter over this cracker layer to keep it from drying out too much.

Bake again for about 20-25 minutes. At this time the cheese (if added) is all melty and ooey gooey, the crackers are crips and the whole thing is a steaming "pot of gold".

For the kids, should they resist, add ketchup. It's yummy.

Answer 4

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMEGr

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 5

Sour Cream & Chicken Enchiladas

2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast
2 cans cream of chicken soup
8 oz. sour cream
4 oz. can chopped green chilies
1/2 medium onion, chopped
16 oz. grated Monterey Jack cheese
flour tortillas

Boil chicken until cooked and tender; drain, reserving some broth. Shred in processor or chop. In medium saucepan, mix soup, sour cream, chilies, and onion. Heat over low heat, but do not boil. Add broth until sauce is pourable. Spread thin layer of sauce in 9x13 pan to prevent sticking. Fill tortillas with chicken, cheese, and a spoonful of sauce, then roll up and lay crosswise in pan. Top with remaining sauce and cheese. Heat at 350 until cheese melts and begins to brown (about 20 min.). Great with rice and beans.

Answer 6

Steak rollem ups with potatoes:
Take round steak that has been tenderized and cut it into small strips. Put a small piece of bacon on the steak and roll it up and put a tooth pick through it. Do this until all of the steak is rolled up with bacon in them. Put them in a roasting pan with new potatoes and onions. Bake for about an hour at 350

Answer 7

STEW ! ! ! & BISQUITS

Any kind of stew is the answer. I like to cook mine on our wood burning heating stove (our only source of heat) It picks up some absolutely wonderful flavors from the wisps of smoke when you add a log and the temperature varies up and down as you stoke and burn down.
You can get liquid smoke from the store. Give it a try. Simmer a long time and change the heat setting on your cook stove.

Make homemade bisquits with this simple recipe

1 cup self rising flour
1 heaping tablespoon REAL mayonaise
3/4 cup milk

mix flour and mayo with fork to course cornmeal appearance

add milk till dough is formed

knead 8 to 10 times

let stand 5 minutes

roll and cut with cutter ( drinking glass, coffee cup) or pinch off and roll rough edges under

place sides touching in sprayed (buttery flavored) cake pan, lightly spray tops

bake till golden brown

MMM MMMMM MMMMM MMMMM
