What is your favorite dinner and how do you make it?

Answer 1

We love this at our house...

Dijon-Tarragon Cream Chicken

Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 Minutes
Ready In: 45 Minutes
Yields: 4 servings

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon

1. Melt the butter and heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place in the skillet. Brown on both sides. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and continue cooking 15 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear. Set aside and keep warm.

2. Stir cream into the pan, scraping up brown bits. Mix in mustard and tarragon. Cook and stir 5 minutes, or until thickened. Return chicken to skillet to coat with sauce. Drizzle chicken with remaining sauce to serve.

I usually serve this with asparagus spears and mashed potatoes.

Answer 2

Chicken Pie (Lazy Man Version)
Buy 1 kg at the Supermarket Deli bar Shredded Chicken
Slice a large onion into rings or crescents and soften in oil in a fry pan.
Sift over some plain white flour and stir over med/low heat for a couple of minutes and stir in some milk until you have a fairly thick sauce.
Add shredded chicken and combine. Turn off heat and let the sauce cool and the chicken warm.
In the mean time line a greased pie dish with a sheet of puff pastry.
Individual oval pie dishes could be used if you have 4 to cook for.
Once the chicken mix has cooled 2/3 rds fill the pie dishes.
Cover with another piece of pastry trim edges and brush with milk. Spear the top with the tip of a knife to create steam vent.
Place in a preheated oven 160C for 30-40 minutes until the tops are browned nicely.
Remove and place on a wire rack to cool.

A teaspoon of curry powder added with the flour would be great.

I would have minted peas, mashed potatoes and gravy.

Answer 6

I only cook for two, my husband & I, but this is one of our favorites.
Take 2 fresh salmon filets and marinade overnight in Newman's Own Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing. Place in broiler on high covered with foil for 15 minutes. Or, place on pre-heated, pre-oiled grill for 3 minutes each side. Just finish off with a fresh veggie, asparagus or pea pods & red peppers - my fave choices, and a potato if you need more and you're all set for a quick easy delicious dinner. ENJOY!

Answer 9

Here are some of our family favorites.

This is quick and easy. .
Saturday Chicken
5 servings
10 chicken legs (or whatever you prefer)
(you dont have to use that many chicken pieces. Use how many pieces you want. the rest of the recipe stays the same.)
1 can condensed cream of mushroom (or cream of chicken)
1 cup of cream (dont cheat and use milk; the cream makes a lot of difference)
salt, garlic powder, and paprika- to taste
chopped parsley
Season chicken with salt, garlic, and paprika. Next, spread it out, in one layer baking pan. Dilute the soup with the cream; pour it over the chicken, and sprinkle parsley on top.
Bake , uncovered, at 350' for 1 hour or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with fork.
Makes a delicious gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes or buttered noodles or rice.

Broccoli Chicken Casserole

Pepperidge Farm Stuffing
1/2 c. mayonnaise
