Chicken Cordon Bleu Burgers Recipe Courtesy Rachael Ray (Chicken

This recipe makes HUGE burgers. Next time I will make them thinner/smaller. I did the patties on the Foreman grill. We enjoyed the flavors so much I'm making the burgers again this week, only I'm trying turkey, and bacos!


2 teaspoons vegetable oil or olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 slices Canadian bacon
2 lbs ground chicken
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
2 teaspoons garlic steak seasoning (Montreal Steak Seasoning) or salt and pepper
1 shallot, finely chopped
4 slices swiss cheese
2/3 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, 4 sprigs chopped
4 kaiser rolls or English muffins, sour dough, split and toasted
8 leaves leaves lettuce
1 tomato, vine ripe, thinly sliced

Preheat grill pan, nonstick griddle, large nonstick skillet or table top electric grill to medium high heat.
Add 2 tablespoons of oil and Canadian bacon. Warm bacon and caramelize it at edges, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove to a piece of foil. Fold foil over loosely to keep warm.
Pour olive oil on plate. Finely chop shallot (not too much shallot or too big, or the burgers will fall apart).
Combine chicken, paprika, poultry seasoning, grill seasoning, shallot.
Score meat with the side of your hand to separate into 4 equal amounts. Make 4 large patties, 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Drop each patty onto the plate you poured olive oil on and coat with oil and place on hot grill pan, griddle or in skillet. Cook 5 minutes on each side, until chicken is cooked through.
Top patties with reserved cooked Canadian bacon and Swiss cheese. Fold each slice of cheese in half to fit the burger. Cover loosely with tin foil. Turn off pan and let cheese melt, 2 minutes.
Combine mayonnaise (or reduced fat mayonnaise, eyeball it), mustard, tarragon. Slather bun tops or English tops with sauce. Place Cordon Bleu burgers on bun bottoms and top with lettuce and tomato. Put bun or muffin tops in place. Serve with fries.

Chicken in Foil Triangles - Aka Twice Baked Chicken

I used to maintain a website called "Guide to Living Alone" which featured some good recipes for one person. This recipe is one I put together for my friend Ellen, because it was one of her favorite sidedishes at a Chinese restaurant we frequented. The little triangular foil packets of chicken were such a treat! If you double/triple/etc the recipe, it can also make good appetizers for a party, or even take-alongs for a picnic or potluck.

5 ounces can cooked white chicken meat
1/2 teaspoon chinese hoisin sauce
1 dash sugar
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
2-3 dashes sesame oil, to taste
1/4 teaspoon roasted minced garlic (or garlic powder to taste)
2 teaspoons chopped green onions
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon minced water chestnuts (optional)

Mix together all ingredients.
Put into covered dish and put in fridge to marinate for one hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Wrap tablespoon sized portions in pieces of aluminum foil, either in triangular shapes or about 2 1/2-inch square.
Bake in 350 degree F oven for about 10 minutes.
Serve along with stirfry and rice, or as an appetizer.

Make some good old chicken and noodles, Boil your chicken and make some homemade noodles by mixing about 6 eggs and flour until your dough is stiff enough to roll out, then roll your dough up and cut into strips let the dough dry out on counter, take your chicken broth to a boil add noodles slowly and cook until tender. They have already made noodles in the freezer dept of your local store, that saves all the mess they are call Remes homemade noodles. You can mash some potatoes and put noodles and chicken over that. Good hearty meal, easy and cheap to make.

Answer 6

My husband makes killer chicken tacos. We saute it up in a pan on the stove and chop it up. Then mix with taco seasoning mix (one comes with the taco bell box and is great!) or they make a "Chicken Taco Seasoning" I think it is by McCormack.
Also, my mother in law and I made some chicken last night, using boneless, skinless breasts, as well as bone-in, skin on legs. Marinated in Paul Newman's Oil & Vinegar dressing, then cooked on the grill. Top it with an onion that was cooked on the grill with worchestire sauce and garlic wrapped in foil.

Answer 7

Dice up boneless/skinless breast (which you can get cheap by the bag in the frozen food section) cook them up in some olive oil and garlic, add some prepared pasta and veggies right to the skillet, toss and heat through. You can add a jar of Alfredo sauce if you wish.

or

Dice them up and add an envelope or two of taco of fajita seasoning, eat on tortillas with your favorite taco toppings.

or

Prepare some white rice, add some Cream of Chicken or whatever soup to it, add in diced chicken.

Or

Shred BBQ chicken up and eat on buns.

Answer 11

The first thing I want to tell you about chicken is have you ever heard of Chicken Taco's. All you do is take your left over fried chicken and shread it and use it just like the hamburger meat when you make tacos. It is great. I think I like it better that beef.

This does not have a name but I love to put chicken breast in my crock pot and cover it with cream of mushroom soup, add a little salt and pepper and let it cook all day. YES, YES it's all to pieces and is messy as heck but it taste SOOOO good. I just love it and so does my family. I think it's because it's so gooey good.

Anything stir fry is wonderful with chicken...I like to use chicken breast for this one. De-bone. Cut in small thin strips. I use Italian salad dressing. Since chicken does not take long to get done I usually cook the chicken until it is done and put it aside. I love to use snow peas, but they can be quite expensive so I don't use them very often. I buy the large bags of mixed frozen vegs. and add to the dressing and cook to the prefered crispness and add chicken. A meal ready to go. Add yellow rice if you like. Any veg. you like would work. Fresh or frozen. This is one of our best meals ever.

Uncover & bake for 30-45 min. or longer till chicken is tender. Baste chicken occ. with sauce as it cooks. When done twist the two slices of pinapple (cut into) and place on chicken and serve.
