Chicken Kiev


So I saw a cooking show (DDD)where they made Chicken Kiev. Looked so good so I thought I would give it a shot!  Chicken breast with a bunch of herbs on the inside, breaded and fried!! Here it is!!

First I made the herbed butter. I used a stick, softened.  Chopped parsley, Thyme, I didn't have fresh rosemary so I used dried, and some dill.

Mix it up and then I put it into my long ice cube tray and put it into the freezer to save for later.

It calls for ground chicken. I didn't have any but I had boneless skinless chicken breast. I put it in the food processor and voila!


Since I had the food processor out, I threw the onion in there too.
And then the eggs... I still stuck to my 2 eggs per pound rule. Mixed up my chicken mixture and added a little bread crumbs to help it stick together and some salt and pepper.

Next, you take the chicken mixture, make it into a patty. put one of the frozen herbed butter sticks in the patty and then close it up around it. Make sure none of the butter is showing. It will look like a log.

Take 3 bowls add bread crumbs to one, flour to one and a couple of eggs scrambled in the third.

Dip the Chicken roll in the flour then the egg then the bread crumbs.

 I used a deep fryer and heated up to 325. When the oil was heated I added the chicken in and cooked it up.
It only took about 10 min to cook. I think because the chicken is ground so it doesn't take as long.
 Cook until golden brown. This is the finished product.


And when you cut into all that herbed goodness is on the inside!!

Shepard's Pie

OK so, maybe it doesn't look that delectable but it WAS! Very tasty, and perfect winter comfort food! I cut up potatoes and put them in water to boil to make the mashed potatoes. In the meantime I browned up about 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef. Added onion celery and carrots, a cup of water, and 2 beef bullion cubes. I also added some frozen corn. You can add peas as well. I cut up 2 springs of Rosemary and some fresh Thyme added to the meat mixture. I then added a packet of brown gravy and a little bit more water and let simmer. Oh and salt and pepper to taste. Preheat oven to 375. While that was simmering I drained and mashed up the potatoes. Adding milk, butter, and sour cream. Salt and pepper to taste. Put the meat mixture in the bottom of a casserole dish and then spread the mashed potatoes gently on top. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes until bubbly. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese on top bake an addition 5 minutes. Serve!

Empanadas

Empanadas...they're delicious and the kids love them!! I never have leftovers when making these. If I have some they disappear before morning. You can put different fillings in, I made beef this time. I first browned up hamburger meat 1.5 lbs, I diced up an onion and put that in and then I added a can of green chiles. Now you can add peas, which I like but the boys aren't super fans of peas in general. I add pepper and the key ingredient: Goya Adobo. It's a Hispanic all purpose seasoning which is fabulous! I use it in a variety of dishes and always have it on hand. I add some cilantro. I also added some cheese not a lot about 3/4 cup. You can add it individually when filling the empanadas or not add cheese at all up to you. I used Monterey Jack but a white cheese is what you use when making cheese empanadas.   I actually let the meat mixture cool down before filling them. it makes it easier to stuff the empanadas because the dough gets soft and then br...

Jellied Cranberry Sauce

I grew up having cranberry sauce from a can on Thanksgiving day. I loved it! I've tried whole cranberry sauce and wasn't a fan. Then I realized I can make my own cranberry sauce! So I few years ago, I tried to make my own. I discovered it's ridiculously easy to make and wow! so much better then the canned stuff I had been eating my entire life. Now, I won't ever eat it from the can again! I make of lot of cranberry sauce. I don't think I have to make this much, I give some away. You don't have to make as much as I do. I started with 44 oz. of cranberrys. I put 3 1/2 cups of water in a large pot added 3 1/2 cups of sugar and brought to a boil. I turned it down to a simmer and listen to the cranberrys pop! I love this part. I stir it up until they stop popping. I used my hand blender to make sure I all the cranberry's were ground up. I then used the juice of one orange, a very ripe, juicy orange. I squeezed it right into the pot. I decided to add som...
