[CnD] CHICKEN CURRY IN A HURRY
CHICKEN CURRY IN A HURRY Ingredients · 1 Tbsp corn, grapeseed, or olive oil · 1 medium onion, sliced · 1/3 cup golden raisins (optional) · Salt and freshly ground pepper · 1 1/2 teaspoons yellow curry powder, or to taste · 4 skinless, boneless, chicken breast halves (1 to 1 1/2 pounds)* · 1 cup sour cream · Minced fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish *Some chicken breasts are bigger than others. We had two huge breast halves that added up to 1 1/2 pounds. To make them more serving sized, we sliced each half in half, horizontally, to make 4 breast pieces. Method 1 Put the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add the onions (and optional raisins), sprinkle with some salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium, sprinkle with half of the curry powder, and continue to cook a minute or two. 2 Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle it with the remaining curry powder. Move the onion to one side of the skillet and add the chicken in one layer. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate. 3 Add the sour cream and stir constantly over medium-low heat until the mixture is nice and thick. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for a couple more minutes, or until cooked through, turning once. Garnish with cilantro or parsley and serve with rice.

A friend passed this along to me. You may have already seen this, but it seems to be valuable info, I am SO impressed by thislooks awesome!!! My experience with burns is this: Once I was cooking some corn and stuck my fork in the boiling water to see if the corn was ready. I missed and my hand went into the boiling water A friend of mine, who was a Vietnam vet, came into the house, just as I was screaming, and asked me if I had some plain old flour... I pulled out a bag and he stuck my hand in it. He said to keep my hand in the flour for 10 mins. which I did. He said that in Vietnam, this guy was on fire and in their panic, they threw a bag of flour all over him to put the fire out...well, it not only put the flour out, but he never even had a blister S, long story short, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 mins, pulled it out and had not even a red mark or a blister and absolutley NO PAIN. Now, I keep a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn myself, I use the flour and never ONCE have I ever had a red spot, a burn or a blister! *COLD FLOUR feels even better than room temperature flour. Miracle, if you ask me. Keep a bag of white flour in your fridge and you will be happy you did. I even burnt my tongue and put the flour on it for about 10 mins. and the pain was gone and no burn. Try it! BTW, don't run your burn area under cold water first, just put it right into the flour for 10 mins and experience a miracle! ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

The recipe comes from chef and suburban homesteader Janice Cole, who is raising a trio of hens in a chicken coop wired for sound. When the three divas get bored or testy, a Mozart concerto soothes them. When they're hungry, chopped Parmigiano-Reggiano rind, al dente pasta, sushi rice, nori or Gorgonzola crumbles top off their bird feed. We're assured that this quick work night sandwich brought no harm to the "girls." Toasted Chicken Sandwiches with Caramelized Apples and Smoked Gouda Reprinted with permission from Chicken and Egg: A Memoir of Suburban Homesteading with 125 Recipes by Janice Cole (Chronicle Books LLC, 2011) Copyright © 2011 by Janice Cole. Serves 4 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 2 unpeeled apples, such as Honeycrisp or Gala, sliced 2 teaspoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice 1/4 cup honey mustard 8 sliced country French bread, cut 1/2-inch thick from an oval loaf 1 cup shredded smoked Gouda cheese (4 ounces) 2 cooked chicken breasts, thinly sliced (about 2 cups) 1. Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until they are wilted and golden brown. Transfer to a plate. 2. Melt 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter in the same skillet over medium heat and add the apples. Combine the sugar and allspice and sprinkle over the apples, stirring to coat them. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook the apples for 5 to 8 minutes, or until brown but still slightly crisp, increasing the heat to high if necessary. 3. Spread the mustard over one side of each slice of bread and lightly spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over the other sides. Arrange the cheese over the mustard side of half of the bread slices. Layer with the caramelized onions, chicken, and apples. Top with the remaining bread, mustard-side down. 4. Grill the sandwiches in a skillet or on a griddle, lightly coated with butter or olive oil, over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes or until the bread is toasted golden brown and the cheese is melted, turning as needed. Serve immediately. Note: The onions and apples can be cooked (separately) up to 8 hours ahead of time and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before using. TIPS When we were testing this recipe we made one with some thin wedges of Brie cheese in place of the smoked Gouda. So good. For non-meat eaters, skip the chicken and use 4 halved hard-cooked eggs. Sear the halved eggs, cut side down, in some butter until they are flecked with brown, sprinkling them with salt and pepper. Then make the sandwich as directed. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

Re: [CnD] Question related to cooking equipment.
Wow! That's a loaded question! One can never have enough kitchen gadgets. You might want to consider the types of things that you want to prepare and what is necessary to accomplish the job. For example: Will you be preparing fresh vegetables? Do you want to bake a cake? Will you be preparing fried foods? Can your adjust-a-scoop measure liquids? If you like cheese, you might want to get a cheese grater. A good peeling tool comes in handy for multiple things. I feel that a good set of knives, including a serated knife, are essential. And, a good whisk is also handy. Cheryl chapalache...@gmail.com -- From: "T. J." Sent: Friday, May 06, 2011 3:54 PM To: "Cooking in the dark" Subject: [CnD] Question related to cooking equipment.

It doesn't have to be expensive, just taste good. Trader Joe's has Charles Shaw wine for only $1.99 a bottle in CA and $2.99 everywhere else. It is great wine, red and white and pink- all of them.
