What is a healthy way to cook squash? Blackberry recipe?

I have yellow squash and I also have the round spaceship looking squash.What are some heathy ways to cook it? I know steaming and baking. What seasonings and stuff can I put on it to make it taste good while keeping it lowfat and healthy? I also have a lot of blackberrys. What is a healthy way to fix those? Thanks for any answers.What is a healthy way to cook squash? Blackberry recipe?
I really like banana squash. It is hard to peel if you boil it, but you can just remove the seeds and put in the oven and bake. After it's cooked, it's easy to remove the pulp from the skin. I like to put it in a food processor with a little butter, orange juice, and brown sugar. Yes, it looks like baby food, but don't judge until you've tasted it.





Danish (or acorn, same thing) is the easiest. Cut through the middle from stem end to tip end. remove the seeds from each half, add a little butter and salt, and bake. (350 F for an hour) Serve one half to each person. They can spoon out the pulp, and eat.





I can't help you with blackberries. I visualize a jam or pancake syrup, but I have no experience making anything like that. Try a Google. Wish I could help more on this one.What is a healthy way to cook squash? Blackberry recipe?
squash answer - depends on seasonings for what you are making it with. Yellow is good cut up smaller and used in a stir fry so whatever you are seasoning your stirfry with. Also great in pastas. The acorn squash is the other and it tastes good with a little salt. Simple. Cut in half and bake.





Blackberries, I would say allrecipes.com and get some low fat recipes.





Good luck and squash is the BEST. Butternut is the best ever with a little brown sugar AND salt. Sounds weird but it's not.
I love grilling yellow squash (and zucchini) just sprayed with I Can't Believe It's Not Buttery spray (no fat) and sprinkled with Cavender's Greek seasoning. Just cut in halves or medallions and season the cut sides. They only take a few minutes on the grill, and they are also good added to kebabs. Don't know about 'spaceship' squash...





My favorite blackberry dish is cobbler, but that would not be healthy. Fresh berries on yogurt is a favorite of mine.
Slice the squash or zuccini, put it in a saute pan with a healthy amount of balsamic vinagrette dressing. Saute till they start to change color and get soft.





Healthier way: Use low fat balsamic.





PS anyway you cook squash, requires oil so it doesn't dry out.





This was a huge hit at a party I went to, and my friend is a high end cook at a private gold club. They are both sitting here. The cook also suggests small pieces of garlic shalots while cooking with the balsamic.





I want some when you are done. LOL
Cook there squash with a little onion and add a little butter spray when you eat it.


Blackberries are great fresh with a little cream or put in muffins. Since you want to keep it healthy, put them in bran muffins or use whole wheat flour. Use applesauce instead of oil to the batter.
Yellow Squash Casserole





1 3/4 pounds crookneck yellow squash or other yellow summer squash


1/4 pound zucchini or additional yellow summer squash


1/2 cup coarse-chopped carrots


1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter


1 large onion, preferably yellow, chopped


1 plump garlic clove, minced


1 1/4 cups saltine or Ritz cracker crumbs


1/2 cup grated mild to medium Cheddar cheese


Hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco


Salt and freshly milled black pepper


2 eggs, lightly beaten





Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a medium baking dish.


Slice the yellow squash and zucchini lengthwise into quarters, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Place the yellow squash, zucchini and carrots in a saucepan, barely cover with water and salt well. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium and cover. Cook about 20 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.





Meanwhile, warm 3 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the onion and cook slowly until very soft and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute. Scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl. Wipe out the skillet, return it to medium-low heat, and add to it the remaining tablespoon of butter. Stir in 1/2 cup of the cracker crumbs and cook briefly until the crumbs are golden. Scrape them onto a small plate and reserve them.





Drain the squash mixture, mashing the vegetables just a bit. Spoon it into the mixing bowl. Stir in the remaining 3/4 cup of cracker crumbs, cheese and a good splash or two of the pepper sauce. Salt and pepper generously to taste. Stir in the eggs and spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Scatter the toasted cracker crumbs over the top. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes, until golden brown and lightly firm in the center. Serve hot.

Fresh Blackberry Tart





For Sweet Almond Pastry Crust:


2 cups all purpose flour


1/2 cup finely ground almonds


1 heaping tablespoon brown sugar


Pinch salt


1/2 pound cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes


5 to 6 tablespoons ice water


bag of dried beans


For Tart Filling:


3 pints blackberries


1/2 cup all-purpose flour


Pinch salt


1 1/2 cups granulated sugar


6 tablespoons unsalted butter, small cubes


Juice 3 lemons


1 tablespoon finely chopped lemon zest


1 tablespoon brown sugar








For Crust: In large mixing bowl, mix the flour, ground almonds, brown sugar and salt together. Rub the butter pieces into the flour mixture. Add the ice water and gently knead until dough comes together. Wrap in plastic and form in flat disc about 1-inch thick. Refrigerate dough for 1 hour.


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.





Sprinkle flour on the countertop and roll out the dough to an even thickness, round shape. Place dough round in a 10-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Fold any edges inside, forming a thicker crust. Leave the dough a bit longer than the edges of the tart pan to allow for shrinking during cooking. Line the inside of the crust with parchment paper or foil. Pour in the beans, filling to the edges. Bake about 20 minutes, or until bottom begins to look cooked. Let cool. Remove the beans and foil.





For Tart: Toss the berries with the flour, salt, sugar, butter, and lemon juice and lemon zest. Stir in the brown sugar. Place the fruit in a saute pan over medium heat and cook just until a sauce is formed. Place the fruit in the baked crust and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the fruit bubbles and juice thickens.





Remove from oven and cool for 2 hours before slicing.

--DOLE cookbookCan someone recommend a yummy ';no-cook'; fruit salad recipe? How can I keep the fruits from turning brown?
Fruit salads are almost never cooked.


Yes, lemon juice is the trick, but only necessary for those fruits susceptible to browning, namely bananas, pears and apples. Citrus fruits, grapes, peaches, nectarines, kiwi fruit, apricots are no problem.


Fruit salad doesn't need a dressing, but if you like it sweeter you can add either heavy cream mixed with a bit of sugar, to taste. If you whip the cream and add fold it in with some chopped nuts, too, you have a waldorf salad.Can someone recommend a yummy ';no-cook'; fruit salad recipe? How can I keep the fruits from turning brown?
You can buy at the supermarket a product called ';Fruit Fresh'; Wont let the stuff turn brown and is tasteless

Can someone give me an AUTHENTIC Italian recipe? Italian cooks?

I know I can do online research but I am looking for something very authentic.....maybe the kind that only someone living in Italy or that has a lot of experience with Italian cooking would know. Thanks so much!Can someone give me an AUTHENTIC Italian recipe? Italian cooks?
Mia Nona came from Italy. Sicily precisely. This is one big tradition there:





Sicilian Grilled Meatballs, or Polpettine alla Griglia: One usually thinks of meatballs going into a sauce of some kind, or being fried to golden perfection. However, Sicilians also grill them, and very fine eating it is, too.





2 1/4 pounds (1 k) boned veal or pork, ground.


5 ounces (125 g) pecorino Siciliano (if possible the variety with pepper corns in it, if not a mild Romano), freshly gra


1 cup bread crumbs, moistened in milk and then squeezed dry


3 eggs


2 tablespoons minced parsley


1 clove garlic, minced


Salt %26amp; pepper


Organically grown lemon or orange leaves, lightly oiled


Wooden toothpicks





Combine all the ingredients except the leaves in a bowl and mix well. Roll the meat mixture into balls a little smaller than a ping pong ball, flatten them slightly, wrap a leaf around each, and hold the leaf in place by sticking it with a toothpick. When you have finished making your meatballs, grill them to taste.








And my favorite dessert:





Ricotta Crostata - Ricotta Pie


Pastry


Ingredients





150 grams butter


30 grams icing sugar


100 grams flour


grated rind of one lemon





Method





Leave butter out to soften (overnight in winter or a few hours in summer) so it can be worked easily into the flour.





Put flour onto board and grate the rind into the flour. Mix the flour, icing sugar, grate in rind and then work in the softened butter The dough will be very short and crumbly. You do not get a smooth fine dough, it is a biscuit texture which is then sprinkled into the pan and pressed down and around the sides.





Use spring form pan, 25 cm, well greased. Press well into the pan and take it half way up. Make sure the sides and the base of the pan are well covered so there is no leakage..





Do not pre-cook the pastry.





Filling


Ingredients





1 1/2 kg ricotta


Icing sugar


3 eggs seperated


sugar


milk


80 grams candied fruit diced (mixed fig, apricot,, citrus, mandarin/orange)


50 grams toasted almonds, chopped





Method





Make pastry cream as per strudel method.





Combine ricotta with icing sugar, pastry cream, candied fruit (candita) , almonds (Some people also add a yolk but the pastry cream in enough)





Beat egg whites stiffly in a bowl which has first been wiped with a tiny bit of lemon juice and then dried.. This stops the white seperating and helps make them stiff.





When stiff fold through the ricotta mixture. If your eggs are big you may find that you don’t need to use all the egg white.





Set oven at 250 degree C





Spoon ricotta mixture into crostada and gently spread out. Don't put up too high, keep within the pastry





This can be done in a tart form but then the taste is different. In the high pan it's more filling to crust which is the way the pie should be.Can someone give me an AUTHENTIC Italian recipe? Italian cooks?
FAGIOLI ALL’ UCCELLETTO


sautéed beans with sage





“Beans in the style of little birds” is the meaning of the name of this recipe, which derives its title from a preparation for game using similar ingredients.





1/2 lb (225 gr) dry cannellini beans


4–5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil


2 garlic cloves, crushed whole


5–6 sage leaves


salt and pepper


4 oz (115 gr) fresh ripe tomatoes, peeled and diced





Clean and wash the beans the night before, place them in a container, and cover with fresh water. Leave the beans to soak in the water overnight.


Drain the beans the next day, when you are ready to cook.


Put the beans in a stockpot full of water, and boil for about 20 minutes, or until the beans are tender. In a skillet, pour the extra-virgin olive oil, and turn the heat to medium. Add garlic and sage, and sauté until the garlic starts coloring to a very pale brown. Add the beans, salt, and pepper. Sauté over low heat for about 2–3 minutes. Add the tomatoes. Cook uncovered over low heat for about 20 minutes or until the beans are tender and the sauce thicker. Stir occasionally, adding a small quantity of water if the beans become too dry.

MY AUNT IS ITALIAN AND SHE MADE ME A COOK BOOK.


my favorite aunthentic italian recipe is ';pollo al forno';





Oven-baked chicken will never beat the road-side rotisserie stands that you find throughout souhtern Italy with their wood fires and smoke flavoring of the bird, but this recipe will definitely remind you of those good times you remember while you were living there.











Ingredients for preparation of 1 chicken:











Chicken 1(pick a good sized one)





Olive oil as needed





Rosemary as needed





Lemon juice or white wine as needed





Salt and pepper to taste











How to do it:











Preheat your oven to 375F. (If you have a rotisserie oven you're just that much farther ahead of the game)





Wash the bird thoroughly and dry it with paper toweling.





Take a half cup of olive oil and squeeze the juice of a whole lemon into it.





Pour most of the oil and lemon over the bird and rub it around with your hand so that the chicken is completely covered.





shake some salt, pepper, and rosemary into the body cavity of the bird.





Shake some rosemary, pepper, and a generous amount of salt on the outside of the chicken. (Don't go nuts with salt)





Put the bird in a shallow baking dish or on the rotisserie and bake uncovered for 2 hours (That's right two hours) (If you're using the rotisserie the chicken may start to fall apart before the two hours are up. Just use some common sense) Baste frequently (at first with the remaining oil and lemon, then with the juice that comes from the bird).





Tastes great with tossed salad or potatoes or whatever. If you're doing 100% Italian check some of my other recipes for other course suggestions.











ENJOY!

    Untidy Sameuls





    Probably more widely known as Sloppy Joes, these can be made with ground beef or ground turkey. This homemade version is light years ahead of anything you can buy in an envelope or can, and really just as easy. I like to serve these with paper-thin slices of red onion.





    Ingredients


    1 teaspoon vegetable oil


    1 lb. ground beef or ground turkey


    1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped fine


    1/2 cup best-quality ketchup


    1/2 cup best-quality chili sauce


    2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce


    1 teaspoon coarse salt


    freshly cracked black pepper


    1/3 cup water


    6 sesame seed topped hamburger buns, warmed





    Method


    Brush a skillet with oil and warm over moderate heat, 30 seconds. Add beef [or turkey] and onion and sauté 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add all remaining ingredients [except buns] and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Spoon mixture between split buns and serve immediately.
    Try this stuffed French toast for breakfast some time:


    Slice a loaf of French bread into 3 inch slices. Cut a ';pocket'; in each slice, about 3/4 of the way to the other side. Stuff with your favorite meat (chopped ham, bacon slices, sausage crumbles or patties) and some cheese (swiss, shredded cheddar, or muenster).


    Beat an egg or two in a shallow dish, and dip each sandwich in it, on both sides, then fry them in a hot skillet just like french toast.


    You can have them for lunch, too, just stuff them with whatever they like. We've even made them sweet, with blueberry pie filling and a cube of cream cheese. Encourage them to be creative!
    something easy is cookies just buy some box of cookies that you can make you self all it needs is eggs and a couple other stuff it tells you on the box..or you can make rice crispy treats..if you have rice crispy it tells you a recipe on the back to make them..or you can try a drink let them make smoothies or something like that good luck!!

    http://www.chex.com/recipes/RecipeView.a…





    And it's sooo good! You'll be hooked :)
    experiment. whats the fun of a recipe? i never use those. lol im 13 and love to cook as well.
    Here are a few E-Z recipes you might want to try. Good Luck %26amp; enjoy.





    COLA CHICKEN


    (My preference…wings or ribs)


    4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts


    1 cup catsup


    1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)


    Put chicken in a non-stick pan.


    Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.


    Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.


    (turning chicken a few times, while cooking...to prevent from sticking to pan)


    Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce


    becomes thick and adheres to the chicken.


    It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!


    You can double the recipe and use more pieces of


    chicken....wings...would be ideal...add some hot sauce....presto ';Hot Wings';!


    I have used Ribs, just as good.


    I fixed chicken wings, (using the above recipe)


    but...I added the spices from a MILD (I don't care for ';HOT';) Buffalo Wings packet...(the kind you get to bake in the oven).....I thought it was really good.....(but you/I can't find a 'bad' way to fix chicken).





    CRUNCHY ONION CHICKEN


    1 1/3 cups French’s Original French Fried Onions


    4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves


    1 egg, beaten


    LIGHTLY CRUSH: Onions in a plastic bag.


    DIP: Chicken in egg (put egg in plastic bag)


    COVER: With onion crumbs, press firmly to adhere to chicken.


    BAKE: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place chicken on lightly greased baking pan. Sprinkle with additional onion crumbs, if desired. Bake for 20 minutes or until no longer pink in center.








    ';Corny Beanie Weenies.';


    1 can baked beans (14-16 ounces with brown sugar, onion, and bacon).


    1 package Weiners (all sliced up).


    1 can of whole kernel corn (drained)


    Heat and serve.


    Hint :


    1.)Might put ingredients in a casserole dish and top with corn muffin mix.


    2.)Substitute a pound of cooked ground beef….gr.turkey…smkd. sausage…rename





    POT ROAST


    Your choice of beef (to fit crock-pot)


    1 pkg. dry Ranch dressing mix


    1 pkg. dry Italian dressing mix


    1 pkg. dry Brown Gravy mix


    1 cup water


    Put beef in pot.


    Mix together all the dry mixes….then add water …pour over meat and cover %26amp; cook on high 4-6 hours. Until meat is tender. The first time I mad it I didn’t have the Italian Dressing mix….so I added a pkg. of Onion Soup Mix….I have to say I liked that better. If you use more water you might want to add more Brown Gravy mix….to make a thicker sauce. Was gonna add potatoes and carrots…but never got around to it.








    E-Z Potato Soup


    (2 – 4 servings)


    1 (14 ½ oz.) can of diced potatoes


    1 can of cream of celery soup


    ¼ cup ‘real’ bacon bits (more if you like)


    milk (use soup can to measure milk)


    ¼ - ½ stick of margarine (optional)


    Pour potatoes – liquid an all into medium sauce pan.


    Pour celery soup into a bowl and add a soup can full of milk and mix together, pour over potatoes and stir.


    Stir in bacon bits cook over medium heat until hot, turn off stove add margarine and stir until melted, serve,


    We were given a quart of Half %26amp; Half and I used some of this in my soup. You could use evaporated milk, too. Or some Fat Free milk. Your preference.


    I did not add any margarine. (Second time I made it…I added ½ stick of margine)


    I suppose if you want to add a little “BAM” to it, add some hot sauce. Maybe sprinkle some grated cheese to serve.





    Kreamy Kool-Aid Pie


    1-(6 g) package un sweetened Kool-Aid powdered drink mix


    1-(14 oz.)can sweetened condensed milk


    1-(8 oz)container Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed.

    2. Fold in Cool Whip.


    4. If desired, spread more Cool Whip on top.


    5. Chill for a minimum of 4 hours.


    I’ve used: Strawberry…Cherry…Lemon-lime (Key-Lime Pie)….Lemonade (Lemon Pie…might add some yellow food coloring for a more lemony look.)





    E-Z Cake Recipes

    I eat a lot of Tofu but running out of ideas how to cook. Does anyone have any recipes?

    Gado-gado (Indonesian)


    Choose a Selection of the following:


    cauliflower


    carrots


    green beans


    spinach


    celery


    cucumber


    bean sprouts


    For the first three veggies listed, cut into bite-size pieces and place in boiling water for a few minutes to cook slightly. The others can just be chopped up bite size.


    Cut the tofu into cubes and pan fry it on all sides until crispy in minimal oil. Traditionally you also add cut-up hard boiled eggs, but you don't have to.


    Chill all ingredients together, then pour this peanut sauce over all:


    1 c. hot water


    1 onion, chopped very fine or pureed


    1-2 cloves garlic, minced


    2/3 c. peanut butter


    1 T. sugar


    1 t. salt


    1/4 t. ground ginger


    hot dried red peer, to taste


    2 T. veg. oil


    Mix all together in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly. Let cool. Pour over veggies, serve with rice.I eat a lot of Tofu but running out of ideas how to cook. Does anyone have any recipes?

    Drizzle with a little soy sauce and sesame oil and eat cold. DELICIOUS.


    Or, if you have access to an asian grocery store, eat it with pickled bamboo shoots. it's really really good. Or, make congee (1 cup rice, 10 cups water, cook until the rice is all broken up) and eat the tofu with that.
    -Tofu cut it into small cubes an deep fry it with small deep fried pork cuts dipped in soy sauce mixed with a little vinegar and mash fresh garlic in it and throw in slices of white onion.





    -Cut tofu in cubes again and pour garlic chili sauce over it.
    Too much Tofu is NOT good for you.





    Do some research on the web for the negatives of using too much soy in general, including Tofu.

    i have used this recipie and its very tasty and very easy, i am not so keen on walnuts and used pine nuts instead,
    Pollock isn't a fish for grilling.


    It's flavor is pretty fishy.


    You can take away some of it if you pour milk over it, bath it and let it soak for 45min. to an hour.


    The best suggestion would be to deep fry it.


    It's a great fish for that. It holds up well under those conditions, and are the best fish for deep frying.
    Go on.. www.foodnetwork.com


    you get the best recpie there!!
    Grill it and serve it with salad.
    Spread a sheet of aluminum foil out on the table and lightly butter it then lay your pollock over it and sprinkle with some season salt or some creole seasoning or lemon pepper or whatever you like and then put slices of onions on top....put one or two pats of butter per filet and wrap it up in foil........place on a hot grill and cook until it's done.... it is delicious, simple, and goes great with any side dish you choose.

    The recipe says: ';Cook cauliflower til tender-crisp';, what does cook mean? to fry or boile?

    English is not my mother tongue.


    ThanksThe recipe says: ';Cook cauliflower til tender-crisp';, what does cook mean? to fry or boile?
    Boil.The recipe says: ';Cook cauliflower til tender-crisp';, what does cook mean? to fry or boile?
    Shallow fry
    It would mean to boil but not cook completely especially the white stalk for tender crisp. I don't like tender crisp. I like my cauliflower tender. I put it in cold water, salted, on high heat for 20 -25 minutes. Take it off the stove %26amp; strain.





    I prefer my vegetables cooked, not al dente.
    boil or steam.
    Boil the water, add the cauliflower once boiling and leave only for a minute or two.
    It means to steam or boil. To get tender crisp, steaming might be the best way to go. Just put the pieces in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and then microwave for 4 minutes. If you can puncture it with a fork and it gives with just a ';pop'; on the surface, you have it right. If it is still takes quite a bit of pressure, then cook for 2 minutes at a time until it is as you want it.
    I would steam or boil it.

  • What's a healthy way/recipe to cook pork chops?

    Hi! We did pork chops by trimming away the fat, seasoning with salt, pepper, garlic, a little onion.


    Then we cut up an onion into slices and sauteed that in some olive oil with some mushroom slices for just a few seconds and then added the meat (into the frying pan) to cook it.


    I think you can have squash, at least my husband ate squash on the first phase, and so having mashed squash on the side is really yummy.What's a healthy way/recipe to cook pork chops?
    Since the South Beach Diet calls for a minimum amount of ';bad fat';, I would recommend cooking with a good olive oil and getting good 80-95% lean pork chops.





    Easy, fast recipe





    Since your not allowed fruits or anything with high amounts of sugar, my best bet would be this recipe:





    2 pork chops


    1 bunch of asparagus, or spinach (nice dark green veggie)


    1 lemon


    2 cloves of garlic


    1/2 cup of worchestire, or balsamic


    olive oil


    Tablespoon of any dried herbs you prefer (rosemary, thyme, parsley etc)


    salt and pepper





    Marinade:


    In a zip lock bag, put in your chops, add pepper, herbs


    Half of the lemon's juice


    The balsamic or worchestire sauce


    A few generous pours of olive oil





    Close up the bag, mix around until coated, put in the fridge for a few hours or overnight is best





    Prep:


    cut asparagus at the point where it breaks or where it bends, since the bottom half is not as edible


    Slice garlic into thin slices


    Juice the remaining lemon





    Cooking:


    Take out your chops and leave till room temp


    Set your oven to broil or highest temp


    In a hot pan add olive oil, then garlic, cook for 1 min or until you smell it


    Add your asparagus and mix, add lemon juice, salt and pepper


    Add 1/4 cup of water and reduce





    Put your chops into the broiler and cook for 5-7 min until the chops are bubbily, brown and delicious





    Serve immediately, enjoyWhat's a healthy way/recipe to cook pork chops?
    I suppose the healthiest way would be to broil them so the fat drains away. Having said that, however, I like to trim them well, season with salt, pepper and garlic and brown them in a sautee pan. As I turn them to brown the second side I add a large chopped onion and sautee that too. When the onion is translucent and the chops brown, I add about a cup of water to the pan, cover it, lower the heat and cook for about 30 minutes. We serve them with mashed potatoes, applesauce and sauerkraut.
    Here are two recipes I enjoy.





    Caramel Apple Pork Chops





    * 4 (3/4 inch) thick pork chops


    * 1 teaspoon vegetable oil


    * 2 tablespoons brown sugar


    * salt and pepper to taste


    * 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon


    * 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg


    * 2 tablespoons unsalted butter


    * 2 tart apples - peeled, cored and sliced


    * 3 tablespoons pecans (optional)





    1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). Place a medium dish in the oven to warm.


    2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush chops lightly with oil and place in hot pan. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, or until done. Transfer to the warm dish, and keep warm in the preheated oven.


    3. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, salt and pepper, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add butter to skillet, and stir in brown sugar mixture and apples. Cover and cook until apples are just tender. Remove apples with a slotted spoon and arrange on top of chops. Keep warm in the preheated oven.


    4. Continue cooking sauce uncovered in skillet, until thickened slightly. Spoon sauce over apples and chops. Sprinkle with pecans.





    Grilled Brown Sugar Pork Chops





    * 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed


    * 1/2 cup apple juice


    * 4 tablespoons vegetable oil


    * 1 tablespoon soy sauce


    * 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger


    * salt and pepper to taste


    * 2 teaspoons cornstarch


    * 1/2 cup water


    * 6 boneless pork chops





    1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.


    2. In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, apple juice, oil, soy sauce, ginger, salt , and pepper. Bring to boil. Combine water and cornstarch in small bowl, and whisk into brown sugar mixture. Stir until thick.


    3. Brush grate lightly with oil before placing pork chops on the grill. Cook over hot coals for 10 to 12 minutes, turning once. Brush with sauce just before removing chops from grill. Serve with remaining sauce.
    I would just throw them on the grill, then serve them with some apple sauce or something. I do it all the time. Just make sure you get good pork chops because you are really relying on the flavor of the meat!
    I'm not sure what is allowed in the phase one of the south beach diet but here is one that is a little different but worth a try.





    Chops salt and pepperd on each side.


    Put the chops in a baking dish


    Top each chop with the following:


    1 talblespoon brown suger


    1 tablespoon ketchup


    1 slice onion


    and 1 slice lemon





    Bake at 350 until done.

    I can't find the recipes I've already learned from Mana on Rune Factory 2, so I can't cook them either. Help?

    So I went to the school and learned quite a few recipes, but when I go to cook them, it only shows relax tealeaves, rice ball, bread, and salmon rice ball. I was just wondering if there is a certain order you have to learn the recipes, or if I've come across a glitch? If you could help, please do so.


    Thanks!I can't find the recipes I've already learned from Mana on Rune Factory 2, so I can't cook them either. Help?
    Do you have all of the needed kitchenware? After you buy the Kitchen from Yue you also have to buy things like an oven, mixer, pan, things like that. Certain recipes can only be used on the proper kitchenware so you have to buy them to make the food. I'm pretty sure she sells those things on Fridays, and maybe Thursdays. I hope this helps!

    Grilled Chicken breasts recipe? I want to cook out tonight and I have lots of chicken breasts.Any good recipes

    We like to take a large package of boneless chicken breasts and marinate some in Italian dressing, and season the rest with rubs like Durn Good seasoning and Weber's Zesty Lemon seasoning.





    For grilling, we measure the thickest part of each chicken breast and then use the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com to calculate the grilling times and get instructions for when to put on and turn the chicken breasts so that they all come off the grill at the same time.





    The ones in Italian dressing or with zesty lemon are great with wild rice or on a nice salad. The ones with the more spicy rubs are great dipped in a little barbecue sauce or cut up and added to red beans %26amp; rice for the last 10 minutes of cooking.





    We'll grill up a whole batch of boneless chicken breasts (purchased on sale) and then freeze the leftovers as a great way to eat well on a budget.Grilled Chicken breasts recipe? I want to cook out tonight and I have lots of chicken breasts.Any good recipes

Chopped onion and garlic will add some zing. If you like you can make a nice salad and use some of this as a dressing. Discard the marinade though and don't marinate the chicken and then use it as a salad dressing, of course! I usually put 2/3 juice and 1/3 olive oil. Marinate your trimmed, rinsed and dried chicken breasts for at least thirty minutes but not more than an hour, and grill away! You could add some pre-soaked mesquite chips to your fire too for nice subtle woodsy flavor. Be careful not to overcook the meat, 4-5 minutes per side over a medium hot grill should suffice. Enjoy, Cheri.
    Heres one of my favorite grilled chicken recipes, its great for the summertime, serve it with grilled corn, sliced tomatoes, or saute'd veggies with the leftover pineapple..

    HAWAIIAN GRILLED CHICKEN





    1/2 cup olive oil


    1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice


    1 can pineapple tidbits (reserve the juice for marinade, and add


    the tidbits to some sauteed veggies)


    1/2 cup soy sauce


    3-4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced


    1-2 teaspoons fresh oregano


    1-2 teaspoons fresh Rosemary


    1-2 teaspoon fresh basil (optional)


    1 teaspoon salt


    1/4 teaspoon black or lemon pepper


    1 4 lb. chicken broiler chicken, halved


    olive oil spray (for use during cooking)





    Wash chicken and place both halves in a large Ziploc bag.


    Add lemon juice, pineapple juice and add zest (the yellow portion of the peel) for extra flavor.





    Combine remaining ingredients with the lemon juice and place in bag. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally.





    Place chicken skin side down on grill; keep chicken about 7 inches away from heat. When grilling, set chicken on opposite side of the coals to avoid flare-ups. At start of cooking, brush chicken with marinade - then discard marinade so that you're not tempted to use it during the cooking (for safety's sake).





    Note: For extra flavor, sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder just before cooking. Substitute lemon pepper for the black pepper, if available, for an extra zesty kick.





    Grill chicken for 20 minutes or until browned on one side, avoiding flare ups. At this point, spray the chicken lightly with olive oil spray; then turn it to the other side and spray again. Cook for another 10 minutes or so until chicken is done (juice no longer runs pink).





    Variation: Wine vinegar may be substituted for the lemon juice. If fresh herbs are not available, substitute 1/2-3/4 teaspoon dried.





    Serve garnished with sprigs of Rosemary and a lemon wedge.

    BOURBON CHICKEN











    BOURBON CHICKEN


    3 pounds Boneless/Skinless Chicken Thighs


    3 Cups Maker's Mark Bourbon


    3 Cups Brown Sugar


    1 Cup Soy Sauce


    录 Cup White Wine


    6 Ounces Olive Oil


    3 Teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce


    2 Teaspoons Liquid Smoke


    1 Teaspoon Powdered Ginger Garlic, Pepper and Salt to taste


    Cut up Boneless Chicken Thighs into chunks, brown in a skillet and put into a large shallow baking dish. Pour Sauce over Chicken and bake for 60 minutes at 350 degrees basting chicken every 10-15 minutes. Remove Chicken from baking dish and pour chicken and sauce in a large skillet. Bring to a high heat until sauce thickens and caramelizes. Put Chicken back into baking dish and serve with Cajun or Dirty Rice.
    a recipe that i love is chicken and rice. the way i make it is very delicious and rich, however, it is very unhealthy and full of fat...





    it's fairly easy... bake a whole chicken with skin on (to keep the juices in) seasoned with salt, fresh cracked peppercorns, garlic powder, onion powder and celery seed. stuff the chicken with onion pieces and garlic cloves. reserve the juices from the chicken.





    after the chicken has cooled, remove the skin, onion and garlic and debone. put the bones, onion, garlic, skin and reserved juices in a large sized pot and top off with water. boil for 30 minutes. this will be your broth.





    strain off 8 cups of the broth and add 4 cups of your choice of regular rice, basmati is my favorite... has a delicious nutty taste. cover. put on high heat for 5 minutes, simmer for 15. it's finished.





    combine rice with your deboned chicken which has been cubed. add one packet of onion soup mix, 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup and broth as needed - app. 3 cups - the consistency should not be too thick but also not runny. pour into a large, greased baking dish. bake at 350 for 45 min or until golden.
    One of our family favorites would be to pan fry some boneless skinless chicken breasts. When they are done adds some cream of mushroom soup and some sour cream to the pan. It makes a thick, creamy gravy that is rich and tasty. Serve it over mashed potatoes...YUMMY!





    Thanks for making me do this by the way...It's lunch time in Minnesota and now I am starving...LOL!

    *Note: Chicken Test for Doneness (per Washington Fryer Commission)





    No matter what method you use for cooking chicken, the most accurate test for doneness is a meat thermometer. Since chicken is never ready to be served unless it is done, always be sure it is completely cooked. Whole or bone-in chicken should reach an internal temperature of 180掳F, and boneless chicken should be cooked to 165掳F.


    Other indicators for doneness include:





    A fork or toothpick can be inserted with ease.


    The juices should be clear, not pink.


    Bone joints move easily.

    Similar to iammare's idea but with a red sauce:





    Cook boneless skinless chicken breasts in a skillet with a little oil about 4 minutes per side on medium heat. Add one chopped onion, cook briefly and add 1 cup of chicken broth. Cook about 3 minutes then add one jar of spaghetti sauce. Turn heat to low, cover and let simmer until chicken is done, approximately 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook some spaghetti following directions on the box. Drain the pasta and serve the chicken and sauce over the pasta. Add some bagged salad and Italian bread and there鈥檚 a meal.

    If you are not much for cooking you want to keep it simple.聽 Try a simple roasted chicken.聽 Buy a whole chicken, take out any gizzards that come with it.聽 If you like you can remove the skin.聽 If you don't remove the skin, put the seasonings under the skin.聽 Chop about 1/2 a med onion and a couple of celery sticks - shove these up inside the cavity.聽 Then sprinkle the outside with celery salt %26amp; pepper.聽 Cover with foil if you have removed the skin.聽 Bake at 350 for about 1 1/2 hours - use a meat thermometer to check the temp. You don't want to overcook because it will be dry and you don't want to undercook because that;s not safe.聽 You can serve it with roasted vegetables that will cook at the same time. Chop up some red potatoes, carrots, and a little bit of onion. Toss with olive oil, seasoning salt, and pepper. Bake about 45 minutes at 350 - stirring occasionally. You can also sevre a green salad and bread. For dessert, here is a simple recipe that is very impressive -


    Prepare a day ahead!





    6 inch cheesecake


    2 8 oz containers of cream cheese (you can use lowfat, but I would not recommend fat free)


    2 eggs


    2/3 cup sugar


    1 tsp vanilla


    2/3 cup sour cream





    Beat in order listed. Fold in sour cream gently. Pour into a prepared graham cracker crust in a 6 spring form pan (recipe on graham cracker crumb box) or into a store bought deep dish 9 inch Graham Cracker pie shell. Bake at 325 for about 45 minutes. Check to see that center is almost set. Turn off the oven and leave cheesecake in for 1 hour. Open the oven door slightly and leave for 1 hour. Cool on wire rack to room temperature. Refrigerate overnight. Remove from pan and garnish with fresh fruit. If you choose a pie shell instead of spring form pan, bake for 1 hr and then cool on wire rack - skipping the additional oven time with teh oven off.

    In large saucepan, combine cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, margarine and milk.


    Stir over low heat until smooth. Add to drained fettuccini and toss lightly. Sprinkle with fresh Parmesan cheese if desired. Makes 4 servings.



    Buy a package of chicken legs. Preheat oven to 350. Put 2 tbsp butter in a 9x13 glass baking dish and melt it in oven. Then wash chicken legs with water in sink( dont forget to use few drops of bleach and soap to clean sink). Put legs in baking dish. Season generously with seasoning salt, and use just a little salt and pepper too all over the legs. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and put on center rack in middle of oven. Let cook for 25 minutes. Turn over. Cook another 20 minutes. Should be done. Check for doneness by poking one big leg with fork or thin knife to see if juices run clear. If they dont put back in for few more minutes, but they should be done. \





    For sides, make white rice( follow instructions on package) and serve with butter and salt and pepper. Also you can make mixed veggies in the microwave. Just buy the frozen kind or any veggies you want as long as its frozen and follow microwave instructions on package.
    BAKED SALMON





    I salmon fillet


    Mayonnaise


    Lemon Pepper Season Salt


    Garlic Powder


    Onion Slices





    Take out a sheet pan, tear a piece of aluminum foil big enough to completely wrap the salmon fillet in with room so foil doesn't touch the top of the fish much.





    Place fillet skin side down on top of foil. Season fish with the above spices, just use a spinkle to cover all top of it..Spread a layer of mayonnaise on top of the salmon, don't worry that it messes up the spices. Top the fish with slices of onion...Oh, I forgot, sprinkle the fillet with Paprika at this point!





    Create a foil tent for your fillet trying to make it so the steam doesn't escape...Bake at 400 degrees F, check it after about 20 minutes. Fish is done when it flakes easily and is very hot...I like to open the foil the last five minutes to brown just a little.





    This is a fool proof recipe and can even be served to guests who will wonder how you became a great cook in such a short time!

Add 1 box of Penne pasta. Cover and set on med low heat. Cook until pasta is done to your liking.
