From: arielle@taronga.com (Stephanie da Silva) CHICKEN PASTRY OR B'STILA ========================= Ingredients: ------------ 1 chicken 1/2 teaspoon turmeric a tablespoon of mixed herbs or "bouquet garni" 3 large onions, peeled and minced 3 tablespoons oil 1/2 cup butter, margarine or diet margarine, clarified 7 eggs beaten 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup chopped cilantro or parsley 2 cups ground toasted almonds 1 tablespoon cinnamon 12 filo dough sheets 1/4 cup powdered sugar. salt, fresh black pepper pinch of saffron Preparation: ------------ Place chicken in a roasting pan. If you use saffron threads, let them soak in half a cup of water. Pour on fowl. Sprinkle salt, pepper, turmeric and mixed herbs on top. Roast chicken in oven at 400 f for 45 minutes to an hour. Cool. Remove skin and all bones. Cube chicken. Keep giblets, except for the neck, with all the spicy, herbed juice. Set aside. In a skillet, saute minced onions in oil. Place in a bowl. In the same skillet, with a little oil, fry the beaten eggs mixed with salt and chopped cilantro. Place in another small bowl. Still in the same oiled skillet, toast almonds until slightly brown and grind them in a food processor. Set aside. Clarify the shortening, and everything is ready to be put together now. On the bottom of the pan used to roast the chicken, after washing and greasing it, stack 2 sheets of filo dough, letting edges overhang. Brush on top some of the clarified shortening. At broil, rapidly brown these 2 sheets. Then add cubed chicken, with all spices and juice. Spread again 2 more dough sheets with some shortening brushed on. Broil rapidly. Add soft mixture of eggs with cilantro. Cover with 2 more greased sheets. Broil rapidly. Add almonds mixed with cinnamon and sugar. Finish with your best-looking greased sheets. Tuck in all dough and bake 25 to 30 minutes at 400 F until golden grown. Cool slightly. Sprinkle with remaining powdered sugar, making a decorative crisscross with cinnamon on top. Serve hot. It can be reheated several times. It can also be frozen. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

From: arielle@taronga.com (Stephanie da Silva) CHICKEN RAVIOLI IN PORT MUSTARD CREME SAUCE WITH MANGO GINGER CHUTNEY ===================================================================== (serves 4 as a pasta dish before the main meal.) Pasta ----- 1 cup flour 1 egg 1 tbl water 1 tbl olive oil (gives gummy texture) Prepare two sheets of pasta rolled out to "6" on the Atlas machine. You can knead by hand forever or use a food processor on the dough. Egg wash -------- 1 egg 2 tbl water Whisk together and brush on one side of each piece of pasta. The egg wash acts as a glue to hold the ravioli together during cooking. Filling ------- 6 oz. cooked chicken (Chef Johnson called for smoked) 1/6 cup cream 1/4 cup mango ginger chutney (buy from your grocery store!) Combine in food processor, or chop chicken finely with knife and mix together. (Chef Johnson called for some cayenne and more chutney, but I cut it down to my taste because I thought it was too spicy.) Preparation: ------------ Prepare ravioli by putting 1-1 1/2 tsp lumps of chicken filling on one piece of pasta in a 2xN matrix where N is ~10-12. Place other piece of pasta over this. Egg side of both sheets should be toward the inside. Cut ravioli with a knife or a ravioli wheel. Seal ravioli with fingers or by pressing with a fork. Flour well and set aside. You should make 20-24 ravioli. You will need 16 to serve. Expect a few to fall apart while cooking. When sauce is ready, cook ravioli until they rise. Sauce ----- 1 cup port wine 8 peppercorns, bruised or cracked 1 bay leaf 2 shallots, diced Reduce over high heat until nearly dry. 1 cup chicken stock Add and reduce until total volume is about 1/4 cup. 1 cup cream 1 tbl mustard Add, whisk, and reduce until sauce naps. (Napping means: dip a spoon in the sauce, wipe the back horizontally with your finger. If the sauce does not run it is thick enough.) Strain the sauce and keep warm. (Strained sauces come from French tradition. You want a smooth pretty sauce with no chunks of pepper and lumps of shallots.) I adjusted the proportions in this recipe from Chef Johnson's original. I used less cream and more port because I like the greater flavor and color from the port. Prepare four individual plates. On each plate, pour an equal portion of the sauce. Makes sure the sauce coats the entire center of the plate but none of the side. Place four cooked ravioli on the place, and scoop about 2 tbl of the chutney on the middle of the plate. It should look very pretty. What sort of wine would go with this course? I've had it with a Chardonnay and with a German Riesling. In both cases, the ginger, etc., overpowered the wine. Perhaps an Alsatian Gewurztraminer would do better, or perhaps this course just isn't suited to wine. :-( %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Then take skewers and put onion-chicken-mushroom-chicken-green-pepper-chicken. Do this for until all the chicken is used up. I don't like to make these until the guests come over. Participation required. I also like to use different colors of peppers - orange, red, etc. Grill these and brush with the leftover marinade. Be sure to constantly rotate. Will take about 15 minutes. This is absolutely required when making chicken souvlaki: Grilled Pita: ------------- Store bought Pita Bread Olive Oil dab of butter Grill the pita bread until they are kinda toasty on the outside.

From: holland@matt.ksu.ksu.edu (Rich Holland) CHICKEN STIR FRY ================ Ingredients: ------------ Couple of chicken breasts 1 or 2 white onions bunch of scallions (green onions, about 12) sugar black pepper soy sauce garlic powder onion powder chicken broth (boullion cube in a coup of water will do). Directions: ----------- Put about 1/2 to 1 cup of peanut oil in wok, and put on stove on highest heat -- keep the heat on HIGH the entire time you cook in the wok. Add the chicken when the oil is hot and cook until tender and no longer pink. While cooking, sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper on chicken. Add about 2 tablespoons of sugar over chicken for sweet taste. More or less is fine. When the chicken is done browning, add the chicken broth and vegetables. Cook for about 3 or 4 more minutes, until broth starts to steam. Squirt soy sauce over the whole thing, probably about 1/4 to 1/2 cup. Add some cold water with corn starch to thicken the sauce, how much is up to you, I usually use about 3 tablespoons in 1/3 cup or so. Stir it all together to coat everything evenly and serve over a bed of rice. Serve HOT. Note: ----- The more sugar you add, the sweeter it will taste. I've used up to 1/2 of a cup in the past. You basically want to coat the chicken with sugar granuals when adding the sugar...This makes a nice sweet sauce, sort of brownish in color (from the soy sauce)... %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
From: steo@dopey.cc.utexas.edu.cc.utexas.edu (Sharon Teo) CHICKEN STIR FRY ================ For most stir fry recipes (at least the brown coloured gravy), this is the recipe: Basic Sauce: ------------ 1 tbsp oyster sauce (I use "Lee Kum Kee" brand, from the oriental market) 1 tsp soy sauce pinch of salt 1/4 tsp sugar (or MSG) 1 tsp corn flour a little gound white pepper-optional Method: ------- Mix all the above ingredients in 1/4 cup water till well blended. Add in to cooked chicken, vegetables, etc, and stir mixture over the heat until gravy (sauce) thickens. Hints: ------ Marinate and stir fry the chicken, by itself, first. Brown some garlic and/or ginger(according to your recipe), then stir-fry the vegetables. When vegetables are 3/4 cooked, add in the stir-fried chicken, basic sauce, and stir-fry till the sauce thickens and is no longer 'cloudy' looking. Always remember to vary the sauce ingredients according to taste, and if sauce becomes too thick, add in a little more water, and if it thicken enough, add more cornflour blended into a little room temperature water, first.(if the sauce is not thick enough) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

From: Vince McCoy I not real good at giving a number of servings for my recipes. It depends upon the size of the chicken and how hungry you are but I guess this should serve at least 4 people. It is a very flexible recipe that can be adjusted for personal taste. CHICKEN VERSUVIUS ================= Qty Measurement Preparation Ingredient --- ----------- ----------- ---------- 1 whole cut-up or parts Chicken 1/4 cup Olive Oil 6-8 cloves whole Garlic 6-8 peeled/quartered Potatoes 1 tsp dried Rosemary freshly ground Black Pepper 1/2 cup White Wine to taste Salt Instructions: ------------- Heat olive oil in oven proof skillet. Add whole garlic cloves, saute until cloves are a golden brown on all sides. Prepare chicken by washing throughly and then drying with paper towels. When garlic is brown remove from pan and set aside. Add chicken pieces to skillet, cook until skin is brown (chicken will not be done yet). Add quartered potatoes to the pan, fitting around and between chicken pieces. Return garlic cloves to the pan also fitting around chicken and potatoes. Season all with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle rosemary over all. Add white wine around edges of skillet so as not to wash off spices from chicken and potatoes. Bring to a simmer on top of the stove, then cover skillet and place in a 400 degree oven. Cook until chicken is very tender and potatoes are soft, about 35-40 minutes. Variations: ----------- Fresh rosemary may also be used in this dish, increase amount to 1 tablespoon.

Add eight cups water, half the chopped onions, the garlic, cinnamon stick and 2 tsps of salt. Bring to the boil, cover and continue to cook until the chicken is tender enough for the meat to fall off the bones. While the chicken is cooking, drain the soaked chickpeas and place in a large pot with four cups of water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer vigorousy until just tender. Drain and set aside. In another saucepan lightly brown the almonds in a little ghee. Remove and set aside. Add 1/4 cup ghee to the saucepan and heat. Fry the meat in the ghee, stirring occasionally unti brown all over. Turn down the heat to simmer and cook until nearly tender - approximately 15 minutes.

From: erw@keynes.econ.duke.edu (E. Roy Weintraub) CHINESE-JEWISH CHICKEN ====================== Ingredients: ------------ 1 roasting chicken Master sauce Instructions: ------------- In large pot, cover chicken 3/4 to all the way with sauce. Boil chicken for 20 to 30 minutes, turning the chicken over halfway through the time. Chicken then is removed from pot -- it will be golden color. Place chicken, breast down, on roaster in preheated very hot oven, 475-500F. Roast until done, turning chicken to breast side up halfway through. Cooking time will vary with weight of chicken. Total cooking time is around an hour for a 2-3 lb roaster. Chicken is done when juices run clear. Chicken will have very crisp skin, and will be very moist inside, from the two cooking modes. Sometimes, in the summer when I don't want the oven heat, I put the chicken, cut into two split halves, on the grill instead of the oven. Carve as a roast chicken, and use plum sauce as a dip. (We usually serve this chicken with rice and stir fried broccoli.) Master sauce: ------------- equal parts water and soy sauce with garlic, ginger, and spring onions added Simmer at length to combine flavors. Can be frozen, reboiled, skimmed, etc. I have a sauce that is a half-dozen years old at present - I add more garlic, ginger, onions, soy sauce, to replenish as needed. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

C.A.E. le Clercq) COCONUT CHICKEN WITH PINEAPPLE ============================== Here a recipe for what we call 'kipfilet' (chicken fillet): part of the chicken with no bones or fat. It's really easy, but very delicious. Ingredients: ------------ 1 chicken fillet per person. 1 egg, beaten, in a dish chipped coconut, in a dish a tin with pineapple slices pepper salt sojasauce Instructions: ------------- Rub fillets in with pepper and salt and sojasauce. Dip first in beaten egg and then in chipped coconut, so that they get entirely covered. Put them in a frying pan with some not too hot butter: be careful that the fillets don't stick to the pan and that the coconut does not get too dark. They will be done in about ten minutes. Check to be sure. Then take them out and keep them warm. Turn up the heat and put in the same frying pan pineapple slices along with the juice from the tin. Keep the slices moving and brown them in about a minute or two. Serve the pineapple and the juice with the chicken. Goes well with rice and a salad. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
From: jmk5u@virginia.edu (Jeremy) COLD CHICKEN RECIPE =================== I don't have the exact proportions with me but an excellent dish in the summer is cold poached chicken with tuna basil sauce. Poach (or even grill) the chicken breasts in the morning and chill them for at least six hours. The night before combine reasonable proportions of canned tuna fish(one can), yogurt (just a touch), about 1/3 of a cup of basil, juice from half a lemon and three or four anchovies. Mix it all in the blender and achieve a decent consistancy by adjusting the ingredients. To serve put a dollop of the sauce on the chicken, sprinkle with paprika and garnish with a basil leaf. Excellent and easy. (Sorry about not having the complete recipe.) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
From: dfw@thumper..bellcore.com (Doris Woods) CORNISH GAME HENS ================= Ingredients: ------------ 1 cornish game hen cut-up in pieces, ie: wings, thighs breast etc Olive oil 1/2 tbs butter 2 baby eggplant peeled and diced Asparagus stalks in thirds (I used leftovers) 1 cubano pepper chopped 1 small onion chopped 2 cloves garlic minced 1 tsp ginger Curry powder to taste 1/2 cup sour cream (can substitute plain yogurt) Leftover Lentil Dahl (optional) 2 cups chicken stock 1/2 cup dried rice 1/2 cup dried orzo Instructions: ------------- Start the stock for the rice and orzo. When the stock is boiling add the rice and orzo and lower to simmer. Cook like you would normal rice. In a heavy frying pan (mine is a cast iron chicken pan) on high add the olive oil (use your own judgement) and butter. Sautee the onions, garlic and pepper with the ginger and a liberal amount of curry powder. Add the pieces of hen and brown. Remove pieces and set aside. Add eggplant and asparagus until eggplant is tender being careful not to burn onion etc. (Now if you are not going to use Dahl add about a 2/3 cup of stock and let simmer for about 5 min until hot. Then take a little of the juice out and mix with sour cream. Put mixture back in and add hen. Cover and simmer for about 30 to 40 min until juices run clear when you puncture chicken with fork). If you are going to use some Dahl, skip the stock and add the sour cream or yogurt right away. Mix until creamy, then add the Dahl also mixing well. Place hen pieces on top. Simmer covered for 30 to 40 min. Serve over rice-orzo mixture Add salt and pepper to taste Although I added a little salt I didn't use pepper because it was seasoned pretty well. Things you can add that would probably be good: Chopped tomato mushroom spinach %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

From: todd@kastle.com (Todd A. Scalzott) DIJON CHICKEN ============= Mix about a cup of flour with some black pepper, thyme, and marjoram. About a tsp of each. Dredge boneless chicken breasts in the flour and then brown in butter in a skillet. Remove the chicken, add about a 1/4 cup of vermouth and cook down to a glaze. Add a couple tablespoons of dijon mustard (I like LOTS), stir, add about a half cup of heavy cream, and simmer. Add approx 1/4 cup of chicken broth, mixed with some of the leftover flour mixture and pour in the sauce to thicken. Add a tablespoon or so of lemon juice. Add the chicken breasts and simmer until hot. Delicious. Variations: ----------- 1) Cut up the chicken breasts into small strips before dredging in the flour. It really tastes better this way, I think. 2) Add sliced fresh mushrooms to the sauce, letting them cook up a bit with the sauce. 3) Add artichoke hearts to the sauce, just before adding back the chicken. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
From: giber@pollux.cs.uga.edu (Carolyn Giberson) GARLIC-GINGER ROASTED CHICKEN ============================= Here is a good thing to do with a whole chicken: 1. prepare a marinade using soy sauce (1/2 cup), honey (1/4 cup), vinegar (any kind, 1/4 cup), chopped garlic (2 tbsp or so), and minced ginger root (2 tbsp or so). The proportions are a matter of taste. 2. Place your rinsed chicken in a ziplock bag and cover with marinade. Seal to exclude air so chicken is fully contacted by the marinade. Let marinate at least 8 hours or overnight for a more intense flavor. 3. When ready to roast, place breat side down in a shallow pan. Roast about 20 - 25 minutes per pound, 350 F. Baste with the marinade or pan juices every 15 minutes. Turn the chicken breast side up during the last half hour. Chicken should be a nice mahogany color when done. Keep a close eye on it though; the marinade can scorch a little with all that honey in it. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
