Recipes

I've had several requests on facebook for some chicken recipes so I'm posting them here.

Mexican Chicken
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 pkg taco seasoning
monterey jack cheese slices
salsa
sour cream

Dust chicken with taco seasoning and place it in a baking pan.  Top each breast with a scoop of salsa.  Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.  Add slice of cheese to top and bake until melted.  Serve over rice with a scoop of sour cream. 


Ranch Style Chicken
Boneless skinless chicken breasts
Thick cut bacon
bacon grease
honey
dijon mustard
lemon juice
sharp cheddar cheese

Mix 1/2 cup dijon with 1/2 cup honey, and juice of 1/2 lemon.  Whisk until smooth.  Pound chicken to 1/2 or 3/4 inch thickness.  Add marinade to chicken and refrigerate 3-4 hours.  Fry bacon and reserve 1/4 cup of grease.  Clean skillet and then heat the reserved grease.  Cook chicken 1-2 minutes on each side.  Remove chicken to baking sheet.  bake at 400 for 10 minutes.  Add bacon and cheese and cook until cheese is melted.  This is a Pioneer Woman recipe.

2 tbsp dijon mustard
1/4 cup bourbon whiskey

Slow Cooked Lemon chicken

Pat chicken dry w/paper towels  Combine the oregano, seasoned salt and pepper; rub over the chicken.  In a skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken in butter and then place in the crock pot.  Add water, lemon juice, garlic, and bouillon to skillet; bring to a boil.  Pour over the chicken.  Cover and cook 3-4 hours on low.  cook until meat juices run clear.  Serve over rice.  I sometimes make lemon rice to go with this dish.
