Once in a while, I’d get this craving for pita bread, wholemeal pita bread, that is. And no, I am not pregnant but thank you for your concern.
I’m just being my usual food-loving self. So, when I want pita bread, then it is what we have for dinner. Other than being healthy and wholesome and all, it is pretty easy to prepare with minimal cooking. Really, I’m not lying.
When we talk about chicken breast meat, I can safely say it is pretty much our staple food at home. That’s why I even have a chicken recipes series or chicken breast recipes series. That’s because each time I cook, there must always be chicken. What can I say? We all love chicken.
Now, enough raving about the chicken and let’s get on to the three-step, stir fried chicken breast meat with Thai basil. Why three step? Well, because it isn’t four steps or one step or any other step. Just three easy steps. You slice the chicken, . . . → Read More: Chicken breast recipes: Stir-fried chicken breast meat with basil
This is one of my baked chicken breast recipes that is probably one of the easiest to prepare because it involves only three easy steps. Now, in my previous post on Chicken Recipes: Chicken Curry Kapitan, I mentioned that I used some of the curry paste from that dish to make this dish. So, do refer to that post for the curry recipe. Otherwise, you can always use any type of curry paste you have on hand, either a home made one or pre-packaged ones or even bottled ones. It doesn’t really matter.
Chicken Curry Kapitan is probably The Food Critic’s favourite curry since it always evoke such good memories of his granny’s wonderful nyonya food. When it comes to curry, though I have all the recipes, I’m just too lazy short of time to get all the ingredients and blend it into a paste. Heck, we have modern packaged curry pastes after all!
Anyway, we can never find a really good packaged chicken curry kapitan paste so I went to my most favourite convenient spice stall at the wet market and asked her to pack for me the . . . → Read More: Chicken recipes: Chicken Curry Kapitan
This is the third post in my how to cook quinoa series after I fell in love with this super grain with my very first quinoa cooking experience. I have to say that after that first few times using quinoa (as replacement of rice) I did manage to come up with quite a few variations of cooking it.
Well, if you have not tried quinoa before, do not be intimidated. It is pretty simple and very, very easy to cook. And if you think it will taste weird or anything just from the looks of it, let me . . . → Read More: How to cook quinoa series – Chicken and Mushrooms Quinoa
I have this thing for baked chicken breast recipes, mainly because it is so easy to prepare and secondly because it is healthy, lean white meat cooked in an oil-free way. Now, baked chicken are usually soft and moist so what if I wanted something crunchy? I do love fried chicken but it is not all that healthy to be eating fried chicken all the time. Besides, deep frying stuff always left the kitchen oily and that means I have to do loads of clean-up. Uggghhh…the only thing I hate about cooking is the cleaning . . . → Read More: Chicken recipes: Crunchy baked chicken recipe
Putting apples and chicken may seem a tad weird but I have good reason to use apples. For one thing, apples are healthy and they are one of the fat burning foods you should have in your diet. For another thing, do you know that apples could act as a natural tenderizer for meat? It is true. Especially if you use green apples where the acid content is higher. Apple juice has been used to season meat overnight for really tender meat so I figured, using fresh apples to bake it with chicken should do the . . . → Read More: Chicken Recipes: Baked Chicken Breast with Apples
