I have 3 good sized chicken breasts out for tea, but have no idea what to do with them tonight!
we always have kantong, chicken schnitzal, chicken tonight, grilled chicken breast etc, I am after something different and tasty, but not spicy.
Any ideas??? Thanks
We do Spiced Chicken with Honey and serve on rice
500 g Chicken Breast Fillets
1 Tablespoon margarine
half cup honey
8 teaspoons german mustard (which I think equates to 2 tablespoons)
1 teapsoon mild curry powder
* Melt margarine, add honey, mustard and curry powder, mix well
* Arrange chicken, single layer, in a baking dish
* Pour honey mixture over chicken
* Cook for approx. 45 mins at 190 degrees. BASTE FREQUENTLY!
This was a recipe I got from my mum. It was suitable for people who were on Dialysis.
It very yummy!

we often coat chicken in egg white then in either grated parmasen or tasty chesse. cheese melted ayou cook it and keeps chicken moist. yummmoooo!!!
Have you got any ham and cheese? You could make some Cordon Bleu's.
oohhhh thanks girls,
Nic, we had a creamy chicken based sauce with rice last night, lol that is why I am finding it so hard to be creative tonight!
I am being lazy and using the bulk pack of chicken over 2 nights instead of freezing it and having to defrost something else! heheh
Lisa that sounds great, will keep that one and get some port! yum
Meegm - do you think I could substitute the cottage cheese with something else?
I have everything but the cottage cheese?
Thanks AJP and Jazmum!
Yeah for sure - you could just use noraml cheese - actually you can use anything you like - i have made a steak type thing with finely chopped baby spinch, sundreid tomatoe and garlic and finely chopped onion.. all works the same..
Ace, I think I am going to give it a go, just change the cheese and put fresh tomato ( no sundried) but still do the bacon and sauce - can't wait - yum
How long do you think roughly in the oven 30/40mins?
Relle,
here are two recipes I often throw together when Im sick of traditional chicken meals:
Coat them with some seasoning (whatever you have in your pantry), some lemon juice or mustard and grill them and then cut up into pieces and put over a salad of rocket, cucumeber and tomato and drizzle with some balsalmic vinegar and olive oil (or any other dressing you like) and you have your very own warm chicken salad?
Or you can make some delicious pasta:
- heat some olive oil
- Brown 1 onion
- Add I cubed carrot
- Add capsicum or any other veg you desire
- Add in approx three chopped tomoatoes (or 1 can chopped tomato)
- Garlic
- peper and salt
- add chicken - cook to your liking
- Add 1/2 cup chicken stock
- Once all this has simmered and all ingredients are cooked, add in your boiled pasta, stir and eat!
good luck!
Chop it up into finger sizes and dip in butter then coat in deb/parmesan crumbing add some garlic powder & pepper. Cook in a hot oven turning twice. Serve with Pesto Mayo or Roasted Capsicum mayo and salad & potatoes :D
Yum! Also great as a snack for drink nights...
*hugs*
Cailin
oohhhh these all sound yum!
I am printing them all out to keep! Thanks girls keep em coming!
Chicken wrapped in bacon is nice
Chop the chicken breasts into three or four peices, wrap a peice of long bacon around it and stab a toothpick in it to hold it together. Cook them in the oven.
Honey Mustard chicken schnitzels
Serves 4
4 Chicken breast s
4 tbsp wholegrain mustard
2 tbsp honey
2 tsp lemon
salt and pepper
breadcrumbs
Flatten chicken breast slightly.
Combine mustard, honey, lemon juice and salt and pepper and pour over chicken.
Leave for 20 minutes to half an hour.
Remove each breast from marinade, don't drain, and press breadcrumbs onto each side.
Shallow fry and serve with mashed potato and steamed greens. Very tasty.
Relle - did you end up having the stuffed chicken - i also made it aswell - just thinking about it made me so hungry.....
Hi Meegm - I did! and it was yum! I stuffed them with cheese and tomato and wrapped them in bacon.
Thanks so much girls for the ideas, but I will be printing them all out and giving them all a go! lol
Sweet glad you liked it - i was thinking the same - some of them sound so nice dont they
makes me hungry just reading them
Cailin, are these something that you make, or buy pre-made?:
Serve with Pesto Mayo or Roasted Capsicum mayo
