Chicken fillet recipes ?? ... Need one for tonight : )

Hello all,


I have 2 (or I can use 4) chicken fillets defrosting for tonight's dinner ... & I'm bored with my usual recipes for DP & I :rolleyes:


Can you all throw some recipes my way :dance: ... I'd be ever so grateful :D


I have a heap of mushrooms, some big carrots, heap of brown onions, ... some light sour cream ... jar of sundried tomatoes, jar of pesto cream basil, jar of red curry, frozen corn kernels & beans, and basmati rice & all sorts of dry pastas.

(Hey, I know we haven't done our weekly grocery shopping yet !!!:doh:)

Please let me know of any other ingredients in case I might have them at hand ;)


Huge big " THANKS " in advance :clap:

I normally make a few different one's
Chicken in coke, apricot chicken, homestead chicken pie, mainly casserole type dishes.

We're having an Asian style noodle salad for dinner tonight.
You need rice noodles, fresh mint, fresh coriander, fish sauce, sugar, chilli, fresh lime, chicken breast.

Prepare the noodles then drain and chill them.
Shred about a cup of Mint and coriander and toss it on top of the noodles.
Slice your chicken breat and give it quick stir fry.
Mix a sauce with equal parts of fish sauce, lime juice and sugar and chilli to taste. if you have some spring onions chop one into the sauce.

Put the chicken on top of the noodles and herbs then pour the sauce over and toss it all together and then you eat it.
It's yummy with some stir-fried veges on the side....

Or with those ingedients a chicken and mushroom creamy pasta....

Chicken in coke:
Roll diced chicken(500gms approx) in cream of chicken soup(or savory chicken soup pkt not instant). Place in a casserole dish and sprinkle remander of soup on top, pour 1 can 375ML of coke on top of chicken and bake for 1.5 hours on 180degrees, you can also add whole sliced onions to this dish and I normally serve on basmarti rice. It turns out like a gravy on the chicken. (can be cooked in a slow cooker)


Apricot chicken:
Apricot nector tin 400ml, 1pkt french onion soup, onion if desired.
Mix apricot nector and french onion soup thicken on stove, Brown chicken coated in plain flour, pour nector mix over chicken in a casserole dish and bake for 1.5 hours on 180 degrees. ( can be cooked in a slow cooker)

I'll look up the homestead pie for you and post here shortly, hope these might help!

you could stuff the chicken breasts with chopped sundried tomatoes and cheese. Serve with vegies onthe side

A sauce with mushies and sour cream - i would pan fry onions and mushies then add a bit of wine or stock to deglaze, then stir in some sour cream and parsly if you have some - if not, leave it out. Just pour over grilled chicken and vegies.

GRACIE, ... Yeh I found some frozen puff pastry sheets (gee, I didn't know I had any until you asked Gracie & I went looking in the freezer, LOL ;))


MrsB26, ... Oh that sounds yummo with the basil pesto, mushrooms, sour cream AND ... I have dry fettuccine pasta ... NOW, how do I make it ??? :think: Oh, I'm so ' not ' a super cook after all these years :rolleyes:


MrsB26, - If you could pretty please let me know how to make the sauce for the pasta ... Oh, that would be brilliant :dance:


Thanks heaps everyone for your replies, ... Keep them coming as I can always do with more recipes for another chicken fillet dish next week !!!!!!!

you could make chicken parcels

cut the chicken into small pieces and lightly pan fry
wait for the chicken to cool, (put in fridge if need to)
take a few sheets of pastry out of freezer to defrost a little
place chicken, grated cheese and any other ingredients in centre of one sheet of pastry and wrap up like a parcel
other ingredients could include things like tinned pineapple pieces, sundried tomatoes, anything you like!
grease a baking tray with lots of butter
place parcels on tray all sealed up well, brush over with some egg
bake for about 30 mins 180 dg. yummo!

Oh, thanks an absolute bunch Gracie :wiggle: ... I'm gonna make them as a side dish with MrsB26 pasta dish (that's if she gets back to me with how to make it ;))


... You have a super night Gracie, OMG now I feel so hungry ... Yep, might be cuppa & bickie time right now, LOL :dance:


Oh no, looks like MrsB26 has gone off line !!!! ... Does anyone know how to make the sauce she suggested just before ??


... Do I just heat up the sour cream with mushrooms (or cook the mushrooms 1st ??) & add a dollop of basil pesto ?? ... Do I pan fry the chicken, & if so, is it better to cube (diced) in small pieces or doesn't it matter ??


THANKS AGAIN, ... HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP A DESPERATE BORING COOK, augh !!!!!!

Mushroom and chicken -
Brown some chicken and a bit of onion, chuck in mushrooms with garlic and cook them until soft then stir in some sour cream and pesto and salt to taste and pour over fettucine.

:cheer: DACHLOSTAR YOU ARE THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cheer:

Sorry!!!!
Needed to go have a sleep. I would have said to make it the same way as daclostar. I hope it was yummy xoxo

Lorelle what did you end up with????

Snoopea, I'm going to try out the chicken with coke for novelty value!!

Hi ya KIM,

Been thinking of you a lot !!! I so hope you have enough support there !!!

... Well, I made GRACIE's " puff pastry parcels" (THANKS GRACIE :dance:). I had two sheets & filled each with pan cooked diced chicken & chopped (from jar) sundried tomatoes (I was worried if I put too much it would be soggy BUT in fact I could have put alot more sundries tomatoes) & then slivered cheese ... Sadly I hadn't done the grocery shopping (usually I have grated cheese) & only cheese I had was 2 slices of cheddar so could have put another 1 or 2 more slices if I had :rolleyes: I think it was about half a chicken fillet in each parcel.

I cut a parcel in half & DP & I had a half each ... and had the other parcel wrapped in foil heated the next night in the oven. I actually reckon it tasted even nicer the next night :)

So, the "puff pastry parcel "- Half of one was like a side dish on the same plate (I loathe washing dishes,LOL) ... AND made Mrs26 " chicken pasta dish" with the help Of DACHLOSTAR (THANKS TO YOU BOTH Mrs26 & Dachlostar :clap:) as the main dish.

I had fettuccine ... and I made the pasta sauce consisting of Sour Cream, Basil Pesto, chopped Onion, heap of sliced mushrooms & 2 cloves of crushed garlic & bit of salt :) (Um, ... so nice we had seconds ;))

... Was absolutely so YUMMY, & Adam even took some leftovers to work for lunch the next day !!

WILL BE MAKING BOTH AGAIN !!!!!! :lol:

I'm gonna make SNOOPEA"S "Chicken Pie" next week, yeh - sounds so good :lol:
