Fried Chicken With Cream Gravy This is crunch and so good! Love the gravy too! 1 chicken cut up into separate pieces, about 3 lbs. 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 tsp. salt 3/4 tsp. pepper 1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning 1/2 cup light cream or haalf and half Vegetable oil Wash and dry chicken pieces; shake in a bag with flour, salt, pepper and poultry seasoning. Dip coated pieces in cream in pie plate; then dip in remaining flour mixture again to coat evenly. Pour enough oil into large skillet to make a depth of 1". Heat over moderate heat to 375 degrees on deep-fat frying thermometer (if you have one). If not, just test heat by sprinkling water into grease, if it pops, it's ready enough. Add chicken, skin side down. When underside of chicken starts to brown, lower heat and partially cover skillet with lid. Trun chicken pieces after 15 minutes. Continue cooking second side, uncovered, until browned and chicken is tender, 10 minutes longer. Drain on paper toweling. Keep warm. Serve with Cream Gravy, if you wish. Serves 4. Cream Gravy Pour off fat from skillet, leaving brown bits; return 2 tblsp. fat to pan. Stir in 2 tblsp. flour; heat until light brown. Remove from heat; gradually stir in 1 cup light cream. Return to heat; cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly. If too thick, add more cream. Taste and salt and pepper as needed. Makes about 1-1/4 cups. |

I found this recipe at Allrecipes.com. I haven't made it yet, but I sure am going to try it! It looks GREAT! | African Chicken Stew This delicious stew is inspired by my friend from Sierra Leone, West Africa, who cooks often for her family. Many ingredients can be modified. This is kind of a 'whatever is handy now' recipe. You can use a whole roasting chicken cut into bite-sized pieces, or just breasts and thighs if you prefer. Other suggested additions are turnips, carrots and celery. This looks great served over white rice with a garnish of fresh chopped cilantro, parsley or unsalted peanuts. Prep Time: approx. 10 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 35 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 45 Minutes. Makes 6 servings. Printed from Allrecipes, Submitted by Leah Shaw 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 (3 pound) roasting chicken, deboned and cut into bite size pieces 2 cloves garlic, crushed 1 onion, chopped 1 large potato, diced 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon ground coriander seed
| 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup water 3/4 cup unsalted natural-style peanut butter 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
| Directions 1 In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, heat oil over medium high heat. Add chicken, and brown quickly. Remove chicken from pan. Reduce heat to medium low, and add garlic, onion and potato to the pan; saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with cumin, coriander, black pepper, red pepper and salt. Do not let garlic brown. 2 Mix in water and browned chicken, and any accumulated juices. Place lid on skillet and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes. 3 Remove lid, and stir in the peanut butter and garbanzo beans. Make sure the peanut butter is blended in. Replace lid to simmer for 10 more minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender. Remove from heat, adjust seasoning, and serve.

In 13" by 9" baking pan, melt butter or margarine in oven. With potholders, remove pan from oven. With tongs, roll chicken in melted butter or margarine; sprinkle with 1 tsp. salt. Bake 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet over medium heat, in 1 inch boiling water, heat broccoli and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to boiling; cover and cook 1 minute; drain. In medium bowl, stir undiluted soup, milk and ginger until well blended. Push chicken to one end of baking dish; arrange broccoli at other end; pour soup mixture over all. Cover with foil and bake 21 minutes more or until chicken and broccoli are tender. Serve with rice. Makes 4 servings. |
