Recipes

[D-BOE34]

We have a little football in our lives but we still need to still take it in moderation to soften the blow after spring.

Any cooks on board? Wondering what your favorite breakfast, lunch or dinner recipes are. I am not a sweets guy so could care less for desserts. However, (sigh), if you feel like sharing it you can.


3 eggs, 5 oz filet, green red and banana peppers, jalapenos, mozzarella and shredded jack cheese, salsa, oregano, cayenne pepper, siracha, chicken seasoning and some celery. All mixed into a scramble and thrown together as a breakfast burrito.

Not for everyone but that's mine.

GO!

I normally don't cook because my wife loves to experiment. They other day, though, I made the best chicken parmesan I have ever tasted in my life. I never eat left overs but I made so much I ate it for three days straight.

The normal receipt ask for chicken breast but I used chicken tender meat.

In total there was probably 10 pieces of chicken.

First I dipped the chicken in a scrambled egg, then coated it with seasoned bread crumbs that come in a can.

Then I set up a pan with about an inch of Olive Oil and fried each side of the chicken until it was brown. Make sure it is not too well done. It still has to bake.

After all the chicken was done I got a pan out and put the chicken in, then put a 16oz can of tomato sauce on top of the chicken. The last thing to add is shredded parmesan cheese. I used a whole bag ( I like it cheesy)

Once that is complete, bake it for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Tasted great to me. You can add your own flavor to the tomato sauce and the seasoned bread crumbs.

The other thing I love to make is extremely spicy salsa.

The easy thing I do is get mixed tomatos (Rotel) and blend it with habenero sauce in a food processor.

Or you could get raw tomato's and habenero' s and boil them until they get soft. Then peal the skin off and blend them. Add your own flavor (salt, pepper, ect)

My wife gives me a day or two in the kitchen and then tells me to beat it (hehe). I cook like a man should. Little this, little that, beer here, "Babe! I got caught double fisting my beers again and can't finish the cooking. Will you poor my Jameson and finish my waffle when it dings? Don't forget the siracha and oatmeal on top!"





(Lots of sexual innuendos in that ****. Wow!)

Simplicity in the kitchen is my thing.

French Toast
Take a couple eggs (or more, depending how much you plan on making remember you can always use the leftover to make scrambled eggs) and beat in a bowl. Add a dab of milk (ever since we switched to Skim, my French Toast hasn't been as good so I think 2% is best). Dip bread (do not soak) of your choice in the eggs and throw on the stove. Can add any delicious topping (fruit, powder sugar, cinnamon sugar, etc.) after cooked.

Beau's Chicken
Get yourself some frozen Tyson chicken breasts. Throw on the stove. Add desired amount of Italian dressing (I use a pretty good amount) to the pan. Slice up some green, yellow, and red peppers and add to the pan. Cook until chicken is done and enjoy. Goes great with some instant white rice.

Beau's Chicken Nachos
Slice up some chicken breast (canned chicken may even do) and throw it on the stove. Slice or dice up some peppers and add those to the pan. (Can add diced onions or tomato if desired.) With the cheese, I like to go with Pepperjack. (I used the cheese cubes.) Add the cheese and some milk to the pan and make sure to stir everything frequently. Once the cheese is melted and the chicken thoroughly cooked, put on top of your desired chips and enjoy!

All these meals are REALLY good and clearly simple.

I have most of my go to's written down at work.

I'll post some tomorrow when I get home

Pizza at home:

-Make your own pizza dough or use a bread maker to make the dough
-Pre-cook the dough on a pizza stone, just to the point where it starts to develop a light crust
-pull out (not too early-or too late-Hahaha) and lay out the toppings: use a base of pesto sauce, layer of thinly sliced tomatoes, garlic to taste (in my house, that's like 5-7 cloves, minced), mozzarella cheese.
-Throw back in the oven until done.

I also like to add ham, red onion, sometimes chicken, chorizo.



This pizza is really good and I've never had complaints-always rave reviews.

I do enjoy cooking....

I usually make these sans the pomegranate molasses, but I would imagine that would only make it that much more amazing.

MIDDLE EASTERN CHICKEN BURGERS:

Ingredients
Burgers:

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 pound ground lean chicken
1/4 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, for brushing

Fixings:

4 whole wheat buns, toasted
1 tomato, thinly sliced
1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
Lettuce

Heat the olive oil in a skillet, add the onion, cinnamon, coriander, pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and parsley and cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool slightly. Stir in the chicken and yogurt until the onion are evenly mixed. Season with salt and pepper. Shape into 4 1/2-inch thick patties.

Cook in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sides of the burgers registers between 165 and 170 degrees F. Brush burgers with the pomegranate molasses and set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Serve on toasted buns with fixings.

French Toast"

Get a loaf of good sourdough (uncut)

2 eggs
Whole milk
Vanilla extract
Cinnamon
(Mix all of this together)

Cut slices into 1/2 inch thick slices and lay in egg bath and press gently on each side. You want the bread to soak up the liquid to create that custard like center. Then throw on to medium high skillet. Filp ONCE. It will crisp up on the outside and be soft on the inside.

(If you want savory french toast, add rosemary instead of cinnamon)

It will be the best french toast you've ever eaten. Just ask my wife. LOL


I will post a dish from South africa (my wife is from there) that has lamb and mac n cheese!! Gotta get it from her.

place meat in crockpot fat side up--if there is one--
to crockpot add:

1 C milk
1 tsp black pepper

This isn't a recipe, but if you like steak, soak them for 20 minutes in budweiser then empty that, and marinate them with A1 sauce, rock salt, Peppercorns, and Lawry's. The budweiser tenderizes the meat and the steaks will melt in your mouth like butter.

Umphreak, if you do that, use the cooking creme by Philly instead of just regular cream cheese. It'll cook better. I've used it in other dishes.

Chicken Enchiladas that I served to Louis Nix:

4 chicken breasts shredded (place chicken breasts in crock pot cover with chicken broth cook on high 4 hrs, or until shredded)
1 medium chopped onion
1 can black beans, drained
1 can Rotel with green chiles, drained
2 C brown or white rice (Not minute, and whatever taste you prefer)
1 C white cheddar
Flour Tortillas
1 Big can of Old El Paso Enchilada Sauce
1/2 cup lime juice
Fresh Cilantro

Cook your rice, when it has about 15 minutes left add lime juice and cilantro. Stir.
Put all ingredients together and mix up, spoon into tortillas and roll them up, cover with enchilada sauce, and cheddar cheese if you want, bake on 350 for about 15-20 minutes. This makes a lot, so make it for football parties, or holidays, or you can scale it down a tad and use 2 breast to shred and 1 C rice.

Best Brats in the world:

Slice a medium white onion and put it on the bottom of a large sauce pan. Add your brats on top of the onion. Cover in a mixture of (enough to submerge the brats, ususally a beer and almost a bottle) your favorite barbeque sauce, and a light beer. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for an hour. Let brats drain, and finish on the grill. Serve on your favorite buns, w/ your favorite mustard, and chopped onion. Deelish.

I wouldn't call this a recipe, but it was a concoction I came up with one night, possibly an "NDOM Moment."

Grab an onion or ten. (White, yellow, red or Vidalia, whatever is on hand – now that I mention it, Sweet Vidalia could be an excellent choice.)

Peel the onion(s), Slice off the top and most of the root end leaving a flat and stable "bottom."
Slice the onion(s) from the top to close to the bottom (a little more than half way – enough to open it up a bit and not too much to have it fall apart) in eighths.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Press horseradish into the gaps in the onion.
Sprinkle with Tobasco (or your preferred hot sauce)
Press in some minced garlic.
Stud with some jalepeño pepper slices (the ones in a can will do)
Drizzle with a little more olive oil.
Top with a bit of cheese (whatever you have on hand – when in the throes of The Munchies one can't be picky) though cream cheese was fine by me.
Bake for a while in a 400 degree oven for however long it takes for your hunger to overtake your patience ... or the cheese melts or begins to brown/burn.



Best served when alone or not within six feet of breathing distance of others who have not partaken.
