Chicken Cutlets with Grape Shallot Sauce - 7 pts

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-04 Apr 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 chicken breast cutlets, trimmed of fat (about 1 pound)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
5 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
2 cups halved seedless green or red grapes
1 cup white wine
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1. Place flour in a shallow dish. Sprinkle chicken with salt and
pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour (reserve excess flour). Heat 3
teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the
chicken until golden on the first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to
medium, turn the chicken and cook until the other side is golden, 2 to
4 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.

2. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the pan and heat over medium
heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until just starting to brown, 2
to 3 minutes. Add grapes and cook, stirring occasionally, until just
starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with 5 teaspoons of the
reserved flour; stir to coat. Add wine and broth; bring to a boil,
stirring constantly. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring
occasionally and scraping up any browned bits, until the sauce is
reduced and thickened, about 8 minutes. Stir in parsley.

3. Return the chicken to the pan, turning to coat with sauce, and cook
until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve the chicken with the
sauce on top.

One of the Test Kitchen's favorites, this quick sauté pairs wine and
grapes in a luscious sauce. If you've never used grapes in a sauce
before - try it - you won't be disappointed. This is simple enough for
a weeknight, but elegant enough for entertaining. Make it a meal:
Serve with brown basmati rice or mashed sweet potatoes and Chard with
Shallots, Pancetta & Walnuts.

Corn Fritter Cakes - 7 pts

Recipe By : Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-04 Apr 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal -- medium-grind,
preferably stone-ground
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch white pepper
2/3 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter -- melted
2 tablespoons minced bell pepper -- (red or green)
5 ears fresh corn kernels -- cut off the cob
OR 2 1/2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1/4 cup olive oil -- to 1/2 cup, as needed

Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large
bowl. Make a well in the center and add the milk, eggs and melted butter,
stirring just until combined. Fold in the bell pepper and corn with a
spatula. Do not over mix; the batter will have small lumps.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a griddle or heavy skillet over medium
heat. Using a 1/4-cup measure or large spoon for each fritter cake, pour
the batter onto the griddle. Cook until crispy; the edges should be dark
brown and dry and the bottoms golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn once,
cooking the other side until golden, about 1 minute. Drain on a double
layer of paper towels. Continue frying the fritter cakes, using 2
tablespoons of oil for each batch. Serve immediately or keep warm in a
preheated 250 degree F oven until ready to serve.

Makes 16 to 20 fritters. Serves 6 to 8.

NOTES : Corn fritter cakes are a good accompaniment to anything roasted.
These have a pronounced corn flavor and a nice texture that comes from the
large proportion of fresh vegetables in the batter. Serve with a tablespoon
of sour cream and a drizzle of hot pepper jelly or crock gravy.

Cottage Cheese Pan Rolls (Joan's Files)

Recipe By : Joan's Files
Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-04 Apr 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 packets yeast
1/4 cup warm water
3 cups smooth cottage cheese -- (small curd)
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs
1/2 cup warm water
6 cups flour -- (or more)

This is an old bakery recipe of mine that always get raves. People are
amazed how wonderful these come out. Please do try them!

Dissolve yeast in warm water till foamy. Heat the cottage cheese, sugar,
salt, baking soda and 1/2 cup water until warm. Add the yeast mixture and 1
cup flour; beat smooth with electric mixer. Gradually stir in by hand more
additional flour to knead into a smooth, soft but elastic dough. Place in
an oiled bowl, cover and let rise until double and light in volume.

Punch down and shape into 24 pieces or as large or small you want them.
Roll each piece into a ball shape. Place balls side by side in greased pan
(pans) and let rise until light and double in volume in a warm place.
Sprinkle tops of rolls with flour prior to baking for a bakery look.

Bake in a preheated 350-degree F. oven about 20 minutes or golden.

I bring these to parties and bake in those disposable aluminum pans.

Comment - I use small curd cottage cheese which blends more easily than the
large curd and gives these rolls a wonderful flavor and texture.

Couscous with Olives and Lemons - 7 pts

Recipe By : Gourmet, Quick Kitchen, February 2006
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-04 Apr 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 3/4 cups water

1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest

and bring to a boil. Stir in remaining ingredients, then cover pan and

NOTES : Couscous is one of the fastest side dishes to prepare, but this
jazzed-up, garlicky rendition shows that it need not be bland. Serve it
with the Moroccan-Spiced Chicken Paillards or with grilled Italian
sausages.

Crockpot Pot Roast

Recipe By : Pegg Seevers
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-04 Apr 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 pounds chuck roast -- trimmed of fat
1 package Lipton onion soup mix
2 1/2 cups water
1 medium onion -- sliced
1 small carrot -- cut into 3 pieces
2 stalks celery -- chopped
1 garlic clove
6 medium red potatoes

Browning the meat gives the gravy more flavor. It's not absolutely
necessary though. Place the meat into the crockpot, then the veggies;
sprinkle on the onion soup mix and pour water over the top. Cover and cook
on LOW for 8-10 hours or until meat is tender. Once the meat is done, if
you want to thicken the gravy, remove the meat and veggies from the pot and
place them on a serving platter. Mix together 2 tablespoons flour (Wondra
Flour never lumps...no need to mix with water) and 2-3 tablespoons water to
make a paste; whisk the paste into the hot liquid until thickened. You may
want to put the temperature on HIGH when you make the gravy.

Serves 6.

NOTES : Bobbie's Note: This was one of the best pot roast recipes I have
tried. I turned the crockpot to High for the first hour. Then reduced it to
Low for 8 more hours. Everything was done well and had a very nice
flavor. I had a 2+ pounds beef top round roast so cut all other ingredients
down to 2/3 of the amounts listed. I also added a bit of salt and pepper
with the soup mix. A complete meal.
