* Exported from MasterCook * Chicken Cacciatore Recipe By : Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 7-04 Apr 2004 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1/2 pound wide egg noodles -- (8-oz. bag) 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 medium onion -- peeled and coarsely chopped 2 garlic cloves -- minced or more to taste 2 carrots -- sliced 1 bell pepper -- seeded and sliced 29 ounces Italian Seasoned Tomatoes -- (two 14 1/2-oz. cans) 2/3 cup white wine -- or chicken broth 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce 1 cup ripe olives -- sliced in half 2 bay leaves 2 teaspoons dried basil -- crushed 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano -- crushed salt and pepper -- to taste 1 tablespoon cornstarch -- dissolved in 3 tablespoons cold water -- needed after cooked Cut chicken up into good size chunks or strips. Heat oil in non-stick deep skillet or pot. Stir-fry chicken, onions, peppers, garlic and carrots until chicken is done and vegetables are tender-crisp. Add tomatoes, wine, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, salt, pepper, basil and oregano. Stir in olives. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender. Bring back to a boil and stir in dissolved cornstarch stirring constantly. Serve over hot buttered noodles. Footnote : I like to simmer this dish about an hour or hour and a half, stirring every 15 minutes so it doesn't thicken on bottom and stick. When you want to reheat any kind of pasta, do not heat in micro-wave oven, just put in colander and run hot water over tossing while doing so. Micro-waving it will over cook it and it will become mushy.

Peel and cut tomatoes in half and remove seeds. Char pepper skins over burner or under broiler. Place in a paper bag and seal for about 10 minutes. Remove skin and chop. In an electric blender or food processor, combine half each of the tomatoes, onions, cucumber, and bell pepper with enough of the tomato-vegetable juice to facilitate blending. Add both of the chopped jalapeño peppers. Blend covered at high speed for at least 30 seconds to thoroughly purée the raw vegetables. In a large mixing bowl, combine the puréed vegetables with the remaining tomato-vegetable juice and chill for at least 2 hours. You may also elect to chill the serving bowls at this time. Meanwhile, rub the interior of a skillet with the clove of garlic, and add the olive oil. In the skillet, sauté the bread cubes over medium heat until golden brown. Set aside until serving time. Finely chop the remaining vegetables and combine in a small mixing bowl, along with the cilantro, while adding the red wine vinegar, Tabasco sauce, salt, and pepper. Thoroughly combine all ingredients and marinate at room temperature until serving time; or refrigerate if you won't be serving the gazpacho within an hour. To serve, place equal portions of the gazpacho in the chilled soup bowls. Add about 2 tablespoons of the marinated vegetable mixture to the center of each serving. Garnish with a few of the toasted bread cubes.

It is both easily digested and absorbed and consists of an uncomplicated rice soup. Congee tonifies the qi (pronounced "chee" and without a better description it is the "life force" or "life energy") and the blood (blood is thought of a bit differently and may be considered as solidified qi or the transport vessel of qi). Congee harmonizes digestion, and also acts as a "cooling" agent when there is heat and inflammation in the body. With the aid of a nursing mother supply of milk may be increased. Although rice is the most common grain for congee, a variety of additional vegetables, grains, and herbs can be added to enhance the therapeutic properties. Brown rice: diuretic, thirst-quenching, nourishing, good for nursing mothers Sweet rice : Used for diarrhea, vomiting, and indigestion Wheat : cooling, used for fevers, clears digestive tract, calming and sedating. Ginger : warming and antiseptic to the organs, used for cold digestive weakness, diarrhea, anorexia, vomiting, and indigestion. To make congee, take one cup of rice and simmer it in 5-6 times the amount of water. Cook for several hours using the lowest heat possible. A crock- pot works great. In making congee it is better to use too much water than too little. In Chinese medicine it is said that the longer congee cooks, the more "powerful" it becomes. http://www.abodehealth.com/benefits_of_congee.htm MC format by Hallie. White rice doesn't really contain as much nutritional value as many people think but it is easily digestible. I believe that where people had oatmeal or other grains those were used as effectively or possibly even more so. However, I also believe that a person should explore the foods of all cultures with a relatively open mind and be willing to benefit from them where possible.
