One-Pan Honey Rosemary Chicken

Image
  I really loved this. It had nice, subtle flavor, and you could use different vegetables if you're crazy and don't like carrots or potatoes or asparagus. I also just used a rotisserie chicken. I give it an 8.5 and it came from jaroflemons.com. Honey Rosemary Sauce ▢  3   Tablespoons   butter   (melted) I used 1 TBS and 2 TBS olive oil ▢  1   Tablespoon   minced garlic ▢  2   Tablespoons   fresh chopped rosemary ▢  1   teaspoon   salt ▢  1/2   teaspoon   black pepper ▢  3   Tablespoons   honey I used 2 TBS only ▢  1   Tablespoon   lemon juice Rosemary Chicken & Veggies ▢  1   Tablespoon   avocado oil   I used olive oil ▢  1   pound   chicken breasts   (thinly sliced) ▢  1   cup   sliced carrots ▢  2   cups   cubed red potatoes ▢  1/2   medium   lemon   (sliced) ▢  3   bu...

Emma's Mormon Chicken

  4½   cups   chopped cooked chicken 4-   oz   cream cheese,  room temperature 1   cup   cottage cheese ½   cup   sour cream 1   (10.5-oz)   can Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup ¼   tsp   garlic powder ¼   tsp   dried onion powder 1   sleeve   Ritz crackers,  crushed 5   Tbsp   butter You combine the dairy, the spices, and mix in the chicken (Emma uses rotisserie), and then you put this in a 9x9 pan and mix the ritz crackers and butter together and put it on top. You bake for 3-45 minutes at 350 and put over noodles or rice. Emma said she increases the spices. This is Mormon food. It's simple and fattening and not terribly innovative, but it's good. Also, I would maybe increase the chicken amount to sauce ratio. Here is where she got the original recipe: Million Dollar Chicken Casserole - Plain Chicken

Apple Pie, version 10

Image
First, I finally tracked down Grandma Goodsell's apple pie recipe, yay! This is not the one I used, but still. This was one of the better apple pies. I used 3 lbs. of Granny Smith apples (1 pie recipe), and I then put fresh lemon juice on them and the following: 1 t. cinnamon 1/4 t. c loves 1/4 t. nutmeg 1/4 t. salt 1/8 t. allspice Then, I combined the following in a pan: 6 T, butter 3 T. flour 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup white sugar 3 T. water I melted the butter, added the flour, then added the water and the sugar. You simmer this for 3-5 minutes. I dumped this on the apples., but it wasn't thick enough, so I added 2 T. of Ultra Gel as well.    I baked this at 425 for about 5 minutes, then put the temp down to 375-400 (I honestly can't remember which) for another 40 minutes. You do need tinfoil on the top after a while and tinfoil underneath towards the end. I used this recipe as a basis: The Best Classic Apple Pie - Mel's Kitchen Cafe Honestly, I think 1/2 cup sugar ...

Snowflake Bread

  I saw this on the Great British Baking Show and thought it would be great for Christmas morning. It's much easier than it looks, so don't let that intimidate you.This will be my new Christmas tradition because you can make it the night before (and bake the morning of), and you can't go wrong with cinnamon, sugar and butter. It gets an 8 and the recipe came from halfbakedharvcst.com. Also, I didn't add the butterscotch sauce because it's already plenty sweet.  DOUGH ▢  1   cup   warm whole milk ▢  1   packet   instant dry yeast This is 2 1/4 tsp ▢  1   tablespoon   honey ▢  2   eggs, beaten ▢  4   tablespoons   butter, melted ▢  3 1/2-4   cups   all-purpose flour ▢  1/2   teaspoon   kosher salt ▢  1   egg   beaten, for brushing before baking FILLING ▢  6   tablespoons   butter, very warm, but not melted ▢  3/4   cup   light brown sug...
