Round 2 Recipe Italian Fried Chicken

Steps:

• In a large bowl or resealable plasic bag, add the flour, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning and salt and pepper, to taste. Combine well, then add the chicken and toss to coat.
• In a large high-sided skillet with a lid, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat. Shake off excess flour from the chicken and fry in the oil until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and reserve.
• To the pan, add the mushrooms and bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, the tomato soup, and the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and add the reserved chicken. Cover with a lid and cook until the chicken is completely cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the lid 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time, to reduce the sauce slightly. Transfer the cacciatore to a serving platter, sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with pepper. Combine rosemary, oregano and basil; sprinkle half the herb mixture over chicken. In a large skillet over medium heat add chicken, skin side down. Brown chicken on both sides. Add 8 garlic cloves; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in vinegars and chicken base. Cook, covered, on low heat until a thermometer reads 170°-175°, 15-20 minutes., Remove chicken to a serving platter; keep warm. Add chardonnay to pan; increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil; cook, uncovered, until liquid is reduced by half, 8-10 minutes, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Strain sauce. Return to pan and add remaining garlic clove and herb mixture; heat through. Stir in cream; remove from heat. Whisk in butter until creamy. If needed, return pan briefly to very low heat to soften the butter. (Do not allow butter to melt completely or sauce may separate.) Serve with chicken. If desired, garnish with additional basil and rosemary.

Steps:

• In a high-sided skillet over medium heat, add the oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Cut each tortilla into 8 triangles. Fry the triangles in batches until they are golden brown and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on brown paper and season with salt.
• Cut the kernels off the corn and add them to a bowl. Add the cilantro, tomatoes, half the onion (reserve the other 1/2 for Online Round 2 Recipe Cheesy Hot Dog Scramble), hot sauce, lime juice, salt and pepper, to taste, and stir to combine.
• Serve the corn salsa with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together the buttermilk with the hot sauce. Add chicken pieces and turn to completely coat. Let sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large zip top bag combine the breadcrumbs, poultry seasoning, and salt and pepper, to taste. Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk and drain excess liquid. Place the chicken in breadcrumb mixture a few pieces at a time and shake to coat completely. Remove chicken from bag and place on a nonstick baking sheet and bake for 30 to 40 minutes until breadcrumbs are golden brown and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees F.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and leftover grilled vegetables. Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until heated through.
• Drain the pasta, add to the skillet and toss to coat. Serve topped with chopped basil.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Brush the sliced vegetables with 1/4 cup canola oil. Season with salt and pepper and place on the grill. Cook until they have slightly charred and softened slightly, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a baking sheet.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic, Italian seasoning, vinegar, remaining 1/4 cup canola oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle half of the dressing over the grilled vegetables. Stir the chopped olives into the remaining dressing.
• Cut the bread into 4 equal pieces and slice open. Spread the olive dressing evenly on 4 bottom pieces of the bread. Top with a single layer of each of the vegetables, reserving the remaining vegetables for Round 2 Recipe Ratatouille Pasta. Sprinkle the cheese over each and place the remaining 4 bread pieces on top. Place in a panini press and cook until well toasted, about 5 minutes. (Or place on a well-oiled grill pan and place a heavy hot cast-iron skillet or griddle on top of the sandwiches, and grill until the bread is well toasted, about 5 minutes per side.)

Steps:

• Chop the chicken into small pieces. Slice the 2 grilled scallions and combine them with the chopped chicken. Slice the uncooked scallion and set aside for garnish.
• Put the wrappers onto a clean work surface and put 1 teaspoon of the chicken into the center. Dip a finger into some water and moisten the edges of the wonton. Fold the wrapper over and pinch the edges together, making 3 or 4 pleats. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet with canola oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the wontons in 1 layer. Let cook until the bottoms are browned, about 2 to 3 minutes, then add 2 tablespoons water. Quickly cover and cook until the wrappers are tender, about 3 minutes.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and set aside.
• Arrange the pot stickers on a serving platter, garnish with the reserved sliced scallions and serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Toss together chicken pieces, black pepper, salt, paprika, rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage, white pepper, and cayenne in a large bowl to coat.
• Stir in buttermilk until chicken is coated. Refrigerate for 6 hours.
• Combine flour, salt, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, white pepper, and onion powder in a large shallow dish.
• Remove chicken from the buttermilk and dredge each piece in the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess and transfer to a plate.
• Heat peanut oil in a large Dutch oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Add all the chicken to the pan and cook for 10 minutes.
• Turn chicken pieces and cook for another 10-15 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the oil and transfer to a cooling rack set over a paper towel lined baking sheet. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place flour in a shallow plate or bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Put the bread crumbs in another shallow plate or bowl and beat the eggs in another bowl.
• Dredge the chicken piece by piece in the flour, then the egg, then the bread crumbs, until all pieces are coated. Pour the oil into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Add the chicken to the dish and sprinkle with paprika to taste. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then turn pieces over and bake for another 30 minutes. Remove from oven and drain on paper towels. Enjoy!

Steps:

• To Marinate: Pour salad dressing into a large, resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, seal bag and shake to coat. Place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight (the longer you marinate, the more taste the chicken will absorb).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Remove chicken from bag, discarding remaining marinade. Place chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Note: Turn chicken occasionally while baking.
