This should be served at room temperature since cold cream cheese is very hard.

8 oz softened cream cheese

1/2 cup dried parsley

1/2 chopped scallions, mostly the green

1 teaspoon salt

With a mixer, blend all the ingredients together well.  Allow to chill in the fridge over night to blend the flavors.

serve room temp with assorted veggies like celery and carrots.

Chicken Parm

Posted by totallychef on February 28, 2016
Posted in: contains gluten, Dinner, Recipe. Leave a comment

2 skinless boneless breasts

1egg plus 3 tablespoons water

1 1/2 cups bread crumbs

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon dried sage

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, ground

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup all purpose flour

Oil for pan frying

1 cup tomato sauce

1 cup grated parm cheese

slice breasts into 1 inch thick medallions.  place each between parchment paper and pound with a mallet until about 1/4 in thin making sure they are evenly pounded.

mix the bread crumbs, salt, sage, and both peppers.  You can alter the seasonings for your own individual taste.

Set up your breading station.  Flour, egg wash, bread crumbs.

Dredge the chicken in the flour.  Then coat with egg and then coat with the bread crumbs.

Heat oil in a shallow omelet type pan.  Cook on both sides until tanned and crispy.  These cook really fast since they are pounded thin.  Drain on paper towels.

To serve, top with heated sauce and a sparinkling of  cheese.  Serve while still hot.

You can also use this technique for pork.  Change your seasoning a bit.  I use 1 teaspoon cumin and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.

zest of 1 lemon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy.  Add one egg at a time, mixing well then add lemon zest.  Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder and mix into butter/egg mixture.  Do not over mix, only mix until most of the dry ingredients are moist.  Add berries and mix a couple of strokes more.  Fill greased muffing tins 2/3 full and bake at 375 about 20 minutes or until done.

 

You can also make this into a loaf.  You will need to increase the baking time to 55-65 minutes
