I LOVE chicken strips. The  crispy  outside with the tender and juicy inside - just makes my mouth water thinking about it. The other night I was craving chicken but I didn't want to leave the house. I also didn't want to fry anything in a bunch of oil because I didn't want to deal with the mess and of course it's not healthy. I like to put Frank's red hot on top of these for a little extra spice. Or you can serve with Ketchup. or both! :)  Ingredients: 2-4 Chicken breasts (cut in half lengthwise) 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs 1/2 cup Milk 4 TBS Butter Directions: 1.  Heat butter over medium / med-high heat 2. Add the Italian bread crumbs and milk into  separate  bowls. 3. Season the chicken with salt and pepper  4. Dip into  milk , then dip into the breadcrumbs, and then add to med-hot pan. 5. Once hot, add the chicken and fry on each side for 4-5 minutes depending on size. I served these with m...

I love Indian food. I have tried numerous recipes at home trying to replicate the wonderful flavors that come from the authentic restaurants - no such luck. This recipe comes pretty darn close though. I think the simmering in the crock pot helps bring the spices out and hide the tomato taste. I like it spicy so I added cayenne and red pepper flakes - you can always omit these or lower these if you don't want the spice. Ingredients: 1.5 lb chicken, diced 1 can (28 oz) diced tomatoes 1 large onion, diced (or 2 small) 3 garlic cloves 3 TBS butter 2 TBS ginger 1 cup chicken broth 1/4 cup peanut butter (or almond butter) 1/4 cup diced cilantro 1 cup sour cream Spice mix: 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 2 TBS brown sugar 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp turmeric 3/4 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp ground cumin 1/2 tsp garam marsala 2 tsp chili powder Directions: 1. In slow cooker, combine tomatoes, onions, garlic, butter, ginger, and ...
