1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh coriander
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint leaves
a pinch of sugar
2 poached whole skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 pounds), minces (about 3 cups)

Categories     Bread     Egg     Mustard     Bake     Quick & Easy     Spice     Gourmet

Yield Makes 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons double-acting baking powder
4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon cuminseed, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons salt
3 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl stir together the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, the ground cumin, the cuminseed, the mustard, and the salt. In a bowl whisk together the eggs, the milk, and the oil and stir the mixture into the flour mixture, stirring the batter until it is just moistened. Pour the batter into a well-buttered loaf pan, 11 by 4 1/2 by 2 3/4 inches, or 9 by 5 by 3 inches, and b it in the middle of a preheated 350°F oven for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan on a rack for 15 minutes, turn it out onto the rack, and let cool completely.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • To add a nutty flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
  • For a citrusy flavor, add 1/2 cup of dried cranberries or raisins and 1/4 teaspoon of grated orange zest to the batter.
  • To make a streusel topping, combine 1/2 cup of flour, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and 1/4 cup of butter in a small bowl until crumbly. Sprinkle over the batter before baking.
  • For a glaze, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar and 1/4 cup of milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread.
