FUNKY CHICKEN

I just threw this together right now--yes, right now. I have next-to-nothing right now, so I just made it up and was actually surprised by the result. I just heated up some frozen veggies, and made some plain white fluffy rice to eat with this. Voila! Dinner is ready! I am listing what I used, but if you prefer other cuts of chicken or want to adjust the seasonings to your taste, please feel free to do so.

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 chicken thighs
2 chicken drumsticks
1/4 cup honey
6 ounces pineapple juice
5 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon dried rosemary leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a baking dish, place all the ingredients together (place the chicken in the dish first.I truly believe doing this and adding everything right on top of it is what gave me such a nice crispy exterior).
  • This is the fun part, where you really get your hands dirty. Mix everything together, making sure the honey is well dissolved.
  • Place in the oven for 30-40 minutes, brushing the chicken with the honey mixture about every 10 minutes.
  • Cook until done and enjoy!

FUNKY ENCHILADA CASSEROLE



Funky Enchilada Casserole image

My good friend brought this to me in the hospital after I had just had a baby. My husband promptly took it home and ate the entire thing without sharing. I had to remake it myself to find out what he'd been raving about. I've made a few adjustments and so can you according to your tastes! This is a great casserole to make because some of the canned ingredients you may already have. Serve with sour cream, hot sauce, and cold diced tomatoes or salsa if you like. Maybe even serve some chips and guacamole to round it out.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your casserole.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breast is very lean and can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it's cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Use a creamy soup base. This will help to make the casserole moist and flavorful. You can use cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, or cream of celery soup.
  • Add vegetables to your casserole. This will help to add flavor and nutrition. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
  • Season your casserole well. Salt and pepper are a good start, but you can also add other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Top your casserole with a crispy topping. This will help to add texture and flavor. Some good options include crushed crackers, grated Parmesan cheese, or French fried onions.
  • Let your casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to serve.

Conclusion:

Funky Chicken Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. With its creamy sauce, tender chicken, and crispy topping, it's sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give Funky Chicken Casserole a try.
