Spinach Artichoke Chicken




Ingredients
  • 2 large chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Flour for dredging
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 8.8 ounces cream cheese (one block Philly) softened
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 (14 fluid ounce) can artichoke hearts drained & chopped
  • 2 cups (packed) fresh baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
  1. Cut the chicken in half lengthwise so you have 4 thinner cutlets. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt & pepper, then coat them in flour.
  2. Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan's hot, add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes/side or until golden. Take the chicken out of the pan and set it aside.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chicken broth, cream cheese, and garlic to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until the cheese has melted into a smooth sauce.
  4. Add the chopped artichokes and spinach to the pan. Let the spinach wilt. If you're noticing that the sauce is thickening up too much (it's personal preference how thick you want it), add a splash more chicken broth.
  5. Stir in the parmesan cheese and add the chicken back into the pan. Cook for another few minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Season with salt & pepper as needed. Serve immediately with the sauce spooned over the chicken.

Recipe Notes
  • This recipe goes much smoother if you take the cream cheese out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter to warm up for at least 30 minutes prior to starting cooking.
  • You can use frozen spinach in this recipe. Just be sure to thaw it and squeeze out the water first. 
  • If using smaller chicken breasts, you can leave them intact, but keep in mind they'll need to cook longer.

Peanut Butter Stuffed Dates with Chocolate

Gambar
Ingredients 10 Medjool dates 2-3 tablespoons peanut butter 1/4 cup peanuts 1/2 cup (about 4 oz) vegan dark chocolate Instructions Cut the dates open to remove the pit. It's best to cut down lengthwise into the dates. Then fill them with some peanut butter, add two or three peanut halves and put them back together. Next, melt the dark chocolate. You can either do this in a microwave or in a small sauce pot on the stove. Then dip the dates in the chocolate. Allow the chocolate to harden (this will take about 5 minutes) and you got healthy vegan snickers with just four ingredients! This Recipe adapted from >>>> Click Here

The Best Oven-Fried Chicken

Ingredients 3-4 chicken breasts about 1lb, cut in strips (I get about 3 out of one breast) 4-5 tbsp melted butter 3/4 cup flour 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs 1/2 tsp salt 1 tbsp seasoning salt I use Lawry's 1/2 tsp pepper 2 tsp paprika Instructions Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place a large piece of parchment paper on the rimmed baking sheet (10x15x1") and brush butter over top (there will be a little extra butter, but you need it to crisp up the coating!) *NOTE: If you're working with fresh chicken breasts, you will want to soak them for 15-30 minutes in milk or buttermilk before coating. This will help the coating to stick. I use frozen, thawed chicken breasts so they are already very moist on the outside. Combine all ingredients besides chicken and butter in a large paper or ziploc bag. Add the chicken and shake to coat. OPTIONAL: For extra crispiness, do a double coat -- simply dunk coated chicken in a little bit of buttermilk, a
