Coca Cola sauce for ribs or wings

From: yoyomax12 | Aug 9, 2010 | 5,790 views

A sauce that can be used to bake ribs or wings.

1 cup brown sugar
1 can cola
2-4 cloves of garlic minced (or as many as you want)
1/4 cup soya sauce (the original recipe called for 2 tbsp but I don't think this is enough,
vary to taste)
2-3 lbs. of ribs or wings.

In a large casserole combine the brown sugar, cola, onions, garlic and soya sauce.
Place wings or ribs in sauce mixture, bake at 350F for two hours (turning and basting
after 1 hour). To thicken sauce, remove meat and in a small bowl or glass, mix 2
heaping teaspoons of cornstarch and add enough water to get a runny paste. Bring
sauce to a boil over medium/high heat and gradually add cornstarch water mix stirring
constantly.
Bring to a boil and stir until thickened, return meat to pan to coat.

These are good, but I prefer this recipe:

The music is WAY too loud in this video, I was still learning about editing back then.

They are honey garlic ribs, but the sauce could be used for chicken as well.

Bacon Chicken Roll-Ups

Mix 8oz of cream cheese softened with 3-4 tbsp of your favourite fresh herbs (dried is
okay too)
Set aside.
Pound 4-6 boneless chicken breasts flat between sheets of plastic wrap until they are
about 1/4" thick. (this is easier than it sounds, trust me)
Spread cheese mixture on one side of chicken breast and roll it up (short side first).
Wrap pieces of chicken with two strips of bacon.

The original recipe says to slightly cook bacon until cooked not crisp and then wrap the
chicken with it, securing with toothpicks. The advantage to this is less bacon fat getting
on/in the chicken.

If you put the bacon on raw, it stays on very well and as it cooks it shrinks squeezing the
chicken roll and keeping it together. You can put the rolls under the broiler for a couple
of minutes to crisp up the bacon and brown it a bit. The bacon fat ends up in the bottom
of the pan and you can blot the chicken before serving it to get rid of most of it anyway.

Place the chicken rolls in a greased baking dish and bake uncovered at 350F for 35-45
minutes until the internal temp reaches 180F. (Safe chicken eatin' temperature)

Made-over Oven "Fried" Chicken
From: yoyomax12 | Jun 14, 2010 | 6,838 views


This is a very crispy coating that is delicious. The coating stays on the chicken as it
cooks. This is not a spicy dish.
The next time I make this I will use more hot sauce!

2 lb assorted chicken pieces, bone and skin on
(I used 2 breast halves, 2 thighs, 2 drumsticks)
1 cup buttermilk (substitute 1 cup milk mixed with 1 tbsp white vinegar)
1/4 cup Louisiana hot sauce
1/4 cup fresh chives finely chopped
1/2 cup corn flakes cereal, finely crushed
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp each of salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder
2 tbsp vegetable oil

Place Chicken in large glass bowl or large resealable plastic bag.
Add buttermilk, hot sauce and chives
Stir or shake to coat. Refrigerate for at least an hour or up to 12 hours.

Combine flour, corn flakes, salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder.
Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess liquid. Coat chicken in coating
mix.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken piece, skin side
DOWN and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden.
Transfer chicken to a greased baking pan skin side UP. Bake at 375 F until done
(internal temperature 180F)
Blot chicken on paper towel before serving.

Chicken Pot Pie

This is a recipe I have been making for many years to use up leftover cooked chicken.
The crust is dumpling-like and there is plenty of sauce in the bottom to dunk pieces in.

Music by: Jason Shaw http://www.youtube.com/user/audionautix

BASE:
Grease a casserole dish or baking dish (9"x13"). The shallower the dish the faster it will
cook, so the hour time is just a guideline. I have a fairly deep casserole dish so it takes
an hour to cook.
Spread 3-4 cups of cooked diced chicken in the bottom. Pour a can of condensed
chicken (undiluted) over top of chicken. Pour one can of chicken broth over top (don't stir
it up! It's better if you don't, not sure why, but I've learned this through trial and error).
Pour about 2 cups of mixed veggies over top. I use frozen veggies that I've thawed
under warm water first.

CRUST:
1 1/2 cups buttermilk (make your own buttermilk substitute with 1 1/2 cups of milk and 1
1/2 tbsp of vinegar mixed in)
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
4 tbsp butter
salt to taste (about 1/2 tsp)

Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Mix in butter until you get a coarse oatmeal like
texture.
Add buttermilk and stir until most of th lumps are gone. Pour mix over top of chicken
soup mix.

Bake at 350F for about an hour until crust is brown and cooked through (when you poke
a hole in the center there is no uncooked batter) (less info)

Beefy Taco Bake
From: yoyomax12 | Apr 28, 2010 | 4,114 views


Music by: Jason Shaw http://www.youtube.com/user/audionautix

1 lb Ground beef
1/2 c Chopped onion (use as much or as little as you like)
1 Taco seasoning mix (1 1/4
Oz)
1 can Tomato sauce (15 oz)
1 can Whole kernel corn, drained

2 c Cheddar cheese (shredded) (next time I will use Tex Mex cheese)
2 c "BISQUICK" Baking mix
1 c Milk
2 Eggs

PREPARATION
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook ground beef and onion until beef is brown; drain. Spoon
into ungreased 13x9x2" baking dish. Stir in taco seasoning mix (dry), tomato sauce and
corn. Sprinkle with cheese. Stir remaining ingredients until blended. Pour over beef
mixture. Bake 35 min or until light golden brown. Serve with sour cream, chopped
tomato and shredded lettuce if desired.

Next time I will cut down the crust ingredients by at least a third, I found the crust to be a
bit too thick.
This would be really good with some salsa used with the tomato sauce or INSTEAD of
the tomato sauce. You could also serve it with salsa instead of plain chopped tomato.

No still photo "money shots" in this one! My camera died :(
Not too sad though, that means I get to shop for a new one! :) (less info)

Back to Basics: Buttermilk Pancakes
From: CookingAndCrafting | Jun 25, 2011 | 2,410 views


Note: 7/4/11--I made this using buttermilk by making it with milk + lemon juice as I didn't
have any buttermilk and the results were not good. They weren't flufy, nor were they as
tasty. Use buttermilk.

I got this recipe from:
http://bakingbites.com/2011/05/buttermilk-pancakes-with-s...

Buttermilk Pancakes
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 cup buttermilk ( substitute=1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon white vinegar)
2 tbsp milk
1 large egg

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar.
In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk and egg until well combined, then
pour into the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. It is ok for the batter to be
slightly lumpy.
Heat a skillet or griddle over high heat until a drop of water placed on it skitters around
the surface. It's too hot if the water evaporates instantly on contact. Drop by large
spoonfuls (to make desired size) into the preheated pan and cook until golden on both
sides, turning once. Serve immediately.

Recipe can be doubled.

This was a VERY good recipe. It will replace the one that I had been using. Very fluffy,
delicious pancakes. Yummy nom nom.
