Need
Diced chicken or chicken breasts which you cut up whichever
dried origano, or if you preffer thyme
stock cube
olive oil (or normal oil but olive s better)
Tomoto puree
Water
And onion (I always forget the onion!)
salt pepper

heat oil in pan then seal chicken (stir it around till its white on the outside instead of pink and bloody) and onions and origano (until al the chicken have atleast some origano on it but stir to cover) and salt stir around some more when you lik the look of the onions add a couple of tablespoons of tomato paste (puree) and water so its a sauce add more origano bring to boil then cover lower heat and simmer for about 20 minutes or however long t is your supposed to cook chicken for I ususally give it 20 minutes.

When I make it for 6 people I use about 4 tablespoons of origano somtimes more. When you add water just add as to how runny or thick you like your sauce.

We eat it with rice but I suppose really you could intheory eat it with pasta or potatoes too.

Ok, I am getting fed up coming back of a night from work and nuking something in the microwave. However, my cooking skills leave much to be desired. Does anyone have any quick/simple recipes that I would be capable of making?

I am sure you can put something into an oven bag? Put chicken breasts, a few baby potatoes, mushrooms (if you like them), cherry tomatoes, peppers (any other vegetable you like), all washed and raw into an oven bag. Add some Cajun or BBQ spice mixes (generously), which you can find in any supermarket easily.

Puncture the bag (generously as well) and in 50 mins you have a healthy and delicious roast meal!

PS: I usually prepare everything the night before and leave it in the fridge till the cooking time so they sort of marinade and taste even better.

i just bought my hubby a book called "Will Cook for Sex" by Rocky Fino and it includes some really easy recipes that takes a relatively low amount of time. Also I would look at www.kraftfoods.com i found lots of quick recipes there. in my cookbook that i included there is a recipe for red beans and rice that is delicious its under velveeta red beans and rice i just leave out the velveeta.

Night, do you have an idea of what kind of herbs she used?

[Nightshade]

You get a packet of stuff called mixed herbs.
We dont have a packet at the moment. I think You can but whatever you like though .


she was very fopnd of basil I remeber.

[emily655321]

Thanks, Night. I like basil, too. Perhaps I'll buy some dried basil and rosemary. I love rosemary chicken.

Oh, I know a family recipe I have! It's my grandmother's. Sorry, I'll have to sort of invent amounts, but it's easy to adjust, and it's good for leftovers, so don't worry about making too much.

4 yellow-skinned potatoes
2 yellow apples
1 onion
1 cut of pork tenderloin
butter
fresh/dried rosemary
salt and pepper

Cut up the potatoes, apples, and onion. Slice the pork into 3/4 inch slices. Put the potatoes on to boil. While they're boiling, brown the pork in a large frying pan with the butter. When the potatoes are cooked, drain them and add them to the pan. Add the apples and onions and rosemary (you can add the onions a few minutes before the potatoes, if you like. Depends how brown you like your onions), and cook until the apples are soft and the potatoes are brown and mealy (about 5-10 minutes). I don't know how much rosemary exactly. Sprinkle it over the entire business until it looks right to you. I guess I mean to say, "rosemary to taste." Add salt and pepper to taste.

[Nightshade]

Humm..... Do you think it would work if I substituted the pork with somthing else?
It sounds de..(YUM)

[emily655321]

Yes, I'll bet it would be very good with lamb. And I'm sure chicken would work well, too (chicken works with everything!).
