Leftover chicken on top of the refrigerator?

More and more of us are with chickens, means the need for advanced large chicken recipes. Without these recipes we could find ourselves wasting huge amounts of money every month to throw away food. Or there could be endless complaints of our children to eat the same things last night. Well, fear not, I will help you eliminate these problems and save money with the introduction of some fantastic recipes for chicken advanced.

The first recipe I would likeShare is a simple and quick recipe for Chicken Pot Pie.

C. 1-2 Leftover chicken diced or shredded
C. 1-2 Vegetables (you can use cans, scrap, or my favorite, frozen)
1 can cream of chicken soup
Sauce 1 package (do not worry if it is not very thick, it becomes thicker in the oven)
6-8 cooked biscuits (if I have little time I used the packaged cookies)

Mix first 4 ingredients. Then cut the biscuits in half and layera 9x9 pan with half the cookies. Pour the mixture over the chicken and biscuits with the top half. Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown.

Another thing really big and tasty to do with leftover chicken is a dish of chicken teriyaki and I have a very simple recipe for doing so.

½ c. + Leftover chicken, diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 bag of frozen mix of grilled vegetables
¼ c. Teriyaki Sauce
C. 1-2 cooked rice

In a medium frying panHeat the oil, then add the chicken and vegetables, when oil was only up to add teriyaki sauce, then the wet. Continue to stir until everything is well heated. Serve on cooked rice before. This should serve 4-5 people, but can be easily expanded by adding more chicken, vegetables, rice and cooking more. If you do not like the rice a bit much to prove 'teriyaki sauce while cooking the rice.

Cooking With Tajine

Tajine is a cooking implement. It is the Moroccan traditional slow cooker. Made of clay, tajine comes in to two parts, a base section where food is layered and piled and then covered with a cavernous cone shaped top section, and slowly cooked to tender perfection. The round shallow base has a flat-bottom with a lip where the cavernous cone shaped top section sits. It is designed to capture and retain condensation and to avoid dryness during the cooking process.

Traditionally, a tajine dish contains meat, either lamb of beef in addition to pulses or lentils and vegetables. For vegetarians cooking in a tajine cannot be any simpler. You can substitute the meat with either tempeh or hard tofu, or even the extra soft round tofu.

Cooking with a tajine is really easy and not dissimilar to an electric slow cooker. All the ingredients are layered in the base section, starting with root vegetables like slice potatoes and cubed carrots followed by chunky meat. Concentrated stock or chopped tomatoes well seasoned with condiments, spices (like ras-el-hanout, stock cube, etc.) and fresh herbs like parsley or coriander can be added to the tajine.

Cover the tajine, place over a low heat source and allow to simmer very slowly for at least 90 minutes to 120 minutes, depending on the volume of food to be cooked. As a result dishes cooked in a tajine is thoroughly moist with a soft melt-in-your-mouth texture.

If using a clay tajine, a heat diffuser, also know as a simmering mat is crucial. It helps to distribute the heat evenly over the flat surface of the tajine and also protects the tajine from over heating. Repeated direct contact with flame can cause clay tajine to crack over a period of time.

In Morocco tajine is served as a centrepiece where it is customary to share a meal. It is often serve with bread, rice or couscous.
