BAKED PARMESAN CHICKEN


If you are not in the mood for heavy meal this one dish meal will be a perfect.  Chicken with breadcrumbs coated and topped with  parmesan cheese....hem....it's tasty and yummy.


Baked Parmesan Chicken
Ingredients
4 boneless chicken breast halves
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup plain dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried leaf basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation:

Lightly grease a shallow baking dish. Heat oven to 375°.
Put chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap and pound lightly to thin and then flatten to an even thickness. Dip chicken pieces in melted butter; sprinkle both sides of chicken pieces with salt and pepper.

Combine remaining ingredients in food processor and pulse a few times, until Parmesan cheese is broken into smaller pieces but still has texture. Pour out onto a sheet of waxed paper or plate. Coat the chicken pieces with the bread crumb mixture and place in the prepared baking dish.

Bake the chicken for about 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through, turning once about halfway through cooking time. If chicken is pounded quite thin, check for doneness at about 20 minutes.

Resipi mudah jika dah jemu dengan nasi berlauk. Ayam disalut dengan serbuk roti kemudian diletakkan keju dan bakar, mudah dan sedap. Kalau suka boleh dibuatkan sedikit butter sauce atau pun black pepper sauce.

CANTONESE CLAY POT CHICKEN RICE



This is the kind of food that the children love so much...rice cooked in a clay pot together with soy sauce chicken. Well if you need to prepare this at home you need a minimum two burner and at least 4-5 clay pot..It's a bit tedious and that is the reason why we prefer to have this at the food court..anyway for the sake of of learning to make one and you have a small family then it is worth to make it at home...You can make variations to your clay pot chicken rice..by adding some "bok choy" or even sausage, as for this Cantonese Clay Pot Chicken..the recipe calls for sausage..but I omitted that. So here's the recipe I adapted from AFC - TV program...it's yummy!!!



Cantonese Claypot Chicken Rice

5 chicken wings
1 piece salted fish, about index finger length and preferably from ikan kurau
6-8 dried chinese mushrooms
2  cups of rice, Jasmine or any long-grain variety
2 cups of chicken stock (I made this ad hoc with 2 tbsp of shallot oil, 1 cube of Knorr Chicken Bouillon and 2 cups of mushroom soaking water)

Marinade

2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce 1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp pepper
3 cloves of garlic, minced
A small knob of ginger, sliced
A dash of sesame oil
1 heap tbsp cornstarch

Topping and Garnish
2 tbsp of dark soya
A stalk of spring onions, jullienned

Directions

Chop chicken wings along the joints into 3 pieces. Retain the drumlet and mid-wing section for marinating. The end tip can be set aside for soups.
Place drumlets and mid-wings into a mixing bowl and add all the ingredients under “marinade”. Give everything a good toss to ensure even coating and set aside for a couple of hours.Periodically give the chicken a quick stir.
Soak chinese mushrooms with water at room temperature. When the mushrooms have softened considerably, remove stalk and squeeze to remove as much soaking water as possible. Halve or quarter the mushrooms depending on size. Retain soaking water for “chicken stock”
Rinse salted fish to remove excess salt crystals on it. Dice into small pieces. Set aside
Rinse rice and set aside.

To prepare chicken stock, decant mushroom soaking water into a bowl. Add bouillon cube and sir to dissolve but don’t worry if it doesn’t completely. Add shallot oil. Stir and set aside.

Method
Add rice and chicken stock into claypot.
Turn on flame, bring mixture to a fast boil and lower flame to low, lid on and allow to simmer. Stir the mixture once in a while to make sure that the bouillon cube is well dissolved and incorporated.
When the rice is about half-cooked (appro. 5-7 min later), quickly but carefully lay the chicken pieces and ginger slices from the marinade over the rice, followed by salted fish, mushrooms and chinese sausages (optional)
Turn to the lowest flame possible and allow it to continue to simmer. By now, the smoky flavours would start to become apparent.
When the steaming through the vent on the lid has somewhat subsided. Remove lid and drizzle in half of the chicken wing marinade over the top. Cover with lid again rapidly. It would begin to produce more steam from the marinade.
When the steaming has once again subsided, turn off flame. Remove lid and check that the chicken pieces have just cooked through. If not, simply cover and let the claypot sit for another 5-7 min allowing the residual heat to cook everything through.
Just before serving, garnish with spring onions and a generous drizzling of dark soya sauce and give everything  a good toss.


Sajian ini memang menjadi kegemaran anak-anakkan...seperti makan nasi dengan ayam masak kicap cuma cara masaknya sahaja berlainan iaitu menggunakan periuk tanah. Saya beli dua biji periuk tanah ini cuma  teringin nak mencuba...memang rasanya kalau anak ramai tak berbaloi dibuatnya sebab kerjanya remeh dan memerlukan banyak periuk tanah dan dapur..tetapi kerana hendak mencuba saya buat juga..pakat kongsi makan. Tetapi kalau keluarga kecil rasanya berbaloilah buatnya tidak meletihkan. Menyediakan bahan adalah mudah tetapi memasaknya agak rumit sedikitlah...ialah kita kena mengadap nasi sehingga kering..pendek kata dalau hendak membuatnya..kerja lain kena letak sebelah..tak boleh nak disambil-sambil.Apa pun saya suka letakkan cendawan dan ikan kurau masin..hem memang montop....

SAIKAP 3 RASA / 3 TASTE SEABASS



One of the great Chinese and Thai restaurant dishes is a whole fish crispy-fried and then served with sweet-and-sour sauce. It is a dramatic presentation and the combination of sweet-sour-hot-savory can't be beat. I developed this easy-to-make home recipe and it is as good as any restaurant version. I get the sweet and sour taste from the pineapple..it's marvellous..and for you who love something hot then add some bird's eyes chili..it creat wonders. This dish is best serve as main dish with rice and other dishes.



Musim-musim begini anak-anak selalu suka lauk yang panas-panas dan segera....punya..so saya buat ini ikan 3 rasa yang cukup popular dimana-mana restuarant Cina atau Thai. Ikan Siakap sekarang ni murah dan saya memang suka ikan siakap sebab isinya yang lembut. Untuk menambahkan keenakan pada rasa masam dan manisnya saya masukkan nenas cincang...memang sedap. Menu ini sesuailah dijadikan menu utama makan bersama nasi.
