Who's Chicken?

Here are three chicken recipes that I've totally stolen from cookbooks. But they're so good I had to share!

Flamin' Poultry (serves 2)
Ingredients:
- 2 teastpoons butter
- 1/4 cup hot sauce
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast, halves, cut into bite size pieces

1) Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the hot sauce and mix.
2) Add chicken, stir to coat, and cover. Cook for about 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

Crispy Cracker Chicken (serves 2)
Ingredients
- 1 egg white
-1/2 cup crushed crackers or chips (Wheat Thins, Triscuts, Tortilla chips, etc)
-1/2 grated Parmesan cheese
-2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- I like to add chilli powder, dried basil, or whatever

1) Preheat the oven to 350 degress F
2) Beat the egg white well. In a separate dish, mix the crushed crackers and Parmesan.
3) Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Coat first with the egg white, then the cracker mixture
4) Plce the chicken in a pan and bake for about 35 min., until the chicken is cooked through and the cracker coating is crispy.

Finally, Chicken Delight (serves 2)
Ingredients
- 2 Chicken breasts (or turkey)
- Handful of basil leaves
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 cup of miso or bouillon

1) Lay a sheet of foil on a baking tray and place the chicken breasts on the foil.
2) Tear the basil leaves, halve the tomatoes, and toss over the chicken
3) Using a teaspoon of bouillon or miso, mix a half cup of boiling water to make a stock and then pour over the chicken.
4) Fold over the foil to make a parcel and bake in the oven on 400 degrees F for 20 mins.

I love all these. They're hella simple and make great leftovers.
