I'm making Rachel Ray's Sauteed Sweet Chicken Breasts w/ a Spicy Fresh Tomato Chutney and White Rice....WHEW that's a long one!!
I'm making a couple changes like I did last time I made this:
*Adding diced mango...sounds weird but my God it is SOOOOO good and goes with the spiciness of the jalapenos.
*Also adding fire roasted diced green chilies (this recipe has a very Latin American influence to it if you haven't noticed yet ;-))
*Using JASMINE rice instead of white rice...it's a Thai-style rice but so yummy and fragrant I just have to try it with this chicken!!!
Oh P.S. this recipe comes from her 365: No repeats cookbook (Yum-O! lol) I think it's also on foodnetwork.com too!

Ok lunch today, took 31 minutes, from preparation of ingredients, cooking time, to plate
Secret Ingredients:
chicken cutlets
chicken thighs, deboned & skin removed
Panko Japanese breadcrumbs (the one that's used for Tonkatsu)
2 eggs
Salad
kirbies & tomatoes (just picked up from farmer's market real cheap)
Kasha (buckwheat)
1 cup of buckwheat kernels (also called kasha)
1 small onion
2 mushrooms
1 carrot
some parsley chopped fine
ok let's get down to serious biz here
for the kasha Italian style, I chopped the onion, parsley, carrot, mushrooms
then I sauted the whole thing in olive oil
then I used a cup of buckwheat (1 part buckwheat & 2 parts water)
add salt to taste, or you can add a vegetable or chicken bouillon (which is tastier, but i was out of them)
when the water start to boil, lower heat to low (simmer), cover and cook for 20 minutes (just like rice)
for the chicken cutlets, i beat 2 eggs
got the Panko breadcrumbs ready in a plate
breaded them
and into the pan
turnning over a few times, cooking initially on high heat, than lowering it a bit, so it doesn't burn and cooks thru
Kasha is looking good
cut up tomatoes & kirbies, seasoned with olive oil & balsamic vinegar and a bit of salt
remove chicken and drain on paper towels
Kasha is done!
voila, lunch is served my friends

really easy my friend.
sauted in olive oil a small onion chopped fine, a garlic clove that i smashed with the back of the knife, and some basil. I then add the ground beef and i cook that thru, then I add the crushed tomatoes (i mostly use Redpack crushed tomatoes), add a bit of salt, little pepper ... and the secret ingredient, a pinch of sugar
cook that on a low flame for about 30 minutes.
now .. if you want to get fancy, and improve the taste, once you brown the meat, you add a little bit of white wine, and let that evaporate, than in addition to the crushed tomatoes, I add about a tablespoon of tomato paste. This makes for a heartier meat sauce.

I've done the reduce thing and used it on icecream, I used one that I bought at Di Paolo's in NYC but I've never tried it since
Di Paolo's is one of my fav places in NY
the cheese, olive oils it's heaven
Today dh ended up asking for shrimp instead of steak, so I did coconut shrimp with pina colada dip and cheddar biscuits, topped it off with blue Hawians

Yum your chicken looks so good.
I used panko breadcrumbs to make a breading for the chicken I made tonight and I used some greek seasoning and paprika and pepper but I baked mine. Also had pasta with cheese sauce and broccoli.
