Well;
I have a "small" problem............ (texas girl ?? Vera?? Sass ?? Anybody ?? - remarks ??)

No; I'm talking about the breasts (jeez.... THAT'S asking for it as well!)

the CHICKEN breasts I bought for my cordon bleu rip-off..........one is a lot smaller than it appeared behind the shrink-wrap...........so it didn't"Stuff"well..........................
But I got 'em built !

I'll let 'em rest for an hour or so, then into the oven.........Got some corn relish, fresh asparagus, maybe a cheddar-Mashed tater will work too

You have to pound those breasts my friend! and not in a king kong sorta way, either... They look fantastic, Lucky...I'm concerned they might shrink a bit when you cook them, forcing your beautiful stuffing all over the place.

When you want to stuff.... Pound whatever you have to a uniform thickness. It also gives you more surface to work with. Then, dredge the meat in seasoned flour. Place your stuffing to within 1/2 inch of the edges and roll. Use toothpicks if you have to; just remember to take them out later. Then, flour the roll again. Next, dip it into beaten eggs. Then, either four again (seasoned flour) or use bread crumbs (seasoned, as well), depending on your recipe. Freeze them for about an hour. Cook them in a sautee pan with oil on all sides just to colour them. Don't worry about cooking them through. Finish them in a 350 oven about 40 minutes.
It's lots of work, but you'll barely loose any stuffing this way.

Or...just do it your way, and have lots of rice or pasta around to mm mm mm with your stuffing.

I believe I'm making a couple pizzas tonight. Depending on how the dough comes out it just may be tomorrow tonight. lol We shall see. I've made bread but never pizza dough although it's basically the same. wish me luck!

It's hard to fly by the horizon on a hazy day....
Just thought I'd mention that (lol)

Vera, that little recipe method you just gave is getting printed.
I feel like I could come right out and make some good stuffed checken breasts after reading that.

Jeff..... have you gone all artistic on us? That is one beautiful picture. Seriously.

Barb, what recipe are you using?
I'm going to attempt pizza dough one of these days and printed out that recipe from the one JoeV posted. The one you need to let sit a day.

Let me know how you do.

Well;
The result was not too shabby.................

the Warden's opened right up, as I knew it would..............

Mine held, but I got cold feet at the last, and whipped up a wine sauce to complliment (Warden doesn't like my wine sauce) and it stayed thick enough to go on the mashed taters, as well.............Steamed Asparagus was just done!

It’s really a marvelous pic. I love that you used the squash shells for the serving bowl! Magnificent. Nothing wrong with your other pics, but this is definitely one of your finer shots. Loving it!

And that big mushroom up front in the shot is incredible! Guy would call it “money”, but he gets on my verves with that, so I’ll just say, Dayyuuummm!


*gonna have to start paying Sass royalties for that, I’m sure*

all this food looks fantastic!!

i had crap for dinner!!

i got veto'd again!! we wound up at red robin grease haven!!

i rang out 2 fried zucchini and 2 onion rings off others plates (the wings looked nasty so i passed on them) and thats all i had besides a
watermellon razz and a glass of water!! the burgers don't appeal to me and the soup is like mud. so i think i will make some pastina and eggs (pastina with eggs, butter, grated R&P cheese and parsley yummy) later.

LOL a lot of people like that food! i must say they do make an awsome banana malted. i just didn't fell like having one for dinner tonight. this is the second time i have been forced to eat there in 2 years. i like fried foods but my fried food is never that greasy, to much grease kills my stomach. pastina and eggs are great, an italian thing mom usually made for breakfast.

i could have rung out enough grease from the zucchini and onion rings to fry another batch up!! they tasted good but all that grease. the dips are good but they gotta do something about the plate of grease they serve with.
