VisionQuest 1171 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Politically Incorrect Guest" 09-30-12, 08:00 PM (EST) "OTCC - Chicken with grapes, asparagus, and acini de pepe" This is a pretty easy recipe that goes over well in our house. It is not at all healthy. Chicken w/grapes in cream sauce. 1 pound chicken breast cutlets (I usually just buy breasts, cut them into manageable pieces and pound them a bit if they are thick) Red Seedless Grapes (about 1 - 1.5 cups cut in half) 1/2 cup white wine (more if you want to imbibe whilst cooking) 1/2 cup chicken stock 1 cup heavy cream 1/4 cup dijon or stone ground mustard (either works, I have used both, I had dijon on hand so I used that) salt pepper flour olive oil butter Salt and pepper the chicken Dredge in flour Heat 2T butter and 2T olive oil in pan, get it hot Cook chicken in butter and olive oil, about 4 mins a side. (about med high heat) Remove chicken from pan Add white wine to pan, keep all the good brown stuff left from the chicken, stir up all the good brown stuff with the wine. Cook on high heat for about 30 seconds to a minute. Reduce heat to medium and add chicken stock, cream, and mustard. Stir together well. Cook about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low, put chicken back in the creamy goodness mixture and add the grapes. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Put chicken on plates, smother with creamy goodness and grapes. Asparagus 1 pound asparagus 2 T olive oil Salt and Pepper (I use a fennel pollen kosher salt, but anything will do) Mix olive oil and asparagus in bowl, add salt and pepper Bake asparagus on cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven for about 12 minutes (the asparagus stays nice an crispy and the tips get almost burnt - good flavor) Acini de pepe 2 cups chicken stock as much acini de pepe as you want Cook acini de pepe for about 10 - 12 mins in chicken stock Drain, place in bowl and add some parmesan reggiano cheese and pepper (I stole this from some other OTCC recipe that I believed used orzo, I had no orzo, so I used the pepe, I stole the recipe because it was good the first time around.) I plan on posting pics tomorrow.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"Pictures" Ingredients - I forgot to show the acini de pepe box and the parm cheese that I used in it. The asparagus ready to cook Cooking the chicken After removing the chicken, adding the wine, chicken stock, mustard, and cream. Adding the grapes and the chicken back in to the sauce. Finished product Super easy to make. Probably 15 minutes prep time and 15 minutes cook time. Nice Sunday meal. Hope you enjoy!   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: OTCC - Chicken with grapes, asparagus, and acini de pepe" Gotta love a chicken breast recipe! I have to admit, I'm skeptical about the hot grapes. I'm thinking I might sub cherry tomatoes if I can't bring myself to make hot grapes. Cake Haiku.

"RE: OTCC - Chicken with grapes, asparagus, and acini de pepe" LAST EDITED ON 10-03-12 AT 00:32 AM (EST) Excellent! I was trying to figure out how to de-fruitify this dish and couldn't think of a thing. I have bushels of ripe cherry tomatoes still coming from the garden, and Greek olives would be great as well, perhaps together. And how about some marinated artichoke hearts, too? Sorry Tummy, I'm totally with Fro, dog grape it.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"!Another use for acini de pepe" The only use I've ever known for Acini de Pepe is for Frog Eye Fruit Salad!! My own family doesn't care for it much, but it's something my Mom used to make for family get-togethers! Frog Eye Salad.. (not my mom's recipe, but very similar!) 1 cup white sugar 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 3/4 cups unsweetened pineapple juice 2 eggs, beaten 1 tablespoon lemon juice 3 quarts water 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 (16 ounce) package acini di pepe pasta 3 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges, drained 2 (20 ounce) cans pineapple tidbits, drained 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed 1 cup miniature marshmallows 1 cup shredded coconut In a sauce pan, combine sugar, flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pineapple juice and eggs. Stir and cook over medium heat until thickened. Remove from heat; add lemon juice and cool to room temperature. Bring water to a boil, add oil, remaining salt and cook pasta until al dente. Rinse under cold water and drain. In a large bowl, combine the pasta, egg mixture, mandarin oranges, pineapple and whipped topping. Mix well and refrigerate overnight or until chilled. Before serving add marshmallows and coconut. Toss and serve. No tricks from Moonbaby, just treats!!

samboohoo 17069 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 10-04-12, 08:56 AM (EST) 18. "RE: !Another use for acini de pepe" Once I saw the box, I was thinking the exact same thing about the frog eye salad. There is a little deli place in our office complex that serves it. It's the first time I'd ever heard of it. I tried it once and liked it, although I was a slight bit weirded out by it.
