Re: Old Fashioned Grub....

Hi Oscar

I love the concoction that I made up called "Chicken Comfort."

I cook up chicken breasts in a slow cooker, or bake chicken cutlets with homemade bread crumbs and cut up apples and bananas to bake on top.
Bake 350 degrees for 50 minutes.

Both would have lots of fresh, tasty spices: rosemary, oregano, basil, ginger, tarragon, sage and thyme.

Cut cutlets into cubes and place in a big bowl, and then add fresh corn coblets (cook fresh corn and cut from cob....taste makes a big difference), raw, cubed green and red peppers,brocolli, walnuts or pine nuts, any kind of spuds....I like to make home fries. But, you can add diced up boiled spuds, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.

Then add chicken gravy and allow to set before serving.

This is a great dish to freeze for a later date.

Just an aside.....

*soak the chicken cutlets in milk, salt and pepper for 15 minutes (makes a difference...breaks down fibers)

*Instead of spuds, you can add any kind of noodles or rice.

WOW.. I've copied that and will certainly try it. I do love all the herbs you listed. I heard some-where that milk breaks down the fibres in meat. I did Pigs liver tonight but when I've ever cooked ox liver, I soak in milk but didn't know you could do it with chicken also. Thanks Kathy

Re: Old Fashioned Grub....

Kathy, I think your temperature is still wrong. My oven only goes up to 250...(and I never cook at that temperature!)

Hi Clod,

It's correct on an American electric stove. I'm not sure of the differences in our UK and American stove temperatures.

Re: Old Fashioned Grub....

If I recall correctly, to go from Fahrenheit to Celsius you half the number and subtract 32.

So 375 deg F would be er, um, 155.5 deg C? Low heat slow cook?
