    Honey Game Hens (Paula Deen)

    I just tried this Paula Deen recipe for Thanksgiving and it was a big success so I thought I would share it. I made this for just 4 hens and appreciated having extra marinade. It won’t be enough to cover all the hens in your bowl so I rotated the hens and kept them in the fridge past the hour. Given the ingredients for the sauce you can’t go wrong! I did find I had to heat it much longer than Deen says. Be sure to read the recipe entirely and plan ahead! Ingredients 1/2 cup honey 1/2 cup soy sauce 1 (1 inch) piece peeled and chopped ginger 4…

    Double Crunch Honey Garlic Chicken

    This one is a real winner.  I found for a pound of chicken I could reduce the egg wash by half, and the 8-spice dredge mix is good for another 1-2 batches – you’ll want to freeze and label it.  This recipe comes courtesy of Rock Recipes and Barry C Parsons and is heavenly.  When I threw out the extra sauce by accident someone must have been cutting onions nearby… Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 10-15 minutes Total time: Aprox 1/2 hour Yield: 4 servings Ingredients 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (I use a Costco tenderloin pack, little over a pound each, and I skip the flattening step…

    Perfect Pork Loin / Tenderloin

    Originally posted on food.com, my 10-year-old was very impressed with this recipe.  I used 1.5 lbs pre-sliced pork loin and instead of baking it, simply pan-cooked it for a few minutes each side.  Worked like a charm and cut down the cooking time.  Served with spaezle noodles, and you get plenty of sauce. Servings: 4 2 lbs pork loin (unseasoned) 2 tablespoons garlic (minced) 4 green onions (sliced) 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1/2 cup soy sauce 1 tablespoon ginger 1/2 cup honey or 1/2 cup apricot preserves 1/2 cup red wine Directions: In a large zip lock bag, mix together all ingredients and add the pork loin. Let it marinade…
