OSCAR FOOD RECIPES

Steps:

• Place chicken between 2 pieces of wax paper on a cutting board and pound very thin.
• Combine the flour, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl.
• Heat the butter in a heavy skillet. Dip the chicken pieces lightly in the seasoned flour and shake off excess.
• When the butter stops foaming, add the chicken and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden. Remove to a heated serving platter as the remaining pieces are cooked.
• While the chicken is cooking, make the hollandaise sauce per package directions. Keep warm.
• Cover each slice of chicken with crabmeat and top with 3 asparagus spears.
• Drizzle hollandaise sauce over asparagus and serve.

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts, one at a time, into a plastic bag; pound to 1/4-inch thick, and then cut each in half. Dredge in a mix of flour, salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet, browning each side for 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and sprinkle with flaked crabmeat, garnish with asparagus tips.
• Prepare the hollandaise, blending the ingredients (except butter) together. While blending, slowly drizzle in melted butter. Ladle over top of crabmeat and chicken.
• Sprinkle with paprika and parsley and heat through, in a 350°F oven about 10 minutes.

• Tips: Zap leftover sauce in microwave for 30 seconds and use to spoon over a side dish of asparagus.
• COW SOUP MIX: (Cream-Of-Whatever) 2 c powdered milk (best if NOT instant), 3/4 c Instant ClearJel®*, 3 Tbsp dry chicken bouillon, 1 Tbsp onion powder, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp white pepper. Mix thoroughly, store in an airtight container and use within 12 months.
• Freeze leftover egg whites in an ice cube tray. To brush as "glue" for seeds or toppings over bread dough, thaw and mix with a little water.
• *Instant ClearJel®: Which I affectionately refer to as ICJ. For info about this amazing modified food starch (MFS thickener) visit my cooking site. http://www.sharonanne.com/mfs_chart.htm.
