If you’ve never had fried turkey before, prepare to be wowed. You can cook an entire turkey in under an hour. The skin is amazingly cripsy and flavorful, and the meat is wonderfully juicy. I like to throw cut up [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/beer-n-butter-poultry-injection-111.htm/feed 1 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/roast-cornish-hens-with-cranberry-thyme-sauce-461.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/roast-cornish-hens-with-cranberry-thyme-sauce-461.htm#comments Thu, 19 Feb 2009 01:46:33 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/?p=461       Continuing with the red theme of the Valentine’s Day dinner I served last Saturday, I chose this recipe for the main course.

Ah, the good old days! Haha! I do still try to eat healthy, but I’m just not as disciplined as I once was. I still love this recipe, though. It isn’t really a substitute when you’re craving beef.

After working all day an spending an hour in traffic coming home, I don’t always feel like cooking. This recipe, adapted from the September 1999 issue of Cooking Light, can be thrown together in a few minutes before heading out the door in the morning.

Allrecipes.com has a recipe that’s a compromise between canned and homemade broth. It uses a pre-cooked, store bought chicken and simmers the skin and bones in a mixture [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/easy-chicken-and-rice-soup-228.htm/feed 0 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/herb-roasted-turkey-with-shallot-pan-gravy-207.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/herb-roasted-turkey-with-shallot-pan-gravy-207.htm#comments Sat, 24 Nov 2007 19:39:14 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/herb-roasted-turkey-with-shallot-pan-gravy-207.htm I like to use different recipes for turkey, gravy and stuffing each year. It keeps things interesting for me, and the end result is always a surprise. That may change since making this turkey and gravy from the November 2000 issue of Bon Appétit. Everyone at dinner raved about it, especially my husband.

My husband was so impressed with it. I thought for sure I’d made it for him before, I guess I hadn’t.

They’re incredibly versatile. Scan your fridge for leftover cooked meats and diced vegetables, and you’re halfway there. This is my favorite way to make quesadillas: Ingredients: 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast 1/4 teaspoon creole seasoning, or to taste 2 tablespoons butter or margarine 4 [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/grilled-chicken-quesadillas-163.htm/feed 1 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/sauteed-chicken-with-mushroom-gravy-157.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/sauteed-chicken-with-mushroom-gravy-157.htm#comments Thu, 26 Jul 2007 01:52:43 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/sauteed-chicken-with-mushroom-gravy-157.htm I thawed out some chicken having no idea what I planned to do with it.
