Fried Chicken Recipes - Amazingly Delicious!

These fried chicken recipes are delicious. Just check these out and I'm sure you'll be amazingly surprised.

So here we go for some fried chicken recipes:

\"chicken Recipes\"

>>Fried Chicken (Version 1)

Fried Chicken Recipes - Amazingly Delicious!

~2 1/2 pounds fryer (up to 3 lbs) cut in servings

~1 cu flour

~1 teaspoon salt

~1/8 teaspoon pepper

~1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

~1 teaspoon paprika

~1 teaspoon leaf sage or oregano butter or vegetable oil

Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry. Combine flour with remaining ingredients except butter. Toss chicken pieces with flour mixture to coat.

In skillet, heat butter to 1/4-inch depth and cook chicken over medium-high heat until golden brown. Place browned chicken in Crock-Pot, adding wings first; Add no liquid. Cover and cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours.

>>Fried Chicken (Version 2)

~2 -3 1/2 pound Frying chicken cut into 8 pieces Salt Freshly Ground Black Pepper

~2 cups all-purpose flour

~2 tablespoons paprika plus more for the finished chicken vegetable oil

1) Trim the excess fat and skin from each piece of chicken. Sprinkle the pieces with salt and pepper. Stir the flour and paprika together in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour to coat on all sides. Shake off the excess flour.

2) Pour enough vegetable oil into a heavy deep skillet (cast-iron is perfect) to fill it to 2 inches. Heat over medium heat to 375oF (A all cube of bread dropped in the dropped in the oil will brown in about 20 seconds).

3) Add only as many of the chicken pieces as will fit without touching. Overcrowding will lower the temperature of the oil and make your fried chicken greasy. With a long-handled fork or tongs to prevent getting splattered, turn the chicken pieces until they are golden brown on all sides and cooked through, about 6 minutes. The easiest way to tell if the chicken is cooked is to poke a fork down to the bone near the thickest part if the chicken is cooked the juices will run clear, not pink.

4) Remove the chicken pieces from the skillet to drain. If you have to fry the chicken in batches, keep the fried chicken warm on a baking sheet in a 250 of oven. When all the chicken is fried, sprinkle the pieces with paprika and serve hot.

Fast Crock Pot Recipes! Easy to Make and Never Boring Crock Pot Chicken Recipes!

Tired of the same old crockpot recipes? I'm going to give you 2 that are different, so easy and delicious! What's worse than the same old chicken, carrots and potatoes? That's a good meal, but you get tired of it quickly. So here are a couple that are a little bit different. There are 2 things you need to remember when it comes to crock pot cooking.

1. Don't put frozen meat in the crock pot. Slow cookers bring up the temperature of meat slowly. That's the point isn't it? But if meat doesn't reach 140 degrees within 4 hours, you run the risk of developing bacteria in your food. We don't want this, so no frozen meat. No matter what other recipes say.

\"chicken Recipes\"

2. All crock pots cook differently. Timing will vary for each one. However, you must be absolutely sure that your crock pot brings food up to 140 degrees when on LOW. If it doesn't, you need a new one. So, get a meat thermometer and test it.

Different Types of Noodles For Tasty Soup Recipes

There are lots of kinds of noodles and you could use any of them in a soup recipe, depending on what kind of soup are making and what other ingredients you are going to use. For a traditional chicken noodle soup recipe, for example, you might choose egg noodles but you could substitute another kind of noodles if you wanted to.

Noodles Made from Egg

\"recipe Chicken\"

Egg noodles are very popular and they feature in a lot of Asian recipes, as well as in soups like chicken noodle soup. Egg noodles can be dried or fresh, round or flat and thick, medium or thin. They have to be cooked in boiling water. If you are making a chicken noodle soup recipe or something similar, use fresh egg noodles rather than dried ones for the best results.

Different Types of Noodles For Tasty Soup Recipes

Hokkien noodles are made from wheat flour and egg and these are yellow and thick. You can find them vacuum-packed or fresh in Asian grocery stores. Ramen noodles are the Japanese equivalent to Chinese egg noodles. "Ramen" actually means Chinese noodle. Ramen noodles are thin and you need to keep them in the refrigerator until you use them.

Other Kinds

Rice stick noodles are flat and translucent. You can use them in salads or soup recipes and you have to soak them in warm water before using them. Fresh rice kinds can be thick or thin and they are steamed and oiled, then packaged. Do not refrigerate fresh rice or they will become hard. Dried rice vermicelli are thin and white. They are good at absorbing flavors from other foods.

Wheat flour noodles like udon noodles are Japanese in origin and these need to be boiled, and then added to soup recipes. Soba noodles can be made with buckwheat or wheat flour.

Mung bean thread vermicelli are also known as glass noodles or cellophane noodles and these are made from mung beans. They need to be soaked and drained before being added to recipes.

How to Make Easy Beef Noodle Soup

The following recipe makes enough beef soup to serve a family of four. For this soup, you can use beef-flavored ramen noodles, which come with a seasoning packet. If you prefer, you can use another type of noodles and add some extra soy sauce to the soup instead of the seasoning packet. For a chicken noodle soup, substitute three boneless chicken breasts for the beef and use chicken flavored pasta.

You will need:

1 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 chopped onion
6 oz beef-flavored ramen noodles
1 head chopped Chinese cabbage
4 cups water
2 minced cloves garlic
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons vegetable oil

How to make it:

Brown the beef in a skillet, then drain off the fat. Put the browned beef in a big pan and add the garlic, ginger, and onion. Add the water and bring the mixture to a boil.

Stir in the Chinese cabbage, turn the heat down, and simmer the beef soup for three minutes. Stir in the ramen noodles and simmer until the vegetables are al dente and the noodles are soft. Stir in the oil, seasoning packets and soy sauce, and serve the soup hot.

Different Types of Noodles For Tasty Soup Recipes

Noodles are healthy and make a great change from potatoes or rice. You can make delicious recipes like chicken noodle soup using any type of noodles. Noodles add flavor to a chicken soup recipe, making it tasty as well as satisfying. There are lots of types of noodles you can choose from to use in soup recipes. No wonder chicken noodle soup is one of the most satisfying and soothing foods ever.

Best of the Really Spicy Authentic Jamaican Jerk Chicken Recipes

Most Jamaican Jerk Chicken Recipes found outside of Jamaica are a major disappointment. They usually consist of some weak, slightly spicy chicken breast that is grilled and served. These jerk recipes do not even come close to what you will find in the jerk huts of Jamaica.

This Jamaican jerk chicken recipe will change all that. We're talking about smoking-hot, well-seasoned jerk chicken, cooked the way it was meant to be. The flavor goes right to the bone, and the complexity of all the ingredients is mind-blowing.

\"chicken Recipe\"

This authentic jerk recipe begins with a wet marinade over thighs and drumsticks, and never breasts. The really important flavors in this recipe are thyme, allspice, and hot chiles. This recipe does not skimp on chiles and is very spicy. It uses a charcoal grill for best results and authenticity.

Best of the Really Spicy Authentic Jamaican Jerk Chicken Recipes

In Jamaica, jerk chicken is normally cooked over pimento branches (allspice). If apple wood is easier to find, we will be using that. But extra allspice will have to be added to make up the difference. The chicken is smoked at slow temperatures for a time, then grilled quickly to crisp up the skin.

Authentic Jamaican Jerk Chicken Recipe

This makes enough jerk chicken for about 4-6 servings, so double the recipe if needed.

Marinade
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 bunch of green onions, white and green parts roughly chopped
3 large garlic cloves, roughly chopped
2-3 habanero or Scotch bonnet peppers, stemmed and seeded
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 2 tsp. dried)
1 tablespoon ground allspice
1 tablespoon kosher or sea salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon dry or freshly grated nutmeg
3 pounds bone-in chicken drums and thighs
2 large handfuls apple wood chips, soaked in water for about 30 minutes

1) Combine the marinade ingredients and process in a blender or food processor for about one minute until pulverized. Use rubber gloves when handling the peppers.

2) Trim and discard any large pieces of fat on the chicken pieces. Cut a few shallow slits in each piece of chicken. This will let the flavors of the marinade and the smoke seep into the chicken. Place all chicken pieces into a large, sealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade into the bag, seal, and mix it all around the chicken. Place in refrigerator to marinade for 12-16 hours.

3) Prepare a charcoal fire with higher heat on one side, and lower heat on the other (two-tone fire). Push the charcoal all the way to one side so it only covers about 1/3rd of the charcoal grate. If you are using a smoker, set it for a heat range of 225-250 degrees Fahrenheit. Drain the water from the apple chips, and add about half of them to the grill.

4) Remove the chicken from the plastic bag and let sit on a tray for 20-30 minutes before grilling. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and keep it refrigerated for the first hour of the chicken cooking.

5) Use a wire brush to clean the cooking grate. When the apple wood begins to smoke, start grilling the chicken, skin side down, over the side of the grill without the charcoal (indirect heat). Close the lid and keep closed as much as possible.

6) Bring the marinade to a boil, and let it boil for about 30 seconds or so to kill any bacteria. Brush the marinade all over the chicken, then turn skin side up. Add the remaining wood chips, cover, and continue to grill for another 45 minutes to an hour.

7) At this point, the meat will be very tender, but the skin will be soft and rubbery. Move the chicken to the hot side of the grill, skin side down first, and cook until well-browned on all sides (5-10 minutes), turning once or twice, and moving pieces around for even cooking. Serve chicken warm.

Once again, this is not for weak. But the spices and flavors from this authentic Jamaican jerk chicken recipe will have you saying "no worries" in no time.

Caribbean Recipes - Spicy Trinidad Curry Chicken Recipe

Our Caribbean Recipe is one of several. Every Island has their version of curry. This curry chicken recipe comes from Trinidad and is truly Caribbean. The East Indians came to this part of the world after slavery was abolished. Their cuisine went through a metamorphosis and the curry that we cook today bears no resemblance to the ones from India and Pakistan.

Caribbean Recipes - CURRY CHICKEN

\"chicken Recipe\"

2 lb. Chicken breast cut into bite sized pieces 4 potatoes peeled and diced 1 large onion chopped 1 1/2 ozs. Curry powder 6 cloves garlic minced 1/2 tsp. Hot pepper sauce 1 1/2 tsp. Salt or to taste 2 cups water 1/4 cup vegetable oil.

Caribbean Recipes - Spicy Trinidad Curry Chicken Recipe

Secret Ingredient... 3 tbsp. Tamarind paste, 1 large green mango diced or 3 tbsp. lemon juice

The secret to making a really special curry is to stir-fry the dry powder for a few seconds before adding the meat. This process releases the curry flavour which is then absorbed in full by the meat.

* Heat the oil in a saucepan and then add the onion and garlic.

* Stir-fry for two minutes or until the onions go limp.

* Add the salt and curry powder and continue stir frying for about ten seconds more.

* Add the meat and stir to coat with the curry mixture.

* Cover the saucepan and let it cook for about five minutes, stirring at least twice during this time.

* Add the water, pepper sauce, tamarind paste and potatoes and continue to cook on medium heat until the potatoes are soft and the meat is fully cooked. This should take approximately 25 minutes.

Cooking tip: When using lemon juice, do not add until the final ten minutes of cooking. The reason of this, is because the lemon juice prevents the potatoes from becoming soft.

Serve with roti or over hot boiled rice.

This Caribbean Recipe is one of my favourites and I am sure that you will enjoy it as well.

Easy Three Ingredient Boneless Chicken Recipes

If you are the kind of cook who hates making complicated recipes and having to measure out half a teaspoon of this, half a teaspoon of that and half a teaspoon of the other, three ingredient chicken recipes might be just what you are looking for.

After all, chicken has plenty of natural flavor, so why add a lot more? Surely if you add twenty ingredients to boneless chicken, you will not be able to taste the chicken at the end of it. Actually, that is not strictly true and a lot of recipes work on the concept that you need to combine a lot of ingredients to find the perfect flavor combination.

\"chicken Recipes\"

Why Some Recipes are Complex

Easy Three Ingredient Boneless Chicken Recipes

If you make a twenty ingredient Asian boneless chicken recipe, for example, and half of those ingredients are herbs and spices, you will be able to smell several distinct ingredients before taking your first bite. After that, you will have a balanced taste in your mouth and you should be able to differentiate numerous flavors, all of which go together nicely.

This is the type of food you would expect in a restaurant. If you had a suspicion the chef had made your entree using just three ingredients, you would probably feel that you were not getting your money's worth, even if the food was tasty. Complex recipes are also good for special occasions or when you want to impress.

However, what about if you just want to make your family a tasty dinner and you do not have two hours to weigh out and combine ingredients? That is where three ingredient chicken breast recipes are ideal.

Types of Three Ingredient Meals

You can combine chicken with all kinds of other flavors, making it versatile as well as comparatively cheap to buy. Combine some chicken pieces with chopped onion and spicy salsa and bake it for a lively Mexican dish.

You can cook chicken recipes in the crockpot too. Try combining some chicken with frozen vegetables and a bottle of sweet and sour sauce for a tasty Chinese style dish. Swiss cheese stuffed chicken in a canned mushroom and garlic soup is another clever crockpot idea.

Easy Three Ingredient Crockpot Chicken Recipe

This boneless chicken recipe is incredibly simple and makes tasty cheese flavored chicken recipe that you can serve with rice or noodle. You can add some chili powder and black pepper to the chicken and soup before you start cooking it, if you like, if you do not mind turning this into a five-ingredient dish. This recipe makes enough cheesy chicken to serve six people.

You will need:

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
10 oz can condensed Fiesta cheese soup
10 oz can condensed cream of chicken soup

How to make it:

Put the chicken breasts in your crockpot and pour the undiluted soup over the top. Stir to combine. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until the chicken has no pink left inside and its juices run clear when you pierce it with a knife in the thickest part.

Free Homemade Dog Food Recipes

The current crisis in our pet food supply has many of us looking for homemade dog food recipes for our beloved pets. I have been cooking for our dog for many years and find that he likes mostly the same foods that we do. Each animal has his own preferences, just like we do. For instance, our Oscar will not eat tomatoes, but Bonnie loves them. Use these recipes as a starting place for homemade dog food recipes. Then, as you discover your pets preferences you can customize them more. One caution: you should not serve onion or chocolate to dogs as they contain substances that can be toxic to dogs.

Some veterinarians prefer raw meat for our pets. I prefer to cook the meat because of concerns over E Coli and other bacterial contamination. If you wish to use raw meat, do not use ground meat. The grinding process increases the possibility of contamination by providing more surface area for the bacteria to grow.

\"recipe Chicken\"

Use any vegetables you like. You will find over time that your dog will leave any vegetables he does not like. Mix the above. Serve slightly warm, but not hot.

Secrets of Perfectly Moist Chicken Breast Recipes

Sometimes it is difficult to keep boneless chicken recipes moist. Either the breasts meat comes out dry or they are not cooked properly.

You have to be careful when making a chicken breast recipe and that applies to anything from easy chicken enchiladas to chicken stew. Chicken must be cooked to 165 degrees F in order to be safe to eat but a lot of people overcook the chicken and dried out chicken is not enjoyable to eat!

\"recipe Chicken\"

There are various ways to cook boneless chicken recipes, including grilling, steaming, sauteing, deep frying and baking, but one of the best secrets for moist chicken breast recipes is to poach the chicken in a little liquid after sealing the outside. Not only does this cooking method add lots of flavor but it stops the chicken from drying out.

Secrets of Perfectly Moist Chicken Breast Recipes

An Easy Recipe for Moist Chicken Breast

This recipe makes enough chicken for two people. A nonstick stainless steel skillet is best to use, if you have one. The amounts of broth, flour and olive oil are approximate and it depends on the size of the breasts and the size and shape of your skillet.

Serve this delicious poached chicken with mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables for a wholesome and delicious dinner. You can use any herbs you like, so feel free to substitute the rosemary and oregano for parsley, cilantro, thyme or even a pinch of mixed herbs.

You will need:

2 chicken breasts
1/2 pint chicken broth
Salt and black pepper
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

How to make it:

Sprinkle salt and pepper over the chicken and then dredge them in flour, shaking off the excess. Preheat a skillet over a medium heat until it can evaporate droplets of water you drop into it. Pour a little olive oil into the pan. You could also use canola oil or any fat with a high smoke point. You should coat the bottom of the pan with oil but that is enough.

Add the chicken breasts to the hot pan and sear them for a couple of minutes until they are golden brown. Turn them over and sear the other side. If you are going to double this recipe, do two chicken breasts at a time. Crowding the skillet means you will not be able to brown all your chicken properly.

Turn the heat down to low, and then add chicken broth. It needs to come a third of the way up the chicken breast. If you add to much you will be boiling the chicken, which is not what you want. Add the onions, rosemary, oregano, garlic and lemon.

Cover the pan with a lid that fits tightly and cook the chicken breasts over a low heat until they are done. They are done when a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F in the thickest part of the chicken breast. If you do not have a meat thermometer, cut into the chicken. It is done when it is white all the way through with no hint of pink in the middle.

Secrets of Perfectly Moist Chicken Breast Recipes

Poaching boneless chicken in a little broth or water is one of the best ways to keep the chicken moist, tender and delicious. Whether you want to make easy chicken enchiladas or another chicken breast recipe, knowing how to keep your chicken tender is very important.

Boneless Chicken Thigh Recipes

Chicken thighs are often overlooked in recipes because of the popularity of boneless chicken breasts, which are more in demand. However, chicken thighs are juicier and much more flavorful. They are also very economical and if you are on a tight budget, there are lots of chicken thigh recipes you can make, whether you are looking for something international like easy chicken enchiladas or something for the summer like grilled chicken recipes.

You can use boneless chicken thighs in casseroles and stews and pretty much any dish where you would normally use chicken breast. You might like to use some chicken breast and some chicken thigh, for a contrast in flavors and textures.

\"grilled Chicken\"

How to De-Bone a Chicken Thigh

Bone-in chicken is cheaper than ones are which have been de-boned for you, so it is well worth learning how to take the bones out of your own. Taking the bone out of a chicken thigh is simple and it also means the chicken will have a shorter cooking time. If you are cutting up a whole chicken, you will need a sharp knife to slice through the joint where the drumstick meets the thigh. You will find the cartilage very soft so it is easy to cut.

Bone the drumstick using the same method as you used for the thigh. Cut along the top of the bone and slice deeply until the knife is touching the bone. You will be able to see the white bone in the cut you have made. Pull the bone upwards and away from the chicken thigh.

Cut into the chicken some more, so that you can remove the bone altogether. You will probably have to slice some more of the meat off the bone so you can get it out. Keep slicing away bits of sinew, tendons and skin until you have a boneless thigh.

Recipe for Crockpot Chicken Thighs in an Herby Orange Sauce

This is such a simple recipe and the fact that you can use a slow cooker means that you can leave this recipe to cook by itself all day while you are out. Serve this tangy citrus chicken dish with noodles or rice and perhaps some broccoli or beans on the side. This recipe serves four people.

You will need:

2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken thighs, in 1 inch pieces
Juice from 1 orange
Zest from 2 oranges
1/2 teaspoon crushed dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried rosemary
4 slices crumbled, cooked lean bacon
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
2 crushed garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
3 peeled, diced carrots
1 chopped onion
14 1/2 oz can diced peeled tomatoes
6 oz can tomato paste

How to make it:

Remove any visible fat from the chicken, then combine it with the orange juice and half the zest, tomatoes and their liquid, oregano, thyme, pepper, garlic, rosemary, onion, carrot, basil and tomato paste in a three and a half quart crockpot. Cover and cook on "low" for about six hours or until the chicken thighs are cooked through. Stir in the rest of the orange zest, the lemon juice, and sugar. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the finished dish.

The 10 Most Popular French Recipes

Despite new trends, hype and marketing, tradition has never been stronger. In France, good food still means authentic cooking by using natural products from diverse regions. This is how we celebrate human being by offering the best food to all our senses. Cooking home-made food and eating at the table make your appetite grow stronger. The challenge is to combine ingredients together to get the best taste out of them. However anyone from anywhere can explore the world of french cooking. To start with, let's find out what french people enjoy to eat.

Here are the top 10 most popular recipes in France:

\"roast Chicken\"

Roast Chicken

Indeed roast chicken is not a notorious french recipe but cooked everywhere around the world from Asia and Africa to America. However it is the most popular french dish. Roast chicken is not stuffed inside. The secret is to baste the poultry several times during roasting with butter and cooking oil and to add an onion in the roasting pan. Roast chicken is traditionally served with potatoes and green beans.

Boeuf bourguignon

The most famous beef stew in France. Boeuf bourguignon is a traditional recipe from Burgundy. A recipe that french people use to cook at least once every winter. The beef meat is cooked in a red wine sauce, obviously a red wine from Burgundy. Bacon, onions, mushrooms and carrots add flavor to the recipe. But thyme, garlic and beef stock are essential to cook a good boeuf bourguignon.

Mussels mariniere

A typical summer recipe very popular along the Atlantic and Mediterranean coast. Mussels are fresh and cooked in a white wine sauce with parsley, thyme, bay leaf and onion. It takes only 5 minutes to cook a tasteful mussels mariniere. The secret is to season carefully the meal and to discard any mussels that don't look good enough.

Sole meuniere

Although sole is an expensive fish, the taste is so elegant that it is considered as the noblest fish. Sole meuniere is a recipe from Normandy. The fish is cooked in a butter sauce with a little bit of flour and lemon juice. Sole is traditionally served with rice or green vegetables.

Pot au feu

A typical family meal coming once again from Normandy. Pot au feu is a boiled beef with pork, chicken and vegetables. It takes about 4 hours an a half to cook as the beef has to simmer slowly to extract all its flavor. Pot au feu is also called Potee Normande in France.

Sauerkraut

Quite similar to the german sauerkraut, the french sauerkraut called choucroute comes from Alsace. However the french recipe can be traced back to 6 centuries ago ! Sauerkraut is a fermented cabbage. Commonly sauerkraut includes sausages, pork knuckle and bacon. Two essential ingredients are alsatian white wine and juniper berries.

Veal stew

Called blanquette de veau in France, this is another stew recipe from Normandy. The veal meat simmers in white sauce - as blanquette from blanc stands for white in french - with mushrooms and onions. The white sauce is made of egg yolks, whipping cream and lemon juice. Veal stew is usually served with rice.

Lamb navarin

Another stew but this one is made of lamb meat. It is also called spring lamb as it comes with green vegetables available in spring. Navarin comes from navet which stands for turnips in french. Other ingredients are tomatoes, lamb stock and carrots. This stew takes less time to simmer than any other.

Cassoulet

A strange recipe that english people often confuse with their traditional breakfast! A traditional meal from south west of France. Each village has its own recipe but it always includes beans and meats. Cassoulet is a rich combination of white beans and depending on the village lamb, pork, mutton or sausage meat. Cassoulet is the cornerstone of the french paradox study describing why people from south west of France suffer less than others from infarcts.

Bouillabaisse

Bouillabaisse is closely linked with the city of Marseille on the Mediterranean coast. The recipe is a fish soup from local fish and seafood products including crabs, scorpion fish, monk fish and others. Provencal herbs and olive oil are essential. For a long time, the recipe was a secret jealously kept by the people from Marseille.

Cold Starter Recipes For a Dinner Party

Cold starter recipes are very popular, especially if you are serving a hot main course, since you will get the temperature contrast as well as a flavour contrast. There are so many different starter recipes you can choose from if you want to make something chilled.

Classic starters include prawn cocktail, parma ham with melon or even an easy chicken salad recipe. If you are catering for a buffet, you will want to make different cold starters than if you were, for example, hosting a dinner party. With a dinner party, everybody gets their own plate and with a buffet people help themselves from big platters.

\"chicken Salad\"

Examples of Easy Starter Recipes

If you only want to use a few ingredients, what about making a classic starter recipe - something that everybody knows and loves? You can even go retro with this one and make a prawn cocktail. All you will need for a basic one is some iceberg lettuce, prawns, marie rose sauce, cucumber slices and a sprinkling of paprika.

Another good one would be a chilled soup. Have you ever tried chilled soup recipes? They are great because you can make this in advance, then leave it in the fridge while you work on the main course.

Gazpacho is a typical chilled Spanish soup, made with tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumber, olive oil and more. Then there are chilled fruit soups like strawberry soup or melon soup. These are unusual but really easy to make, even if you are a bit of a novice in the kitchen.

Starters in a Hurry

Do you only have a few minutes to put your cold starter recipes together? You can make devils on horseback with chicken livers, bacon and toast, or what about parma ham draped over a slice of melon? This takes less than two minutes to make!

If you are really in a rush or your planned starters have gone wrong, try a Mediterranean platter. Simply arrange some cubes of cheese, olives and cold meats on a big platter and let people help themselves. Salami and chorizo work well and you can have black olives, green ones and maybe stuffed ones too.

Starter recipes are supposed to whet the appetite and get people in the mood for the main course, so do not worry too much about making something elaborate. Choose an easy starter recipe and you will not go wrong.

Chicken Curry Recipes - Chicken Madras

Chicken Madras is a dish that can be found in Indian restaurants all over the world and for many people it is among their choice of top chicken curry recipes. Chicken Madras comes from southern India and the curry is quite hot owing to a fairly large amount of chilli in the recipe although it can be reduced if necessary if it is too hot for your taste.

Below is a version of the Chicken Madras curry I've been preparing for a few years, which is based on that which appears in Pat Chapman's book Indian Restaurant Cookbook. The main difference is in the spice mix, which adds a larger number of spices into the initial spice mix and does away with the addition of garam massala towards the end. Another difference is that this recipe doesn't call for tomato paste to be added, which to my mind makes the sauce taste too much of tomato, and the lemon is added much earlier to be absorbed by the chicken.

\"chicken Curry\"

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts cut into bite sized pieces

vegetable oil

1 onion sliced into thin strips

1 tin tomatoes

juice of 1/2 lemon

Spices:

4 dry red chillis

1/2 teaspoon black pepper corns

1/2 teaspoon chilli powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

teaspoon cumin seeds

teaspoon fenugreek seeds

teaspoon turmeric

2 cardomoms

pinch cinnamon

4 cloves

pinch coriander power

pinch ginger powder

pinch mustard seeds

Method:

1. Fry the chicken in about 3-4 tablespoons of vegetable oil to colour and remove from the frying pan.

2. Add the onion until golden then add the spices. Mix the spices and blitz before adding to the pan and fry for about 5 minutes, adding a little water if necessary.

3. Add the chicken and pour the lemon juice over. Stir well.

4. Chop the tomatoes and stir into the mix. Cook at medium heat for about 10 minutes.

5. Cook in a a medium oven for 45 minutes and serve with basmati rice.
