I need a good recipe for boneless skinless chicken breasts (2). I have asparagus, onion, spices, red bell pepper, canned dices tomato, canned corn, celery, beer, butter, olive oil…

I figured since I’m asking for a good recipie I might as well give you one. So here it it…

It makes 2 to 4 servings depending on how hungry everyone is.
You need about 1/3 package egg noodles (the twisty kind)
cheese (I used a mix of parmesan, 1/2 cup mexican blend, and 1/2 cup colby jack)
butter
olive and or canola oil
about 1 cup frozen peas
1/2 onion
Munchies (I used ranch)
about 2/3 cup milk
spices (I used a dash on onion powder and about a teaspoon or garlic powder)
Cook noodles according to package, strain then stir in butter and a little olive oil until coated
Add a couple shakes of parmesan, milk and spices
Dice onion and saute’ until caramelized
Add onion, cheese and peas and mix
Grease a small glass baking dish and add cruched Munchies (don’t add pretzels) to the bottom
Pour macaroni mixture over the Munchies
Bake in oven at 350 until cheese is melted and browned around edges
I covered it at first then right before it was done I took off the lid and added more mexican blend cheese It was sooooo good I recommend it to anyone.
I can grill, bake, fry, or steam…

You may do this with boneless or split breasts with the bones in . Asparagus goes really well with this and maybe some buttered noodles . I will even give you a great sauce for the asparagus or the chicken .

FOOD WARNING BACTERIA
Bacteria may be present on products when you purchase them. Raw meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs are not sterile. Neither is fresh produce such as lettuce, tomatoes, sprouts, and melons.

Foods, including safely cooked, ready-to-eat foods, can become cross contaminated with bacteria transferred from raw products, meat juices or other contaminated products, or from food handlers with poor personal hygiene.

Botulism, a life-threatening illness caused by the bacteria Clostridium outline, were reported in the United States. Frozen, fully cooked products were suspected of causing these illnesses. The Food Safety and Inspection Service advises all consumers to handle frozen, fully-cooked products in accordance with these food safety recommendations.

Before buying frozen, fully cooked products carefully inspect the container or package. If the package is punctured, torn, partially opened, or damaged in any other way that might expose the contents to the outside environment, do NOT purchase the product.

 
Do not purchase frozen products that appear to have thawed and refrozen. Reject all swollen or gassy containers or spoiled foods.

Buy food from reputable dealers, with a known record of safe handling. Buy frozen products only if they are frozen solid and only if stored in the freezer case. Observe any use-by or sell-by dates on the package.

When you open the container, inspect the product. Do not use products that are discoloured, mouldy, or have an off odour. Do not use products that spurt liquid or foam when the container is opened. Do not taste the product to determine if it is safe.
Follow the preparation instructions on the product label.
Handling Possibly Contaminated Products Report any suspect commercial food products to your local health department.

If a suspect food is opened in your kitchen, thoroughly scrub the can opener or other utensils, containers, counters, etc., that might have contacted the food or its container. Discard any sponges or cloths used in the cleanup. Wash your hands thoroughly. Promptly launder any clothing that might have been splattered upon.

Botulism is a rare but serious paralytic illness caused by a nerve toxin. Symptoms of botulism include double vision, blurred vision, drooping eyelids, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, and muscle weakness. The illness can cause paralysis, respiratory failure and death. Symptoms usually occur from 18 to 36 hours after eating contaminated food. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a physician.

Many frozen chicken products, such as chicken Kiev and chicken cordon bleu, may appear to be precooked, but are actually only prebreaded or prebrowned.

Use a meat thermometer and make sure the internal temperature of the chicken is at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit.  . This means really cooking the chicken, in a regular oven or microwave, not merely thawing it.

Salmonella Typhimurium Outbreak

Clearly, what began as an investigation of bulk peanut butter shipped to nursing homes and institutional cafeterias is now much broader.

It includes not just peanut butter, but baked goods and other products containing peanuts that are sold directly to consumers. Health officials say as many as one-third of those who got sick did not recall eating peanut butter.

“The focus is on peanut butter and a wide array of products that might have peanut butter in them,” said Dr. Robert Tauxe, director of the foodborne illness division at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Federal health authorities told consumers on Saturday to avoid eating products that contain peanut butter until they can determine the scope of an outbreak of salmonella food poisoning that may have contributed to six deaths.

“We urge consumers to postpone eating any products that may contain peanut butter until additional information becomes available,” Dr. Stephen Sundlof of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Food Safety said in a teleconference with reporters.

Officials said they are focusing on peanut paste, as well as peanut butter, produced at a Blakely, Ga., facility owned by Peanut Corp. of America.  Peanut paste is significant because it can be used in dozens of products, from baked goods to cooking sauces.

Law Firm Information

Fred Pritzker is founder and president of Pritzker Law, a firm with involvement in practically every major food poisoning outbreak including the Peter Pan peanut butter Salmonella outbreak and the Taste of Chicago Salmonella outbreak in 2007, among many others. The firm has collected millions of dollars on behalf of victims of food poisoning. For more information, visit http://www.pritzkerlaw.com/

1 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour
3/4 cup(s) Dutch-processed unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
3/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1/2 cup(s) (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup(s) dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup(s) sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup(s) milk-chocolate chips
1 cup(s) confectioners’ sugar

1. Make the dough: Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside. Cream butter until smooth in a large bowl with an electric mixer set on medium speed. Add the sugars and beat until combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix thoroughly. Reduce mixer speed to medium low, add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, and mix until a soft dough forms. Add chocolate chips and mix to incorporate. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
2. Bake the cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper and set aside. Place the confectioners’ sugar in a medium bowl and set aside. Keeping dough well chilled, shape 1 tablespoon of dough into a ball. Roll the ball in the confectioners’ sugar to coat generously — do not shake off excess sugar. Place balls 2 inches apart on prepared baking pans. Bake until cookies have puffed and cracked and are slightly firm to the touch — 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
