CHICKEN-MACAD(M) USENET Cookbook CHICKEN-MACAD(M) QUICK MACADAMIA CHICKEN CHICKEN-MACAD - Quick and easy chicken with macadamia nuts and honey I devised this recipe last year. We like it a lot, and it's very quick. INGREDIENTS (serves 2) 1 garlic clove, pressed 4 chicken breasts, boned 1/4 tsp dill 1/2 sweet red pepper 1/4 lb green beans (optional) 1 large tomato 1/8 lb macademia nuts 4 Tbsp honey 1/8 tsp sesame seeds sesame oil PROCEDURE (1) Slice or chop all ingredients. Saut' the garlic in the sesame oil, until just fragrant. Add the dill and the chicken, and saut' for about five minutes. (2) Add the green beans and the red pepper; saut' for another couple of minutes. (3) Add the tomato and the macademia nuts; saut' another minute or two. (4) Add the honey and the sesame seeds. Continue cooking just long enough to warm the honey. NOTES This is wonderful served with couscous. I recommend using chicken broth when cooking the couscous. If you want to take the time, you can thicken the sauce with 1/4 tsp arrowroot, or some cornstarch. RATING Difficulty: easy. Time: 20 minutes. Precision: no need to measure. CONTRIBUTOR Alan M.
