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.
