Chicken Omelet

Oooohhh my goodness. So I worked a super long shift at work and didn't eat breakfast before I went in. I was so hungry! I had to be a little creative. So I made a chicken omelet! so good!!!!!

Chicken Omelet

Ingredients:
One small chicken breast (I used the Sicilian chicken and it was amazing, but you could just season it with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic and have the same effect)
3 large eggs
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chopped green pepper
Butter

Instructions:
1) Cook chicken with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic.
2) Tear chicken into small pieces. Having it torn is better than cut because the egg can get into it more.
3) Sauté onion and green pepper in butter, remove from pan.
4) Add more butter, if needed. Scramble eggs and pour in hot pan.
5) Let the eggs cook for a few seconds. Add chicken, onion, and green pepper.
6) Continue to cook until eggs are not runny. Fold the omelet and voila! You've got a tasty breakfast!

Chicken A La King

This has become a real favorite for me. I took it from a bunch of different recipes and made up my own. Hope you like it! I sure do!

Chicken A La King

Ingredients:
3-4 chicken breasts
3 cups uncooked long grain brown rice
One medium onion, chopped
Half of a Green Bell Pepper, chopped
Half of a Red Bell Pepper, chopped
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1/2 cup rice milk
salt
pepper

Instructions:
1) Cook the rice in about 7 cups of water.
2) Boil chicken breasts in water and onion.
3) Put chicken, onion, and water in separate bowl, cut chicken into bite size pieces, set aside.
4) Melt butter in same pan used to boil chicken.
5) Add peppers, sauté until tender.
6) Blend in brown rice flour.
7) Add rice milk and mix.
8) Add water and onion from chicken, stir until desired consistency is achieved, if it's still too thick, add water or rice milk for a richer flavor.
9) Add salt and pepper to taste.
10) Serve on top of brown rice.

And now back to studying for my final. :) Think good thoughts for me!

Sicilian Chicken Marinade

I work at a restaurant as a cook on campus at BYU. We have this amazing Sicilian Chicken Marinade. The original recipe makes 100 chicken breasts but I've cut it way down. Mathematically cut, the recipe has way too much lemon. The next time I made it, to take it to a church BBQ, I didn't really measure anything. So here's my estimates now. lol

6 chicken breasts
1 teaspoon teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups olive oil
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon chopped garlic

If the chicken is thawed, marinade for at least 30 minutes. If it's frozen, marinade until it is thawed and marinade for another 30 minutes.


I'll try this again soon sticking to the recipe so I can report back on whether it's accurate. But you go ahead and try it! A big part of cooking is experimentation. It becomes very fun. :)

Frosting

So I found a frosting recipe that's one part coconut oil and two parts agave nectar with a some vanilla to taste. I thought it was super sweet but good. I then found out that Agave is extremely high in fructose, which is just not good for anyone in large amounts. So I tried the same recipe with Brown Rice Syrup to replace the Agave. I liked it a lot better. It wasn't overwhelming sweet but still enjoyable. I liked to put it on my brown rice cakes. Well, as I was just writing out the list of my allergies in the previous post, I realized that I'm allergic to Brown Rice Syrup. Just my luck. Who would have thought it'd be so hard to find a good sweetener to bake with? I've heard Stevia is the best sweetener around but I don't know how it works with baking. If you have any experience with Stevia, please share.

Welcome!

I've begun a quest to create delicious foods that I can eat! I have about 40 food allergies. I went to my natropath, Dr. Heather Roberts, in December of 2009. I thought she was going to give me some ointment to make my acne go away. Little did I know that the cause of my acne was so many toxins built up in my body that my kidney and liver couldn't handle it. So my body was pushing the toxins through my skin. Lovely, right? Well, through some muscle testing we found that because I was eating all of these foods I was allergic to I was continuing to get more toxins in my body. Now I am eating allergen free. A lot of people think it's odd. Some people think it's cool. I think it's annoying. I've had to change my lifestyle so I can cook and eat. I have to bring my own food to social gatherings and then answer any questions. However, I'm seeing the benefits. I have more energy, my mind is more clear, and I eat amazing food. So, I created this blog as an easy way to share my experiences and my food. Enjoy!
