RUTABAGA COLE SLAW

CORNFLAKE-CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH RED CABBAGE SLAW AND RUTABAGA POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potato and rutabaga in a medium saucepan with salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Drain, and force through a food mill or potato ricer. Stir in 2 tablespoons milk and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Set aside; keep warm, or reheat just before serving.
• Meanwhile, combine cabbage, carrot, chives, vinegar, sugar, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and remaining 1/2 cup milk. Toss well, and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place chicken in a medium bowl; sprinkle with cornstarch and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dip chicken in egg whites, and dredge in cornflakes, turning to completely coat. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; add oil, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Add chicken, and cook until crisp and golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn over; transfer pan to oven, and cook until chicken is firm to the touch, about 7 minutes. Transfer to cutting board; slice diagonally into thin strips, if desired.
• Place a mound of slaw on each serving plate, and top with chicken. Serve rutabaga-potato mixture on the side.

ONE POT MEAL - CABBAGE, KIELBASA, RUTABAGA & MORE

Steps:

• 1. Before getting started, clean and pare vegetables. Shallot, garlic and jalapeno small dice. Cut the carrots in thirds, *rutabaga in bite sized chunks, small red potatoes can be quartered. *NOTE: Rutabaga is very hard and usually comes covered in wax. Use a sharp paring knife when cutting off the wax. When cutting into chunks, it is easier to start cutting on one side, rather than dead center. I like to cut into wide slices, then lay flat and cut into chunks.
• 2. In a large Dutch oven, over med heat, add the 2 teaspoons of olive oil. To the heated olive oil, add the diced shallot, garlic and jalapeno, cook until the shallot is silvery looking, 3-4mins.
• 3. Add to the pot, carrot and rutabaga chunks, stir to combine and let cook until they start to soften, abt.10mins.
• 4. Add the quartered red potatoes, stir to combine and let cook, maybe 5mins. Stirring often to keep vegetables from sticking. If need be, add about 1/2 cup of water, or broth if desired.
• 5. For the Kielbasa; you can cut the links any way you like. For this recipe I cut each link in 4 chunks. Add Kielbasa to the pot and stir to combine
• 6. For the cabbage; it can be cut in any way you like. For this application I sliced it in wide ribbons, however it can be cut into fourths, if you prefer. Place cabbage on top of vegetables and kielbasa. Season with pepper, and salt if desired, to taste.
• 7. Add about 1 cup of water to pot, place a vented lid on top of pot, turn burner to med low. Simmer, until vegetables are tender, and the kielbasa is nicely cooked through. Making sure the pot does not cook dry, continue to add water or broth as needed.
• 8. Serve this meal with a nice skillet of hot out of the oven cornbread, with butter. Enjoy!
