BEST DAMN GEORGE FOREMAN GRILL CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat your grill with the lid closed for at least 5 minutes or until it indicates hot.
• If necessary, pound chicken breasts to 1/2″ thick or slice in half horizontally.
• Add olive oil to chicken. Mix dry ingredients and rub onto chicken.
• Add seasoned chicken to preheated grill, close lid, and grill 4-6 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°(F). Give the chicken a turn halfway through cooking to get the nice crisscrossed grill marks.
• Let rest for 2 minutes before enjoying.

PULLED CHICKEN EMPANADAS

Steps:

• Put the onion, pepper, and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. While this is cooking, pull the meat from the chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Add the chicken to the skillet along with the tomatoes, Creole seasoning, olives, hot sauce, and salt and pepper, to taste. Bring this to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. Let cool while you make the dough.
• Stir together the arepa flour and warm water with your hands until the dough is smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 5 minutes. Take a piece of the dough and roll it into a ball about the size of a lemon. Put it on a piece of plastic wrap and place another piece of wrap on top. Pat out into a 5-inch circle. Remove the top piece of plastic and put 3 tablespoons of the pulled chicken onto the center of the circle, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Using the plastic wrap, fold the dough over to enclose the filling and form a semi-circle. Press the edges together. Using the rim of a small saucer, trim off the edge of the empanada. Repeat to make the rest.
• Put about 1/2-inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Dip the end of a wooden spoon into the oil: when bubbles form around it the oil is hot enough for frying. Fry the empanadas, a few at a time, until they are golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
• Note: Mozzarella cheese and a mixture of diced pear and crumbled gorgonzola cheese also make great fillings for these empanadas.

GEORGE'S CRISP CRUSTED OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN BY JUDY- JUDE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Wash chicken pieces and pat dry, set aside.
• Beat egg and milk in a bowl.
• In another bowl, mix potato flakes and the rest of the spices and parmesan cheese.
• Melt butter in a shallow baking pan (13"x9"x2").
• Roll chicken first in egg mixture, then in the potato flake mixture.
• Next roll coated chicken pieces in the butter as you place them into the pan (skin side up).
• Bake at 400 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until juices from meat run clear when pierced with a fork.
• Note: If you use garlic powder just be sure to add 1 teaspoon of salt; Judy used seasoned salt per her dad's little crib note on the recipe. I often use more spices to make it taste a little like Kentucky Fried Chicken. This recipe was written up pretty much as I had received it from Judy. Enjoy!
