CRISPY KETCHUP-MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x9 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• In a shallow bowl, mix together the ketchup and mustard. Place the cereal in a separate bowl. Dip chicken breasts in the ketchup mixture, then into the cereal until heavily coated. Place into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake uncovered for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should be at 170 degrees F (75 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer.

KETCHUP CHICKEN

Steps:

• Chop the chicken into small (1") chunks.
• Dust with flour.
• Heat 2 tbsp.
• oil in a large skillet; when very hot, add chicken chunks.
• You may have to do this in several batches.
• Sprinkle S& P on the chicken, and set it aside.
• After chicken is done, add remaining oil; when that is hot, add garlic and cayenne.
• Saute this mixture for two minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the ketchup to the garlic/cayenne mixture; bring it to a boil, and simmer for about five minutes.
• Return chicken to the pan and mix to cover the chicken with the sauce.
• Serve over white rice.

HOMEMADE KETCHUP

Steps:

• Put the onions and celery into a food processor and whizz until finely chopped. Heat the oil in a very large saucepan, add the onions and celery, cover, then soften over a low heat for 5 mins. Add the garlic, cook 5 mins more, then tip in the spices and cook for 1 min.
• Now stir in all remaining ingredients and bring to the boil. Keep on a bubbling simmer, uncovered, for 1 hr until the tomatoes are squashy and the liquid has reduced by several inches. Discard the cinnamon stick.
• Whizz the mix with a stick blender until smooth, then sieve into a bowl. The ketchup will thicken a little when it cools, but if yours seems very runny (this will depend on the juiciness of your tomatoes), put it back on the heat and cook a little longer, stirring often, until reduced. Keep the ketchup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 months, or freeze in batches. If you like, keep in sterilised bottles or jars for up to 6 months - see tip, below.

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH KETCHUP

Steps:

• Toss chicken with flour so that it is lightly dusted. Put 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to high. When oil smokes, add chicken in one layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• When chicken browns on one side, toss it and cook until just about done: smaller pieces will take 5 minutes total, larger pieces about 10. Remove to a plate. Turn off heat and let pan cool for a moment.
• Add remaining oil to pan and turn heat to medium high. Add garlic and cayenne pepper and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add ketchup and stir; cook until ketchup bubbles, then darkens slightly. Return chicken to pan and stir to coat with sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning, then serve.
