Japanese Eats

We had a great time with a fun loving, jovial and witty friend who visited us from the United States after a long time We being pure vegetarians served him only pure vegetarian stuff for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In short, we made him eat everything vegetarian other than grass! We choose to dine at a famous Chinese restaurant when he suddenly got a craving for Oriental cuisine one day. There again, we ordered vegetarian food and our dear friend wanted to eat chicken.

He ordered something he liked from the menu which we did not know anything about. When it arrived he ate it with excitement, but that may have been because he had onlyhad veggie dishes for a while. Then he ordered one more plate and polished it off in no time! Having gone to the manager to try and ask for the recipe, he was promptly denied, as the recipe was a trade secret. Then, after much coaxing, cajoling and promise of confidentiality, our guest elicited his asian chicken recipe. We vociferously warned him to try his recipe after he went back to United States!

For a painless, no hassle meal, crockpot chicken recipes are definitely the way to go. Wake up in the morning, (brush your teeth first nobody likes stinky breath) place the desired seasonings and vegetables in the crockpot, add some chicken stock and a quartered chicken, and place the crockpot on the low setting. Let the slow cooking magic of the crockpot take over. By the time you return home from work, a glorious smell will be permeating through the entire house. After working hard all day and coming home exhausted and hungry, dinner will be quick and easy if you use a crockpot chicken recipe.

Guaranteed, the chicken inside of the pot will not be dry. It will be so soft and moist, that it will be quite literally falling off of the bones. With a larger crockpot, a family can eat off this no hassle meal for days. Crockpot chicken recipes are a great option for any family. It wasn’t until I went to California from my hometown of New York City for the first time that I had a chance to taste Mexican food. That was when I was in my mid-20s. Authentic rice and bean dishes, burritos, and tacos are some of the dishes that I slowly feel in love with.

I knew that I wanted to learn to make all of this wonderful Mexican food when I returned home. The only issue I have with the food was the fact that most was made with pork or beef and I don’t really like either. So in addition to collecting recipes for rice and bean dishes, I set out to find at least one mexican recipe that I could learn to prepared in the traditional way once I returned to the big city. It was easier than I thought, since almost any recipe that is made with pork or beef can be made with chicken or even with vegetables.

I have now been making Mexican dishes for many years, and my absolute favorite is chicken enchiladas with a jalapen sause that is very creamy. Its wonderful, and whenever I serve it to family and friend, they always want the recipe. So if you should ever find yourself at my house for dinner, you can be assured that this recipe is on the menu!
