From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...This is an adaption of a recipe that has been on the internet for over a decade. I can't find the source of the original recipe, so I'll have to save my thanks to its creator for a later date. I've gone ahead and altered the recipe to feed a family of two and in the process have found yet another way to use those huge pterodactyl breasts that are sold in supermarkets today. Our supper tonight was a single breast that weighed 1-1/2 pounds. I normally save these huge breasts for soups, stews and stir fries, but I knew this adapted recipe was a perfect way to use one the three huge breasts in my sale package. I honestly don't know how a chicken this size can move, much less fly, but I'll just have to assume that nature somehow finds a way. Breasts are not the most flavorful part of the chicken, so one of my cautions to those of you who follow in my stead, is to be sure and liberally season the meat with salt and pepper before you cook it. I season my chicken before I tenderize it, and I've found that using a jaccard helps to season the interior of the meat as well. I, by the way, routinely use a jaccard to tenderize chicken breasts and I think it works wonders. I've also doubled the amount of sauce I make to serve with the breasts for two. With the understanding that tastes differ from one person to the next, I thought the most popular version of this recipe produced a dry and under-seasoned chicken. That was easy enough to take care of and the recipe below reflects the changes I've made. You might want to make changes of your own. I like this recipe. I wouldn't serve it to guests but I think it makes a great family meal. I served our chicken tonight with oven roast potatoes, but the chicken is also wonderful when served in a Cobb or Caesar salad. I do hope you'll give this dish a try. Here is how my version of it is made. Sticky Garlic Chicken...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite inspired by cooking.com Ingredients: 4 large garlic cloves, minced 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon butter 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1/4 cup brown sugar 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts 1-1/2 teaspoons salt 1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper Directions: 1) Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking dish or cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray or lightly brush with oil. 2) In small sauté pan, sauté garlic and pepper flakes in oil and butter until garlic is tender. 3) Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar and soy sauce. 4) Salt and pepper chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Work salt and pepper into breasts using a jaccard. Sprinkle with reserved salt and pepper and place in prepared pan. Spoon brown sugar sauce over chicken and transfer to a rack in upper third of oven. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees. Remove from oven, transfer to a carving board and tent with foil. Let sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, pour pan juices into a skillet and boil until syrupy bubbles form. Place sliced chicken on a serving platter and pour sauce over all. Serve immediately. Yield: 2to 3 servings. Cook's Note: Exact cooking time will depend on thickness of chicken breasts.

This impressive roast comes together quickly with a no-cook stuffing, then braises gently in the oven, becoming meltingly tender. The best part? The tomatoes in the baking dish and juices from the meat cook down into an extra-savory sauce for a bowl of pasta to serve on the side.

This looks like it should be horribly difficult, but it's really simple. If you are a beginner cook and REALLY want to impress people, this is the recipe for you. I use fresh garlic and garlic powder - feel free to cut back on either. We actually prefer this made with surimi (fake crab meat) rather than fresh crab, but either is fine. Make sure the crab is picked over for shells. Feel free to toss in some scallops too - just saute them for a few minutes in some butter first. Substitute 1 box of chopped broccoli, defrosted, for the spinach, if desired, or omit entirely.

I love it when a simple dish is fancy enough to serve to company. I also love it when that dish is remarkably delicious, and can be changed up to suit the season. This stuffed chicken recipe could not be easier, and yet, look how beautiful it is. Can you imagine how special your guests are going to feel when you serve them this lovely main dish? I made this earlier in the season, and used white asparagus, but it can be served any time of the year, using green. I also suspect that the asparagus can be swapped out for spinach or broccoli. As I always say, don't be afraid to change up a recipe to suit your own tastes. Simple enough for everyday, fancy enough for company, this is a recipe you're going to want to try. Asparagus-Stuffed Chicken 3 large chicken breasts Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest Sliced mushrooms 9 to 12 stalks Melissa’s white asparagus, trimmed 2 to 3 scallions, chopped 3 slices provolone cheese 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon paprika 1 tablespoon olive oil Packet of Melissa’s Hollandaise (for garnish), optional Preheat oven to 425°F. Slice the chicken breast in half lengthwise, but not all of the way through so as to leave one side intact creating a pocket to stuff full of goodies. Season the inside of the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of lemon zest. Lay the provolone cheese, sliced of mushroom, and 3 to 4 (don't crowd!) stalks of either white or green asparagus in the center of each chicken breast. Sprinkle chopped scallions over all. Fold over, enclosing the filling. (You can use toothpicks to secure, if need be.) Season the outside of the chicken breast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil, swirling to coat. Cook the chicken 3 to 5 minutes per side for a total of 6 to 10 minutes. Cover the skillet with foil and place into the preheated oven. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 155°F. Remove the skillet from the oven and allow to stand, covered, for 5 to 10 minutes. Drizzle with Hollandaise, if desired. Serve.
