If you are anything like me you are always up for new recipes to add to your "same old" ones you make every week. Here are a couple I just discovered... Hope you enjoy!
Sweet and Sour Chicken
(This one reminds us of Bluebird Chicken... for those of you that lived in Logan)
Skinless, boneless chx
1 egg, beaten
cornstarch
oil
Sauce:
3/4 c. sugar
4 Tbsp. Ketchup
1/2 c. vinegar
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Dip chicken in egg and cornstarch. Fry in oil until brown. Put chicken in baking dish and pour sauce over it. Bake uncovered for 1 hour at 325 degrees, turning chicken every 15 minutes.
We served this over rice.

I tasted this one at the grocery store as a sample so of course it was good. I haven't tried it at home yet but it sounds easy and good.
Chicken and Black Bean Skillet
1 onion
1 Tbsp. butter
1 1/4 c. chicken broth
1 c. salsa
1 c. uncooked rice
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 can black beans, rinsed
3/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese
Saute onion in butter. Add broth and salsa and bring to a boil. Stir in rice and garlic powder. Place chicken over rice, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn chicken and cook for 10 -15 minutes more.
Remove from heat, add drained black beans, sprinkle cheese over top, cover and l et stand for 5 minutes.
Tip: Flatten chicken and cut into strip before cooking.
P.S. I'm thinking you could add kidney beans, corn, or diced tomatoes to this as well.

Thanks for the recipes! I loved the blue bird chicken so I can't wait to try it! Plus it is always nice to have new recipes to try!
I make a chicken dish like that Sweet and Sour Chicken all the time and I LOVE it! It's so good--like homemade Chinese. But it is a little time intensive--browning it all and then cooking for an hour. But well worth it. I haven't had Bluebird Chicken--I'll have to try it when we get home!
That chicken recipe sounds divine. Can't wait to try it out!
