Another Success
Last weekend's Goat Cheese, Mushroom and Eggplant Pastry was very tasty, but the pork was edible. But the cooking urge was still strong last night, so decided to try a new recipe to cook while I was at work today. I found a recipe for sweet potatoes and chicken.. and altered it. As you do. Blogging now, because it was nommy enough that I will make again.
Orange Chicken (No actual oranges were used in this recipe).
5 small sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 carrots, sliced into 2 inch lengths
1 onion worth of dehydrated onions*
Place in bottom of crock.
2 leg quarters, split into leg and thigh**
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp ginger
1/8 cayenne pepper
Mix spices and coat chicken with them. Place chicken into crock over vegetables.
3 small peaches, cut up
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp chicken stock
Place peaches over chicken, smooshing down so juice is released. Pour other liquids over mess. Cook on low for 10 hours (8 probably would have worked).
*You might be a cheapskate if you use an inherited dehydrated onions just because you have a jug of them
**Chicken legs are my favorite part of the bird, thighs are Lawnchair's, so we tend to buy bags of frozen leg quarters. Not quite to Jack Sprat levels, but it a couple has to find their compromises.
