Chicken Marsala For You

There are so veal recipes that work great with boneless skinless chicken breasts, but Chicken Marsala is a personal favorite. Chicken Marsala presents the rich flavor of sauteed onions blended with the taste of two sweet wines. Whether it’s an intimate dinner for two or for four: I hope you enjoy chicken Marsala as much as I have.

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Flour

Salt and pepper

Olive oil

1 onion –sliced

2 cloves of garlic — crushed

1/4 cup Chablis

1/2 cup Marsala

Flatten the chicken breasts to 1/4″ thickness. Cover them with wax paper and beat them with a meat mallet. No mallet? Use a rolling pin. No rolling pin? A 750 ml wine bottle will do. Sprinkle both sides of each breast with flour, salt and pepper. Set aside.

Reasons For Using a Hot Air Popper

Why use a hot air popper

Popcorn is the best snack there is, period. It’s tasty, high in fibers and you can season it with everything from butter and salt to Parmesan. The introduction of the microwave has meant more for popcorn than for any other food, and most of us satisfy our popcorn cravings by just preparing a bag of Pop Secret. But microwave popcorn does have its downsides: it’s high in calories and relatively pricey.

Where microwave popcorn poppers usually use oil, hot air poppers allow completely oil-free use. As you would have guessed, these poppers use hot air to pop the kernels.

Some hot air poppers can throw out very hot kernels during the first phase, so you have to be careful. To avoid this, hold the popper at an angle for the first thirty seconds and set it down again when the first kernels have popped.
