Friday’s show was great! We talked about some of the NFL free agent signings and NCAA basketball tournament possibilities. We also talked about why do athletes keep getting into legal trouble. We had a great comment by a caller, Michelle, but you’ll have to listen to the replay to hear her comments. We also prepared 2 great recipes - Chicken Floren-teeny and Coconut Macaroons.
Chicken Floren-teeny
2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breast strips
Salt and pepper or your favorite seasonings to taste (I used McCormick Montreal Chicken and Mrs. Dash seasonings)
1 - 15 oz. container ricotta cheese
1 – 10 oz. package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 clove garlic, minced
2 eggs, beaten
1 8-oz. package shredded mozzarella cheese
Mixing bowl
Glass baking dish
Pam cooking spray
Foil paper
Toothpicks
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cover baking dish with foil paper (optional) and spray with the Pam cooking spray.
2. Season the chicken strips with salt and pepper (or your favorite seasonings) to taste. Set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, spinach, garlic, eggs and 6oz (3/4) of the cheese. Mix well.
4. Lay each strip flat on a plate and spread the mixture lightly on top. Starting from the smallest end, carefully roll each strip with the filling until you reach the wide end.
5. Secure with a toothpick (if necessary) and place stuffed strips in the baking dish.
6. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 to 60 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
Coconut Macaroons
1 – 14 oz. package sweetened flaked coconut
1 – 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
Mixing bowl
Parchment paper
Baking sheet
Directions1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl combine coconut, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and almond extracts and mix well.
2. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the macaroons are light brown around edges.
3. Drizzle with chocolate and remove from the paper. Store at room temperature in an airtight container.
