I was gifted a package of 1 pound of ground chicken . Well, I had no idea
what to do with it (it's something I've never purchased) so I started
Googling for ideas. One idea kind of stuck out, but there wasn't a recipe
for it therefore I was hoping you folks could nudge me along.

Ground chicken stuffed peppers. (I was planning on using bells, poblanos, &
serranos.) Mexican-style seasonings with Monterey Jack cheese on top.
Fried eggplant on the side. (Obviously this is for TFM® and not me; I don't
do peppers or eggplant.)

I've got plenty of Mexican herbs and seasonings and I was going to use
Vidalia onions and fresh garlic when I cook the chicken. I think the
filling needs more "oomph", though. Should I make a salsa to mix with the
chicken when I stuff the peppers for baking or is that overkill on peppers?

TFM® is low-carbing it, so a Spanish rice filling is out (which would sound
perfect to me, but....).

What can I add to the chicken to add moisture and flavor for the filling of
the pepper? I'm thinking salsa, but that may just be a little too wet. Any
suggestions?

That's a recipe to definitely save and try for future use. Thanks, Jay.

Good luck. I started a thread here last week about ground turkey and
all anyone said pretty much was "Eewww" and "yuck".

There's ground turkey (dark meat) and there's ground turkey breast.

The ground turkey was juicy and tender and delicious while the ground
turkey breast cooked up dry as a bone with cartilage (or bone?) bits
throughout.

I don't know if the same characteristics hold true for ground chicken.

Chopped mushrooms have worked for me when low carbing.
And I agree with the onions and garlic.

Ground chicken tends to be/can be very "watery" when cooked. I would
suggest you fry/sauté the chicken first to dry it out I would also sauté the
onions and peppers. Then cool the chicken and add an egg as a binder. If he
is low carbing it there are some carbs allowed ergo a small amount of filler
is allowed. 1 piece of white bread is only 10 to 12 carbs. Use the salsa as
a moistener for the filler.

We do not allow plain white bread into this house. Good sourdough, yes.
Wonder bread, no.

Kili,

Do you have your heart set on stuffing peppers? If not, think steamed
dumplings.

Dumplings won't work for a "low carber".

Hi Kili! Since you asked, here's several interesting ones and I'll add

Killi- you can use all chicken for this but if you have some ground pork,
mix it in. Especially if that chicken is white breast.

Title: Chicken and Chinese Chive Shu-Mei
Categories: Chinese, Chicken, Appetizers, Groundmeat
Yield: 24 Servings

Filling:
1 lb Ground chicken
1/2 c Finely chopped Chinese
-garlic chives
1 Clove garlic, crushed
1 tb Dry sherry
1 tb Light soy sauce
1/2 ts Freshly grated ginger
1/2 ts MSG (opt)
1 pn Sugar
1 1/2 ts Sesame oil
1 tb Cornstarch
1 ts Salt
1/2 ts Ground white pepper
Assembly:
Additional whole chives
24 Shu-mei wrappers (Gyoza
-skins)

Mix all filling ingredients together. Whip by hand until the mixture
holds together very well. Place about 3/4 T filling in the center of
each wrapper and bring up the corners so that you have a little
"money bag." Leave the top open so that you can see some of the meat.
Blanch the whole chives in very hot tap water just for a moment. Tie
one chive around the neck of each dumpling so that it looks like it
is wearing a little green belt. Steam in an oiled bamboo steamer for
15 minutes, on high heat. From The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Three Ancient

MMMMM

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05

Title: Chicken and Red Bell Pepper Bolognese
Categories: Pasta, Low-fat, Sauces, Chicken
Yield: 4 Servings

1 tb Olive oil
1 sm Onion, chopped fine
1 md Garlic clove, chopped fine
1/2 lb Ground chicken breast
1/2 c Chardonnay or other dry
- white wine
1 cn Salt-free whole tomatoes
- (16-ounce)
1 tb Double-concentrate tomato
- paste
1 tb Fresh basil leaves, finely
- shredded
1 tb Fresh Italian parsley,
- finely chopped
2 ts Sugar
1 ts Fresh rosemary leaves,
- finely chopped
2 md Red bell peppers, roasted,
-peeled, stemmed, seeded,
-and coarsely chopped,
-juices saved
Cooked pasta of your choice

In a large saucepan or skillet, heat the olive oil with the onion and
garlic over moderate heat. When they sizzle, add the chicken and
saute it, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon,
until it begins to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.

Add the wine and stir and scrape well to deglaze the pan. Add the
tomatoes, breaking them up with your hands, and stir in the remaining
ingredients.

Simmer the sauce until thick but still slightly liquid, 20 to 25
minutes. Spoon over cooked pasta -- spaghetti, fettuccine or
medium-sized tubles, shells or other shapes are recommended.

Directions for roasting bell peppers:
~------------------------------------ Place the peppers in a
foil-lined baking sheet in a 500 degree oven. Roast until their skins
are evenly blistered and browned, about 25 minutes, turning them 2 or
3 times so they roast evenly. Remove them from the oven and cover
them with a kitchen towel.

When the peppers are cool enough to handle, pull out their stems,
peel away their blackened skins; open the peppers up; and remove
their seeds, using a teaspoon to pick up any stray ones.

Take care not to lose any of the peppers' juices, which are also very
flavorful. You might want to pour them through a fine mesh strainer to
remove any seeds or bits of skin.

Killi, this one is good but you may find it is a bit too much dressing.
Judge
it yourself as you add it. Can make ahead (just done add the dressing til
serving it). I prefer 1 cup grated montery jack with jalapenos in this.

Killi, this is bland unless you add more black pepper and dry mustard. I
use 1
TS each then add a little choluloa hot pepper sauce to the mix.

Killi, it looks like this one would suit both of you but you'd have it
over
pasta and he'd have it over something else like perhaps bean sprouts? I
add
some cholula brand hot sauce to the yougurt to make it 'kick'.

Title: Coconut Coriander Soup with Vermicelli and Turkey (Mf)
Categories: Chicken, Seafood-pd
Yield: 1 Servings

2 tb Vegetable oil
1 lb Ground chicken or turkey
2 Garlic cloves; minced
Quartersize slice fresh
-ginger, minced
2 c Water
4 c Chicken or vegetable broth;
-preferably lowsalt
1/4 lb Vermicelli; capellini or
-very fine egg noodles,
-broken into 2inch lengths
2 Limes
2 Scallions
1/2 c Packed washed fresh
-coriander leaves
7 oz Unsweetened coconut milk;
-(up to 8)
1/2 ts Dried pepper flakes
Salt

Heat the vegetable oil. Add the ground chicken and begin to saute,
mashing the chicken with the side of a wooden spoon, continuously
moving it and mashing it so that it crumbles. After 3 minutes, add
the garlic and ginger and cook for about a minute or until the
moisture has evaporated and the chicken begins to dry out.

Add the water and chicken broth and bring the liquid to a boil. Add 1
teaspoon of salt and the vermicelli. Cover the pan and cook until the
pasta is tender, about 5 minutes.

While this is cooking, juice the limes, slice the scallions into
1/4inch rounds, and roughly chop the coriander. When the vermicelli
is tender, remove the saucepan from the heat, stir in the lime juice
and coconut milk, and season to taste with salt and dried pepper
flakes.

Kili, just skip the pasta. Works fine without. I often add brocolli
stems,
chopped small to this.

Title: Wind in the Pines, Chicken Loaf
Categories: Xxcarol, Japan, Chicken, Groundmeat
Yield: 4 Servings

3/4 lb Ground chicken
2 ea Eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 sl Ginger, fresh, 1/2 inch
2 tb Red miso
2 ts Sake
2 ts Dark soy sauce
2 tb Sugar
2 ts Flour
1 tb White poppy seeds

Blend the chicken until you have a paste, or grind it again. Add all
but the poppy seeds and mix well.

Grease a baking pan and line with foil or bakers paper and spread the
mix in. Top with the poppy seeds and place in a pan of water then
bake at 350F for about 30 mins. When set, remove and lift out the
'cake' and slice into pretty fan shaped pieces. Serve warm.

As I didnt have white poppy seeds, I used Sesame seeds mixed with
black poppy and liked the effect.

From the Sasebo Japan kitchen of: xxcarol, 26DEC2003

Killi, grin, one of my own adapted slighty for the American cookery.
For the sake, you can use dry sherry in this one or omit. Yes, I have
white poppy seeds now, just didnt when I MM'ed it.

Okay, I was thinking I'd cook it down to reduce moisture. I just wanted
another opinion. Again, I've never even thought of ground chicken before,
never used it, so I have no idea what to expect.

Since you didn't grind it yourself you have no idea what to expect...
grinding is what meat markets do with maggoty chicken... you do
realize that maggots are chicken flesh. colored. Preground mystery
poultry is far, far scarier than any other preground mystery meat.

I'm not worried about it, Sheldon. It was free, I'm going to use it. I'm
not eating it, anyway. I just want to try to make it as tasty as possible.

It tends to cook up a bit dryer IME. About like ground turkey, so adding
moisture in the form of veggies is the right idea. :-)

Just like rat poison.

For a couple of years, my youngest son would not eat red meat, but he
would eat chicken. I used ground chicken to make meat balls. They
tasted pretty good and they were very tender.

Best of luck with your kitchen experiment.

Sorry if this sounds mean, but if my child wouldn't eat what I'd prepared,
he'd go hungry.
It was that way when I was growing up, it was that way when my Mother was
growing up.

Yes, I have a son. He's almost 23 years old. He's spent some time with me
in the kitchen and at the BBQ pit.

The only thing I've ever seen him turn his nose up at was hot mustard at a
Chinese restaurant. I told him it was really good and he put WAY too much
on his eggroll.
It was promptly spit back out into a napkin. When he could breath again, he
called me names generally reserved for sailors and criminals.

Kids, you gotta love 'em.

We have been buying ground turkey for turkey burgers for years
now.....well, maybe six or seven. The next thing that comes to
mind is White Chili!!


@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

White Chili

soups

1 lb white beans, soaked
6 cup chicken stock
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon oil
8 oz green chilies, chopped
2 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
4 cup chicken breast, cooked
3 cup Monterey jack, grated

Combine beans, chicken broth, garlic and half the onions in a large
stock
pot and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until beans are
very
soft, about 3 hours. Add more chicken stock if necessary.

In a skillet, saute remaining onions in oil over high heat until
tender
about 3 minutes. Add chilies, cumin, oregano, cloves and cayenne; mix
thoroughly. Add to bean mixture. Add chicken and continue to simmer 1
hour

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

White Chili

soups

3 split chicken breasts (about 1/2 lb; )
3 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
3 centiliter garlic, crushed
1 medium red or yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 cans great northern,
1 navy or cannellini beans
1 small can chopped green chilies
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin, ground
1 cilantro
1 Monterey jack cheese, shred

This just isn't the same unless you boil the split breasts and use the
broth which results. Skin the chicken breasts, but do not bone. Boil
the
split breasts in 3-4 cups of water for 40 minutes or until cooked
through.
Remove the breasts to a bowl to cool. Continue boiling the broth until
reduced to about 2 cups. Set aside.

Bone and chop the cooked, cooled chicken into bite-size pieces. Set
aside.
In a 3 quart saucepan, saute onion, red pepper and garlic in the olive
oil
until onion is translucent. Add chicken broth, beans (1 can drained, 1
can
pureed), diced chilies and pre-cooked chicken. Stir in chili powder,
cumin
and oregano. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for at least an
hour.
Stir often to make sure the beans are not sticking. Adjust seasoning
and
serve, garnished with a a sprig of cilantro and a little Monterey Jack
cheese shredded on top.

Yield: 6 servings
