Sure, once in a while, why not? Doesn't it come in different flavors like chicken, pork, etc? Maybe now I'm thinking of Shake n Bake, but I know that's not Stove Top. nancy |

It was not a very big bird, about 3 1/2 pounds. I washed it out, dabbed it try, sprinkled some sea salt and pepper inside, tossed in a piece of lemon and two small closes of garlic. I rubbed the outside with olive oil and sprinkled on more sea salt and pepper, put it on a rack and into the oven. There was not a lot of drippings, but I added some flour and stirred it around to sop up all the fat, added some chicken broth and heated it up. It turned out to be a darned fine gravy. The chicken ski was nice and crispy and the meat was tender, juicy and tasty. I have to wonder sometimes about the economy and effort involved in chicken. Most of the grocery stores around here sell small roasted chickens for $7-8. We usually get two meals out of a small chicken, and can do the same with these pre-cooked birds. You are paying that much for a chicken anyway, so it's almost like the cooking service is free. I just have to be careful to get on right out of the oven. Either that or just let it cool right down and use the cold chicken. IMO, that is every bit as good as hot chicken, and much better than luke warm. |

You could probably create your own version of the "Stove Top Stuffing" for a quick side dish. If you can get the cubes, you would need only to add seasonings you like, butter, perhaps onion and celery, dried fruit, etc., all mixed together, then with boiling water or broth poured over to moisten. It needs to stand a bit before serving. Just a thought... Wayne |

Next you roast a chicken save time, effort, and energy... always roast two... one for company, another for later. There are myriad concoctions to be made with cold roast chicken, from sandwhich, soup, and salad to stir fried, etc. Next time douse chicken with fresh lemon and rub chicken inside and out with Penzeys Adobo and a little salt. |

Sounds delicious! I'll have to try that. I've often squeezed a bit of
orange juice over a chicken, or roasted some baby onions in the pan along with the bird. Next step is to use both at once. Melissa |

I once blinked and missed them :-( That's why I want them - to make some _real_ marmalade. I feel like it's my life's project at this point, it has been going on so long. As an individual, if I went to Spain I couldn't even bring them into this country because of US Dept. of Agriculture regulations on food imports. Dora |

>> Had company for dinner tonight and decided to do a roasted chicken.
Roast chicken! Yes! The original and most dependable comfort food! I came up with this 22 years ago, and I still keep coming back to it. Had it again tonight. Butterfly a fryer. Rub its skin with turmeric, sage, African red pepper, black pepper, and minced garlic. Pin an anaheim chili under the ends of the drumsticks; put a sweet potato beside it. Baste everything with olive oil. Roast at 375, basting regularly with olive oil. In some 75 minutes it'll be done. Add steamed broccoli to the sweet potato and pepper, and you'll be where you need to be. Cool, fruity red wine (try something from Ribero del Duero: northern Spain). mmmmmmmmmmmmm still works. Neil |

I was looking through different baskets of oranges trying to guess which would be best for zesting over the ice cream, and I came on two Sevilles in a basket of something else, so I grabbed them. The checkout woman recognized them because the screen said "seville" when she rang them up. I don't think they come all the time, and I don't even know where they came from. The store really tries hard to please everybody. I get everything I can from the Greenmarket, but I am really glad the store is there. That is where I got the wild boar mini-roast. It was a D'Artagnan import from Canada. I was looking for a way to use the insides of the oranges when I came on that. I know this isn't helpful. Maybe you could find them on the web? Otherwise move to NYC. If I had sevilles on a relaxed weekend I would be tempted to try Duck a l'orange. The acid would cut the fat without making it sweet.
