The curry-citrus sauce is the perfect accent for the golden baked chicken.
Curried Honey Chicken
1/4 cup butter, melted 1/4 cup orange juice 1/4 cup honey 2 TBSP lemon juice 1 TBSP prepared mustard 1 to 2 tsp. curry powder 1 tsp. salt
6 bone-in chicken breast halves (8-oz. each) 1 tsp. cornstarch 1/3 cup cold water
In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; set aside 1/3 cup for basting. Dip chicken in remaining butter mixture; place in a well-greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 1 hour, basting occasionally with reserved butter mixture. Remove chicken and keep warm. In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir in the pan drippings. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Drizzle over chicken. YIELD: 6 servings. Recipe source: Taste of Home magazine, October/November, 2006, suubmitted by Joanna Burks of Marshfield, Missouri. Peg's Notes: I used boneless chicken breasts so you don't need to bake it quite as long...about 40-45 minutes or until juices run clear.

Batter Fried Chicken
1 c all purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder salt, pepper and nutmeg 1 large egg 1 1/4 c milk 1 chicken cut up for frying peanut or vegetable oil for frying
Sift the flour, baking powder, 1 tsp of salt, pepper and nutmeg into a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the egg until it is fluffy then beat in the milk. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the egg-milk mixture. Gradually whisk the flour into the liquid until it forms a smooth batter. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Wash the chicken and place it in a large mixing bowl.
Add a small handful of salt and enough cold water to cover the chicken completely. Toss until the salt is dissolved. Soak for 30 minutes, refrigerate.
Fill a deep fat fryer with enough oil to come halfway up the sides. Over medium high heat, bring the fat to 375 f. Meanwhile drain the chicken and pat it dry. Stir the batter. Add the chicken to the batter, coating it completely. Beginning with the dark meat lift the chicken out one piece at a time, letting the excess batter go back into the bowl. Put the battered pieces into the oil. Repeat until the pot is full but not crowded. Fry until well browned and well sealed, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium 325 f. Fry the chicken, turning only once, until it is cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes longer. Lift the chicken from the fat, let the fat drain from it completely. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Yogurt Marinated Chicken
1 Tbs oil 2 tsp ground cumin 2 tsp paprika 2 tsp coriander 1/4 cup diced onion 1/2 cup yogurt 2 Tbs lime juice 1/4 tsp salt 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Heat the oil in a small skillet and stir in the cumin, paprika, and coriander. Cook, stirring, for a minute or two, then let cool. In a small bowl mix together the diced onion, yogurt, lime juice, salt, and oil/spice mixture. Put the chicken into a container or a bag or whatever dish you want to use, then pour the marinade on and turn the chicken so it's evenly coated.
I would do this in the morning and let it sit in the frig all day marinating!
You could, of course, bake the chicken at 350 for 10 minutes or so or grill on the barbecue.

Healthy Chicken Stir Fry--Serves 4
3 chicken breast halves cut into one-inch cubes 3 cups Broccoli florets 2 small Zucchini chopped 1 red Pepper sliced into quarter inch strips 2 Tbl olive oil divided 3 Tbl low-salt soy sauce 1/2 cup water 2 Tbl cornstarch 4 green onions chopped, including some of the green part For this dish you can use a large wok or two large saute pans. I'm going to give the description for the saute pans. If you use a wok you can just add it all in. In a large, non-stick saute pan. Put in one Tbl of olive oil. Heat oil. Put in chicken only and saute until no longer pink inside. Stir often to keep chicken from sticking. In a second large, saute pan add other tablespoon of olive oil. Heat oil and then add Broccoli, and red Pepper. Saute on medium high for one minute. Add Zucchini and cook one more minute. One of the secrets to good, healthy Chinese food is to cook the veggies only until they still have a bit of a bite to them. Don't make them wilty or you'll just be eating mush. Add soy sauce to chicken and toss for a half a minute more on medium. Make sure pink is gone from center of chicken pieces. Now make your sauce. In a cup add water and cornstarch. Stir mixture to dissolve cornstarch. Now add liquid to the chicken. Turn heat back up and stir constantly until sauce turns to a glaze. It will become shiny and stick to chicken. Pour chicken, sauce, and all veggies in to a large bowl to mix. (If you are using a wok it should be large enough to hold all of this). When it"s mixed up, and sauce is now glazing veggies, you are ready to serve. Put stir-fry in a bowl and sprinkle with green onions. You're ready to eat. Optional: Many like rice with their Chinese food. I've been skipping the rice to cut down carbs, but this will taste great served on top of rice.

CHICKEN BREASTS IN WINE – GREAT! This is a keeper!
6 – 8 chicken tenders, boned and skinned 2/3 c. (10 2/3 Tbsp.) butter or margarine 1 1/2 to 2 lb. small white onions (can be canned) I used 1 med. diced 1 lb. small fresh mushrooms – I used I jar sliced 1 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 1/2 to 3/4 c. dry white wine - I used Madeira 1(12 1/2 oz.) can chicken broth 3 Thsp. cornstarch 1 c. heavy cream
Fry chicken in about half the butter or margarine, a few pieces at a time, until golden (about 5 minutes on each side). Heat remaining butter in large pan or Dutch oven. Sauté onions about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté an additional 5 minutes. Add chicken, salt, pepper, bay leaf; thyme, 1/2 cup Sauterne and chicken broth. Cover and simmer over low heat 20 minutes. (This much can be done a day ahead and refrigerated overnight. Reheat before proceeding.) In small bowl, make a smooth paste of cornstarch and remaining wine. Gradually add to chicken and simmer, stirring, for 15 minutes. Stir in heavy cream. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Do not allow to boil vigorously or cream will separate. Remove bay leaf. Serve over rice. Alternative: Use only about half the butter or margarine. Take out the chicken when brown. Sauté the onions and mushrooms in the same fat and then just add the chicken. This will save calories and even enhances the taste. (I did it this way.)

"Paprika lends gentle flavor with a lot of color to chicken and onion cooked in sour cream."
Sour Cream Chicken Paprika T & T
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 cup chopped onion 1 1/2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons paprika 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups chicken stock - I used 1 1/2 c. stock (broth) and 1/2 c. chardonnay wine 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1. You can leave breasts whole or cut them up, whatever your preference. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and pan-fry until cooked through and juices run clear, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
2. Using the same skillet, cook onion in butter until translucent but not brown, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season with paprika and salt. Pour chicken stock into the pan, and bring all to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer; mix flour with sour cream until smooth, then whisk into chicken stock. Place chicken in skillet; simmer until chicken is heated through and sauce has thickened.

Chicken with Tarragon Mustard Cream
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil 2 4 ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/2 cup low sodium chicken stock 2 ounces goat cheese 2 tsp coarse ground mustard 1/4 cup 2% milk 1/8 tsp dried tarragon
Preheat oven to 300°F.
Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken breasts and allow to cook for about 2 - 3 minutes, without turning. Then, turn and cook for 2 minutes. (The surface should be seared brown on both sides.)
Remove the chicken and place on a sheet of foil to catch any juices and put in the preheated oven.
Deglaze the pan with the chicken stock and allow the sauce to reduce by about half.
Remove from the heat and add the goat cheese. Whisk in the cheese with the pan off of the heat until the sauce is smooth.
With the pan still off of the heat, add the mustard, milk and tarragon. Stir until the sauce is smooth.
Reduce the heat to low-medium and place the pan back on the burner. As the sauce slowly reheats remove the chicken breasts from the oven and place in the sauce. Turn frequently as the sauce and chicken breasts heat through (they are ready when the internal temperature is 160°F).
