Chicken with Duck Sauce

The simple recipe that has everyone going for seconds.

FacebookLinkedInXPrintFriendlyShare
Food 4 Thought
The blessing we make after washing our hands before eating bread is “Blessed are you God, Master of the universe, who sanctified us with mitzvot, and commanded us with the lifting up our hands.” What an unusual blessing. Why doesn’t the blessing talk about washing our hands, why lifting them up? The answer is because we are about to eat, and the hands are the tools we are going to use to break bread and eat the food. The lifting up of the hands before the meal begins is how we become aware of the spiritual nature of the meal. Before any food passes our lips we are already becoming mindful of the food we are about to ingest.  Learn more about eating mindfully Jewish.

Even though I make many "gourmet" recipes, this simple one is the biggest hit with guests helping themselves to seconds and calling during the week for the recipe!

Could we please have some recipes that do not rely heavily on processed foods, jars of this or that (which may not be available to all readers), but actually on ingredients, like flour, chicken, spice, etc? Recipe Tin Eats, while not kosher, is a great example of how someone can provide simple recipes, from scratch, for a much lower cost than buying prepared ingredients like Duck Sauce.
