These 2 recipes go so well together that I had to post them at the same time...kinda like peas & carrots!
HONEY-BAKED CHICKEN
3 lb chicken, cut up OR any combination of legs/thighs/breasts/wings totalling 3-4 lbs *** 2 TBSP butter melted *** 1/3 cup honey *** 2 TBSP prepared mustard *** 1 tsp salt *** 1/2 tsp curry powder
Place chicken skin side up in a 9 x 13 pan. Combine rest of ingredients and pour over chicken. Bake for 1-1/4 hours in 350 degree oven, basting every 15 minutes. Skin will get dark, but don't worry...it'll taste wonderful!
As soon as chicken is in oven, prepare...
RICE CASSEROLE
1/4 cup butter *** 1 cup chopped onion *** 1 clove garlic, minced *** 1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, quatered *** 1/8 tsp thyme *** 1 cup raw white or brown rice *** 1 cup peeled, thin sliced carrots *** 2 cups chicken broth *** 1 tsp salt *** 1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese *** 2 cups zucchini, coarsed chopped
Saute onions & garlic in butter till tender, then add mushrooms & thyme...cook 2 minutes. Add rice, carrots, broth, salt and bring to a boil, then pout into casserole dish & cover. Bake in same 350 oven as chick for 30 minutes, then remove & stir in cheese & zucchini. Cover and return to oven for another 30 minutes.
**I love to take some of the pan juices from the chicken and drizzle them on the rice...OUTSTANDING!!!
P.S. - i didn't have any pictures of the dishes, so i posted a pic of my scooter...NICE!!!
