Hawaiian Chicken Patties



Remember those Tyson Chicken Patties I raved about a while ago? Well, here is another reason why I love them! I am always trying to find new ways to use them and this time my idea turned into one delish entree if I may say so myself! Here it is:

Hawaiian Chicken Patties
by: Lindsey Mosbarger

What you need:
Tyson brand frozen chicken patties
Canned pineapple rings
Teriyaki Sauce
Slices of Swiss cheese

Cook how ever many chicken patties you need according to the directions on the package. You may want to take them out of the oven about 3 minutes early. After removing from the oven brush on a generous amount of Teriyaki sauce to the top of each chicken patty, place a pineapple ring on top of each patty (you can brush on a little more Teriyaki sauce if you want, I did) and then lay a slice of swiss cheese over the pineapple ring and place back in the oven just long enough to melt the cheese. About 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately!

Helpful Hints:
*You can use store bought Teriyaki sauce or easily make your own. See recipe above for homemade Teriyaki Sauce.
*These would be good on a bun if you wanted to make it into a chicken sandwich
*Great served with a side of brown rice

Enjoy!

Buffalo Chicken Pizza


WARNING: Spicy! May cause your nose to run and make your eyes water. If you like a little kick of flavor every now and again you will lOvE this pizza! It is quick and easy to make and full of flavor.
Buffalo Chicken Pizza:
by Lindsey

What you need:
Pizza crust of your choice
1 bottle of Blue Cheese Salad dressing
1 bottle of wing sauce
3-4 chicken breasts cooked and shredded
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare your pizza crust according to directions. Spread Blue Cheese dressing over the pizza crust as you would pizza sauce. Mix cooked and shredded chicken with wing sauce. You want just enough sauce to coat the chicken unless you really like things spicy then add more. Next, spread the chicken over the pizza crust and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese bubbles approximately 10-15 min.

Helpful Hints
*I cooked my chicken in the crock pot and then shredded it. You can cook the chicken however you normally do and then cube it instead of shredding it if you prefer.
*Feel free to add any other toppings. I am still debating whether or not to add anything next time. I am thinking diced tomatoes and maybe some green/red bell peppers might be good.
*If you aren't a fan of Blue Cheese you could substitute Ranch dressing.

Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas

These enchiladas are yUmMy! They have a sweet tangy flavor that messes with your taste buds in the most succulent way. Enjoy....
Honey Lime Chicken Enchiladas
from Debbie

6 tablespoons honey
5 tablespoons lime juice (1 large lime)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 pound chicken, cooked and shredded
8-10 flour tortillas
1 pound monterey jack cheese, shredded
16 0z green enchilada sauce
1 cup heavy cream (whipping cream)

Mix the first four ingredients and toss with shredded chicken. Let it marinate for at least 1/2 hour. Pour about 1/2 cup enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13" baking pan. Fill tortillas with chicken and shredded cheese. Make sure to save some cheese to sprinkle on top. Mix remaining enchilada sauce with the cream. If you have any marinade or chicken left you can also add it to the sauce. Pour sauce on top of enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 min, until brown and crispy on top.


Helpful Hints:
* I cooked the chicken in my crock pot (just put chicken and 1/2 cup of water in) for about about 6 hours the day before, shredded it and mix it with the marinade and let it sit in the fridge overnight.
*Serve with rice or a side of beans (black beans would be really good)
* this dish can be made and frozen! Perfect if you are trying to prepare meals to have on hand. If you freeze: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake enchiladas COVERED (without thawing first) for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 30 minutes longer, until brown and crispy on top.

Coconut Chicken


If you LOVE coconut this recipe is for you!

Baked Coconut Chicken

Preheat Oven to 350F
1/4 cup melted butter
Chicken breasts/tenders
1/2 cup flaked unsweetened coconut
1/4 cup bread crumbs

Brush the chicken with melted butter. In a shallow bowl, stir together the coconut and bread crumbs. Roll the chicken in the coconut mixture. Place the chicken in a baking pan. Drizzle any remaining butter over the chicken and sprinkle with any remaining coconut mixture. Bake for about 1 hour or until chicken is no longer pink inside.

Helpful Hints~
  • Serve with brown rice
  • Delish served with a side of Sweet n Sour sauce for dipping.


Bacon Swiss Chicken

First off, I know this picture is doesn't really make this dish look very appetizing but I promise it is good!

Bacon Swiss Chicken
By Lindsey
*Tyson brand chicken breast patties
*Bacon
*Swiss cheese
*Dijon Mustard for dipping
Cook bacon as you always do. Bake the chicken patties as instructed. Take a strip of bacon and break it in half and place on top of each chicken patty and top with a slice of cheese. Place patties back in the oven long enough for cheese to melt. Remove from the oven and serve!

Helpful Hints:
* feel free to use any type of cheese. I have also made this with grated mozzarella and it was just as good!
* you can eat it as is or you can serve with dipping sauce. We like it with Dijon mustard. If you like hot/spicy things try it with buffalo wing sauce. When using the buffalo sauce you can serve on the side for dipping or you can brush some on top of the chicken patty before placing bacon and cheese. Tyson also makes a spicy chicken breast patty that you can buy instead of the plain chicken.

Crispy Bacon Parmesan Ranch Chicken

Is that title long enough for you? Well, let's kick this thing off with a simple yet delish recipe! This one is PERFECT....it is everything it's title says it is :) Here you go:
Crispy Bacon Parmesan Ranch Chicken
by Angel Shannon
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (tenders if you prefer)
  • 1 (16 oz) bottle Peppercorn Ranch dressing
  • 1 cup Italian Bread Crumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
  • ½ lb. bacon, fried crispy and crumbled
Pour dressing into shallow pan or pie plate; set aside. In a medium bowl mix bread crumbs, cheese and bacon together. Dip cleaned and dried chicken into dressing then coat with bread crumb mixture. Place prepared chicken in sprayed or lined 9x13-in pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until juices run clear. Serve with buttery herb angel hair pasta! This recipe doubles easily.

I saw this recipe on one of my local morning shows, Good Things Utah. I knew immediately I needed to try it! It is DeLiSh and easy peasy. I think this would be a perfect dish to impress guests with because it is SOOO good and easy to prepare!

Helpful Hints:
* I already had Plain Bread Crumbs so I used those instead of Italian and just used a pinch of Tony Chachere's seasoning.
* I also used the Walmart Brand Italian Cheese blend instead of just using grated Parmesan Cheese to add some flavor to my Plain Bread Crumbs
* When placing chicken in your pan be sure to space them just enough so they are not touching. When you are ready to serve if they are touching the breading will get pulled off.
* I served the chicken with the Pasta Roni Angel Hair Pasta with Herbs but I also think it would be good over rice.

Enjoy!
