Homemade McChicken

M cChicken sandwich, spicy or regular, has always been a household favorite until McDonalds started adding crap to the recipe. I used to work at McDonalds when I was 16 years old, things have def changed from then to now. Season it how you wish, I just throw a bunch of spices in and call it good! Does not matter what you use.  You Will Need: Ground Chicken Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika  Breadcrumbs  Flour Egg Wash Mayo Buns Lettuce Tomato After you form patties, freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Once frozen, dip in flour, egg then bread crumbs and deep fry until golden brown and 165 degrees temp reached inside. 

Chicken Alfredo Pasta

Chicken alfredo is one of our favorite family dinners... this screams comfort food for my family. Kailee has been taking more of an interest in learning to bake and cook. She just loves the idea of being in the kitchen with her mom and I LOVE the idea of her helping me in the kitchen too.

You Will Need:
4 Cooked Chicken Breast
1 Box Noodles, cooked 
2 1/2 Cups Milk 
3 tbsp Minced Garlic
1/4 Cup Butter
4 tbsp Flour
1 Cup Shredded Parmesan 
1 Can Peas 
1 1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
Dried Parsley
Salt & Pepper, to taste
Start by boiling water for you noodles, once boiled add noodles until cooked throughly 
Melt butter in skillet
While melting butter, add your garlic (I like extra garlic, but you can add or take out whatever amount you wish)
Add flour and allow to cook for 1 minute to get rid of the "floury" taste
Add milk and bring to a boil, watching and stirring often (I salt and pepper at this stage and end)
Add cheese
Taste. If you need more salt/pepper add it
Nice and thick sauce.. 
Add parsley
Whisk together (keep it cooking)
Add noodles and stir well (this should still be cooking)
Cut up chicken (I am using left over chicken)
Add chicken to the sauce, and peas
This was so good, you can take out the peas if you do not want them and added cherry tomatoes or just leave it as is. ENJOY!
