Clay Baker Recipes - Fat-Free Chicken Dishes

Everybody knows that clay cooking pots already existed long before slow cookers came into existence. Since the use of clay pots avoid over-cooking while eliminating the need for added fats, baking chicken in a clay baker has been considered a good way to prepare a healthy, flavorful and fat-free chicken meal.

When clay bakers are soaked in water before placing into the oven, it allows the pot to produce moisture as it cooks sealing in nutrients in the food and preventing it from escaping; and even if you cook chicken without skin, it still would come out moist, tender, flavorful and perfectly browned. This makes clay bakers most ideal for braising as it provides fat-free moistness for vegetables, meat, chicken and fish.

Allow me to share two chicken recipes cooked in a clay baker with a special taste of baked lemon and peppers:

Roast Chicken and Lemon

Ingredients

• ¼ pound chicken, rinsed with giblets and neck removed
• 1 large red onion, sliced thickly
• 2 large potatoes, peeled and cut in chunks
• 3 carrots, cut in chunks
• 3 of cloves garlic, sliced thinly
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper (freshly ground black pepper is best)
• ½ lemon, sliced
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 4 sprigs of fresh thyme, minced or 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Directions

Immerse the clay baker in water for 20 minutes; drain and dry. Place onions in the bottom of the baker then arrange potatoes, carrots and garlic around sides. Sprinkle half each of the salt and pepper all over. Pat dry chicken inside and out then stuff cavity with lemon. Tie legs together with string and push wings under back. Place on top of onions in the baker with the breast side up.

Combine vinegar, soy sauce and honey then brush mixture all over chicken. Sprinkle with the thyme and remaining salt and pepper. Place clay baker in the middle of oven then turn on oven to 400 F (200 C). Roast for 2 hours or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced. Meat thermometer should register 185 F (85 C) for your chicken to be thoroughly cooked.

Roast Chicken and Peppers

Ingredients

• 3 pounds chicken, cut into chunks
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided 1 tablespoon plus 1-1/2 teaspoons
• fresh rosemary, chopped or 1-1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
• 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
• 3 bell peppers, red, yellow and green cut into 1-inch strips
• 1 medium onion, cut into wedges

Directions

Soak clay baker the usual way and pat dry. Preheat oven to 375°F. Place chicken into the clay baker. Combine 2 tablespoons oil, rosemary and lemon juice then brush over chicken. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Put clay baker in the center of oven and roast for 15 minutes. Toss vegetables with remaining oil, salt and pepper then arrange around chicken. Cook for 45 minutes. Meat thermometer should register at 180°F for chicken to cook thoroughly.

Understanding Bacon Mania

People are passionate about bacon. There are even bacon of the month clubs that offer membership for a yearly fee. So why does this simple cured meat have such a devoted following? What is the reason for its popularity?

The animal fat in the meat mixed with the added flavor infused into it during the curing process gives bacon an addictive quality that many people find hard to resist. That coupled with the fact that there isn't a readily available substitute, no matter how often health enthusiasts wish for such a thing, and you can clearly see why that bacon is so beloved.

Beyond that, however, it is a very versatile food. For example, it can be added to batter in order to make exceptionally good cornbread. Or it can be covered in dark chocolate and served. Either way, the wonderful flavor of the cured meat is still there and it pairs very well with a wide range of foods. Other novel uses of bacon include chicken fried bacon and bacon doughnuts.

While health experts decry the popularity of bacon as being a threat to the health of those who consume it, there seems to be no end to the mania that has swept the nation. The fact is that bacon has been around for thousands of years and has long since been a staple at the breakfast table. So it is highly unlikely that even with the increased awareness of consumers to their own health and nutrition that sales of bacon will decline substantially.

Some authors have even suggested that bacon is the perfect food for those of us who want to rebel against the status quo. Not only is it anti foodie, but it is also basic breakfast food in America. Some have even deemed bacon to be our national meat.

Even bacon fat has its uses. Saving the rendered fat is popular among thrifty consumers who use the oil in a variety of meal preparations ranging from gravy to cornbread to salad dressings.

As you can see, there is no other meat that really compares to bacon, both in terms of versatility and taste. One should also remember that although bacon is one of the more flavorful foods available, it is also relatively cheap. There is little doubt that this has helped increase its popularity among consumers. Bacon will certainly continue to be one of the more popular foods in America going forward.

Dip the breasts in 4 tbsp melted butter and then coat them with 1/3 cup Panko bread crumbs mixed with 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tbsp chopped parsley.

Pizza for Vegetarians and Vegans

When you think of pizza, you often imagine it covered in pepperoni, sausage, and cheese and a variety of dough made with or without eggs. This is not the only way. As a result of thorough recipe searches and restaurant ventures, we are all learning that there are so many different types of pizza out there these days.

Therefore, by cutting corners on certain animal product ingredients and substitutions elsewhere, a vegetarian and the strictest vegans can enjoy this baked, tasty, and convenient finger food whenever they want to as well.

Vegetarianism and veganism are important ways of dieting and living for those who participate. Although pizza is a fun and easy food, vegans and vegetarians have to take their food consumption seriously, especially when their dietary restrictions are for reasons of morals, health, or religion. For vegetarians or vegans, this is a habitual practice either for a period of time for dietary reasons or for life. However, anyone can try out the recipes that accommodate these lifestyle choices. You can create your own combination of ingredients to make a tasty and healthy version of your favorite pie.

First, vegetarianism involves the removal of meat and animal products from your diet. However, there is some leeway here. Some vegetarians often cut out meat, but they do consume egg-containing products for dietary balance. This is where veganism comes into play. Second, well-planned veganism focuses on both diet and environmentalism. Vegans do not consume or use dairy, eggs, meat, poultry, fish, or animal products of any kind, including clothing, etc. Both diets have to be well-planned to ensure the adequate amounts of vitamin B12, iron, vitamin D, calcium, iodine, and omega-3 fatty acids are included in their diet. Anyone for a soy slice?

Vegetarian and vegan pizza includes, but is not limited to utilizing alternative sources of ingredients for the bread and alternative sources for the cheese and protein so that you can get the vitamins and minerals that you need each day. Whether you are trying vegetarianism or veganism for the first time or it's a long-term commitment, you have to be sure that you are making all of the necessary substitutions and ingesting the right supplements, too. Your new version of Italian pie is just one meal of your day, but you still want to be sure that you are consuming all of the good things that you need to be healthy and strong at any age.

German Food: Your Best Choice

As regards to cuisine, we always think about the French one. Notwithstanding, there are many other countries that have spread their traditional or cultural food all over the world as a contribution to the generalized and international palate.

German cuisine has forayed into the international food consumption. Most of your favorite meals or recipes can be German originally. For instance, the U.S has a strong influence from the German cuisine.

Do you know the meatloaf, the hotdogs (frankfurters), the devil eggs, the hamburger (bouletten) and the tasty combination of beer and sausage? They were all born in Germany. They are a mixture and representation of the high number of German recipes that enrich the haute cuisine.

Germany has expanded its boundaries as regards its culinary traditions. It is not an easy task to summarize the general recipes or meals most eaten or recognized on this country since this phenomenon changes according to the region.

Meat is a symbolic dish in this country. The most popular meats are pork, chicken, goose, duck and turkey. Boars, rabbits and venison are also well accepted in the traditional market.

The most common cooking methods include marinated beef or venison in vinegar, these dishes are called Sauerbraten. Another significant aspect is the mixture of meats and other dishes with the outstanding German sausages. There are at least 1500 types of sausages (wurst) all over Germany.

This wurst is made using the casings from pork or sheep. There are miscellaneous types of sausages; however, among the most known are the Bratwurst and the Schwarzwurst.

On the other hand, German food goes beyond the meat industry. They also appreciate the characteristics and nutritional collateral benefits of the fish, apart from its genuine taste. The most eaten fish is the trout; 

nonetheless, it is not the only one. The pike, the carp, the European perch are also part of the wide and varied menu of German cuisine.

It is important to point out that, German food is not an exception of the refined or haute cuisine. Its bigger impact and hook is not due to a spicy or hot taste but to the incredibly soft and smooth flavour that arises from our palate as a result of a well mixture of condiments.

German cuisine is an unstoppable asserted creation of a diverse and unknown world of flavour and delightfulness. We should take back home some of its recipes and experiment a whole new experience.

The author specialises in writing about bratwurst sausages and stresses the importance of visiting a good German restaurant for your German meal. For more information, check: http://www.the-bratwurst.com/.

Three Of The Most Popular Types Of Restaurants

Let's face it, everyone loves eating out! However, before you pick up your cutlery you need to decide where it is you are wanting to eat. In the modern world, which is multicultural and full of fussy eaters, this can be quite a tough decision! In this article you will learn which are the most popular types of restaurants, so this way you should be able to ensure everyone has a great night out!

1. Italian Restaurants

I think pretty much everyone loves a good Italian meal and most Italian restaurants serve a wide variety of different pasta dishes, including household favorites such as Spaghetti Bolognese. There are certain aspects to this kind of Italian food that will displease the fussier eaters, as some dishes contain seafood and some are quite spicy, but on the whole they should work! You usually get a range of desserts including loads of great Italian desserts, such as the Tiramisu which is one of my favorites!

2. Indian Restaurants

Most people love to partake in a good curry, and the amount of Indian takeaways out there really show just how much we love a curry. The frustrating thing about curry is that at times it is thought of as always being based upon blowing ones head clean off. In actual fact, only some curries are very spicy and you can eat many milder curries that have their own unique flavour. As it originates from a different continent entirely, there are a whole hosts of different ideas that are brought to the table, including different types of bread and having a yoghurt as a side order to a main, although these ideas aren't likely to appeal to the more fussy eaters.

3. American Restaurants 

This is more of a last resort really, but at the same time there are some very popular chain restaurants that came from America that should work in your favour! American Restaurants are great as they tend to serve a lot of different types of meals originating from many different cultures, meaning you are pretty much guaranteed to please everyone! Pizza Hut and TGI Fridays are just two of the many fantastic options out there. I hope this article has helped you arrange that night out you've been wanting to go on.

There are so many other types of restaurants out there to dive into, but the main purpose of this post was to provide the ones that appeal to the masses. Happy dining!

The Best Places to Eat in Walt Disney World Resort

If there is another reason to visit Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando other than experiencing the rides and meeting Disney characters, it's the food. The Disney parks and hotels know how to put on a good spread with a huge selection of dishes to choose from. From fine dining to buffets, the most adventurous foodie would be satisfied with the culinary delights. The great thing is that Disney is an internationally known name and this is transferred into everything they do including their food, you only need to explore Epcot's pavilions to realise this. After all, a nation's food is considered to part of their culture, so let's take a look at where the best places to eat at the Walt Disney Resort are.

Port Orleans Hotel

If you walk into the dining room of the Port Orleans Hotel, you will be confronted with a huge range of choices. Guests will be able to choose from various kitchens, styled like an old water mill building, what they want to eat and how they want it cooked. I stopped by for lunch one day and ate from the pasta bar, where I could choose what type of pasta I wanted, what kind of sauce and ingredients. I ended up with linguini with prawns and pesto...and it was amazing. To be honest I was more surprised that I had chosen ingredients which tasted so good, but I also put that down to the cooks!

Other options include pizzas, sandwiches, salads and all kinds of desserts. Just make sure you're a good decision maker before visiting as you will be spoilt for choice.

Prime Time Café - Hollywood Studios

The Prime Time Café takes you back in time to the golden age of the American diner in Disney's Hollywood Studios. The interior is styled around the 50's household kitchen and includes all the food you'd expect, popularised at the time, such as the Traditional Meatloaf, Chicken Pot Pie and Milkshakes.

The tables of 4 come with a TV next to them showing sitcoms such as 'Father knows best' and original Mickey Mouse Club episodes. Although it's not the finest food, the entertainment is suited to the whole family and comes at a reasonable price.

Disney's Wilderness Lodge

The Wilderness Lodge is another Disney hotel which offers some upscale dining experiences. Styled after the great outdoors and National Parks of America, you can expect the menu to include some traditional dishes such as fish, beef and game. This is also a restaurant for the oenophiles, with 131 wines to choose from.
The setting is decidedly rustic, with log cabins, iron lanterns and timber columns, making it all seem rather dramatic.

One of the best dishes from the menu is the hotels signature cedar-plank roasted salmon, which goes nicely with a bottle of fruity white wine.

Victoria & Albert's

If you want to go all out on your dining experience then you can't get any better than Victoria & Albert's in Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. This restaurant has achieved the Triple A Diamond Award since 1990 and provides world class service.

To get an impression on how good the cooks are here, the menu is recreated each day, so no two visits will be the same experience. With 500 wines ranging from, affordable to once in a lifetime, the choices exceed even that of the Wilderness Lodge and constantly receive 'Best Award of Excellence' from Wine Spectator.

This is one for the connoisseur rather than the keen foodie and tables need to be booked well in advance...almost up to 180 days in advance!

Cinderella's Royal Table at Magic Kingdom

Ok, let's come back down to earth for a little bit and look at a restaurant more suited to the family.

Cinderaella's Royal Table keeps all the charm and magic of Disney and is a dining experience for the whole family, especially little Disney princesses.

You will need to book in advance for this dining experience as the tables are reserved with a set menu, however, there are still some great options with a 3 course menu for the kids as well as the adults. Of course you will also be able to meet Cinderella in person as she greets all of the guests.
