This week, I repeated several recipes that we had already tried. The teriyaki chicken wings seem to be something we’re going to have at least once a week. Those are so good and so easy to fix and great for serving at lunch.
The new things I tried are . . first, Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Rice. It was delicious but it definitely needed more seasonings for our taste. I added about 2 teaspoons of Slap Ya Mama cajun spice. Also, I needed to add a bit more liquid and cook the dish another 4 minutes because when I first opened the cooker, I had rice on top that wasn’t quite done. It was also very good reheated.
I used frozen broccoli as mentioned in the recipe but when I make it again, I will use fresh broccoli. The recipe I’ve made for years, the broccoli is cooked more . . almost to nothing . . and I like it that way.

The second new recipe I tried was Pressure Cooker Cincinnati Chili. Vince loves Cincinnati Chili and I’m not so crazy about it. The pressure cooker recipe I used was so much easier and from what I could tell, tasted about the same as the recipe that takes much longer to make.

This recipe makes enough to feed at least 8 people so it gave us lots of leftovers.

oooohhhh……dont take this wrong, this is a total compliment…….but the grease (sauce?) I can see on the edges of your chili remind me of my Grandad’s chili! I have the recipe but can no longer find the ingredients – or dont know where to look – but it was the best. He was born/raised PA but lived a lot of his life in TX!

It’s just liquid. I used elk and there was no grease in that. There’s water in the recipe and I used my home canned tomatoes, which have more liquid than most store bought tomatoes.
Not sure what ingredients you can’t find . . the recipe I use for Cincinnati and regular chili call for things I can buy in my small town where a lot of things I can’t find.

suet! suet is what I cant find/not willing to look for! Again, I hope you didnt take umbrage at my use of the word grease…..must be the tomatoes that make it that particular color, and spices

Can I post a total hit from the Christmas season? This isn’t my recipe, I found it on a blog by Christy Jordan. It’s called Tiger Butter, and oh my gosh, is this ever good, and super easy to make. The blog post with her recipe is at http://www.southernplate.com/2012/12/tiger-butter-and-why-i-already-have-my-christmas.html. We have a chest type freezer, and I found that it would set up faster when I put the metal pan on top. 🙂
