SCS PEACH STUFFING

1 cup diced carrots

1 cup diced celery

1 cup diced onions

1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

1/3 cup SCS Peach Rub

Salt and pepper to taste….if you use salted butter you will need to add less here.

 

Directions

  • Melt butter in 4-quart Dutch oven or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook carrots, celery, onion and poultry seasoning in butter 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the Peach rub to the cooked veggie/butter mixture stirring to combine, then gently add remaining ingredients, using spoon, until bread cubes are evenly coated. Add salt and pepper to taste and stir gently again.
  • Bake stuffing in a 3-quart casserole or rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches (no need to grease the pan with the butter in the recipe) . Place stuffing in casserole or baking dish, cover with lid or aluminum foil and bake at 325°F for 30 minutes; uncover, sprinkle a little bit more SCS Peach Rub on top and bake 15 minutes longer.

Posted on: October 5th, 2015 by admin No Comments

 

Serves 8

 

8oz fresh sliced mushrooms

2 tbsp melted butter

6 boneless/skinless chicken breasts

½ cup flour

¾ cup Marsala wine

½ cup chicken broth (low sodium if you have it)

½ cup SCS Blueberry Yankee Rub

½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup shredded parmesan cheese

2 chopped green onions

 

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

 

Cook the mushrooms in 2 tbsp butter in  a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Stirring frequently. (3-5 minutes or until tender) Set these aside for later.

 

Cut each chicken breast in half lengthwise and pound flat to approx. 1/8 inch thickness.

 

Dredge chicken in the flour then cook chicken over medium heat in 2 tbsp butter for 3-4 on each side (until golden) using the same skillet you just cooked the mushrooms in (do this in batches to ensure even cooking).

 

Lightly grease a 13×9 baking dish and place all cooked chicken into the baking dish (it’s okay to overlap the chicken slightly during this step) and evenly distribute your cooked mushrooms over the top of the chicken. BE SURE to reserve the pan drippings!!

 

Add the Marsala Wine, the chicken broth and the SCS Blueberry Rub to the same skillet with all the drippings, bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes(stir frequently). Pour sauce over chicken. Combine your cheeses and chopped green onions and sprinkle even over the chicken and mushrooms.

 

Bake uncovered at 450 degrees for about 13 minutes (until cheese is completely melted and starting to brown.

 

ENJOY!!!

Yankee Egg Sandwich

Posted on: March 8th, 2015 by admin No Comments

We love egg sandwiches in this house. Either on toast or bagels.
Easy fast and good!
Start frying up your eggs in a pan, but instead of using salt and pepper sprinkle your favorite Yankee rub on your eggs.
You can break the yolks or not…flip over, take off the heat…add cheese and onions if you like.
Toast up a real good bread or bagel.
How’s that for something different

Sweet Cherry Goulash

Posted on: February 27th, 2015 by admin No Comments

Here’s something different and so easy to make. Sweet cherry Goulash, and you family will love it….here’s what you need, now it’s a Goulash so you really can add in what you want, but this is the foundation:

2 lbs ground beef (80-20)

2 med onions

3 cloves minced garlic

2 15 oz. cans of tomato sauce

2 15 oz cans of dices tomatoes

6 tlbs Yankee Cherry Rub (you can use any other Yankee Rub)

2 tlbs soy sauce

2 tsp baking soda

1 lb elbow macaroni

3 bay leaves

OK…let’s start but browning the meat . Med to high heat and continue to break apart and brown evenly. Cut your onions the way you like…I like mine a little bigger but it really doesn’t matter. After draining the fat throw the onions and garlic in  and sauté for a bit, but not long. Throw the tomatoes in as well as the rub and the baking soda and soy sauce. Now…. the baking soda ….and it will foam, and that’s normal. It’s really neutralizing the acid levels, believe me you will love this trick. and then throw in what ever else you want, carrots, celery,mushrooms(Chef’s pick…right?) and then the bay leaves….let simmer . Have a big pot of water boiling and cook the macaroni. Drain mac and throw back into the big pot. Apply the sauce in parts and mix in evenly so everything is mixed in PERFECT!

Ahhh ENJOY LOL !!!
