Too complicated or stuff in them I'm not supposed to eat and can't think of
substitute. Can't give details: looked too long ago & can't remember exact
problem ingredients.

I had a delicious chile verde stew that used pork but you surely could
substitute chicken - haven't actually made it but maybe someone here can
tell us how

A short time ago I found some Great Value chili beans with sauce at
Walmart. That and a little baked chicken should work.

No, but here's what I made for lunch today. Lemony Chicken.

Put olive oil in a roasting pan in oven, turn on (200C)

while it heats

skin half a dozen shallots (small onions> Or peel and quarter larger
ones)

Peel and cube a couple of potatoes (one-inch cubes)

Cut a stick of celery in coarse diagonal slices

Quarter two bulbs of fennel (save any green leaves for garnish later)

Quarter a couple of lemons length ways,remove any pips).

Toss everything in the sizzling oil with some fresh twigs of rosemary
and thyme, shake the pan well, and put it in the hot oven for 20 minutes

While you slice a couple of raw chicken breasts into strips as thick
as your thumb and toss them until coated in a mixture of flour, S+P and
ground chillies (to taste).

squeeze the juice from another lemon.

After 20 minutes poke a skewer in the veg to see if they are nearly
done yet; they might need another few minutes. When the skewer slips
in, push them to one end of the pan, add a little more oil in the empty
space and toss the chicken strips in it, turn them, add the lemon juice
and a glass of white wine, return to hot oven for 20 minutes. Then turn
off the oven and turn on the grill/broiler to glaze lightly brown.

The lemon flesh will have melted into the juice, wine and flour to
make a light fresh sauce. Plate the veg and chicken, pour over the
sauce, garnish, enjoy.

Ruby Tuesday used to offer a nice white chicken chili, I liked
it enough to look for a copycat recipe. I haven't tried this one
myself but maybe it will look like something you'd like.

I don't have one but I can make one up on the spot. All you need is to imagine what you want it to taste like and the skill to match the flavor you have in mind. The taste that I have in mind would be onion/cumin/garlic/chiles. Tomato would be optional. I'd add some sugar and mustard to tweak the flavor just a little. Bell pepper would be great too but I don't have any of that.

McDonald's is your culinary friend. Relax and enjoy. sheez!

For real though: If your area has Food Lion grocery stores,
try their can of 'hot dog chili'. It's store brand, very cheap,
and tastes fantastic on it own. It's vegetarian too if that's
your problem.

All this nutrition bs here is funny. I'm just trying to speak
realistically. Food need not be a problem or a chore. McDonald's is your
friend, just don't eat it all the time. I'm heading into old-age
territory now where I can claim that it hasn't killed me yet.

I realize that some have health issues but many that don't just worry
too much. It's just dinner, for God's sake. Life isn't worth living much
if you can't even enjoy a good meal.

Stress issues kill people much faster than food. Stay happy and don't
worry much (within reason).

Here's ours. May have come from sunset magazine ...

White Chicken Chili
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ingredients:

3 1/2-4 lb. bone-in skin-on chicken breasts
2-2 1/2 cups chicken broth, not concentrated
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 large onions, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup dry white wine
2 15 oz. cans Cannellini (white kidney beans), rinsed, drained
1/4 cup lime juice
1 4 oz. can Diced Green Chiles
1 Jalapeño pepper, stemmed, seeded, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
1 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (~? lb.)
condiments, (see below)

Directions:

Discard chicken skin and fat. Over high heat, grill chicken until the
thickest part of breast is no longer pink.

When chicken is cool enough, cut into 1/2" cubes.

Pour oil into large pot and place over medium-high heat. Add onions and
garlic; stir often until onions are golden and taste sweet, about 20
minutes.

Add 2 cups broth, wine, beans, lime juice, green chilies, jalapeño,
cilantro, oregano, cumin, and cinnamon. Bring to boil over high heat;
cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Stir in chicken and cheese;
heat until hot. If too thick, add broth as desired. Taste for salt.
Ladle into bowls and add condiments to taste.

Condiments:
diced Roma tomatoes, shredded jack cheese, sliced ripe olives, fresh
cilantro sprigs.

You're so addicted to paint fumes, ferrets and McDonalds you don't
even know you're mainlining shit.

taste. Tried adding crushed red pepper, little help.

Quick and Dirty Cheat Method for non-Cooks

Use the Texas White lightening chili recipe.

Buy a rotisserie chicken (pick the meat off bones and set aside)
buy a couple of cans of white beans (cannelini or kidney or whatever
you like
buy a couple of cans of diced green chilies
buy maybe 4 cans of chicken broth or 2 boxes
use chili powder to substitute for cumin, oregano, any other
seasonings. If you don't have any, buy some
you will have to add salt to taste
you may need to skip the water, you decide as the soup is coming
together
you are going to have to buy the onion and garlic and chop them
yourself (or go Sheldon's way and buy diced dehydrated onions and
powder garlic)
Put the chili together as the recipe directs.

Try it. It may work out for you the way you want.

The Turkey Black Bean Chili is an easy one. It will produce a red
chili. It does taste much like regular chili.
Substitute ground chicken for ground turkey

Looks interesting and within my capabilities. Thanks for the chili powder
mention; I have some but didn't know it replaced all those spices - just
used it as called for in recipes. I love northern beans, wonder if they'd
work?

Now printing a couple of the white lightning recipes to go with your
message.

Thanks much.

Commercial Chili Powder (not powder chilies) contains chili pepper,
cumin, oregano, garlic and some salt. McCormick and such brands will
have a product called Chili Powder. (May even find it in the bulk
section - much cheaper) If your chili powder is ancient, the taste
will be muted. You, for your own taste must adjust if you need more
salt. Remember, the rotisserie chicken is pretty salty, so are the
canned beans and perhaps the canned chicken broth. So tasting is
important. Northern beans will work just fine. If you are cruising
the shelves, take a look around. Cannelini beans are white kidney
beans. I wouldn't use garbanzo beans. Anything else, just ask

The chicken chili I've encountered was generally "white chili". IOW,
made with white beans (navy or great northern), not "chili beans"
(likely kidneys) in a seasoned sauce. If it doesn't bother you that
chicken chili is red, find a chili recipe you like and substitute
chicken for beef or pork.

Good luck in your search.

Gary, did you totally miss the thread about the diet his rheumetologist
suggested he try to make him feel better? (Basically an elimination
diet, I think, due to joint pain, etc.) His going to McDonald's is only
going to make *you* feel better. Last time I checked McD's didn't serve
chicken chili. He wants to make some. Why do you have a problem with
that? BTW, Ken is 82. You're nowhere near that yet.

He doesn't bring up Mia much anymore, and I'm sure he wears a mask while
painting. But he certainly mentions McD's more than anyone I know, all
the while claiming to rarely eat there. Ken asked for a simple recipe
for chicken chili. Wish I had one to give him but I don't. I have
never liked chicken in any kind of chili.

Jill

you might get yourself a crockpot/slow cooker, if you don't have one,
and experiment

it's surprising all the things you can make in a crockpot

I rarely do. I'm teasing about it. I mention "how great" it is
just because so many here seem to dislike it so much.
I can picture them grimmacing at the mention of McD. heheh
That said, yes I do like the food.

Painting - dusk mask or respirator as the need comes.

As for Mia, I think about her every day but no need
to cry about it in public. It's been over a year now.

Anyway, it's Friday (whew). Go have a Big Mac! :-D

Were you replying to me? Hard to tell since you don't quote anything
using Google. I own a crockpot. Using one won't make me like chicken
chili.

The only thing I've found a crock pot does well is cook six+ servings
of steel cut oatmeal... no constant stirring needed.

One of my favorite crockpot meals is northern beans, onions, garlic, and
a smoked meat - pork shanks, turkey wings or legs, whatever. I can post
the recipe if anyone cares.

I love a good meal! That's why I don't cook.

Crockpot is also good for making chicken stock. It doesn't make a huge
batch but put everything in there and let it go for 24 hours or more and
it turns out very rich.

I don't care if the burgers are frozen or not. Handling non-frozen meat is a tricky proposition. OTOH, I was talking to a food service guy and he said he once spotted some water coming out of a closet. Upon investigation, he was shocked to find boxes of chicken thawing out. The cook came in the next day and was ****ed that he threw away some of her chicken and placed the rest in the refrigerator. The manager told her it was time for her to retire or else he would fire her. She took the smart way out.

The guy told me that poor food handling by untrained persons was rampant in the industry. The question is will McDonald's be up to this new level of safety requirements? Personally, I see no reason that they should take this on.

or maybe not. I've found that often the "new and improved" things
aren't as good as the original. Personally, when I go to a
fast food restaurant, frozen beef is fine. I freeze things all
the time at home and they are fine.

Funny that the story said:
-----
"It took two years and a team of 40 people, including operators, supply
chain representatives, marketing and culinary
experts, to devise the processes that will make the change feasible
across 14,000 restaurants."

So...it took a "team" of 40 people 2 years to 'discover' that fresh beef
might be better than frozen?

LOL! I would fire them all. Slackers and a big drain on corporate
profits.

Change is not always for the better.

I abhor dishes where poultry is subbed for red meat... a neighbor once
invited me to dinner and served turkey lasagna, I juat had a few 2nis
with salsa and chips. Turkey/chicken chili is TIAD. However the
easiest way to make chicken chile is Texass style, with chicken tube
steak.

Nonsense... ALL fast food burgers are disgusting mystery meat.

The McCormick recipe is excellent. No need to follow it word for
word, but it's a great road map. I make chicken chili when I have
leftover rotisserie chicken to use up.

Hey, you'll like this - Quarter Pounders are going to be "fresh"
(never frozen) patties cooked to order. They test marketed the idea
for a couple of years in some part of Texas and they're rolling it out
nationwide now.

Cutting a chicken breast into cubes and frying doesn't seem like a good idea. The pieces won't look very appealing. I'd boil the whole breast and then cut it into cubes then use the chicken stock. Using a rotisserie chicken would be a good way to go too.
