Amish Chicken
I can't honestly tell you what makes this chicken dish Amish. Or if it is in fact a real Amish dish.
I just know that it has been a hot recipe on Pinterest. It looked good and easy, and I decided to give it a try.
And the verdict was...
it is a keeper.
It really took all of 5 minutes to put it together. It does take an hour and a half to bake but I don't have to be IN the kitchen for more than 5 of those minutes.
And for that, I give it five stars...
Ingredients:
4-6 chicken breasts or pieces cleaned (I used 6 boneless/skinless breasts)
1 cup flour
2 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 tsp paprika (due to our food issues here, I left that out and just added a little white pepper instead)
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream (I actually only used 1 cup in a slight effort to be healthier :)
1 1/2 cups water (I increased it to 2 to make up for the less whipping cream...next time I won't do that. I had way too much sauce/liquid)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika in a ziplock bag or a bowl. Coat chicken in it. (I find it easier to put it all in a ziplock and shake away :)
Place in a large baking dish.
Combine the whipping cream with the water and pour over the chicken.
Bake for an hour and a half.
I will say that after an hour mine was getting a little brown in parts so I just covered it with foil for the remaining cooking time.
We ate ours over bowtie pasta (YUM). We also had carrots/Ranch and the butter dip biscuits I mentioned yesterday.
Worth every bite. And calorie. :)
