Herb Roasted Chicken and Corn and Squash Saute

Herb Roasted Chicken and Corn and Squash Saute

 Herbs and spices used (Paprika, Ground Mustard, Oregano, Basil and Parsley Flakes) Soften 1/2 stick of butter, mix in spices and herbs and spread over the chicken. (Rinse chicken in cold water, pat dry with paper towel.) Roast at 350 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours. It depends on the size of the chicken. The rule of thumb is about 20 minutes per pound.
 Sorry about the photo. I was so eager to eat it that I forgot to take the photo before cutting into it lol!
 Corn and Squash Saute:

5 ears Corn
1 Zucchini, diced
1 Yellow Squash, diced
1 Red Pepper, diced
1 Red or White Onion, diced
3T Olive Oil

I cooked the corn first in boiling water for about 10 minutes and then let it cool in the fridge for about 10 minutes. I stood the corn upright and cut the corn off the cob and set it aside. Heat a large frying pan (medium heat), add olive oil. Cook onion and red pepper first for about 3-4 minutes. Add zucchini and squash and cook about 5 minutes. Add corn and mix in well, cooking another 3 minutes. Serve with Herb Roasted Chicken, pictured below:

You'll notice there is gravy on the chicken. You don't have to make a gravy, but if you want to, here's a basic recipe:

Make a slurry with flour and water, whisking together until the mixture is smooth, about 1/2c water to 1/3c flour. Reserve liquid from the roasted chicken and pour it in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then add the slurry slowly, until it starts to thicken slightly. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes to cook out the flavor of the flour. You may not use all of the slurry, it depends on how much liquid you get from roasting the chicken.

ENJOY!

Daniel Fast Days 16-18

 Daniel Fast Meal Plan: Days 16‐18 Note: This set of meals is a celebration of the healing you’ve experienced thus far and as a sign of greater healing to come. As you prepare these meals and enjoy the vibrancy of flavors, let that encourage what is awakening inside of you. God has incredible things in store for His bride and He’s preparing her to be a bride without spot or blemish, much in the same way that Esther was prepared to be chosen by the King. The words I can use to describe this set of meals are light richness! As you enjoy these meals you will discover a light richness in the food that is a small reflection of the richness we experience with God as we commune with Him and that comes with a light burden. May you enjoy continual communion with Him as you allow the Messiah to become fully integrated into every facet of your being. AMEN and Happy Fasting! Breakfast for Days 16‐18: Cranberry, Nut and Dried Fruit Puree (3/4 cup) and 1 Banana Cranberry, Nut and Dried Fruit Pur...

Daniel Fast days 4-6 Feb 20-22

Daniel Fast Meal Plan: Days 4‐6 (Feb 20-22) Note: The recipes for the first few days of the fast focused more on detoxifying the body and thus it was necessary to allow the smoothie and the soup to do just that in the body. The next three days focus more on enjoying the complexity and vibrancy of some of the foods that God intended for us to enjoy. As you prepare the meals, allow your heart and mind to enjoy the discovery of creating something new. You will discover that there is a complex unity that emerges as you taste, what may be, new combinations for you and new textures. Even if it is unfamiliar to you, I encourage you to think of each meal as a culinary adventure and be willing to take the risks. My hope is that you will find a new joy in preparing and eating the range of healthy, colorfully vibrant and completely nutritious meals from God’s garden. Breakfast for Days 4‐6: Fig & Banana Smoothie, Pecans (1/2 cup) Fig & Banana Smoothie (Serves 1)  1 Banana (chopped)  4 ...
