Raspberry Chicken & A New Cookbook

I've been doing this blog for months, and I have finally hit a point where there's only 2 or 3 recipes left in each book I want to try, so I have mixed in a new cookbook!
I watch Trisha Yearwood's Food Network cooking show every Saturday morning and jumped at picking up Trisha's Table when I came across it.
This dish stood out to me. A savory chicken dish with a dash of fruit.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast cutlets
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup of olive oil
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup of white wine
1 cup of chicken stock
6 ounces of mushrooms
1 cup of raspberries
2 tbs of salted butter
1 tsp of lemon zest
1 tbs of balsamic vinegar

Directions
Season chicken with salt and pepper.
Put flour in a shallow bowl and dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil in medium heat until it simmers.
Add the chicken and sear until slightly brown, about 3 minutes a side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet.
Add the shallot and garlic to the same pan and cook for about 1 minute.
Add the wine and chicken stock and cook until slightly reduces, about 10 minutes.
Add the mushrooms , and reduce heat to low.
Return chicken to skillet, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
Add raspberries, lemon zest, butter and balsamic.
Once butter is melted, serve.

Changes I made!
I didn't check my pantry accurately and used white balsamic vinegar instead of regular, but this dish was still amazing.

This recipe is from Trisha's Table.

"A Farewell to Arms" Mac N Cheese

I love reading, so when I was given The Book Lovers Cook Book it was a dream come true. I have a deep love for The Lost Generation, so this recipe sneaked in between a quote from Gertrude Stein, and a passage from Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms" was a perfect start for me. Ingredients 2 cups of uncooked macaroni 1/4 cup of butter 2 tbs of flour 2 cups of milk 8 oz of cream cheese, softened 2 tsp of Dijon mustard 1/2 tsp of salt 1/2 tsp of pepper 8 oz of mild cheddar, grated Chives Directions Cook macaroni until tender, drain and set aside. Melt butter in a sauce pan until it sizzles. Stir in flour, and cook for at least 1 minute. Continue cooking over medium heat and add milk, cream cheese, mustard, salt and peppe...

Baked Potato Soup

Baked potato soup is one of the first soups I learned how to make, and this recipe is my go to recipe, especially in the middle of winter, because most of the ingredients I have on hand at all times. Ingredients 2 medium potatoes, bakes and cooled 1 can of chicken broth 2 tbs of sour cream 1/8 tsp of pepper 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese Directions Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Place 1/2 of the potato in a blender and with chicken broth. Pour mix into sauce pan and add remaining potato, sour cream and pepper. Cook over low heat until heated through. Garnish with shredded cheddar cheese, and whatever else you want. Changes I made! I do not mess with this recipe except what I add on top when I eat. This recipe is from Taste of Home.

Stuffed portobello

This is a dish I always heard about, but have never actually had, until I made it myself for this blog. I love mushrooms, but if there's one thing this recipe introduced to me is a love for white bean puree. Overall, very good and hearty vegetarian dish. Ingredients 1 15 ounce can of drained white kidney or cannellini beans, rinsed and drained 2 tbs of olive oil, divided 1 tbs of water 1 tsp dried rosemary 1 garlic clove, crushed 1/4 tsp of salt 1/4 tsp pepper 4 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed 1 medium sweet red pepper, finely chopped 1 medium red onion, finely chopped 1 medium zucchini, finely chopped. 1/2 cup of shredded pepper jack cheese Directions In a food processor, combine beans, one tbs of oil, water, rosemary, garlic, salt and...
