I bought a six-liter slow cooker recently, after marathoning the Blue Story thread. I do feel a bit guilty for using a shortcut, but it's going to save my life on days when I don't get home until after seven. It's nice sitting down to a hot meal that I don't have to cook after a twelve-hour day. Vaguely Moroccan Chicken Stew (apologies for inexact quantities; I never measure this) Chicken parts of your choice (I used breasts because that was easiest for me.) One large zucchini One smallish eggplant Two tomatoes One onion 6-7 cloves of garlic ~1/3 cup green olives with brine. Two red peppers ras-el-hanout or any concatenation of the appropriate spices (I used cinnamon, oregano, cumin, and bit of turmeric in my last batch) Golden raisins (if you want...I don't like raisins, but I imagine they would be good in this.) Juice of 1 small lemon Olive oil Chop all the planty bits. Add a glug of olive oil to the pot, then dump the onions and garlic in first, then the eggplants, then the chicken breasts, then spices, then the rest. I cooked this on Low for nine hours, but you could likely do it in less. Once you get home, open the lid and add the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Stir; the chicken should fall apart if you so much as look at it. Eat it alone or with a side of couscous, rice, bread, and/or yogurt. You could easily replace the chicken with another meat, I think. Anyways. I like it! Fleta Mcgurn fucked around with this message at 10:35 on May 30, 2016 |

Salsa chicken, but with kimchi instead of salsa.

not_superiority posted:How long would you cook this abomination? It sounds delicious. I would say probably no more than six hours if you can help it, but I've done it for eight on low and it was all right. However long you're meant to put it in for the salsa chicken recipe posted earlier. As a recovering vegetarian, chicken is the most daunting meat for me to cook and handle because I'm always terrified of not cooking it enough. I actually like the shredded texture the slow cooker gives chicken, and I like it because I'm like IT'S SAFE TO EAT!!!!!!!!!! Fleta Mcgurn fucked around with this message at 07:32 on Nov 9, 2016 |

coyo7e posted:It's pretty rare to get sick off chicken if you actually try to cook it at all, and believe me I've eaten so horrifically undercooked chicken. Thank you for letting me peep these chickentips! I err on the side of extreme caution because a) I am idiot as explained above, and b) Since I live in China, I'm extremely wary about food safety in my house (because there isn't much I can do outside the house.) So far, I've only had food poisoning twice, and once was my fault, so I feel like I'm doing okay. not_superiority posted:Get a meat thermometer and try roasting a whole fryer, that's where the magic is! This ooks me less than chicken breasts out of the package. Dunno why. But I agree, roasting a whole chicken is the greatest thing ever and they really should have taught me that in Home Ec, rather than how to make doughnuts or whatever stupid poo poo we did.
