Basil Chicken Paillard

Lately I have been experimenting in the kitchen.  There are times that I never follow recipes and I just make it up as I go.  That's what I love about cooking, you can just play and sometimes make a great recipes out of it.  Like in this instance.  I mixed Sesame oil with Extra Virgin Olive oil, a bit of balsamic vinegar and basil.  It's a magical experience on my palate, one that is fragrant.

In a saute pan over medium to high heat add the following:

1/4 cup extra virgin light olive oil
1/8 cup balsamic vinegar
a few sprinkles of sesame oil-just a few drops-it goes a long way

bring to a boil
add thin chicken fillets into saute pan
let each side brown for a few minutes 

Reduce heat to medium.

add more oil (both sesame and olive)
add more balsamic vinegar
add Marsala Cooking Wine (Holland House is gluten-free)
add anywhere from a few teaspoons to 1/4 cup of each, depending on how well your chicken is cooking.

Cook long enough that the chicken is completely cooked through.

At the last moment add in 1 tablespoon of chopped basil.

Makes two pieces.  If you use a bigger saucepan, you can make more by adding more of each ingredient.  Double the recipe.

Enjoy! xoxo Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
