YaDa Chef’s Sweet Georgia Chicken Recipe

If your peaches are still a bit under ripe when you get home, put them in a paper bag with a banana, they will soften up in no time. This dish is best when peaches are at their peak. Substitute with the best frozen peach slices without syrup you can find.

Serves 4

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon/5ml sea salt
1 teaspoon/5ml black pepper
1/4 cup/59ml all purpose GF flour, corn starch, potato starch or rice flour
1 tablespoon/15ml olive oil
4 peaches, stoned and sliced into eighths (or bite sized pieces)
1 branch fresh rosemary, leaves removed and minced
3 ounces/85g brandy
1/3 cup/89ml chicken stock
2 tablespoons/30ml rice cream cheese

Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Place flour in a plate or a large plastic bag. Coat chicken with flour, shaking off excess. Heat large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil letting it heat for 15 - 30 seconds swirling it around the pan to coat. Saute the chicken 4 minutes each side. Remove chicken from the pan. Add brandy, stock, rosemary and peach slices. Cook for 2 - 3 minutes. Add cream cheese, stirring to combine cooking for another 1-2 minutes to thicken the sauce. Return chicken to pan to heat through.

Serve with rice and carrots.

Roasted Eggplant Recipe

Roasting is one of the best ways to cook eggplant. 2 Medium Eggplants 1/4cup / 60ml Olive Oil 1/2teaspoon / 2.5g Sea Salt 1/2teaspoon / 2.5g Garlic Powder 1/4teaspoon/ 1.25g Black Pepper Instructions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Slice the eggplant crosswise to make circles, about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) thick. Cut off the leafy end only after you are done slicing, so that you'll have more to grab onto as you slice. Arrange the eggplant slices on an extra large baking sheet in a single layer. Brush with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Flip and repeat the olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Roast eggplant in the oven for 30-35 minutes , until soft, golden, and caramelized.

Preserved Lemons in an “Instant”

Okay it’s really not an instant, in fact it takes about 30 minutes or if you do the oven way 3 hours--I prefer the stove top method. 1 lemon, cut into 1/4 inch/6mm thick slices 1/2 cup/125ml lemon juice 1 tablespoon/15ml/g coarse salt In a shallow sauce pan add the lemons, juice and salt. Bring to a boil until the salt dissolves. Reduce heat and let simmer for 30 minutes and the rinds become almost translucent and liquid is reduced by half. Oven method 6 lemons sliced into 1/4 inch/6mm slices 6 tablespoons 75ml/g coarse salt 1 cup/250ml lemon juice Preheat an oven to 200F/100C Place lemons in a baking dish just large enough to lay the slices in one layer. Sprinkle with salt and pour over the juice (it should just cover the lemons). Place in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Pour lemons and brine into clean airtight jars. Let cool, cover and store in the refrigerator. Palm Beach Personal Chef Fort Lauderdale Personal Chef Miami Personal...
