INGREDIENTS

Servings: 4

 

4 potatoes
1 pound bacon, cut into 1.5-inch slices

 

Butter Sauce
4 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon parsley, minced

 

Chive Cream Cheese Sauce
1 cup milk
8 ounces cream cheese
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 cup chives, chopped

 

PREPARATION
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C.
  2. Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato, about ⅛ inch apart, stopping about ¼ inch from the bottom.
  3. Microwave your potatoes for 5 minutes per potato.
  4. Mix together melted butter, minced garlic, and minced parsley, and brush on the potato. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Insert 6-8 slices of bacon into the middle section of slots in the sliced potato.
  6. Transfer the potatoes to the oven and bake until the outsides are browned and crisp, about 30 minutes, basting with more butter if needed.
  7. In a sauce pan, combine the milk, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Heat and stir until well-combined and smooth.
  8. Add in the chopped chives to the cream cheese sauce. Stir and pour over the crispy potatoes.

Re: MARCH 2017 RECIPE EXCHANGE GAME

Another good recipe I found on margaretsmorsels.blogspot.com.  Love the fact these are baked rather than fried.

 

Baked Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
4 Servings

 

2 eggs
1 Tbsp. water
5 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 cup dried Italian bread crumbs
12 sticks string cheese
1 cup marinara or spaghetti sauce, heated

 

Combine eggs and water in a small bowl. Put flour in a small bowl or resealable plastic bag; put bread crumbs in another bowl or bag. Coat all the cheese sticks -- including the ends -- with flour and set aside.

 

Working with one cheese stick at a time, coat the cheese stick with the egg mixture, letting the excess drain off. Coat the cheese stick -- including the ends -- with flour. Coat the cheese stick a second time with the egg mixture and then thoroughly coat with bread crumbs, including the ends.

 

Put the assembled cheese sticks on a piece of wax paper in a storage container with a lid. When all the cheese sticks are coated, put on the lid and refrigerate for at least four hours.

 

When ready to bake, put the cheese sticks on an ungreased baking sheet and let sit at room temperature while the oven preheats. Bake uncovered at 400° for 15 minutes or until heated through. Use the marinara or spaghetti sauce for dipping.

 

Next Ingredient:  Bananas

This recipe is listed as printed in Best of the Best Five Ingredient Recipe Book.....with my notes.

 

Savory Baked Chicken

 

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

2 medium onions, sliced into rings (I use one)

1 head garlic, peeled, sliced (I use about 1 tsp. minced)

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (I use bottled)

1/2 cup WHITE WINE (cook drinks some too)

 

Wash chicken.  Preheat oven to 350.  Lightly grease a medium baking dish.  Layer bottom of baking dish with 1/2 the onions and 1/2 the garlic slices.  Pour lemon juice and WHITE WINE into baking dish.  Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste, and place in baking dish.  Top with remaining onions and garlic.  Bake 25 minutes in preheated oven, or until juices run clear. (I bake little longer.)

Place salmon in a foil pouch.  Add a sprinkle of herbs, a dash of pepper, and a touch of WHITE WINE.  Tent foil and bake at 425 for 15-20 minutes.
