I found a few of our new recipes this week at this great food blog.

For a recipe to share, this is one of my favorites - Simsbury Chicken. I can't remember where I found this one, but I know it's great!

Simsbury Chicken
2-4 Chicken Breasts
1/2 to 1lb of Sliced Munster Cheese
1 eggBread Crumbs
1/4 Cup white wine
2 Chicken Bouillon cubes
1/2-3/4 Cup hot water
Mushrooms (We saute them in butter/garlic to give them a good flavor)

1.Cut up chicken into bite size peices. Beat egg in mixing bowl and toss chicken in. Coat it well. *if you have time, let it sit in the fridge like this for an 1/2hr. or hr.* but if not, no big deal.
2.Large skillet w/oil. Saute chicken after dipping them in bread crumbs.
3.Layer in casserole dish chicken/mushrooms then the cheese.
4.When ready to bake, disolve the bouillon cubes in 1/2 or 3/4 cup water and pour in the 1/4 cup of white wine. Pour this over the dish. Bake uncovered at 350 for 30 min.

We always serve this over rice and add lots of extra mushrooms and cheese!
