| ANYBODY HAVE ANY RECIPES OF MEALS DONE IN A FRYING PAN THAT DON'T TAKE LONG AND ARE EASY?
Posted: 8/4/2006 8:04:43 PM | This one is quick:
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 jar spaghetti sauce
1-1/2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (I use the large elbows)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Brown the meat and onion over medium-high heat in the skillet; season as desired. Drain and put back in the skillet. Add spaghetti sauce and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil. Stir in the macaroni. Cover and simmer 8-10 minutes or until the pasta is tender. Stir in the cheese.
An easy chicken dish:
boneless skinless chicken breasts (how ever many you need, usually 1 per person)
chicken broth
fajita seasoning
tortillas
Put the chicken breasts in a pan and cover with broth (you can use chicken boullion). Simmer until done about 20 minutes from frozen. Shred the chicken and sprinkle on a generous amount of fajita seasoning. Let simmer for a few more minutes while you heat the tortillas. You can garnish these any way you like. We use pico de gallo, guacamole, green onions, tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, olives, etc. You can make a big meal adding rice, refried beans and a salad. | |

Posted: 8/5/2006 1:02:16 PM | Here's a recipe than can be done in a sauce pan or crock pot. I like the corning ware pot. It is like a New England Boiled DInner. But a cheaper version. YOU need-potatoes, carrots, onion and cabbage. And of course-hamburger or choppedmeat. In the pan place cut up potates, carrots and onion, then crumble the raw hamburger around the veggies. Salt and pepper to taste; top withthe cabbage cut into thin wedges; add water about half way up pan. Cook to boil with lid on and simmer with lid ajar until all is tender. Serve with butter.
Different version: Use polish sausage or smoked sausage. THis is a cheap meal that feeds everybody. Very eay to make. Just don't boil over the pan and turn heat down so the potates do not get burned. THis is an old recipe very basic. | |

Posted: 8/13/2006 12:14:12 PM | You can also scramble a few eggs (I like to add some chopped green onion) and wrap them in a tortilla - very quick. I like to put salsa on top of this.
I like to eat healthy, and brown rice is healthy. I make a batch using one or two cups of rice, and it keeps a long time in the fridge or you can freeze it too. Then you can microwave it to heat it up, or stir-fry it and add cut-up chicken breasts or beef or fish or whatever - chopped onion or any veggies you like - carrots, celery, frozen veg. etc. You can also stir-fry it and for the last minute, add eggs and soy sauce and scramble it all for egg foo yung. Can also add bean sprouts. Brown rice is very versatile - you can add almost anything to it to make a meal. | |

Posted: 8/15/2006 6:30:09 PM | try this one its easy and great ,,chicken fettucini alfredo my way lol, its one skillet except for boiling the fettucini noodles : this feeds one person , for more just double it and use a larger skillet :
4 oz chicken breast cut into bite size pieces ( about a nice handfull ), 1/2 to 1 teaspoon fine chopped garlic depending on your taste ( I like the prechopped garlic in oil ) 1 tablespoon butter , 2 oz of heavy whipping cream ( or about a 1/4 cup) , 4 oz of pre cooked fettucini noodles ( or a nice handfull) 3 oz of grated parmesan cheese (or again a nice handfull) ( no not the kind in the can lol) get real cheese sargento`s makes a great italian 6 cheese blend I like to use ,, but parmesan is the authentic alfredo but both are great , pinch of chopped parsley or chives can be dry or fresh ,,ok pre cook fett noodles ,when done ,cool em under cold water ,,,then in one skillet , add your butter your garlic your chicken breast ,, saute - cook till chicken is done ,reduce heat to medium , then add your cooked fett noodles , then add your heavy whipping cream cook about minute ,,use a large spoon or spatula to turn this mixture over once ,all your doing is bringin the hot bottom side of the food up to the top ,,add your cheese on top ,,let cook about a minute more ,,should tighten up look great hold a plate in one hand palm up , hold the skillet in your other hand pour it onto the plate ,,,sprinkle with some parsley or chive ,and serve ,your done ,,simple easy ,,shine your friends or a mate on its fun ,,if its too runny add more cheese if its to tight add a little more whipping cream ,,, when you get this down to a science takes about 3 to 5 minutes to make , longest thing is boiling the noodles ,,,enjoy p.s also goes great with a pink to red merlot wine , a nice salad and some hot bread lol | |

Posted: 8/17/2006 4:15:36 AM | Another one wouldn't hurt...
Saltimbocca-
Veal or turkey, cut thin as per scallopini
Proscuitto, cut thin (1/16")
Fresh sage
Chicken stock
Dry red wine
Toothpicks
Cut the meat into strips about 1-1/2" wide. Lay the veal on top of the proscuitto. Lay a sage leaf in the middle. Roll it up. Pin it with a toothpick.
To a frying pan add the chicken stock and red wine in equal parts. Bring to a boil, then reduceheat, add the rollups and cook 'till done. Cooking fluid can be reduced to a sauce for this, if desired. | |

Posted: 1/20/2007 10:43:18 AM | QUICK, EASY AND HEALTHY???
Look, I'm a great cook and I highly recommend you take this down. Go to ur local 'asian market' and buy oyster sauce or oyster flavoured sauce. It's the key ingredient.
Chop, mince or what ever you want or have on hand of the following.
garlic, onions, brocolli, mushrooms, corn (frozen/canned), bamboo shoots(canned), waterchestnuts (canned), zuccini, beansprouts, carrots, beans, peas, all bell peppers, ginger, cabbage, bok choy, gai lan, tofu, beef, chicken, seafood (prepackaged assorted are cheap and great!), pork.
use pam spray or olive oil, sautee the ingredients to ur liking. add a few table spoons of oyster sauce, pinch of sugar. WHA LA!!
I eat it with a big plate of salad (3 to 5 times a week). But excellent with rice or noodles!!
special notes:
meats-trimmed or lean for less fat
cook meats and onions first
dont cook garlic first, it burns
high heat works best
if its too dry add stock or water
depending on how quick u are, should only take 15 mins
extras:
seseme seeds
celantro/corriander
seseme oil
hotsauce
like it saucy? mix cornstarch with water, add to pan, use stock or water for disired consistancy. cook till thickened.
LOSE WIEGHT AND EAT GREAT!!!
lol. your welcome. | |

Posted: 1/20/2007 3:22:57 PM | Shred two potatoes, squeeze the juice out over the sink. Place some butter flavor crisco or whatnot in the pan. Put half the potatoes in over med low heat. Put on romano cheese, oregano, garlic salt, and pepperoni slices. Then add the other half of the potato shreds. Cook about 8-12 minutes then flip, cooking until golden brown.
I call it the Pizza Flavored Stuffed Hash Brown and I make it a lot. I invented it and I frequently change the middle ingredients to suit my capricious whim for the day. | |

Posted: 7/4/2009 8:44:14 PM | OR TRY THIS ONE. I got it from the Biggest Looser TV show and I love it.
Spray your skillet with a three second burst of PAM
Put in a skinless chicken brest and fry for 3-4 minutes.
Turn chicken over, and pour a can of RO*TEL diced tomatoes &green chilies (I use the mild for more robust tomatoe flavor and less heat)
Cook another 3-4 minutes.
Thats it and you have a low calorie, super tasting quick meal with a meat and vegetables. To double the recipie, just add a second chicken brest in the same pan. You will be eating in less than ten minutes prep time. It is sooo GOOD! | |

Posted: 7/6/2009 5:35:53 AM | | I tried to email you Sweetie52 with a suggestion..If you have a good non stick pan or cast iron skillet you are in business..One of my faves from when I was a boy is comfort food. I had a big family so we had to make ends meet. You need some potatoes, onion, and a can of cornbeef hash. Start your potatoes in a skillet with a little oil to get them crispy and almost done, throw in a onion and let it begin to get good and tender. Now, in your larger pan add your cornbeef and start it to brown, throw in the potatoes and onions and let it simmer for about 30 minutes or until done. I find 4 potatoes, and one good size onion is plenty for one can of cornbeef. Its good, its got protein and carbs, and really keeps well as left overs. Great with picky eaters too. Hotsauce, Ketchup, everything is good on it..Enjoy | |

Posted: 7/6/2009 12:08:14 PM | chicken breast, Fresh Dill, Bacon (Preferably Prosciutto), oil, seasoning (Salt flakes & Fresh ground pepper)
Lay out some saran wrap
Lay out the bacon/Prosciutto on the saran
Lay some fresh Dill on the bacon
Lay the chicken breast on next
Using the saran wrap the bacon round the chicken breast
Lay another piece of saran over the chicken then pound it out so its thinner than it started at.
Oil in the pan, chicken cooked about 3-4 minutes a side, couple minutes a side, boom done like 10 minutes all told.
Bacon wrapped chicken is the TITS! | |

Posted: 7/6/2009 2:24:42 PM | My BBQ Chicken wings in 30 minutes(depending on how much you make)
I did not add heats because I just use high on the stove. I couldn't give exact heats but as long as you know how you want your chicken done you'll be fine
What you need:
Wings: However many you want or need should i say.
Season salt
small Onion
Onion powder or Chili powder: depending on how hot you want them hot being the chili
Barbecue sauce(may need to add a little water depending on how thick you want the sauce):
I prefer to use either a dipping barbecue sauce which come in a glass bottle primarily for coating chicken its sweet and flavorful. Or everyone i cook for's favourite is Chicken barbecue sauce made be "Kraft" blue labeled bottle.
The Method:
Wings in depending on how much you use you should be able to see how the wings are and know how you want them. when they are cooked through and slightly darkened on the outside turn the heat to half (I cook on high you can cook on whatever heat you want but add time if necessary. its better to slightly over cook the chicken than leave it undercooked
Now. Chicken out of the pan into a large pasta bowl you put the Barbecue sauce in. you need to put in enough to cover all the wings so use it sparingly and be safe by making too much than too litte. barbecue sauce will take a 1 to 2 minutes to simmer once. after 1minute add either chilli or onion powder to the wings and stir. use enough to make a light coat on top of the barbecue sauce and mix it. Add a small diced onion to the sauce.
Now take sauce and add to the bowl. just pour all of it in. cover the bowl and shake it. Shake for 30 seconds. open to ensure the sauce has fully engulfed the wings. sprinkle a pinch of seasonsing salt over the entire bowl. Serve

Posted: 7/6/2009 3:09:39 PM | This one can be done in a frying pan, but I usually throw it in the oven...
Chicken breast fillets
1cup rice
2 cups and a bit more water
2 pkg lipton onion soup mix
put all the ingredients in the casserole dish and throw it in the oven at 350 degrees. Come back in 45 minutes or so and enjoy....
For a different flavor....Try a little "Uncle Dans" original dressing mix (made up) drizzled over it...
I know is sounds nasty, and to tell the truth it looks kind of bad too...but ohhhh does it taste good..... | |

| anybody have any recipes of meals done in a frying pan that don't take long and are easy?
Posted: 7/6/2009 4:57:35 PM | Well I will vote that this thread probably has the most annoying CAPPED headline in this section. lol
I think that the OPs last post was about a year ago, so I don't think that she will be back.
Not sure about a best recipe, but I think of stir frys. Basically any vegetable of choice, and some protein. A little sauce and oil and your good to go.

Posted: 7/7/2009 8:27:27 PM | This was a favorite of my kids and a staple of camping trips...
One Pan Dinner
Slice up some potatoes (peeled or not, your choice)
Slice up some onions
Heat up enough oil in the skillet or frypan to coat the bottom of the pan. (I like Olive oil best) ( A big old cast iron skillet is the best of all)
Once the pan is hot, layer the potatoes and onions and brown well over med high heat. (You might want to put a lid on the pan for a few minutes to get the potatoes done inside before they burn on the bottom). Take off the lid and keep cooking until they are all brown and slightly crispy on the bottom.
Add some diced up ham or chipped beef. Stir in . (the little packages of chipped beef or ham were what I took on camping trips)
Sprinkle grated or thinly sliced cheddar cheese on top and cook until the cheese is melted.
