Chicken with gravy

August 16, 2007

August 13th chronicle…

Budgeting for meals is so easy. Normally takes me a few minutes to finish if I base it from my existing marketing list.

But sometimes you get feed up with the usual menu. So think, think, think. No idea comes in mind and I’m scheduled to go to the supermarket that day. So I resorted to scan the recipe book ones and for all. Quickly running my fingers through each page, looking for something healthy and easy to prepare. And voila! Look what I got.

Chicken with Gravy (good for 4 to 5 servings)

Recipe

1 kilo chicken
1 onion finely chopped
1/2 tsp. ground pepper
1 tbsp. salt

Cut chicken into serving pieces, place in pan. Put pepper and salt. Add water enough to cover chicken.
Cook until tender. You may want to cook it on a pan or using microwave.
Drain, set aside broth.

Cook the following garnishings in chicken broth:

1/4 kilo cabbage (cut into half)
2 potatoes (cut into half)
8-10 pcs. stringbeans
1 carrot (cut into thick strips)

Cabbage and stringbeans should be half-cooked. Arrange vegetables in dish with the chicken. Top with gravy.

Gravy

2 tbsp. butter
2 tsbp. flour
1 1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/4 tsp. ground pepper
salt to taste
