    Rice and Sausage Stuffed Chicken Breast

    Rice and Sausage Stuffed Chicken Breast

    This is possibly one of the yummiest chicken recipes ever. There’s something about Jimmy Dean sausage…mmm tasty. This is simple.

    The Number Nine


    A great use for some Famous Ricco Chicken Cutlets is a sandwich we fondly call the Number Nine. It’s basically a chicken Cordon Bleu Sandwich. One of my best friends and I used to get these and skip afternoon class to go watch soccer games from the town deli. They are very simple, and way [...]

    Roasted garlic has a much mellower flavor as most of the pungency is roasted away. It is also transformed into a butter-like paste. You just squirt it out [...]
