Mushroom & Black Bean Vegetarian Burgers

I saw this recipe on Bon Appetit, it is one of their BA’s Best.  Mushroom & Black Bean Vegetarian Burgers  There are a lot of ingredients in this recipe & I had most of them at home. I did have to substitute some things. Full of vegetables & black beans, this burger is delicious & even a die-hard meat-eater would like these. There isn’t any meat substitute which I like.

Mom’s Yummy Chicken

Yes…that is the name of this recipe…from my moms recipe box…yummy chicken! So the question of course was..Is it yummy? I had to give it a try & it was! ! Simple ingredients which is always good. The original recipe called for chicken pieces & apple juice. I used bone-in chicken thighs & orange juice since I didn’t have any apple juice..the orange juice was leftover from the Glazed Orange Cake. I recommend you give this chicken a try.

Here is the recipe

Mom’s Yummy Chicken

1/4 cup flour

2 tsp salt *** seems like a lot of salt but it isn’t too salty!

1/4 tsp pepper

3-4 pounds chicken pieces ***I used 8 bone-in chicken thighs

4 green onions, chopped

2 Tbsp lemon juice *** I used fresh but my mom used the bottled lemon juice!

1 can of sliced mushrooms, drained

1 tsp sugar

1/3 cup orange juice *** original recipe calls for apple juice

oil

Method

  1. Mix the flour, salt & pepper together in a bowl big enough to coat the chicken pieces in
  2. Dip the chicken in the flour mixture , making sure all of the chicken is coated in the flour
  3. Heat some oil in a frying pan, and brown the chicken pieces on all sides
  4. Transfer the browned chicken to a baking dish
  5. Saute the green onions & sliced mushrooms. Add to the chicken
