- I'm starting my supper early tonight, y'all,
0:07
I really don't know Michael's schedule,
0:09
and I don't know how much time he'll give me to get him fed,
0:12
so I thought, "Well, you know,
0:14
let's just go ahead and film what I'm doing for supper."
0:20
And it is a recipe that I have had so much feedback on.
0:28
It's called Chicken Georgia.
0:31
And I'm melting some butter.
0:35
This is one of those easy dishes,
0:37
and all I have to do is, when he says he's ready to eat,
0:41
I pop this in the oven and have it hot again in no time.
0:48
an eight-ounce package,
0:49
I think it was a eight ounce, the smaller package,
1:02
What kinda mushrooms did I get today?
1:05
- No, I don't think they're shiitake.
1:13
oh my gosh, they're the kind that's so-
1:15
- Portobella? - Portobella, yeah.
1:17
To me, a portobella is so meaty.
1:22
If you've never had a portobella sandwich,
1:26
you feel like you're eating a solid piece of protein.
1:31
So good with mozzarella cheese and lettuce and tomato.
1:37
So, that's what I opted to get for our dinner tonight.
1:43
And here, I have shallots,
1:48
wonderful shallots that are minced up very fine,
1:52
ooh, and the aroma of that, y'all, is crazy!
1:58
So, I'm gonna cook these just for a few minutes.
2:02
This is a one-pot meal.
2:07
You can serve this with rice or pasta.
2:12
Whatever starch you feel like you're hungry for.
2:16
But you would not believe the feedback, y'all,
2:20
I have gotten over the years on this recipe,
2:24
because it was in my very, very first cookbook,
2:33
so people have loved it for many, many years,
2:38
and I don't think I've ever made this on a video.
2:43
I don't recall making it when I was on national TV.
2:47
I don't remember doing it then,
2:49
and I know I hadn't done it for "Quarantine Cooking,"
2:58
So, we just gonna cook our mushrooms and our shallot,
3:06
a little bit of salt,
3:11
and some crushed black pepper.
3:19
With my handy dandy crusher that I love so much!
3:25
So, we just gonna let that cook for a few minutes.
3:28
Okay, our mushrooms and our scallions
3:31
are just the way I want 'em.
3:33
All right, now I'm gonna put the other half
3:36
of my half a stick of butter in my pan.
3:39
I'm gonna just set those to the side,
3:49
I'm gonna take my chicken pieces,
3:53
and I'm using the newest line of my cookware,
3:58
which I like it so, so much.
4:01
So, I mean it's heavy, it's heavy,
4:05
but I love the color.
4:08
It reminds me of the old medicine bottles.
4:13
You know, they were a dark blue?
4:19
the chemist's medicine wouldn't go bad.
4:23
Kept it out of the light.
4:30
put our chicken in our pan.
4:44
You'll wanna cook your chicken about 10 minutes per side
4:51
over, like, a medium heat.
4:54
You know, not scorching hot.
4:59
So, that center seems to be
5:01
the lowest point of heat contact,
5:04
so I'm gonna swap that piece out.
5:10
And I'm gonna cook it for another 10 minutes on that side.
5:13
I just tested my chicken,
5:16
and it checked at a perfect 165,
5:22
which is what chicken should be.
5:24
All right, now, in the recipe,
5:26
it'll tell you to transfer this to a platter,
5:33
I like serving this particular dish
5:36
in the pan that it was cooked in,
5:38
so what we're gonna do now is top our chicken
5:42
with that wonderful portobella mushroom and,
5:52
and shallot that we had chopped up real good.
5:56
So, as I was saying, it tells you in the recipe
5:59
to transfer this to a platter,
6:01
top it with your shiitake and shallots,
6:04
and then put about four ounces
6:08
of mozzarella grated cheese on it.
6:12
The recipe will tell you to cover this
6:15
and let it sit until the cheese melts,
6:19
so that's what I'm gonna do.
6:20
But dinner was just that easy, y'all.
6:26
no foo-foo, no uppity flavors.
6:30
Just everything good that our tummy loves.
6:36
And I've got a little while before dinner,
6:40
so I can throw this into the oven
6:42
or back on top of the stove and reheat it,
6:44
And in the meantime, I'll decide,
6:46
do I want pasta or do I want rice?
6:51
Whichever I choose, this will be delicious.
6:54
So, I'm so thankful that y'all remind me
6:57
when I go out there and get to spend time with y'all
7:01
and meet y'all at book signings
7:08
what recipes that you love that belong to me,
7:12
so thank y'all for doing that.
7:15
I think you'll like it.
7:17
I told y'all this is for dinner tonight,
7:20
so I've managed to slice off just a little bite.
7:31
(Paula faintly speaks)
7:33
Excuse me. I'm talking with a delicious mouthful.
7:39
I always like to make sure the dish is perfect
7:44
for whomever's gonna be eating it,
7:45
so Michael will never know I cut off a little bite.
7:50
Didn't I do a good job of covering it back up, Eddie?
7:53
Didn't I? (laughs) - Mm.
7:57
- See you later, baby.
8:00
Love and best dishes.
