- I hope y'all like pesto because
0:03
that's what I'm fixin' to make for y'all.
0:06
This is a great magazine that came out of the,
0:09
I'm gonna spray this a little
0:11
so that seasoning will stick.
0:12
This, oh thank you, thank you.
0:15
This is a recipe from my magazine, Cooking With Paula Deen.
0:20
I think it's just good, so I wanna share it with y'all,
0:26
the ones that don't maybe have my magazine.
0:33
Ya know, that magazine is such a great deal, Eddy.
0:36
Do you know, I think you can get a full year subscription
0:39
for like 19.95.
0:41
Is that, am I correct in thinking that?
0:44
- [Eddy] I'm not sure what the price it.
0:47
- I think, I think that's about what it is but,
0:50
anyway, it's a good deal.
0:52
(can spraying)
0:54
So I've got me a tablespoon of olive oil
0:57
over here in my pan getting hot.
1:01
And now I'm gonna salt and pepper
1:05
the other side of our chicken.
1:09
And we're gonna cook this.
1:12
(oil sizzling)
1:15
Yeah, yeah that's hot.
1:18
We're gonna cook this for a couple of minutes on each side.
1:23
(sizzling)
1:25
Then, it'll get a little bit more cooking later on.
1:30
Whoops.
1:32
That chicken was trying to fly the coop.
1:35
Okay, so like I said, a couple of,
1:40
a couple of um,
1:46
a couple of minutes on either side.
1:49
And this is a nice dish because it has
1:51
all your vegetables and everything in it.
1:55
It's got onions, red bell pepper,
1:59
yellow zucchini, I mean, yellow squash and zucchini,
2:03
and pesto and heavy cream.
2:06
So, it's gonna be a real tasty,
2:12
healthy dish because of the stuff in it,
2:16
ya know what I'm trying to say?
2:18
It's gonna be meaty, a nice and meaty dish.
2:23
I might cut these up with the scissors
2:25
rather than, rather than using a knife on em.
2:33
I'll see.
2:35
(sizzling)
2:39
Okay, we definitely don't wanna overcook these.
2:45
So, that's my garden scissors.
2:48
(laughing)
2:51
(plate clinking)
2:55
Yeah, I'll do it like this if I don't wanna
2:59
mess up my cutting board.
3:02
(sizzling)
3:16
Alrighty.
3:19
I'm gonna go ahead and take those out.
3:24
And now, I'm gonna throw in my onion
3:27
and my bell peppers.
3:30
And I'm just gonna kinda
3:31
cook those until they're transparent.
3:36
Those are sliced nice and thin.
3:40
(sizzling)
3:48
It's gonna be in that chicken,
3:50
that chicken essence that was left in there.
3:55
So, it will be good.
3:57
(sizzling)
4:05
That tint, little white tendon in the tenderloin is,
4:11
you bout can't cut through that, ya know it?
4:24
I like that better than cutting up, messing up with a,
4:31
with my cutting board.
4:35
I don't like putting medium-rare chicken
4:39
or raw chicken, for that matter,
4:40
I just don't like putting that on my cutting board.
4:46
'Cause I wonder if I could ever, you know,
4:49
get it completely
4:52
free of any bacteria.
5:09
May wanna just cut those accordingly
5:11
if you're giving small children this.
5:14
May wanna cut the bites in smaller pieces.
5:21
All right.
5:23
Those are looking good.
5:25
What's the matter, Gus?
5:28
What's the matter, Gussie?
5:31
- [Eddy] Trembling.
5:33
- Well hey Max!
5:35
They get so nervous when it starts getting dark and raining.
5:41
Now I got to wash my hands, buddy.
5:44
Why did I touch you?
5:47
Why did I touch you?
5:51
Because you're irresistible.
5:55
Aren't ya?
5:59
You're irresistible to all of us.
6:03
Okie dokie.
6:09
That looks good.
6:11
You can see it's got a transparent look to it almost.
6:16
You see it, Eddy?
6:20
(metal scraping)
6:23
I am gonna take it up.
6:26
I'm gon' add it to our chicken dish.
6:31
And then, I'm gonna add my zucchini,
6:35
which we'll cook it for three or four minutes.
6:43
There ya go.
6:49
I've got to make some zucchini bread.
6:53
It is so, so good and I've been wanting some
6:57
really bad, Eddy.
6:59
If I make it, would you help me eat it?
7:01
- [Eddy] Oh yeah.
7:05
- Okay.
7:08
There we go.
7:10
I'm gonna salt and pepper this zucchini
7:15
'cause I want it to have a nice, seasoned bite to it.
7:22
A fourth of a cup of pesto and this is just
7:26
a store-bought pesto.
7:28
You can do that or you can make your own.
7:32
It's, pesto is pretty easy to make.
7:34
You just need a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot of basil.
7:40
So I'm just gonna mix that
7:45
pesto into a cup of the heavy cream that we're using.
7:50
And now I'm gonna put our chicken,
7:52
(scraping) back in here.
7:56
Along with our zucchini.
8:00
And our chicken is still kinda
8:06
medium and we don't want that to be medium.
8:10
So, we're gonna let that finish cooking.
8:30
I didn't know if that bowl would hold
8:32
two cups of that heavy cream or not, Eddy, but it did.
8:40
(scraping)
8:44
Okay.
8:47
So now, we're gonna add our creme with our pesto in it.
8:56
And we're gonna cook this until it
8:58
begins to thicken and that should be about five minutes.
9:03
Five minutes should be long enough
9:05
to get that chicken finished being cooked off.
9:18
I think I'm gonna move this over to,
9:25
to a larger eye.
9:29
And now, we've got to put our pasta in.
9:31
Wait Teresa,
9:32
I'm gonna need my tool. - Oh, sorry.
9:33
- [Teresa] There you go!
9:34
- Thank you, thank you.
9:35
- [Teresa] Sorry bout that.
9:37
- All right, I'm gonna need that pasta.
9:40
There we go!
9:51
And we're using a linguine.
10:01
Which is a nice change.
10:02
I'm a angel hair pasta girl.
10:06
I love angel hair with just butter on it.
10:09
Salt and butter.
10:13
All right, we're fixing to run out of skillet.
10:15
(laughing)
10:18
Fixing to run out of skillet.
10:23
- [Teresa] Wondering when that was gonna happen.
10:25
- Yeah.
10:26
(laughs)
10:35
Okay, looks good, doesn't it?
10:36
I don't think I'm gonna add anymore pasta
10:39
because I want it to be, I want it to be hearty
10:43
with the vegetables and the chicken.
10:48
So, I don't want it so heavy with pasta that
10:53
you feel like you're just eating a bowl of pasta.
10:59
All right, now I'm gonna sample this and,
11:12
the pasta's nice.
11:13
I meant the pesto is nice.
11:15
It's just on the light side.
11:18
But it definitely needed--
11:20
- [Teresa] More salt and pepper?
11:22
- Yes.
11:26
And of course, that's just,
11:29
a personal preference.
11:32
You know, it's funny, even though Michael is married to me,
11:37
I don't think I've ever seen him pick up the salt shaker.
11:41
- [Teresa] I don't salt a lot but my mom did the salt.
11:43
- That pepper, honey,
11:45
his food is black!
11:48
When he gets that pepper in his hands.
11:55
Okay.
12:01
Come on baby, do your thang.
12:05
Do your thang!
12:08
That pasta is gon' continue to soak up our cream
12:13
but I'm gonna serve it in this pan.
12:17
And I did the recipe exactly but I'm doing
12:22
one more thing to it.
12:25
And that's adding some parmesan cheese.
12:29
Because I think it'll be delicious with the pesto
12:36
and the pasta.
12:39
So, there we go.
12:39
I'm gon' call em to dinner and that's it.
12:46
I did slip a little butter in there
12:48
when I was cooking those vegetables, y'all.
12:50
(laughs)
12:51
All right, I've decided to do one other thing, y'all
12:54
and that's just, I'm gonna add a little paprika,
12:59
just for color.
13:02
Makes it look a little more colorful.
13:05
How's that?
13:06
Don't have to do that at all if you don't want to.
13:09
I think I can dig a little bit out.
13:19
You know, just, oh gosh.
13:22
Just some french bread.
13:27
Maybe a salad but, you know, this has got
13:29
your vegetables in it, so I don't even think
13:32
we need a salad.
13:34
Just french bread for dipping in that white sauce.
13:42
Mm, that pesto is so good, Teresa.
13:45
- [Teresa] It is good.
13:47
It's refreshing.
13:47
- It's refreshing.
13:50
It's earthy.
13:51
- [Teresa] It is earthy.
13:53
- Earthy.
13:58
- [Teresa] That's one thing we need to make.
13:59
We need to make homemade pesto one day.
14:01
- Mmhm.
14:02
It's so easy.
14:05
- [Teresa] I have tons of basil.
14:07
- Do ya?
14:08
- [Teresa] Oh yeah.
14:10
- So, this is delicious.
14:12
I hope y'all try it.
14:14
'Cause it's really good and relatively inexpensive.
14:21
Mm.
14:25
The chicken is wonderful and tender
14:28
because we didn't overcook it.
14:34
So y'all have a blessed day and I'll see y'all next time.
