C5 - Wednesday, December 21, 1983 - North Shore News THE SENIOR MEN had their last class of the fall semester on Fri- day the ninth, and to mark how far they had come, they boned chicken breasts and prepared a delicious dish therefrom. The lesson in boning is almost as much of an Everest to them as the lesson in white sauce, I think. You probably know, but any one of them would love to show you how you lay the breast cavity-side up, and how you use a sharp knife or a blunt instrument to break the top centre of the breast- bone. Once broken, you can then get your forefinger down behind it and pull down and forward, using all your strength to extract it. If you’re lucky, the long lower cartilage will follow in one piece. If it doesn't, not to WOrry, just work at it with the forefinger and ease it out. Don’t discard any of this boney structure, of course — we'll make stock out of it, later. Now lay into the working with flat ribs, spread fingers to separate them from the breast flesh. One of those long, skinny boning-knives is useful here, letting you scrape the ribs away from the meat, but | have found that in the hands of amateurs the knife helps to waste more than it saves. The fingers are really the most effective tool as you push and force until you have a bone-free piece of meat. Before claiming vic- tory, pat the flesh all over — one often encounters a tiny shaft or two of slender wishbone which must be extracted. When the men saw their handiwork they were very im- pressed. ‘‘Look what | did!’’ To finish the dish, called simply Stuffed Chicken Breasts, they first cut the : breasts in two, then lay all - between sheets of waxed paper and bashed and filat- tened them with a rolling-pin. Top paper discarded, they took turns creaming some margarine, and blended into it chopped parsley, oregano and some lemon pepper. How much? Well, they had 12 half-breasts, for which they used Y. cup Margarine (i25mL) l tspn. of oregano (5mL) 2 Tospns. of parsley (30mL) You might enjoy a little inyme, a rub of rosemary” This herbed mixture was spread all over the inside of the breasts, and on top went a thin slice of Monterey Jack the kitchen ranger by Eleanor Godley cheese, though you could use any mild cheese such as Havarti, or Gruyere, Edam or German Beer cheese.

They didn’t need toothpicks for any of them. Each bundle was dipped into flour, then into lightly-beaten egg, and finally into fine dry bread crumbs. All were browned in hot margarine in an electric frying pan, carefully turned with two big spoons, then they were arranged in a bak- ing dish so that the fat in the pan could become a wine sauce. Flour was added to make a ‘‘roux’’, then wine poured in, stirring going on all the time, until the con- sistency was declared correct. A little cream to gentile the flavor, a little pepper and parsley, then all over the browned chicken and the pan into the oven (375°F) for half an hour. With a bowl of oven rice, and julienned carrots a orange, it was a fitting salute to graduation. | Correction | In the Sunday, December 18 edition recipe for Magic Irish Cream Liqueur, the chocolate syrup should have read 15 mi (1 Tbsp), NOT (1 cup).
