CHICKEN RICE
CASSEROLE
(Meat)
"This recipe has four
ingredients, but the
onion soup mix adds
lots of flavor;' writes
Bubbe. "It's great if you
are just learning how to
cook."
1 fryer chicken (about 3 1/2-4 lbs.)
1 cup rice
1 package onion-soup mix
1 tsp. parve margarine
Rinse the chicken pieces. Place
them in a large bowl, and pour
boiling water over them. Then
rinse with cold water, and pluck the
pin feathers from the wings and
drumsticks with tweezers.
Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Grease a 10- x 7-inch casserole
dish.
Cook the rice according to the
instructions on the back of the box.
Spoon the rice into the casserole
dish, and dot it with the margarine.
Spread the onion soup mix on a
plate. Roll the chicken pieces in the
soup mix, and place them on top of
the rice, skin-side up. Sprinkle any
onion-soup mix that didn't stick to
the chicken over the top. Cover the
casserole with aluminum foil, and
bake for 50-60 minutes. II

kosher cooks, Feed
Me Bubbe: Recipes
and Wisdom
From America's
Favorite Online
Grandmother
(Running Press, paperback, $16) by
Avrom Honig and Bubbe includes
100 of Bubbe's best recipes from her
popular online and televised kosher
cooking show of the same name.
Recipes range from breakfast to
dessert and everything in between,
each including symbols to indicate
if the dish contains dairy, meat or is
parve. Bubbe intertwines the recipes
with stories from her life, grand-
motherly wisdom and informa-
tive notes and detailed directions.
Concerned about her cholesterol,
she also suggests healthy substitu-
tions for ingredients.
The cookbook is a recent recipi-
ent of a Mom's Choice Gold Award
for being among the best in family-
friendly media, products and services.
Born in 1926 in a small town
in New England, Bubbe began her
career as a food writer and host of
her online cooking show at age 80.
It can be seen on JLTV and at ww -w.
