THEME RECIPE

Country Western Spicy Grilled Chicken and Potatoes. Chicken and potatoes I have always found to be a great combination but when adding spice to it, as this Country. Western Spicy Grilled Chicken and Potatoes dish does is a wonderful thing to make. This was very much applauded by my in laws and you should try it as well and see how your family loves it.
Ingredients for four:
Chicken for four
Potatoes for four
Spices: Mild chili, salt and pepper, parsley, ginger...
Water
Oil of your choice (I use chili and olive oil..)
What I do is take enough chicken with skin on, to feed 4 appetites.
Boil it for 10-15 minutes.
Allow to cool a little, then dust it with spices:
Spice Mix: 2 tspns MILD chili
1 tspn pepper
half tspn salt
2 tspns parsley
half tspn ginger
Have the oven pre-heated to a moderate temperature
On a lightly greased oven tray, lay the chicken pieces skin side up.
The boiling process takes most of the fat from the chicken, and leaves
you with a nice stock that you can freeze for later use.
The baking will also give off a little fat, and you should baste the
chicken with this to keep it moist. You basically cook the chicken
in the oven for around 15-20 mins from this point.
At the same time, I will have prepared potatoes to go into the oven with
the chook. (More instructions follow in the taties recipe)
Sliced and spicy potaties
Enough potatoes for 4 persons, and then 2 for luck.
Scrub but don't peel. Slice thickly, approx half inch thick. Lay onto
the oven tray, but make sure both sides have a little grease on them
otherwise they will stick to the tray. You may need to add a little more
oil (I use chili oil, but that may be a little hot for The Parents).
Keep an eye on these little suckers, as they will cook pretty quickly.
The idea is that they will bubble up towards the end, and you will
need to turn them over to get them all toasty on the other side as well.
Sprinkle the potatoes and the chicken (make sure you turn them over
at some stage in the cooking as well, but they should end up skin side up
to make sure the skin doesn't get soggy) with the spice mix throughout
the cooking time, to get the flavour through.
In the meantime, prepare a simple tossed salad with a simple
dressing so as not to compete with the flavour of the chook.
Serve with the salad and a good Turkish bread (one of the ones
that you rip apart, or a crusty one if you want something a little
more elegant
Country Western Spicy Grilled Chicken and Potatoes makes your tummy full as well as a very satisfied feeling, I want to share this recipe because it has worked for me so much that I think everyone should look into it and perhaps I can make someone happy with this recipe.

A Country Western themed menu is perfect for almost any type of party. Perfect for a great Sunday afternoon, try these country western menu options for your next after lazy afternoon party.
Select a terrific appetizer for a country western party like pigs in a blanket. There are many varieties of pigs in a blanket – you can wrap hot dogs in heat and eat croissants, or make a mixture of meat and onions to wrap in cabbage leaves. After guests devour the pigs in a blanket, sit down with a main course of slow cooked barbeque ribs and sour cream corn bread. Finish the meal off with sweet strawberry shortcake. Of course it wouldn’t be a country western party without the guests’ favorite beer to sip on.
To create the sour cream corn bread for the country western party start with 1 1/2 cups cornmeal, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1 scant teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 cup sour cream, 1 can (approx. 15 ounces) cream-style corn, 3 eggs, and 6 tablespoons butter, melted. Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together the remaining ingredients. Combine mixtures, stirring until all ingredients are moistened. Spread in a greased and floured 9-inch baking pan. Bake at 375° for 35 to 40 minutes.
