Pepperoni Bubble Bread

Pepperoni Bubble Bread

1 can Pillsbury Grands! Biscuits
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup sliced pepperoni
1 Tsp dried oregano (or 1 Tbsp fresh minced oregano)
1/2 tsp minced roasted garlic
1 cup shredded mozzarella or Italian blend cheese

Preheat the oven to 350^F.  Spray a 9-inch loaf pan well with cooking spray.

Quarter the biscuits and put them in a large bowl.  Add the remaining ingredient, reserving 1/4 cup cheese for later, and toss to coat each biscuit piece with the oil and seasonings.  Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan and sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese.

Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling on top.  Remove from the oven and use a knife to loosed the edges from the pan, then invert onto a serving platter.

Serve warm.

Yum!!  Adapted from a recipe found on Pinterest.


Bourbon Crack Chicken

Bourbon Crack Chicken

2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp evoo
1 tsp minced roasted garlic
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp cayenne
2 Tbsp applesauce
1/4 cup bourbon or whiskey
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 Tbsp catsup
1 Tbsp cider vinegar
1/3 cup lite soy sauce
1/2 cup water   (omit water if using previously frozen chicken!)
2-3 lbs chicken tenders, thawed

Combine everything except the chicken in a small bowl and whisk until well mixed.  Put the chicken in the crockpot and pour the sauce over, coating the chicken well.  Cover and cook for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.  Serve over rice.

Adapted from a recipe found on Pinterest.  This was delicious, but, even though my chicken was thawed, water still cooked out of it and diluted the sauce too much (in my opinion).  I will make this again, but I won't add the 1/2 cup water!
