My Favourite Stuffings
This is one of my favourite stuffings for chicken. I hope it will appeal to you.
Please always assemble all ingredients before you start
Heat the olive oil in a heavy based pan over medium high heat and add the onions. Cook for 5 minutes or until soft.
Add the mushrooms,
and cook on high heat for 7 minutes or until well browned.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes, rice, tomato paste
and chicken stock. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and, simmer, covered, 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and stir in grated apple. .
The rice will not be fully cooked at this stage but it’s okay because it will continue cooking in the roast chicken
Use this to stuff a 1.6 kg chicken (3½ Ib)

Have missed your posts and I’ve been away cruising….trying to catch up with emails etc. I have never thought to stuff a bird with a rice based stuffing! It looks interesting and fairly easy to do. You always amaze me Liz! How have things been going for you this past summer?
Summer was so good. Ate lots of cake and did nothing on blogging. Now life is more quite and weather more pleasant so back to work and blogging. One of these fine days, I will be out on a cruise too. Have a lovely week Sandy. It’s great to see you again.

Please give me a feedback and pleasant week to you!
