This sandwich is a lot like the ranch chicken BLT from McDonald’s restaurant. If you are not familiar with this sandwich, it is fried chicken topped with bacon, lettuce, tomato and ranch dressing. I honestly do not eat at McDonald’s much but this is one of my favorite sandwiches when I do. For frying the chicken you can use a deep-pot or a deep-fryer. For the best results I would recommend using a deep-fryer if you have one. If you end up with thick chicken breasts, you could just cut one in half instead of using four. You can use your favorite brand of bottled ranch for this recipe. Enjoy.

I always enjoy a delicious recipe for pork chops with gravy. This recipe consists of breaded, fried pork chops that are topped with mushroom gravy. The pork chops are dipped in egg and then rolled in a seasoned flour mixture and then fried in the pan. I deiced to double bread the pork chops. The mushroom gravy is prepared in the same skillet and uses ingredients such as chicken broth and milk. I like to use boneless pork chops that are thin cut for this recipe. You can also use boneless skinless chicken breasts instead of pork if you would prefer. If you are using chicken breasts you will want to make sure the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F. when they are finished cooking. You can serve this recipe with mashed potatoes. Enjoy.

For the carrots, I used a cheese grater to shred them but you could also use a knife and slice them into very thin strips. For the best results, you will want to allow the coleslaw to be refrigerated for several hours or overnight to allow the flavor to develop before serving. This coleslaw makes a great side-dish.

Teriyaki sauce is mixed with spaghetti noodles and sliced steak in this delicious recipe for teriyaki noodles. I always enjoy the flavor of mixing Asian sauces with pasta. You can use different types of noodles for this recipe if you would prefer—lo mein or chow mein noodles would be a good option as well. The noodles are cooked on the stovetop and the steak is sliced and stir-fried in a wok with garlic and ginger. I like to serve these noodles with egg rolls. Enjoy.

This is a copycat recipe for the chicken nuggets from Chick-fil-A restaurant. Unfortunately, living in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, we do not have a Chick-fil-A around here so I cannot comment on how close this recipe is to the actual dish. The chicken is first marinated in a mixture of dill pickle juice and milk, then dipped in egg and milk and then breaded in a flour mixture. The chicken nuggets can be cooked in the pan or fried in the deep-fryer. They are served with a homemade honey mustard sauce which is a combination of mayonnaise, yellow mustard, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Enjoy.
