The wifey works alot of night shifts and I need some quick and easy recipes for seasoning chicken and beef.
Will appreciate any cooking tips...even the fake/sarcastic ones

STEAK = THE EASIEST: ... oil, salt and pepper A GUSTO PERSONAL... then pre-heat a pan, 2 minutes on one side, 1 minute on the other side... READY!!! Unless you like your steak well done and love the taste of cardboard - in that case, stick it in a preheated oven (350-400 celcuus) for another 5-10 minutes depending how well done you like!

Cheers!

Quick question guys. How do you know what amount of salt to add to chicken?
Like for if I have like 4 pieces of chicken do I add 1 tablespoon, teaspoon or more of salt.
I tried my luck making chicken for myself yesterday and I didn't put enough and it was gross. I had 4 pieces(2 drumsticks and breasts) and added 1 teaspoon. What's the correct amount?

For one Orale hates salt he wont cook with salt!!! but i do it this way take ur shaker and had two shakes to every piece that u have! i have yet to over salt my food!!!

That's sound easy. I'll give it a shot.

Best seasonings I find for chicken are lemon, lemon pepper, and garlic salt. For beef onion and garlic salt. Whether you are frying, baking, grilling, etc., these give really good flavour. Oh, and I cant forget Azafran and Achiote. Those give flavor and colour.

Those are seasonings that are a must have!!

@ Jaime - I really don't cook by measuring with tablespoon etc.. I just usually go by what i think is enough! If you are boiling the chicken....after you add the salt, try tasting the water and see if it's salty or if you don't taste the salt, try adding some more!

Buy some chicken legs, season it with salt and pepper then add mayo and BBQ sauce. Once you've done that, put it in the oven. That's quick and tastes good.

Also, you can buy chicken breats and bread it. Put it in a baking pan and pour some tomato sauce and put mozzarella cheese on top of it. Once that's done, put it in the oven

here the recipe for the best pork chops youll ever have...

first wash the pork loin chop with lemon to get all the slimyness off of it

then add a touch of extra virgin olive oil

add meat tenderiser and let stand for about 8-10 minutes

then add montreal steak spice (powder form-looks kinda like pepper)

sprinkle on some rosemary, oregano, basil, garlic (powder form)

let stand for 5 minutes

add a touch of extra virgin olive oil in the pan and fry to perfection turning quite often

...let me know how that goes

I looooove cooking... didn't get into it until I got married, but now I just love it.

For quick and easy recipes, I used to buy soups (anything, you know those campbell soups and chowders?). You just so-fry beef or chicken or whatever with salt/pepper/vegetables like green peppers, onions, garlic) and then let it simmer in any of these soups for a bit until the meat is tender and voila! As time went by, I started experimenting with adding vegetables and things, but that's how I started.

Hope that helps.

Ya I love soups with beef. I used to add hamburger to the chinese beef soups

Sound gross

, but it tastes really good.

Para mi no hay nada mas sencillo que preparar pollo al Horno.
Ingredientes:
-1 pollo
-2 cebollas
-Especias varias (yo uso oregano, comino y pimienta).
-Aceite
-Un horno.

Preparacion

1-Cortas el pollo en presas, si es que no viene previamente cortado.
2- Pelas las cebollas y las cortas en 4 (como gajos) y las separas.
3- en una bandeja de vidrio o metal, pones aceite aprox 1 cucharada.
3.1-Prendes el horno a 400 grados.
4-Pones el pollo e intercalas las cebollas, pueden quedar sobre el pollo.
5-Agregas los condimentos y lo pones al horno. 400 grados.
6-Luego de aprox 15 minutos, puedes dar vuelta las presas de pollo para que se doren por la parte de abajo.
7-Esto es estimado pero aprox a los 25 minutos desde que lo pusiste al horno deberia estar listo.

Con el tiempo depuraras la tecnica, es super sencillo.
buen apetito

You like seasoning your beef eh?

Ok, seriously, it's simple and sounds but this is the easiest marinade and tastes pretty good:
Itallian dressing.

You can also buy sauces in jars at the store like butter chicken or korma which taste really good and you just add a minor ingredient like cream or water in the pot and you're done.

Thanks man
I'll try that tonight because I do have Italian dressing at home right now.
