Chicken with Duck Sauce

The simple recipe that has everyone going for seconds.

Food 4 Thought
Eat with health and wellness in mind. Yes, we can enjoy the foods that we eat, but in proper measure and not at the expense of our bodies. As Maimonides, the famous rabbi, philosopher and doctor of 12th century Spain writes, “Bodily health and wellbeing are part of the path to God, for it is impossible to understand or have any knowledge of the Creator when one is sick. Therefore one must avoid anything that may harm the body and one must cultivate healthful habits.” When we choose to eat healthy we are making a statement that our eating is not an end in and of itself, but rather a means to help us to become our best selves and live our greatest lives. Learn more about how to make eating more spiritual.

Even though I make many "gourmet" recipes, this simple one is the biggest hit with guests helping themselves to seconds and calling during the week for the recipe!

Could we please have some recipes that do not rely heavily on processed foods, jars of this or that (which may not be available to all readers), but actually on ingredients, like flour, chicken, spice, etc? Recipe Tin Eats, while not kosher, is a great example of how someone can provide simple recipes, from scratch, for a much lower cost than buying prepared ingredients like Duck Sauce.
