    • 1/4 cup organic honey
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (organic, gluten free)
    • 3 organic garlic cloves finely chopped

Directions

Mix the hoisin sauce honey soy sauce garlic and ginger in a large bowl to blend. Set the marinade aside. Using a sharp knife score the chicken all over. Add the chicken to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour but preferably overnight.

Position your oven rack 8 to 10 inches from the heating source and preheat the broiler. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Transfer the chicken and marinade to the baking sheet and broil for 15 minutes turning often and watching closely or until the chicken is cooked through and the marinade glazes the chicken.

Transfer the chicken to plates. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve.

RECIPE: Chicken & Mushroom Dumplings with Steamed Bok Choy

By on Aug 30, 2010 in Recipes | comments(0)

Linda’s comments:  I have not tried this recipe yet, but it looks yummy and very healthy.  Don’t be afraid of finding gluten free.  Your recipes can become so tasty that you won’t want to go back to the GMO and processed foods.  PLUS, the time it takes to good healthy is well worth that few extra minutes of preparation.

Ingridents:

  •  
    • 10 ounces ground organic  chicken
    • 6 medium dried shiitake mushrooms (hard to find organic)
    • 2 teaspoons minced organic ginger
    • 2 tablespoons minced cilantro (I have never been able to find organic cilantro)
    • 2 tablespoons gluten free organic soy sauce
    • 2 teaspoons organic gluten free flour, for thickening
    • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 24 egg roll wrappers
    • 8 cups organic chicken broth
    • 3 tablespoons gluten free organic soy sauce
    • 2 inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and smashed
    • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
    • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
    • 4 baby bok choy, washed and quartered
    • 4 organic scallion, finely sliced

Directions

To reconstitute the shiitakes, pour boiling water over the mushrooms and let sit for 10 minutes. Squeeze excess moisture and then dice. Combine ground chicken, diced mushrooms, ginger, cilantro, soy, organic gluten free flour, and kosher salt in a mixing bowl.

Using a 3-inch circle cookie cutter, punch out approximately 24 x 3-inch rounds from the egg roll wrappers. Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of each round. Dip your finger into water and lightly wet the edges of the wrapper. Fold each wrapper in half, making sure to push out any excess air and pinch the edges to seal the dumpling.

To make the soup, simmer chicken stock, soy, sesame oil and ginger for 10-12 minutes. Bring the soup to a boil and add dumplings. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 5 minutes, add bok choy and continue to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until dumplings are cooked through and the bok choy is tender. Serve in bowls garnish with chopped scallions.
