so easy to make your own baked chicken and tastes better.

Posted By: even better on 2006-03-15
In Reply to: Chicken fettuccine alfredo...why didn't anyone tell me - years ago that it was this easy!

Just wash a whole chicken (clean inside, as well) Then salt inside.

Put it breast-side DOWN on small baking rack in shallow baking sheet (I line the pan with foil first), bake at 350 for 30 minute, then turn the bird over onto its back (drain the cavity when you turn it over, put those droppings in the bottom of the cookie sheet). Bake for another hour, turn over (and drain cavity again) for 15-30 minutes, and then turn back on its back for a little longer. I do put some foil over the bird for the first hour or so just to save splatters on the oven. With whole chicken at 69 cents a pound, you just cannot get an cheaper, easier meal than this.

Easy chicken pot pie. A favorite. Recipe below

This is tooooooooooo easy.


Preheat oven to 350.


You will need:


1 box of 2 prepared pie crusts.


Chicken for stir fry


1 can cream of chicken soup


1 box or half of a small bag of frozen mixed vegetables.


Take one box of prepared pie crust out of the refrigerator and throw it on the counter.


Put the stir fry chicken strips in the oven for 20 minutes on 350 then turn the oven up to 425 after taking the cooked chicken out.


Cut up the chicken and put it in a mixing bowl, add the soup and frozen vegetables and stir it up. 


Throw one crust in the bottom of a pie plate, dump the chicken mix in, put the top crust on, pinch together and cover the edges with foil.


Cook 20 minutes with foil, remove foil and cook 20 more minutes.


TA DA!


Chicken In Wine Sauce (Easy and Quick)
Melt about 6 TBLSP butter in skillet.  Sprinkle boneless, skinless chicken breasts with garlic salt and any other seasonings that you like, dust in flour and brown in butter for about 5 minutes or so, just till a little brown (to your liking).  Put together 1/2 cup white cooking wine, 2 teaspoons roasted chopped garlic (I buy it already chopped), 2 TBLSP lemon juice (I use bottled Real Lemon), and 2 TBLSP dried parsley.  Fresh is good too but I just never have it around.  Dump this on the chicken in the skillet and put a lid on it and simmer for 6 minutes.  Throw a bag of precooked microwave rice in the microwave, plop some on the plate, put the chicken on top and spoon some sauce over it.  Very tasty and ready in less than 30 minutes.  My kind of dinner !!! If you use more than about 4 pieces of chicken breast increase the butter to 8 TBLSP.  I am sure that Parkay (or whatever) would work just as well but I use butter and be done with it.  I usually have broccoli or some other green veggie and a salad with it.  I use my Breadman a lot so I usually have hot rolls as well.

We make it look easy

The reason so many people think it is such a glamorous job is because those of us who have been doing it for years make it look so easy.  We can sit in front of our computer (at home) and breeze along through the toughest ESL dictators without picking up a book.  Why wouldn't everything thing they could do this.


Reality will show your friend that there is a lot more to being an MT than just typing.  I think back to the days before internet when I had to use a book to look up every difficult or new word.  Very time consuming.  At least new MTs have internet resources.

Easy mistake to make! (nm)
nm
Repetitive = easy, so no, they usually don't make more.
But there are exceptions to every rule, of course. As was stated in another post on radiology, the software is usually maddeningly inefficient, so sometimes it is hard to find and retain MTs for certain facilities. But the reason the software is bad for MTs is that they usually bought it with the hope they could change over to VR, thereby putting most of the MTs out of work. Radiology can be fun if you find a place where you can work in-house, have the skills to win the respect of the radiologists and learn to be able to read their minds, which helps you a lot when they misspeak.
It is NOT an easy way to make money
and most companies advertising at-home training and promising the moon are out for your money. Medical transcription is a CAREER and not a JOB. Stick with engineering and do some crafting on the side to make "extra money."
You make it sound so easy, BUT
I believe medical editing is more difficult than straight transcribing, especially if the MT lack years of experience. If the VR text indicates an incorrect term but it looks and sounds close to the accurate term, it would be very easy for an inexperienced MT to not realize that mistake and not make the proper correction. I only hope the physicians are reading their reports. Unfortunately, many of them do not because of time constraints.

With my 20+ years' experience,I do foresee potential problems with VR in the hands of inexperienced MTs. Unfortunately, many MTs will lack the necessary editing skills to acquire a 100% accuracy rate. They have mainly been taught to transcribe verbatim.

We will have to wait and see if any major issues present themselves with VR. I think it could be a very efficient system, but I do not believe the job of editing should not be taken too lightly. I think editing VR text could be easier if you are simply editing for a few physicians, but not for a multitude of dictators in the hospital setting.
Poll: Please yes or no, don't explain, make it easy.

kettle corn is great, easy to make, and you can spice it up...
and there are pretzels, potato chips, veggie chips. you can quickly roast any kind of nut and spice or sweeten them up. I use sucranat for sugar, or turbanado, anything not bleached.

yummy fruit, fresh or frozen.

lots of things you can do...
Me, too. Tastes even better if it's a hazelnut mixture. :) nm

That chicken looks good, too! Fried chicken is the one thing
I'm terrible at making. I just can't do it. Whenever we do have fried chicken maybe once a year, I buy the frozen boxed stuff or KFC.

I haven't thought about dinner yet. I'm making muffins today, spiced applesauce muffins, Tabor City yam bread muffins, and banana zucchini muffins. Going to send some to work with hubby and freeze the rest for breakfasts.

It just tastes like the Poland Spring water sm

I buy decaf and caffeinated, and mix one scoop of each. It tastes really good too! nm

Then that is BAKED, not FRIED
if you were having baked chicken, I think you would have said that to begin with.
I give sweets and baked goods.....sm

I DO give baked goods/sweets about 4 times a year to my private MD offices.  However, I NEVER score an account that way.   I go in with myself and sell myself and not with any baked goods.  *lol*

Well, Word is easy to buy and easy to install. Word 97 works great. Cheap. SM
I still would not work anywhere I could not use a spell checker with grammar checker and a Steadman's Medical Spell Checker.

IF they want people to TRANSCRIBE MEDICAL REPORTS, then I guess they better get the programs they need.

It's like probably 110% easier to buy and install Word 97 than to try to program their own programming. And, yes, I do mean Microsoft Word 97. Why? Because you can install it unlimited times, in case you need to install the operating system again. And it has a few features that Microsoft, in its un-wisdom, took away in Word 2000 and 20003 and 2007. So, yes, I'd go with Word 97 for its cheapness and it works better than the later versions. Just my opinion, with 20 years experience being an MT. So what if they "don't have it" on their computer? It's easy to get.
Easy easy money they are!

I don't mind seeing those puppies filter in at all.  Same for H&Ps.  They are always different though, so can't really pop in the same pre-formatted autotext, but it's usually WHAMMO 2-3 pages at a time.  Give them a shot...you may just be pleasantly surprised! 



I think I smell either VR on the easy stuff, or offshoring of the easy stuff.

Poor child, I had the same; I couldn't swallow - even my saliva hurt going down.
As I recall, that lasted about 3-4 days.

Whole chicken. sm.
I like to bake mine whole too.  I put a full can of beer inside the cavity (up its butt sorta speaking), but then I cook it in one of those Reynold's cooking bags about 20 minutes per pound.  It falls off the bone.  Sometimes they have specials where I live where you can get them for only 29 and 39 cents a pound. I buy 3 or 4 then.
I have a chicken dog too :)
My dalmation is so afraid of storms.  She tries to crawl under my desk when it thunders and just shakes.  If I pet her for a while she will calm down.  The other day we had a storm and I was doing dishes and she tried to crawl under my kitchen sink, knocking everything out.  She also hates the vacuum and the hose.  I don't know that I would give her medication.  That may be more trying for her than the occasional storm.  Maybe letting her in your office might help if you see it is going to storm.  A few treats never hurt either!
