KITTENCAL'S ITALIAN MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Shape into small meatballs (at this point you can place on a jelly-roll/baking sheet and freeze to use later, or cover with plastic wrap refrigerate up to 24 hours before using).
• Drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce, do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs.
• Continue cooking in the simmering sauce for another 20 minutes (depending on how fast your sauce is simmering 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs).
• After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
• **note** you may also bake the meatballs at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cooked through.

KITTENCAL'S FAMOUS COLESLAW

Steps:

• In a food processor chop the cabbage into small pieces (should look like about the size of confetti) or shred the cabbage.
• Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• With a fine shredder, shred the peeled carrots; add to the cabbage in the bowl.
• Chop the green onion finely; add to the cabbage/carrot mixture along with the celery seed.
• Mix the three veggies all together with a wooden spoon.
• To make the dressing: in a medium glass bowl whisk together all the dressing ingredients starting with the lower amounts then adding in and adjusting to suit taste but using 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar.
• Pour over the veggies in the bowl, and mix well to combine.
• Store covered in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight (overnight is better) to blend flavors.
• FOR ONE 16-OUNCE PACKAGE COLESLAW MIX use the following amounts; 1/2 cup mayonnaise/ 2-1/2 tablespoons milk/ 2-1/2 tablespoons buttermilk/ 1-1/2 tablespoons vinegar/ 1-1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice/ 3-1/2 tablespoons sugar/ 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder/ 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, or to taste.

KITTENCAL'S CHICKEN CACCIATORE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (I have listed 6 tablespoons oil, use enough oil to cover the bottom of your skillet).
• In a shallow bowl mix the flour with garlic powder, then coat each piece of chicken lightly in the flour mixture (shaking off any excess).
• Cook the chicken in oil over medium-high heat on both sides until just lightly browned (about 4 minutes per side) then remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add in mushrooms, onions and green bell pepper; cook stirring for about 3-4 minutes or until just softened scraping any browned bits that have accumulated on the bottom of the skillet.
• Add in fresh garlic, chili flakes, oregano and basil; cook stirring for 2 minutes.
• Add in tomato paste; cook stirring constantly for 2 minutes.
• Add in diced tomatoes with juice, chicken broth and wine, olives, seasoned salt and bay leaf; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for about 15 minutes stirring occasionally (just to blend the flavors).
• Return the browned chicken back to the skillet (carefully turn the chicken to coat with the sauce).
• Reduce heat to low and simmer covered for about 1-1/4 hours, stirring occasionally and turning the chicken pieces a few times during cooking.
• Season sauce with more salt if desired and black pepper about halfway through cooking.
• Serve with cooked pasta.
