If you love chicken you need to know about Frankenmuth, Michigan. It's a Bavarian village in central Michigan known for their all you can eat chicken dinners.
I think they put crack in the seasonings, because I have never met anyone who doesn't speak reverently about the last time they overate when ordering the famous chicken dinner and how they anxiously await the next opportunity to overindulge. I use the secret Frankenmuth chicken seasonings blend in a lot of recipes because it is unique, versatile and reminds me of good times with family and friends.
INGREDIENTS
2 Boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch wide strips
2 tbs. Frankenmuth or other chicken seasoning
2/3 box of Rotini pasta
2 dozen seedless red grapes halved
5 celery stalks chopped
1 medium red onion chopped
1/3 cup Miracle whip
1/2 cup fat free Zesty Italian salad dressing
1/3 cup sweet pickle relish
DIRECTIONS
1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cook pasta according to directions. Drain and let cool.
3. Cut chicken breasts into 1 inch strips, coat lightly all over with chicken seasonings. Arrange strips into a single layer in a glass dish for baking. Do not over-crowd the dish.
4. Bake chicken for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, chop into 1 inch cubes and let cool.
5. Combine pasta, chicken, grape halves, celery, onion, relish, salad dressing, Miracle Whip and mix thoroughly.
6. Refrigerate and try to wait to eat some!
7. Serve with red grapes, cold water, crackers and girls fanning you on the chaise.
What's left makes about 4-5 salads for lunch, if you didn't scarf it down when you made it.
