More Videos--Blueberry Orange Scones and Quiche Cups

New Videos are posted on my youtube channel:

Phillis Carey Cooks!

I had a friend over last Saturday for Brunch.  I figured since I was cooking I might as well make a couple videos!  Here's what we enjoyed and now you can too.  Click on Video and it will take you to the youtube sight where you can view the video.  Click on Recipe and you'll find a downloadable copy of both recipes.

Chicken and Sausage Ragu Video

My first video! 

 It's pretty raw and I hope over time I will learn how to edit a bit more but for now here it is. 

Just click or copy and paste!  It's about 17 minutes long and here's the recipe I'm cooking.






Chicken and Sausage Ragu
Serves 6.

4 T. olive oil, divided use
1 onion, coarsely chopped
1 lb. Italian sausage, coarsely crumbled
1 1/2 to 2 lbs. boneless chicken, breast or thigh, cut into 1 inch pieces
Salt and pepper (or just pepper if using salty sun-dried tomatoes)
1-15 1/2 oz. can diced tomatoes
1/2 to 1 cup chicken broth (more if serving over pasta)
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, coarsely chopped (soft or oil-packed)
3 rosemary sprigs
6 oz. frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
3 oz. cream cheese, softened
Freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
Parsley for garnish

1. Heat 2 T. olive oil in a deep saute pan or a Dutch oven over medium high heat.  Add the onion and cook until tender, 5 minute.  Add the sausage and cook, stirring often until nicely browned.  Does not have to  be cooked through at this point.  Remove mixture to a bowl.

2. Add remaining 2 T. olive oil to the pan.  Season chicken with salt and pepper and add to pan.  Cook, tossing occasionally until chicken is well browned, about 5 minutes.  Remove chicken to the bowl with sausage.

3. Add the tomatoes and chicken broth to the pan.  Bring mixture to a boil, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.  Return the chicken and sausage to the pan and add the sun-dried tomatoes and rosemary to the mixture.  Bring to a simmer and then lower heat, cover and cook about 10 minutes or until chicken and sausage are cooked through.

4. Stir cream cheese into the ragu, a bit at a time.  Until smooth and creamy.  You may remove the chicken and sausage to do this if you are worried about overcooking the chicken.  I do this more often when using chicken breast rather than chicken thighs.  

5. Serve as is or over pasta or polenta, sprinkled with cheese and parsley. Enjoy!
