This recipe is some unusual but results exceed all expectations. Before you decide to try it you have to be prepared :) I means, it will be good portion if chicken, before all! :)

But this is not all. You must find something heavy that will be your press. I'm use 5 liter (yes, five!) glass bottle from wine I bought once. You might see one in supermarket or wine shop, usually with italian wine.

Your chicken must be small, no more 1 kg weight.

Now I tell you how I do it.

Take your chicken, draw it if need, to slit along the breast and unfold it.



Also need to flatten a bit your chicken use mallet.

Now you may spice the chicken rub it with salt and black pepper, a bit chilli and coriander. Don't forget rub both sides!



Just before you begin rub your chicken begin heat the pan you will use for. Add a bit oil, chicken will need it :)



Now become critical point. Your chicken have to be under press, so take a flat wooden desk or some dish or plate, and place the weight you prepare for it above. It maybe even stone, really, why not? The weight press the chicken close to pan, this is important.



Fry it on moderate heat, both sides, it take me about 15 minutes for one side, so total it will be half hour.

In the end sprinkle your chicken finely chopped garlic.



The result. Oh... just great! The chicken was very delicious, juicy, and nobody will be indifferent to smell! It also looking nice and even festive.



Must say the process also was for me cool and fun :)

Return to chickens, ducks and turkeys. I want to share with you beloved duck and cabbage dish.

Duck put in a stew pan and fill out with sauce from red wine, 200 ml, soy sauce 80 ml, honey 100 ml, water 150 ml.

Rest it begin to boil and simmer about 1.5 hours with low heat. You have to flip few times your duck up to beauty cream-colored condition.



At next step remove the duck and put into rested sauce the cabbage. I usually prepare the cabbage such way: make 50/50 mix from fresh sliced cabbage and marinaded cabbage. If you don't have marinaded cabbage take fresh. The total cabbage weight is around 1 kg.



Ok. Rest the cabbage to stew about 1 hour with salt and sugar as you like.

When duck become not so hot separate meat from bones and slice it to thin pieces. Take care when you slice it, you have to every piece be from meat, fat and skin.

Serve pre-heated duck with cabbage and sauce from pan.

Especially for people that love duck prepared this way. You may make nice sauce for your duck by take your home black currant jam, mix it with small amount of sauce left over duck, Worcester's sauce and starch. You have to have resulting consistence like liquid jelly.

Maybe it sound hard for make this dish but really it is not so hard. If you will courage for this dish, you and your family sure enjoy this delicious duck and will ask you make it again.

I'm personally make this dish for our family holidays.

Well... take a chicken and rub it salt and your beloved spices,
but I recommend you add a bit sugar too.


Take a glass jar, add red wine and water, all up to half volume,
and place to our jar one bay leaf.
Such way prepared jar place on baking tray because else the juice from our
chicken will trickle down to baked box to soil it hard.
