This was a recipe given to me by my best friend that is a GREAT go-to recipe
What you need:
Chicken Breast--how ever many you want
Crunchy Fried Onions--one can
1 stick of margarine
1-2 tbs of worshteshire sauce
What to do:
1. Pre Heat Your Oven To 350 degrees.
2. Melt the margarine in the microwave then add the worshy sauce.
3. Crush up one cup at a time of the fried onions. Do not make them crumbs, just make them as even a size as possible.
4. Take your chicken and dip it in the margarine mixture.
5. Push the chicken into the onion to coat on both sides then place in pan.
6. Continue until all chicken is coated. You can pour any left over margarine misture and onions on top of the chicken.
7. Cover and cook aprox 30 minutes or until chicken is done.
**Alternative** You can do this with pork as well. I recommend using lean cuts of pork.

Cabbage and Smoked Sausage
This recipe is with some guidance from a friend of mine. It tastes exactally like the way my dad used to make it.
What you need:
1 head of cabbage (average sized)
2 Tbs of sugar
1 Tbs of salt
1 cup of chicken broth
1 stick of margarine
Smoked Sausage--fully cooked--however much you want. I use about three links or one of the sausage circles.
*If you do more than two heads of cabbage double the sugar and salt but not the liquid or margarine.
What to do:
1. Peel off the outter layer of cabbage leaves and quarter the cabbage then remove the core.
2. Pull apart the cabbage and place it in the pot. You can just toss the quarters in there if you wish, but pulling the leaves apart makes it cook better.
3. Pour in your chicken broth and sprinkle over your sugar and salt. Cut butter in pieces and toss in the pot.
4. Cover and cook on Med heat until cabbage starts to reduce then add your sausage to the pot (chopped to your preference).
5. Complete cooking until cabbage is fork tender and the sausage is heated through.
**Alternatives: You can add potatoes to this dish. If you cut them small you can put them in directly with the cabbage and they will cook with the cabbage. If you want larger chunks you can cut them to size and boil them for about 5-7 minutes, drain and then put then into the cabbage pot to finish cooking. Canned potatoes can be used as well. You can just add them when you add the smoked sausage. Adding canned potatoes at the start of cooking will cause them to break apart too much.
