Ingredients

  • 1 handful black walnuts
  • 1 handful each golden and dark raisins
  • 1 to 2 sticks celery, chopped into 1/4 inch bits
  • 4 skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1 box instant potatoes
  • 2 tablespoon butter substitute

Instructions

  1. Select a large cast iron skillet and spray with Pam. In the bottom of the skillet, scatter a generous handful of black walnuts, and the same amount of raisins.
     
  2. Chop a stick or two of celery into 1/4 inch bits and scatter them around the skillet bottom too. The bottom of the skillet should be fairly evenly covered.
     
  3. Arrange 4 chicken breast halves evenly on top of the raisins, nuts and celery.
     
  4. Prepare instant potatoes using water or skim milk instead of heavier milks or cream. Add enough liquid to make the mixture almost pourable. Be sure to add a couple of tablespoons of butter substitute and stir it in good.
     
  5. Cover the chicken with a thick layer of the potato mixture. Generously sprinkle shredded Parmesan or Ramano cheese. Lightly sprinkle the top with paprika.
     
  6. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 45 minutes. Serve in the skillet.
