Segment 4 (Announcements and Feedback)

• Google Plus Post from John McGrath, KF6EFG

• I went out to the site to follow the link to LiHaLo and noticed that the show is boasting that is has only 3% more badgers. Unfortunately, this falls below my threshold for badger related material, and I will have to stop listening until the podcast/site exceeds the 4% badger limit. Happy New Year! Great show regarding SCaLE this week. Keep up the good work! 73’s, KF6EFG.

Segment 5 (Cheryl’s Recipe Corner)

• Parmesan Crusted Chicken

• Description

• Parmesan-crusted chicken a golden, cheesy delight! This recipe can be made with different types of dressing so that it tastes slightly different each time.

• Ingredients

• 1 cup Russian dressing (see Options)

• 2 1/2 cups crispy rice cereal, coarsely crushed

• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 to 2 pounds total)

• 2 tablespoons butter, melted

• Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place the dressing in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, combine the crushed cereal and Parmesan cheese; mix well. Dip the chicken in the dressing then in the cereal mixture, coating completely. Place on the baking sheet. Drizzle the butter over the chicken and bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until no pink remains in the chicken.

• Options

• If Russian dressing isn’t your preferred flavor, you can use any type of creamy dressing like ranch or sweet-and-spicy French.
