  2. History… • Raising chickens for food has been around for over 4,000 years. • Originated in southern Asia. • Chicken’s popularity has been heavily fluctuating throughout history. At times it was thought of as a “luxury,” and other times it has been looked at in a negative fashion. • “During the early history in the U.S., the settlers brought chickens with them from Europe.” www.historyforkids.org/ learn/economy/chicken.htm

  3. …History • Chickens were originally brought up by families for their own benefits. • Eventually chickens were raised and used for bartering groceries. • During the late 19th century poultry production increased due to “modern refrigeration” and more “rapid transportation.” • After WWII “…developments in raising poultry increased, making chickens more available, and more popular…” www.nifty-stuff.com/.../ wyandotte_mix_2.jpg

  6. Nutrients • “A 4 ounce serving of chicken breast provides 72% of the daily value for Niacin.” • DNA requires Vitamin B-3 (Niacin). When there is a deficiency it can cause cancer. • Niacin can help to lower cholesterol, stabilize your blood sugar, support genetic processes in cells, and help to process fats. • Niacin’s prescence is necessary for the conversion of protein, fat, and carbohydrates into energy. • Chicken breast provides the beneficial mineral Selenium. (40% (28.01 mcg) of the Daily Value in a 4 ounce serving.) • Selenium is a necessary component of major metabolic pathways. These include, “immune functions, thyroid hormone metabolism, and antioxidant defense systems.” • Helps prevent Alzheimer’s and cancer.

  7. More Nutrients • Chicken is a good source of Vitamin B-6 (Pyridoxine). (4 ounces provides 32% (.64 mg) of the daily value of vitamin B-6.) • This mix of B-complex vitamins enhances energy metabolism throughout the body. • Vitamin B-6 is essential in the cellular process of methylation (“Methyl groups are transferred from one molecule to another, resulting in the formation of a wide variety of very important active molecules.”) • 121.9 % (.39 g) of the daily value of Tryptophan in a 4 oz. serving. • 24.3% (242.68 mg) of the daily value of Phosphorus in a 4 oz. serving. • For a full list of the vitamins and minerals provided by chicken breast: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=nutrientprofile&dbid=104

  10. 15 Minute Sautéed Chicken Breasts with Mustard, Tarragon Directions: Heat 1 TBS broth in a 10–12 inch stainless steel skillet. Healthy Sauté onion in broth over medium heat for 2 minutes. While onions are sautéing, cut chicken into pieces. Add chicken pieces and continue to sauté for another 3 minutes, stirring frequently to seal chicken on all sides. Add garlic and continue to sauté for another minute. Add mustard, ½ cup broth, and honey. Mix thoroughly and simmer uncovered for about 7-8 minutes on medium high heat stirring occasionally to cook chicken evenly. This will also reduce sauce. While chicken is cooking chop herbs and add at end with salt and pepper to taste. Serves 4 Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes Ingredients:1 medium onion cut in half and sliced medium thick2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1inch pieces5 medium cloves garlic, pressed3 TBS Dijon mustard½ cup + 1 TBS chicken broth2 tsp honey1 TBS chopped fresh tarragon2 TBS chopped fresh parsleysalt and white pepper to taste http://www.whfoods.com/genpage

Prep and Cook Time: 30 minutes Ingredients:4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1 ½ cups chicken broth1 TBS fresh lemon juice2 ½ TBS honey2 TBS Dijon mustard¼ cup sliced dried apricots2 TBS coarsely chopped walnuts1 TBS chopped parsley4 bunches fresh spinach, stems removed and rinsed thoroughlysalt and pepper to taste Directions: Preheat oven to 375. Place chicken breasts in baking dish. Season with salt and pepper and cover. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until done. While chicken is baking, bring salted water to a boil to cook spinach. While water is coming to a boil, begin sauce. Combine broth, lemon juice, honey, and mustard in a small saucepan. Whisk together and bring to a boil on high heat. Once it comes to a boil, simmer for about 20 minutes. This can be cooking while chicken is baking. You want it to be reduced to a little less than half the volume you start with. This will thicken and intensify the flavor Add apricots and cook on high for another 5 minutes. When sauce is done add chopped walnuts, parsley, salt and pepper.
