Battle of the Chickens….A Giveaway

March 24, 2010 by Jackie

GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED. Winner will be posted soon. Thanks to everyone who entered.

No chickens were harmed in the writing of this post. We did however really use chickens to make our stuffed chicken recipes. Sorry. I am sure they went peacefully.

In honor of us posting similar recipes at the same time and our crazy curiosity to know who is reading our blog, we are offering a giveaway. But that means you have to participate and post a comment. And you are going to have to make a decision, so choose wisely.

So here is how you play. Read both of our stuffed chicken recipes below. Come back to this post and make a comment. Tell us which stuffed chicken you think sounds better. Oh don’t worry, we aren’t going to get our feelings hurt. Not too much anyway. We can take it.

Also, while you are at it, let us know what you think about our blog. What changes would you like to see. What rocks. What sucks. Ok, be gentle here because this part might actually make me lock myself into a room crying.

I am just kidding of course.

Kind of.

Up for grabs is a $25 gift card to Bed Bath and Beyond.

You must:
Enter only once – no cheating.
Enter before noon EST, 28 March 2010
Be sure to include an email – how else would we be able to contact the winner?

One winner will randomly be chosen using random.org and will be posted 29 March 2010. Your email addresses will not be published on this blog – unless you put it in the actual comments part so I wouldn’t do that if you don’t want anyone to see it.

This giveaway is sponsored by Paige and Jackie and this blog only. Because we love you. And because we want your feedback.

The Contestants:
Chicken with Spinach-Bell Pepper Stuffing
Blue Cheese Stuffed Chicken

I like the one with blue cheese…..but maybe a little powdered sugar in the crust for a sweet kick?

My vote goes for the blue cheese stuffed chicken. cheese = win!

This is a really cool blog! It inspired me (someone who rarely cooks) to try to make stuffed chicken.

My vote is for the blue cheese stuffed chicken – it sounds delicious and easy to make.

You should include prep time in your blog.

I’ll have to go with the Spinach- Bell Pepper Chicken…I like spinach and dislike blue cheese.
Of course, i’ll have to try them both out to be sure– but for now, Spinach- Bell Pepper it is.

MY vote goes for the chick with spinach. You just can’t go wrong there.
on March 25, 2010 at 8:33 am | Reply Beth

I love blue cheese, so that one definitely gets my vote!

Well…I was originally going to vote for Blue Cheese chicken and I am sure that it is wonderful.

But….the Spinach- Bell Pepper Chicken is very unique and my vote goes to that one. Looks just as tasty without the cheese, probably less calories! Really like the photos of each step.

I agree with the prep time comment, would help.
Prep time, cook time, total time.

Well the blue cheese chicken breast looks nicer with that Panko bread crumbs crust but I’m going to have to vote for the chicken with spinach sell pepper stuffing. Great flavor combinations. Adding a little jalapeno and or some roasted bell pepper to that stuffing would heighten the flavor even more.
I like the blog and will visit again.

OOPS………wrong post before.

So as I was saying, the spinach-bell pepper stuffing is delicious and very flavorful. I substituted tofu for the chicken and it was very good. I will definitely make this again.

I may be biased, because i’m not a huge fan of cheese, but chicken with spinach-bell pepper stuffing really looks a lot more appetizing! I love the wonderful colors and the texture looks amazing.

And your blog looks great. I love foodie blogs, and I like that you provide pictures for every step of the recipe. it really makes a big difference.

I’m definitely going to have to go with the blue cheese chicken! I’m printing it out and trying it! I love your blog… just found it today (MIL recommended it on Facebook). I’m going to peruse other recipes asap!

I would have to say I like the Blue Cheese one best, but I’m a sucker for anything that has Blue Cheese.

I vote for the Chicken with Spinach-Bell Pepper Stuffing, but I the Blue Cheese recipe looks super good too.
This blog is great and so are the recipes. I like how you put in photos for each step in the cooking process.

Spinach-Bell Pepper for sure! The bleu cheese looks good but I think the other takes it with the mixture of color and flavors and I would guess healthier!

I vote for the blue cheese stuffed chicken.

Mmm… I have to go with the Blue Cheese Stuffed Chicken but I’m not a big pepper fan. (And blue cheese is so decadent!!)

Thanks so much!!

I think I am going to vote for the ribs 🙂

i need a taste test! right now i’m biased because the thought of blue cheese makes me throw up in my mouth (though i’m sure the cook did a fantastic job of disguising the chunky morsels)…of course, the spinach-bell pep looks like what’s in my mouth. so, pepper looks worse but prob tastes better. blog is great by the way!

I’m a picky eater, I don’t like Blue Cheese, & I don’t like Green Peppers too much. But, I think I would still like the green pepper one better, and eat most it.

I would def. like the spinach bell pepper chicken best!

I’m torn. The only thing keeping me from voting against the Blue Cheese chicken …. is the blue cheese 😉

However, I can’t bring myself to vote for the Spinach chicken.

I think the Blue Cheese Chicken is an excellent recipe – maybe substituted with mozzarella? swiss? hmm … might even go as far as monterey jack.

Sorry Paige, not a fan of blue cheese so I’ll have to go with Chicken with Spinach-Bell Pepper Stuffing.

I’m going to have to go with the Blue Cheese Stuffed Chicken. It sounds good and I am not the biggest fan of bell peppers.

OMGoodness. My stomach is growling now and it is before lunchtime. I would choose the Blue Cheese stuffed chicken but I would be the only one in my family that would eat it.

Love your blog. So glad to have found it!

Though both look great, I’ll have to go with the Blue Cheese Stuffed Chicken.

Oh. My. Goodness. ! The blue cheese stuffed chicken is quite possibly the most delicious looking thing I have ever laid eyes on. I love blue cheese ! Wow, I’m definitely making that.. don’t worry, when I win the Nobel Peace Prize for bringing serenity to waring nations via poultry, I’ll credit you.. (possibly) :] kidding !
