Healthy Chicken and Vegetable Sausage Rolls

This is one of several recipes in the October 2005 issue of the Australian magazine ‘Delicious’ in an article featuring food that children will find delicious and which is therefore ideal for serving at children’s parties. I have also posted Recipe #139946. And if you’re looking for other tasty variations on sausage rolls, many of which will also appeal to children, you may like to try my Recipe #169225, Recipe #333506, Recipe #342256 or Recipe #159722.

Aussie Chicken

Found this recipe on the internet and wanted to post it for the ZWT5 I read that this is a popular chicken dish in Australia. Update 23/05/09 A few reviewers have stated that the amount of Seasoning Salt was overpowering in this dish. Original recipe calls for 2 teaspoons, I am cutting it down to 1 1/2 teaspoon. If the next person that makes the recipe, please let me know if this is still too overpowering. Thank You.

Seared Lemon Chicken

From an old recipe card that I came across during a clean up, looks good. Times are estimated but have included 30 minute marinating time in the cooking time.

Mushroom and Shredded Chicken Salad

A quick to prepare Asian-influenced salad which could be served as a main course or a side dish, from ‘tossed: 200 fast, fresh and fabulous salads’. If any of your mushrooms are particularly large, quarter them or chop them to an appropriate size. Ideal for making on a busy week-night with a takeaway – or take out – roasted chicken. BTW, 7 oz = 200g; 14 oz = 400g. The lime and soy dressing could be made in advance.

Chicken and Ricotta Sausage Rolls

I haven’t made these yet but I was keen to post this recipe as soon as I spotted it in the current issue of the Australian magazine ‘New Idea’ because I love Fergusson Plarre’s (naughty but delicious) spinach and ricotta rolls and this recipe could so very easily be adapted to include spinach by perhaps halving the chicken mince and adding some spinach in its place. Anyway, I’m looking forward to experimenting with the recipe and was keen to post it here where I can find it! The lemon mayonnaise also sounds very tasty! If you’re not keen on citrus flavours, feel free to serve with your own choice of sauce or dip. These would, I think taste good with Tzatziki. This recipe featured as part of an easy-to-prepare Melbourne Cup lunch menu. To the best of my knowledge, Melbourne is the only city in the world to have a holiday for a horse race, the first Tuesday in November. And what better place than Zaar to test the truth or otherwise of that statement! And to answer –Nimz–‘s query as to why these are called “sausage rolls”, I’d say that the term “sausage roll” has become a generic term for anything resembling a sausage roll in appearance. I have two other sausage-less “sausage rolls” posted on Zaar: Recipe #169225 and Recipe #139699.
