CHICKEN
DIVAN
Virginia Justice
Tualatin Hills Parks & Recreation District Class
1-1/2
lbs. diced cooked chicken
1-1/2 lbs. broccoli (fresh), cut in
bite-size pieces
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1-1/2 cups sour cream
1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup margarine (melted)
Spread
chicken evenly in bottom of 9X13 baking dish. Steam broccoli until barely done.
Lay broccoli on top of chicken. Beat together cream of chicken soup and sour
cream. Pour mixture over the top of chicken and broccoli, spread evenly. Top
with cheddar cheese. Mix together margarine and bread crumbs.
Spread over the top of casserole. Bake at 375°F for 15 to 20 minutes or
until hot.
When
the turkey goes into the oven for roasting, put the neck, heart, and gizzard
into saucepan, cover with water, add a little salt and/or other seasoning, and
simmer until tender, about 1 hour. The
broth can be added to gravy, used for liquid in the dressing, or stored in the
refrigerator or freezer for later use. Debone
the neck and store for later use. The
gizzard and heart may be chopped and added to gravy or dressing.
Do not include liver in this pot-it is a delicacy to be floured and
fried. It can be eaten now or
frozen or refrigerated for later.
Make enough dressing for three meals and cook it in a baking pan rather
than in the turkey, so that you will have enough left over for later meals. You
might also wish to double the quantity of potatoes prepared.
When dinner is over:
1. Debone the turkey, separating large
pieces from small and perhaps light pieces from dark.
Break the carcass just below the ribs, and put carcass and bones in a
large kettle. For a richer broth,
add a beef shank and seasoning vegetables, such as sliced onion, carrot, celery
and celery leaves, and seasonings, such as a bay leaf, salt, pepper, and herbs.
A soup extender, such as bouillon cubes, instant soup base, or canned
chicken broth, may also be added.
Cover, or almost cover, with water, and simmer 1 to 2 hours.
Strain. Cool quickly by
putting kettle in a sink of cold water or outside if it is a cold day; then
refrigerate. When cool, lift off
fat and pour broth into storage containers.
Pick off bits of meat remaining on carcass or shank and add to broth.
Discard bones. Refrigerate
broth to be used within 4 days; freeze any excess in convenient amounts.
2. Slices or pieces of meat can be frozen
plain or with a small amount of broth added. Use in many ways, but use within a few weeks.
3. Refrigerate turkey, left-over dressing,
and gravy (also mashed potatoes, if double quantity was cooked on first day).
Arrange in sections in baking dish; cover with foil, and reheat in oven
in a day or two.
4. Refrigerate part of breast meat to use
for turkey salad within a few days. Refrigerate or freeze small parts of meat for turkey tacos or
enchiladas or other favorite dishes.
5. Put part of the remaining dressing in a
freezer-to-oven dish (or use heavy aluminum foil for a package).
Place slices or larger bits of turkey on top of dressing and pour part of
left-over gravy over all. Cover
tightly and freeze for use a few days or weeks later (do not store long).
Menu for this meal might include the turkey and dressing, baked yams,
vegetable, Waldorf salad, and dessert.
6. Place slices of turkey meat in a freezer
bag with some of the left-over gravy. Freeze in amounts for a family meal or for individual meals
if this fits your life-style. These
can be quickly heated in a microwave oven or in a boiling water bath if the bag
is boil-proof, or by emptying into a saucepan and heating directly.
Make as many packages as the meat and your ingenuity allow.
7. Make turkey sandwiches.
Wrap properly and freeze. These
can be put in lunch bag while still frozen and will be thawed by lunch time.
If used at home, they can be heated in the oven (if wrapped in foil);
toasted under the broiler, turning once; toasted on a buttered grill or fry pan,
turning once; or dipped in a mixture of 1 beaten egg to 2 Tbsp. milk, then
cooked on buttered grill or fry pan like French toast.
Note: Cooked turkey meat may be used
in place of cooked chicken meat in most recipes. It can sometimes be used to replace pork or beef.
Try it in croquettes, vegetable-meat pies, meat pin-wheels (rolled in
baking powder biscuit dough), salads, casseroles, creamed or a la king dishes
(serve over rice, noodles, baking powder biscuits, corn bread, or toast), or in
tacos, enchiladas, or tamales.

2 cups cubed turkey, both white and dark meat
2 cups diced vegetables (parboiled and drained) (example:
carrots, green pepper, celery, beans)

Make
a white sauce by combining the butter and flour in a heavy skillet (not
aluminum, as it may discolor sauce). Add
the cold milk and stir briskly to avoid lumps.
Let it cook down for about 30 minutes.
You can add more flour to make a thicker consistency; however, sauce will
not have as refined a texture. If
you find it necessary to keep the sauce warm before you use it, place a large
pat of butter or margarine on the surface to prevent skin from forming.
Stir in this butter before using the sauce.
Add the cubed turkey and vegetables to the white sauce. Season to taste. Spread
mixture in a flat baking dish. Mix
equal proportions of dry bread crumbs and freshly grated cheese and sprinkle the
mixture over the surface of the sauce. Slide
the dish under a preheated broiler about 5 inches from the heat.
