Cornfed Chicken With White Wine And Mushroom Sauce

The church’s unique, God-given purpose does not lie in political activism. Nowhere in Scripture do we have the directive to spend our energy, our time, or our money in governmental affairs. Our mission lies not in changing the nation through political reform, but in changing hearts through the Word of God. When believers think the growth and influence of Christ can somehow be allied with government policy, they corrupt the mission of the church. Our Christian mandate is to spread the gospel of Christ and to preach against the sins of our time. Only as the hearts of individuals in a culture are changed by Christ will the culture begin to reflect that change.

1		Dsp vegetable oil, or

1		Dsp of finely chopped
		parsley
		Salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large frying pan, melt 15g of butter with the oil over a medium
heat. Place the chicken, skin-side down and cook slowly, allowing the
skin to turn a nice golden brown colour. This should take 10-12
minutes. Turn over and cook for a further 7-10 minutes (or until
juices run clear).  2 Remove the chicken from the pan to the warming
shelf in the oven.  Pour away any fat and return the pan to a high
heat.  3 Pour 50ml of white wine into the hot pan and scrape with a
wooden  spoon any caramelised bits of chicken from the pan. This is
called  deglazing. Reserve this liquid.  4 Clean the pan and return to
a medium heat. Add 5g of the remaining  butter and sweat the shallots
for one minute without colouring them.  Add the mushrooms and saute
quickly, again without colouring.  5 Add the remaining wine and
reserved liquid to the pan, turn up the  heat and reduce the liquid by
one third. Add the cream, bring to the  boil, season with salt and
pepper to taste and remove from the heat,  keeping it warm.  6 In a
very hot wok, add the remaining butter and at the same time  throw in
the spinach stirring continuously. In seconds the spinach  will wilt
and be cooked. Season with salt and pepper and serve under  the chicken
breast.  7 Return the sauce to the heat on high, stir in the chopped
parsley  pour the sauce around the chicken and spinach arrangement.
Serve with  Boulangere potatoes or any other potato dish.  Converted by

Mixed marriages violate the nature of the intimate relationship that marriage creates. Marriage creates a family and God’s people are to serve Him in their families. Families are the primary unit of spiritual nurture in the covenant of God because they are the instrument by which and the setting in which children are not only born but raised. Families have a great deal to do, in the economy of God’s grace, with the transmission of the faith from one generation to another. They must because of the nature of the relationship between parents and children: the intimacy, the constancy, the dependence, the trust, the example, the instruction that happens in a family and, especially, in a godly family. To take an unbeliever to wife, to bring into that family circle, in the key role of wife and mother, a woman who does not love God or know his salvation, who does not reverence his Word and law, is to violate the very purpose of a family and render it incapable of being and doing what it has been created for... He made the family, the godly family the instrument of his grace in the children’s lives. But a spiritually mixed marriage injects poison into the children’s milk.
