Buffalo Chicken Bites

For those who love little bites with chicken. These are such an awesome snack, which could be a meal in itself if you have enough of them and it can making with other fillings such a steak, provolone, sautéed peppers and onions for Philly Cheese steak Bites... or even pepperoni, Italian sausage, mozzarella and mushrooms for Pizza Bites. The filling ideas are endless!

Ingredients:

1       cup                finely diced cooked chicken breast
   1/2 cup                crumbled blue cheese
2       tablespoons   shredded cheddar cheese
   1/4 cup                hot sauce
4       tablespoons   unsalted butter, melted and cooled

2 1/4 teaspoons      rapid rise dry yeast

2       tablespoons   brown sugar
1       cup                warm milk

2 1/2 cups              flour

Preparation:

Make the buffalo chicken mixture on this way: in a small bowl, combine the chicken, blue cheese, cheddar cheese, melted butter and hot sauce. Set aside.

Dough: In a 1-cup measuring cup, heat the milk and then add the 2 tablespoons brown sugar; stir into warm milk until dissolved. Pour the milk in bowl and add 2 1/2 cups flour and yeast and knead until a soft dough forms, adding up to 1/2 cup additional flour, a little at a time, if necessary. Allow the dough to knead for 5-7 minutes. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead a few times to form a smooth ball. Place dough into a clean bowl that is lightly oiled. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled and bubbles appear on surface, about 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 400°F - 200ºC with rack in the middle of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and cut into 4 equal pieces. Lightly dust your hands with flour, then gently roll and stretch 1 piece of dough to form a 12-inch-long rope. Flatten dough and arrange so a long side is nearest you, then roll out to a roughly 12- by 4-inch rectangle with a lightly floured rolling pin. Gently press one fourth of buffalo chicken mixture into lower third of rectangle, leaving a 1/2-inch border along bottom edge. Stretch bottom edge of dough up over filling and press tightly to seal, and then roll up as tightly as possible to form a rope. Cut rope into 12 pieces and transfer to a sheet pan. Make 3 more ropes with remaining dough, filling and cut into pieces, transferring to sheet pans. Let rest at room temperature, uncovered, 30 minutes (dough will rise slightly).

Bake buffalo chicken bites in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes or until the tops are lightly browned. Remove from oven (some cheese may have melted out.) and brush tops with melted butter before serving (optional).

Zalogajcici sa piletinom

Za sve one koji vole zalogajcice sa piletinom. Ovo je odlicna uzina ali moze biti i obrok ako ima dovoljno, a moze se praviti i sa razlicitim punjenjem kao sto je junetina, provolone sir,kratko dinastanom paprikom i lukom za Philly Cheese steak Bites... ili cak kobasicom, Italianskom kobasicom, mozzarella sirom i pecurkama za Pizza Bites. Ideje za punjenje nemaju kraja!

Sastojci:

1       solja         fino iseckane obarene pilece grudi
   1/2 solje         izmrvljeni plavi sir
2       kasike       iseckan cheddar sir
   1/4 solje         ljuti sos
4       kasike      maslac, rastopljen i prohladjen

2 1/4 kasicice   suvog kvasca

2       kasike      braon secera
1       solja         vruceg mleka

2 1/2 solje         brasna

Priprema:

Napravite buffalo chicken mesavine na sledeci nacin: u malnju ciniju pomesati piletinu, plavi sir, cheddar sir, rastopljeni maslac i ljuti sos. Ostaviti na stranu.

Testo: u 1 solju – koja ce sluziti za meru, sipati zagrejano mleko i dodati 2 kasike braon secera: mesati dok se secer ne rastopi. Sipati zasladjeno mleko u ciniju i dodati 2 ½ solje brasna i  kvasac pa zamesiti dok se ne dobije meko testo. Dodavati ½ solje brasna po malo ako je potrebno. Ostaviti testo da miruje oko 5-7 minuta. Prebaciti testo na blago pobrasnjenu povrsinu i lagano ga premesiti nekoliko puta formirajuci glatku loptu. Staviti "loptu' u cistu ciniju sa poklopcem, premazanu uljem. Zatvoriti ciniju plasticnim poklopcem ili samolepljivom folijom i ostaviti na sobnoj temperaturi da raste dok se ne udvostruci i pojave se mehurici na povrsini, oko 2 sata.

Zagrejati rernu na 400°F - 200ºC sa resetkom na sredini rerne. Prekriti pleh sa papirom za pecenje i ostaviti po strani.

Izruciti testo na blago pobrasnjenu povrsinu i i iseci ga na 4 jednaka dela. Malo pobrasnjavljenim rukama lagano rolati jedan deo testa u "konopac" duzine oko 30 cm. Lagano oklagijom rastanjiti testo formirajuci pravougaonik dimenzija 30x10 cm. Pazljivo utisnuti na testo ¼ fila na donju tercinu pravougaonika ostavljajuci oko 1 ½ cm od donje ivice. Presaviti donju ivicu testa preko fila pritiskajuci da se testo zalepi i urolati do kraja. Iseci na 12 parceta i poredjati na papir u plehu. Uraditi isto i sa ostala 3 dela testa. Ostaviti da se "odmori" na sobnoj temperaturi, nepokriveno, 30 minuta (testo ce malo narasti).

Peci ove buffalo chicken bites "zalogajcice' u zagrejanoj rerni oko 5-7 minuta ili dok ne porumene na gornjoj strani. Izvaditi iz rerne (iz nekih ce iscureti malo otopljenog sira). Premazati rastopljenim maslacem pre serviranja ako zelite.

How to make mason jar lights

Kako napraviti "luster" od tegle

The size of your socket/desired light bulb will determine the size of your jar. The bulb shouldn't be close to/touching the glass due to heat issues – Velicina sijalice koju zelite da koristite odredice i velicinu tegle. Sijalica ne treba da bude mnogo blizu stakla zbog toplote koju stvara.

For this project you’ll need – za ovaj projekat vam je potrebno :

1.    A mason jar - tegla

2.    The socket you want to put the jar on (it’s okay if it’s on your wall or ceiling) – fasung na koji cete zaviti sijalicu (moze biti i na zidu ili plafonu)

3.    A plastic or metal ring that fits your socket (to secure your jar lid to the socket) – plasticni prsten ili metalni koji ce fiksirsti fasung kako bi tegla mogla siguno da stoji na poklopcu)

4.    A nail or wood screw – ekser ili drveni sraf - klin

5.    A pen, pencil, or marker – olovka, marker

6.    A hammer - cekic

7.    Scissors - makaze

     8.    Pliers - klesta

Mark the size of your socket onto the lid of jars – obelezite velicinu fasunga na poklopcu tegle.

Use your hammer and nail or wood screw to break through holes in the lid, along the circle – cekicem i ekserom probijte rupe na poklopcu duz kruga

With your hammer and nail-like helper, break through additional holes around the center holes to allow heat to escape the jar. This is a critical step – without venting holes, you risk getting your jar too hot! – cekicem i ekserom probijte dodatne rupe oko glavnog kruga kako bi toplota iz tegle mogla da izlazi. Ovo je vrlo vazno jer bez ovih ventilacionih rupa rizikujete da se tegla pregreje i pukne!

The metal between holes breaks through with hammer and screwdriver. The lid must be on the jar. At the end of circle, the metal will be bending. Remove lid from the jar, use scissors, and cut to the end. The edges of the lid is sharp and it is recommended to use the gloves – cekicem i srafcigerom probijte metal izmedju rupa. Poklopac mora biti zavijen na tegli. Pri kraju ce se metal saviti. Tada skinite poklopac sa tegle i makazama isecite ostatak metala. Ivice poklopca su ostre pa se preporucuje da se koriste rukavice

Put your socket through the lid. If the circle is cutting allows push the socket through with little difficulty – and allows the “teeth” of the lid to grip the socket for some support. If the socket doesn’t fit, use the pliers to bend the metal back where you need to get the socket to fit through. – stavite fasung kroz poklopac. Ako krug koji je isecen odgovara moci ce fasung sa malim teskocama da se progura kroz poklopac a "zubi" ostre ivice ce se zakaciti i pruzati malu podrsku fasungu. Ako fasung ne moze da se progura kroz poklopac klestima malo savijte metal gde treba kako bi fasung prosao.

Screw the socket ring onto the socket. The ring should hold your lid tightly to the socket. Verify how well the socket ring grips the lid. If hole is too wide, and the socket ring barely grips it or doesn’t grip it at all, it must to need to used another lid and make a smaller hole. – zavijte prsten fasunga na fasung. Prsten bi trebalo da drzi fasung cvrsto na poklopcu. Proverite da li je dobro pricvrscen fasung za poklopac. Ako je rupa na poklopcu suvise velika i fasung labavo stoji morace se napraviti manja rupa na drugom poklopcu

Add the light bulb – zavijte sijalicu

Add your jar – zavijte teglu

And  ... your mason jar lights are finished. Do you like it? – i ... vas "luster" od tegle je gotov. Da li vam se svidja?
