If you have unprotected sex in the two days after missing a pill, the Family Planning Association (FPA) recommends that you should take emergency contraception (the morning after pill). Ask for medical advice. Doses of cerelle tablets contain the active ingredient desogestrel, which is a synthetic progestogen, similar to the natural progestogens produced by the body.

Desogestrel works as a contraceptive primarily by preventing the release of an egg from the ovary (ovulation). It also acts by increasing the thickness of the natural mucus at the neck of the womb, making it more difficult for sperm to cross from the vagina into the womb. By preventing sperm entering the womb, successful fertilisation of any eggs that are released is less likely.

Directions:

Preheat grill to about 350 °F

Cut 4 18×18 pieces of heavy-duty tin foil.

Divide the onions, pepper, mushrooms, and carrots evenly and place them in a small pile in the center of the foil pieces. Sprinkle with salt and pepper

Lay one piece of fish over each veggie pile. Sprinkle with salt and pepper then divide the remainder of the ingredients over the top of the fish. Seal each package by bringing the two opposite edges of the foil together and crimping it, but don’t press it flat. Leave some room in the top of the foil package so it can steam. Fold the other edge in and up slightly toward the center, so the liquid doesn’t leak out and the package is sealed but not flat.

Place foil packages on BBQ for about 12 minutes depending on the size of the filets. You can open one slightly to see if it is cooked. Make sure you don’t over cook the fish you can always put it back on the grill if it is undercooked. Another great type of meat you can put on the grill is Filet Mignon, it´s a juicy and flavorful for those meat lovers out there.

Chicken Marsala – A Traditional Italian Recipe and Favorite Comfort Food

Chicken Marsala – A Traditional Italian Recipe and Favorite Comfort Food

Chicken Marsala is one of my favorite chicken dishes.  It’s a traditional Italian recipe and a comfort food I can’t live without.  I love the mushrooms and the sweet taste of the wine along with the salty prosciutto. I’m sure everyone makes this dish his or her own way, but this is how I do it and everyone seems to love it.

See my “Cook’s Notes” on how to make this ahead of time for an easy dinner party dish.

Ingredients:

  • 4 skinless, boneless, chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds fillet and pounded thin)
  • 1-8 0z. container of fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • ½ cup of flour, for dredging
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 slices of prosciutto, chopped
  • 1 cup Marsala wine
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • Salt and pepper

Directions:

On a cutting board, fillet each chicken breast and trim off any fat. Place two pieces of chicken at a time between two pieces of parchment paper as seen in photo below. Pound with a flat mallet, until the cutlets are about 1/4-inch thick.  Set aside and repeat until all the chicken is pounded thin. Put some flour in a shallow dish. Season each side of the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge each cutlet lightly on each side with flour.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is nice and hot, brown a few cutlets at a time for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden. Once the chicken is brown, place the pieces in a single layer on a cookie sheet with a rim, or a glass casserole dish. Continue until all the chicken is browned.

Lower the heat to medium and add the prosciutto to the drippings in the pan, sauté for a minute or two until browned. Add the mushrooms, season with a little salt and pepper and sauté until they are nicely browned on each side.  Turn up the heat and pour the Marsala in the pan and boil down for a minute so the alcohol cooks off. Then add the chicken stock and the butter.  Allow it to cook for a minute or two. Pour the sauce over the chicken, cover with foil and place in a 350-degree oven for about 20 minutes. Remove chicken and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Cook’s Notes:

Entertaining a large crowd:

I love to make chicken Marsala for large parties or family dinner parties. It’s such a yummy treat and everyone seems to love it.  You can easily double or triple the recipe. If I’m having a large dinner party I will usually make things ahead of time and refrigerate them.

You can sauté the chicken, place it in a baking dish or cookie sheet and cover it with foil. Then cook the sauce separately and set aside in a separate bowl. Refrigerate everything and take it out 20 minutes before company arrives. Then preheat your oven, pour sauce over chicken and cook for 20-30 minutes before serving.

Cooking tips:

Filleting and pounding the chicken into thin cutlets is a must for this recipe. When I make chicken people usually ask “how come it’s so tender and you can cut it with a fork?” This is because I fillet it and pound it. If you don’t have a kitchen mallet be sure to pick one up.  You can find them in the supermarket where they have cooking utensils. They usually come in wood or metal.
