 Today, I'm making viral one-pot meals to see if they're worth the hype. With everything we have planned this summer, the last thing I want to do is a lot of dishes. So I went to the internet, on to TikTok, to see what they say is the best one-pot meals. I'm excited to try these, see if they're any good. All right, guys, let's get cooking. The first one I'm making is from Half Baked Harvest. This is her one skillet creamy, sun-dried tomato, chicken and orzo. That's a lot, that's a long one. And I can see how this went viral. It looks amazing. Now, thankfully, I found a link to her website, so I'm able to get all the ingredients measured correctly. Now, if you want to see the original video that has millions of views, I'll link it down below for you. Now, first, I'm going to mix all of the spices together. So we have oregano, paprika, crushed red pepper flakes, and some salt and pepper in here. Next, we have one pound of chicken breast that is thawed. You can use chicken thighs if you want, but we are going to make these a little smaller so they'll cook a little better. Once your chicken is done, I'm actually going to put it in the original container that it came in. So I'm going to take one tablespoon of olive oil and pour it onto the chicken, and we're going to mix this around a little bit. Oh, baby is awake. All right, so you want to make it on a skillet that can actually go in the oven. So no plastic handles, make sure they're metal, and then we're going to heat up another tablespoon of olive oil. Now, I love putting them back into the original container because I'm going to throw that away. So now we're going to take the spices and just gently rub them on each individual chicken. When all the oil is heated up, we're going to put these right on. We are going to cook the chicken about three to five minutes on each side. All right, the chicken is done, so we're going to take it off out of the pan. Now, to this pan, we're going to add the two tablespoons of butter and just get it until it's nice and melted. Now, the recipe calls for shallots, but I like green onions better, so we're making it our own today. So we're going to add just two green onions. We're going to cook these until fragrant. And we're going to add about two cloves of garlic in this, and then one cup of orzo. Orzo is like a pasta that looks like a rice, it's good. And then we're just going to kind of mix this together and we want to kind of brown up the orzo a little bit. Once it's kind of browned up a little bit, the original recipe calls for wine, but I don't cook with wine, so we're just going to add one can of chicken broth to deglaze it. Now, we're going to cook this about five minutes. Okay, we're going to add one cup of heavy cream. Then we have two teaspoons of Dijon mustard, about a third cup of grated Parmesan, and we're going to eyeball this one this time. A little bit more, because you always need more cheese, right? Right. About a half cup of sun-dried tomatoes. I cut those up so they weren't so big. And then about two cups of spinach. And again, I'm just going to do a few handfuls here. That's close, right? Close. We're just going to mix this all together until the spinach is nice and wilted. Okay, spinach is pretty wilted. Now it's time to add back on the chicken. Now, she got really fancy and added a little fresh rosemary on top, along with some lemon. All right, let's taste test it, hopefully. All right, that one is definitely a five out of five. The next recipe is that cast iron guy, and he's making beef stroganoff. Now, I can see why this has millions of views. I mean, really, who doesn't love a good beef stroganoff? Okay, you're going to start by cooking one pound of ground beef. He says in your cast iron skillet, but I don't have a cast iron skillet, so we're just going to use a normal skillet, and it will work just fine. Now, the one thing he's not using is a chopster. So, that cast iron guy, I highly recommend one. So, he said we're going to add salt and pepper right now. I like that. Mix that in. Now, he said to add your garlic next, but I need to drain my grease first. That's one step that he didn't do, but I need to. All right, now we're going to add a tablespoon of minced garlic, and we're going to just cook that until you can smell it, or until it's fragrant. I liked how he did this part. These are the seasonings I'm going to add. I'm going to mix it all up. Now, we're going to add one tablespoon of Dijon mustard. That looks about like a tablespoon. And then, one tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. Worcestershire Worcestershire Worcestershire sauce, whatever you call it, one tablespoon. Next, we're going to add four cups of beef broth. All right, okay, this is the good stuff. And then, we have two cups of heavy whipping cream. Okay, once you have like a little light boil, we're going to add 12 ounces of egg noodles. Now, the goal of this is to cover all of the noodles. You don't want crunchy noodles, so we want them all covered. You could easily do this in the Instant Pot too, just throwing that out there. All right, we're going to cook this for about five minutes. All right, noodles are cooked. Now, we're going to add eight ounces of cream cheese and then about a half cup of sour cream. And we're just going to mix this until everything is melted and creamy and smooth. All right, this wasn't as juicy, so I'm just going to let it sit on the stove top for a little bit. Now, that is some good beef stroganoff. Next up, stroganoff. Probably one of the best stroganoff I've had. I love that as ground beef and not the steak. Yes, huge fan, huge fan of this five out of five. Now, this recipe is from Mississippi Queen and she got it from Webb's Kitchen. Now, the problem is there is no name for this one, so we're making a name ourselves. We're going to call this Cheese Chicken Bacon and Biscuits. Now, she got her chicken from a rotisserie chicken. They were just out of rotisserie chicken, so I cooked my own chicken in Instant Pot. Now, in a skillet, she added chicken from one rotisserie chicken. I added about three chicken breasts. They're kind of small, so close enough, right? Close enough. Then she added two cans of cream of chicken soup. All right, and we're going to add in 1 fourth cup of onion. I think it was one whole package of ranch seasoning, so we're just going to call it a win, in fact. Okay, close enough. Then half package of bacon bits. And she bought one more. I bought Kroger, they're about the same price, but always go name-brand bacon bits, if you want them a little cheaper. Not name-brand, store-brand. Then she did eight ounces of cream cheese. Going to turn on the stove top here. It's a pretty good guess, since we're working on a skillet, and we're just going to try and combine all this together. I'm guessing that is what she's doing here. Okay, while that's heating up on the stove top, we've got to cut our biscuits. Now, I like to use a pizza cutter. You can use scissors, you can use a knife, but I'm going to cut them into about six pieces. And she only used a few of them, but you know what? I love biscuits. So we're going to use all the biscuits from the biscuit can. So there's eight of them. All right, the mixture is done. Now, in the video, they actually moved this to a different pan. I'm going to keep it in this pan, because we want this one pan, right? No dishes here. So I got my eight biscuits. We're just going to put these on and spread them all around a little bit. Now, this recipe didn't call for a certain amount of cheese, so at least a cup at least. Okay, now they didn't give a cooking time really. So she stuck it in at 375, pretty much until it was brown. So I will give you a dime on this one. All right, we ended up going 16 minutes. All right, this one I thought was interesting. Let's just say that. So I'm curious of how it tastes. Okay, if you like cracked chicken, you're going to love this. That was really good, surprisingly delicious. I also give this one a five out of five. There are reasons why these have millions of views. They're amazing. All right, if I had to pick a favorite, the chicken or so, highly recommend it. Now, if you try any of these recipes, let me know down in the comments. You won't regret it, I swear. All right, guys, I'll see you next time. Bye.
