Baked Chicken With Green Spinach-Horseradish Sauce

Serves 8
Recipe By: Robin Miller

Aside from the fact that it was not baked but fried, the sauce was insipid!
The instructions were also a bit weird, advising reserving half of it for
another day. Why not use half amounts?

Well, you've already criticized the recipe here. So why not go full
monty and post the entire recipe here for comment, and let the chips
fall where they may.

Funny. Robin Miller has a show on FoodTV, and her schtick is
cooking for very busy people. Everything morphs into a second
meal.

I seached <r.f.r> and found no posts by Robin Miller. But 10 of her
recipes were posted there by others, none were chicken with
spinach-horseradish. So if James were to post the recipe in question
I'm sure folks here would be happy to critique it.

Personally I happen to love horseradish, and I love spinach, and baked
chicken is always good... so now I'm itching to see this so-called
insipid recipe... how can horseradish be insipid???

I see it. However, I don't see this recipe from Robin Miller on
the Food Network website, so who knows what the source was.

I have made 3 or 4 recipes out of the RFR archives. None of them were very
good. I used to glance at the ng now and then but don't even bother these
days. Never had good luck with the recipes there. I'm sure some of them
are good but the ones I tried were not. As far as commenting to the group
you can try but I doubt if the moderator will allow it through.

I like all the ingredients myself. I don't think I've ever had
horseradish and spinach together in the same recipe.

Terry Pogue is a rec.food.recipes dump-poster. I wouldn't trust it's
recipes.

I say "it's," since it's a unisex name.

Terry's posts are notoriously full of typos. For example:

Message-ID: <[email hidden]>

I think it typos on purpose so it can post copyrighted recipes and not be
found out.

That's a good point. How CAN horseradish be insipid?

That's like jalapeno peppers being insipid, though
a recent thread suggests they are. Perhaps the horseradish
manufacturers are conspiring to develop breeds of
horseradish with less punch -- seems unlikely, but
the same accusation has been levelled at the pepper-growers
and seems to have stuck.

Another possibility is lack of understanding of the
word "insipid". For many years, I assumed it meant
"bad tasting" because I developed my understanding
from the context in which I saw the word being used.
It actually means "lacking in flavor", which is
something quite different. There's lots of stuff
I wouldn't eat if it tastes bad, but lots of stuff
I would eat if it was merely flavorless and I was
hungry and didn't have other convenient options.

nancy,

I posted to r.f.r suggesting Pat open the group up to peer recipe reviews
but never got a reply in return. It must obviously be lots more work than
Pat is willing to take on after so long. I don't even know when it began,
or imagine the work involved but I'll certainly give her stamina
credit!!!!!!

Refresh my memory. Didn't Stephanie Da Silva have something
to do with creating that group? Was she ever the moderator?
It's been ages since her name even crossed my mind.

Ah, yes. We all agreed never to mention her name again

From what I recall, Stephanie moderated rec.food.recipes, or was it the
sushi group. My memory is shot. :-(

And the possessive is *its*, with the apostrophe [it's] a contraction
