Paprika Chicken and Chocolate Fondant with Raspberry Coulis

This Paprika Chicken recipe was in the Philadelphia promotion cookbook, Simply Heaven. There is a similar but different version at http://www.philadelphiacreamcheese.com.au/recipes/Dinner/Creamy-Smoked-Paprika-Chicken.aspx
To make the recipe from the cookbook you first brown the chicken breasts. Next you cook some onion and garlic, add some smoked paprika and crushed tomatoes then return the chicken to the pan to cook through (cover the pan). Finally add some Philadelphia cheese (the recipe used Light Cream for Cooking but as I had none I used spreadable Philadelphia and a little light pure cream), salt and pepper and chopped parsley. I served the chicken with steamed rice and vegetables. This was a really delicious, easy weeknight dish.

This Chocolate Fondant with Raspberry Coulis recipe can be found at http://www.masterchef.com.au/chocolate-fondant-with-raspberry-coulis-and-fresh-berries.htm As this recipe uses melted dark chocolate it is rich and amazingly delicious!! I think mine could have been cooked slightly longer as they were hard to remove from the ramekins and didn't hold their shape very well but they were gooey and yummy! If the junior masterchefs can make this so can you...treat yourself!
