CHICKEN & BARLEY CASSEROLE
This is one of my family's favorite recipes. I've typed it here for posterity, as I keep losing my copy at home. You can make this in an electric skillet or in a large skillet on top of the stove. You can also use a cut up chicken, or a package of 6 thighs, or whatever your favorite chicken parts are, in this dish. Instead of frozen artichoke hearts, I've also used marinated ones. Enjoy!

MUSHROOM AND BARLEY CASSEROLE
Delicious & so easy to bake - no hovering to stir. Greener too - better use of energy in the oven. The article suggested using low-sodium chicken broth - I suggest using your own - made from your last roasted chicken carcass but whatever. Found in the Miami Herald who adapted the recipe from Grains, Beans, Nuts by David Scott (Rider & Co., 1980). Can be made vegan with olive oil & vegetable stock.

BARLEY CHICKEN CASSEROLE
Got this one off a box of barley. The original recipe was just "Hot Barley Casserole" so I added a bit to it. Nothing fancy here - just yummy chicken and good chewy barley. The original recipe didn't have much in the way of seasonings - I usually add some thyme or sage or other herbs.
