Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Preheat 12-inch electric skillet to 350F. Combine flour, salt and pepper; dredge chicken. Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet; saute chicken for 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove chicken and set aside. Add remaining oil to skillet; saute onion and the next 3 ingredients until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and spices, breaking up tomatoes with spoon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to 225 F and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the chicken; cook for 15 minutes longer until chicken is done. Serve over hot cooked spaghetti.
  2. Serves 4 to 6.
