Coors Chicken Noodle Soup

Hey, it's getting cold outside, and there is no better way to warm up than a nice bowl of homemade soup. We put a twist on an old classic that can be ready in minutes.

INGREDIENTS

• about 28 oz. of chicken broth
• about 8 oz. of vegetable broth
• 1 can of coors light (of course this can be substituted for any other beer)
• any vegetables you might want to add (i.e. chopped carrots, chopped onion, celery)
• 1/2 lb. of grilled chicken, precooked means less prep time
• some egg noodles
• salt and pepper
• basil and oregano

PROCEDURE

All you have to do is add both broths, and the beer into a pot on the stove, and set stove to high. When this comes to a boil, stir in the veggies, chicken and egg noodles. Just add egg noodles according to how you like in your soup. Let this simmer for around 10 or 15 minutes, until noodles are tender. Add in a pinch of basil and oregano, then add salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!

Blue Moon Chicken Kebabs

Hello again!  As promised, we've got a stellar recipe for Blue Moon chicken kebabs.  Check out the recipe!

This yields approximately 4 good sized kebabs, and takes about 20 minutes from start to finish.

INGREDIENTS

• About a pound of chicken (3 breast fillets), cubed
• 2 oranges, sliced (plus a small amount of zest from one)
• 1/2 bottle of Blue Moon Belgian White
• 1/2 cup of orange juice
• a healthy pinch of each of the following:  salt, pepper, coriander, thyme, and garlic)

PROCEDURE

We first cubed and pre-cooked our chicken, so as not to burn the oranges on the grill.  Then, we mixed the Blue Moon, orange juice, zest, and spices to make our "marinade" (is it a marinade if we're not applying it until after it's started cooking??) in a large bowl.  We sat the mostly-cooked chicken in the beer mixture for about 10 minutes, while I cut oranges to an appropriate size.  Aaron taught me how to cut oranges to the "blue moon" standard...  Next, we assembled the kebabs, alternating between orange slices and chicken pieces.  Aaron laid them on the grill, and applied another quick dusting of the spices.  We rotated and checked the kebabs periodically, and took them off after the oranges had a nice grill mark.  I'd say it was about 2-3 minutes for each one, since we had already cooked the chicken most of the way through.

Aaron's favorite part is having an excuse to drink Blue Moon!  ... and his "grilling hat"
