Dining column: Shaking and baking and proud of it

TAHOE/TRUCKEE — In a recent column, I touched briefly on the miracle properties of Shake 'N Bake and was flooded with requests (OK, two people asked) to expound on this topic.Yes, it's true; Shake ‘N Bake has been the corner-stone of many of my most beloved recipes. There. I said it. I learned the hard way about using the blue box: It is best to come clean about it from day one. It is like the padded bra of the culinary world — eventually, they are going to find out. For myself, I was outed by the family dog who decided to rifle through the kitchen trash (something she never, ever, did, by the way) thus exposing the empty Shake ‘N Bake box just as we were sitting down to my famous Chicken Cordon Bleu. I suppose I owe Black Jack a thank you for the intervention. Following are two easy recipes, both getting their start from the Sandamp;B.
