Addendums
This thread is a submission writing exercise. Take your inspiration from something different, like cooking, and bring it into your gaming. Take a recipe and add fantasy elements to it, or explain how this recipe fits into your fantasy (science fiction) game/ setting.

1) If you "add fantasy" to a real world recipe, write any substitutions (chicken for squicken for example) at the bottom.
2) If the recipe comes from a source, cite it please.
3) If the recipe has been personally tested, mark that at the bottom.

Remember, anyone can just scribble out a recipe. Try to make this a writing exercise, adding content to the simple recipe.

Squicken Stew

1/2 pounds of *Squicken meat, cubed
1 pound of red butter potatoes cubed.
3 large carrots, peeled and sliced into medallions
1 large red onion,chopped
8 cups of water
1 cup rice
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tablespoon rosemary
A dash of salt
A pinch of red pepper
A tablespoon of butter
1/2 cup heavy cream

In a large pot brown your onions and garlic in butter. Add potatoes and meat. Add water, seasonings and carrots, bring to a simmer. Add rice. Once rice is cooked reduce the tempature. Once stew is no longer boiling and had cooled some, add the heavy cream and allow to thicken.
Squicken stew is best served in a large breadbowl.

*Squicken meat is very bitter, soaking in brine for 3 days helps to remove the bitter taste. Real chicken can be brined for 3 hours.

If Squicken meat in unavailable, regular chicken (boneless and skinless) can be substituted into the recipe.
