The Herald Kitchen Explores Innovative Party Ideas By Mildred Husldns Warm weather en tertaining can create problems for the hostess but there are all sorts of en tertaining ideas for outdoor parties for the innovative homemaker. Patio brunches, backyard barbecues, buffet suppers on the porch, all suddenly begin to bloom when the weather turns warm. The best part of this type of informal entertaining is that it can be easy on the cook. Much of the menu cannot only be prepared ahead but it can also be planned around some of the mar velous ‘ short-cut con venience foods at hand. For instance, this recipe for Pineapple Chicken in Patty Shells from the Pepperidge Farm Kitchens, shows how simple it is to make a delicious main dish for outdoor dining using cooked chicken and a package of patty shells from the supermarket freezer. The filling, quick and easy to make, features a delightful Oriental flavor. The cubes of chicken are combined with pineapple and pea pods in an unusual sauce that is unexpectedly flavored with orange juice, brown sugar and cinnamon. The chicken mixture is spooned into the golden crusted pastry shells and garnished with slivered almonds and celery curls. A crisp vegetable salad makes a fine accompaniment and for the finale, a bowl heaped with fresh melon balls and tall glasses of mint-sprigged iced tea. Pineapple Chicken in Patty Shells 1 pkg.
