So, you’ve got yourself a salmon filet and you have no idea what to do with it. There are probably hundreds of things you could do with it, but here’s a very simple method that you’ll enjoy. Take a VERY SHARP knife, like this one, and very carefully cut slits through the skin about 1/4″-1/2″ [...]
This was hands-down the absolute moistest, most delicious baked chicken I’ve ever had. If you think baked chicken is always dry, allow me to convince you to try my way. I baked this chicken with the same technique I used to bake our Thanksgiving Turkey a few months ago. As you can see, it works. [...]
Eat your heart you, Rachel Ray. Here’s an easy “30 Minute Meal” if I’ve ever seen one. This sort of reminds me of shrimp scampi, but with chicken… and no wine… and rice instead of pasta. Whatever, close enough. Parsley isn’t generally one of those fresh spices you buy, but I think you should give it a shot. It’s mild but lovely!
Last week I got strep AND the stomach flu within a few days of each other. I craved something hot, chicken-y, salty, and most importantly, simple. I was also not interested in digging out my huge camera for these shots, so I used my iPhone. Sorry about that, but hey, I was sick! If you [...]
I challenge you to race me to the grocery store and back with a bottle of store-bought dressing before I’m done making mine. Betcha I’d win. With the exception of Ranch or Caesar dressing, I don’t buy store-bought dressings. They’re way too easy and cheap to make myself. Not only are they cheap and easy, but you can customize [...]
I’ll be honest. There’s a part of me that feels a little guilty for posting this recipe. Bacon fat doesn’t necessarily conjure up images of healthy eating. Like most foods, though, we use our common sense and wisdom to eat in moderation. The great part about this dressing is that it’s so packed with flavor, [...]
I learned 3 things during the course of cooking this recipe: You can cook a pork shoulder for 2 days in a slow cooker and not die of food poisoning. Yay! (I actually have no idea if that’s sanitary, but I kept forgetting to eat it.) Next, I learned that when you buy pork shoulders [...]
I’m not sure you can really mess up a dish with mushrooms, onions, bacon and balsamic vinegar. I ended up being so impressed with the flavor, I didn’t actually serve it with any starch at all. It’d be good with pasta if you want, or just serve with bread too. Mmmm…. Start with about 2 [...]
Baba Ghanoush. One of those things people seem to keep asking me if I’ve had before. Now, instead of saying, “Babawho?” I can say, “Why yes indeed I’ve had it and it is in fact delicious!” For the record, you don’t have to love eggplant to love this dish, ok? Get a fresh eggplant and [...]
