Pasta With Chicken and Mushrooms, Risotto Style

On December 29, 2009 · 3 Comments

I was reading the Food Section of the New York Times and stumbled upon this recipe for a risotto-style pasta dish by Mark Bittman.  I love risotto and I love pasta so I figured I’d see how this would all work out.

It was kind of labour intensive for no reason!  The [...]

Julia Child’s Poulet en Cocotte Bonne Femme or Chicken with Bacon, Onions and Potatoes

On October 7, 2009 · 8 Comments

For the past maybe 5 or 6 years I’ve put Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking Vol. 1 on my Christmas wish list. For some reason no one has EVER bought it for me.  I was ordering books from Amazon a few weeks ago and decided to finally make my own [...]

Every Wednesday I read the New York Times Dining Section. I love reading the restaurant reviews, articles about food issues and of course the recipes!  Every week I e-mail myself at least one recipe out of the NY Times Dining Section – a few weeks ago it was this recipe for [...]

Baked Rigatoni alla Norma

So I had this eggplant just hanging out in my fridge needing to be used up.  I didn’t want to BUY another eggplant in order to make a large eggplant dish (it felt counterproductive) so instead I started looking for recipes featuring eggplant.  I’d also been craving pasta so I started searching for some [...]

The Ultimate Crisp Fried Chicken

On July 29, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I fully admit that I have an obsession with Fried Chicken.  It may come from living in Harlem for two years (Harlem stand up!) OR it could come from my past life of being a Southern grandmother… not sure.  When I saw this recipe for The Ultimate Crisp Fried Chicken from Cook’s Illustrated [...]

Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki Sauce

On July 1, 2009 · 2 Comments

I’m always looking for new things to do with chicken.  I’ve made it clear that I’m not a lover of chicken but I have a hard time coming to terms with that since it’s a pretty affordable and versatile protein.  My main “beef” (no pun intended) with chicken is that the next day it [...]

I’ve been on a quest for the past few months to make awesome Chinese food.  For the most part I’ve had success thanks to Helen Chen’s Home Cooking. This cookbook is FANTASTIC!  It’s a great mix of traditional Chinese recipes and Chinese-American recipes.  Totally up my alley.

I was at work [...]

Lemon-Garlic Roasted Chicken

On May 31, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’ve made secret of my lack of affection for chicken.  I mean, when there are so many other interesting things to eat chicken just seems so pedestrian.  So, I rarely make it.  BUT every once in a while I get inspired when I see a pack of chicken on sale to give it another [...]

White Turkey Chili

*Sorry I’ve been MIA… BIG test yesterday but now I’m back!  AND the cleanse is over! *

I’ll be the first to admit that this looks a bit like a swampy mess but trust me, it was delicious!

I make chili all the time but they are usually tomato-based.  Since I can’t have tomatoes [...]

Barefoot Bloggers: Chinese Chicken Salad

On April 16, 2009 · 2 Comments

Somehow I’m totally a week late posting this!  Not sure how I got the dates so mixed up in my head at all.  Clearly I did not ace this one.  I have to admit, I wasn’t looking forward to making this recipe in the first place. McKenzie of Kenzie’s Kitchen chose this recipe [...]
