On a recent visit to my son’s house, he prepared a wonderful dish for us called Butter Chicken. It is a warm and pleasantly spiced dish often served in India communities. This dish is prepared in an instant pot, or a pressure cooker. I want to mention that the original recipe called for 1 teaspoon […]
Back in the 70’s, I came across this recipe in a Hunts cookbook. The original recipe called for water, but substituting a dry, white wine for the water really makes the flavors pop. The rich tomato sauce is beyond flavorful. Serve the sauce over a side of pasta, such as spaghetti. A slice or two […]
Some time ago, I was watching a cooking show and they featured this recipe. As I often do, I scribbled the recipe down and put it in my “recipes to try” folder. I finally got around to trying this and am I ever glad I did. First of all, when I got home and opened […]
When I was a teen, my stepmother made us some chicken and dumplings. Now, first I’ll tell you, my siblings and I were used to German style dishes…we never had anything like this, and being she was from the South, I figured this would be one of her specialties. Sadly, none of us cared for […]
If you like lip smacking good chicken, you’ve got to give this recipe a try. Normally I would not eat an anchovy, but through the years I have found that this hairy little fish packs a punch when blended with other ingredients. I have made this dish several times. The first time I didn’t have […]
Who doesn’t love a scrumptious dinner made in less than an hour? Sweet potatoes and chunks of chicken, lightly seasoned and roasted to perfection. But that’s not all…it’s sprinkled with cheese for a taste that’s divine. Who would have known a few simple ingredients tossed together could result in a dish fit for a Queen!
My youngest brother Tom shared this rich and creamy, downright delicious recipe with me just in time to use my leftover Thanksgiving turkey. It’s delicious as is or you can add items to suit your family’s likes. For example, I added 1/3 cup chopped celery along with a pinch of smoked paprika and a sprinkle […]
Marinated in yogurt and spices, this dish is juicy and bursting with flavor. Serve it with a side of rice or Naan bread.
A friend of mine recently gave me this recipe. I was hesitant to try it because I don’t favor spicy dishes. Much to my surprise, the dish turned out delicious. The orange marmalade and lime juice balance out the heat of the Sriracha sauce, leaving you with a flavorful chicken dish. I like to serve […]
For years I had lived in an apartment complex where BBQ grills were not allowed. I missed having BBQ chicken. Then I came across this tasty, tangy recipe in an old Hunt’s recipe book . The chicken is browned and then simmered in a delicious sauce, leaving you with tender, juicy, flavorful chicken.
