Easy Weeknight Chicken and Dumplings

Ahhhh, comfort food at its best, AND it’s easy AND it is delicious. Really, need I say more? Okay, well I do have one more thing to say.  I think that this would be great with leftover turkey, too.  Just sayin’. These are pretty simple and basic ingredients.  You just might even have all this [...]

Chinese Chicken Salad with Soy & Peanut Dressing

I have been looking for a great Chinese chicken salad recipe for a long time now.  The problem that I have always encountered is that the dressing never lives up to my expectations. The dressings I have tried in the past usually have an overpowering soy flavor and the dressing doesn’t adhere to the greens, [...]

Orange Piccata Chicken

Well, when you think of Piccata you naturally think of lemon, right?  When I saw this in the Cuisine at Home Weeknight Menus I just had to give it a try.  The chicken is juicy and tender and the sauce is velvety smooth.  I paired this with long grain and wild rice with sweet peas.  [...]

Lemon Chicken with Jasmine Rice

I absolutely adore sauces that accompany my proteins.  They just enhance the flavor of the dish.  This dish is no exception, the light tempura coated chicken paired with the sweet Jasmine rice all coated with a delicious lemon sauce. I really did try to love chicken picatta, but every time I have made it my [...]

Clean Eating/Cashew Chicken With Vegetables and Quinoa

This is the second recipe that I made from my most recent Clean Eating Magazine.  I love the fact that they used Quinoa instead of rice.  I’m always trying to find a new way to use this healthy grain.  If you don’t like the texture of Quinoa then just use brown rice, instead. Look how [...]

Clean Eating/Chicken Blue-Cheese Stuffed Potatoes

I’ve been getting this great little magazine for almost two years and I [...]

Chicken Bundles with Dijon-Wine Sauce

This is a very impressive dish with very little effort.  Yet easy enough for a weeknight meal.  The hardest part of this entire dish is pounding out your chicken breasts, but you can purchase thin chicken cutlets at your local market.  Now there’s no excuse not to make these delicous little bundles. Since it is [...]

Authentic-Style Chicken Enchiladas

These are the most authentic tasting enchiladas I have ever had (next to my friend, Lavena’s that is). Now my friend, Lavena, is of Mexican heritage and she makes one mean salsa (which I have been told I will NEVER get the recipe for), and an even meaner enchilada sauce.  When we were talking about enchilada sauce [...]

Thai Coconut Chicken Breasts

  I love Asian inspired dishes, as I am sure you have been able to tell.  This recipe is no exception.  Bursting with flavor , this one is definitely on my top ten list. Here are the ingredients.  The only thing that was hard for me to find was the red curry paste.  It usually [...]

Sticky Chicken

  This chicken was so tender and the sauce complimented the chicken perfectly. I do my weekly grocery shopping every Sunday afternoon, and when I return home I take stock on which meats will need a marinade.  I prepare all the marinades and meats that day so I don’t have to worry about it for the week, [...]
