Maple Mustard Chicken

This Maple Mustard Chicken has a tangy and sweet flavor. The maple mustard sauce works really well on chicken thighs, but would also be great on pork. I used boneless, skinless thighs. If you want it to get crispy, then leave the skin on.

Ikea Swedish Meatballs with Cream Sauce

The largest IKEA in the United States just opened in Los Angeles. It’s absolutely massive. They almost need to put in a trolley! This is about their iconic Swedish meatballs and the beauty of it is that you can buy them frozen after you buy your GRÖNKULLA, FLÄRDFULL, SMÖRBOLL and (I always buy) their paper napkins. I know a lot of people that do not live near an IKEA, so here is a recipe to make them yourself.

Deep Dish Pizza

My friend Debi made this delicious Chicago-style Deep Dish Pizza. Chicago-style pizza refers to several different styles of pizza developed in Chicago. Arguably, the most famous of these is known as deep-dish pizza. This style of pizza is not very popular in California, land of thin crust.

Steak Fajita Skillet

This Steak Fajita Skillet is so easy and good. It's super cheesy and made in under 30 minutes! "Fajita" literally translates to "little skirts" or "little bands.The key is to not trim off too much of the fat that covers one side of the steak. They'll melt into the cracks as the meat cooks, making each bite juicier and tastier.

Rhubarb Tart

Take these precious next few months to familiarize yourself with the Rhubarb plant. While naturally bitter (and toxic if you eat the leaves!), this celery-like root will add that spring-time punch of color you crave to any dessert. This tart is subtle in its flavors which is perfect for a warm, May evening and the lattice cover will always wow, however you do not need to be that intricate if you don’t want to. I also took it upon myself to add a dash of rum to the frangipane when I added the vanilla—because why not?
