Apple Cider-Glazed Salmon

This Apple Cider-Glazed Salmon is absolutely delicious. The apple cider glaze is made with apple cider vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard, which adds a touch of sweetness and acidity that complements the salmon perfectly.

Chicken Tortilla Soup

This Chicken Tortilla Soup is from The New York Times. This is a nontraditional method. There are many variations of tortilla soup. This one is made in a slow-cooker, but I have also included the stovetop version. The soup gets its depth of flavor from roasting the tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and garlic until they become charred. It's then put in a slow-cooker with the chicken for about 5 hours. To me the toppings are key. I like adding fried tortilla strips, avocado, cheese, cilantro, etc. I also have another version on this blog here.

The beef chuck roast is braised in flavorful hard cider and beef broth with mushrooms, carrots, and onions until it is fall-apart tender. The resulting gravy is rich and savory, and the vegetables are perfectly cooked. You can serve over/alongside creamy mashed potatoes or herbed wide noodles.

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds is butterflied and roasted, so it cooks evenly. The miso glaze adds a rich, buttery flavor and it's finished with sesame seeds, which adds a nutty crunch. You could also just cut up the chicken instead of spatchcocking it to make it easier.

Pistachio Crusted Salmon

This Pistachio Crusted Salmon is delicious. The salmon gets slathered in Dijon mustard and honey (I used hot honey, of course) and then dipped in the pistachios. I just checked and found out I have 78 different salmon recipes on my blog! We try to eat salmon once a week.

Smashed Parmesan Roasted Broccoli

Smashed Parmesan Roasted Broccoli is easy and delicious. The broccoli is first steamed until tender, and tossed with olive oil, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. It's then smashed on a sheet pan with the bottom of a glass and topped with parmesan cheese. Smashing the broccoli, it creates a flatter surface for the cheese to adhere to, and it also helps to release some of the broccoli's natural sugars, which caramelize in the oven and give the broccoli a crunchy texture.
