Whole Lemon Marinated Grilled Chicken and Cabbage

If you haven't been following Sara Tane, then you are missing out! Sara's Whole Lemon Marinated Grilled Chicken and Cabbage is so brilliant and unique. The genius of the recipe truly lies in the innovative use of the entire lemon, rind and all, processed into a paste. The whole lemon marinade really infuses the chicken and cabbage with bright, zesty flavor. It's a fantastic no-waste approach! Sara grills the cabbage in wedges, though I was lazy and roasted it in the oven.

Honey Mustard Spaghetti

I received an email with a recipe that sounded wild. Initially, I was skeptical, but then I started to think it might actually work. Serendipitously, I had all the ingredients on hand, so I decided to go for it! This honey mustard spaghetti, with its sweet and savory notes, features pasta and chicken simmered in a creamy honey mustard sauce. Crisp bacon and a sprinkle of green onion provide the perfect finishing touches.

Marry Me Chicken Soup

We had our friends from Pacific Palisades who have tragically lost their home over for lunch this week. They have been in a hotel and in need of a home cooked meal. Cooking for others has always brought me a sense of calm and purpose. The act of cooking allows me to escape from the stresses of daily life and connect with something meaningful. I hope they felt the depth of our love for them.

I made this Marry Me Chicken Soup, which is a comforting blend of creamy, tangy chicken simmered with sun-dried tomatoes, onions, garlic, and a generous touch of cheese.

Chicken Scarpariello

Our friend Melanie made this Chicken Scarpariello, which is a classic Italian-American dish. Scarpariello translates to "shoemaker" in Italian, and the dish is thought to be named so either because the ingredients can be "cobbled together" quickly, like a shoemaker might, or because the dish was traditionally eaten by poor shoemakers who could afford its simple ingredients; the exact origin of the name is unclear. The origins of the recipe don’t matter, it was incredibly delicious. It’s sweet, savory, and tangy.

Ritzy Cheddar Chicken Breast

These cheesy chicken cutlets, coated in buttery Ritz crackers, are as delicious as they sound. Instead of the traditional flour-egg-bread crumb dredge, this recipe uses a tangy sour cream base, which helps to tenderize the chicken breasts. To make it easier, use thin chicken cutlets. You can buy them pre-sliced or cut thicker breasts in half horizontally (no pounding needed). Thin cutlets cook more evenly and stay tender throughout the baking process.

Irish Spice Bag

I made this at my soon to be son-in-law Pierce's request. The Irish Spice Bag is a beloved fast food dish that has gained popularity throughout Ireland. Inspired by Chinese cuisine, it's a flavorful concoction of crispy fries, fried chicken pieces, and a variety of spices. It is typically served in a paper bag. All I can say is wow, it's SO good!
