Curried Coconut Thai Chicken with Satay Dip

Curried Coconut Thai Chicken with Satay Dip makes a great appetizer to serve at a party. I have been making this for years. Marinating the chicken is key to give it loads of flavor.

Slow Roasted Garlic & Lemon Chicken

This is Nigella Lawson’s garlic lemon chicken. It’s one of my go-to recipes. It is so easy and delicious, filling the house with garlic-y, lemony aromas. The only thing missing is the sex appeal. I wasn't wearing a silk robe while I cooked it!
PS - you can also buy already cut up chicken.

Chicken Smothered in Gravy

Why is there something so appealing about the word Smothered in the title of a recipe? In this recipe, I used chicken parts, ie - breasts, legs, etc. I think the next time I make this, after sautéing the chicken, I will put it all in a crockpot.

Tuscan Bean & Chicken Stew in a Slow Cooker

This Tuscan Bean & Chicken Stew in a Slow Cooker is so easy to make. Adding the chicken during the last two hours of cooking allows the meat to remain moist. Adding Parmesan rind imparts a depth of flavor to the dish.

General Tso’s Chicken

My daughter Zoe came home for the holidays from the east coast and she said General Tso’s chicken is one of the most popular dishes in any Chinese restaurant. I always loved going to Hunan restaurants when I lived in New York. There don’t seem to be many on the West Coast. Anyway, I decided to try to make her some. Note to self – it’s easier to order it from a restaurant, but it does work.

Chicken Marsala

I had to cater a luncheon for about 35 people. It's an annual thing, so every year I have to come up with something different. I decided to make Chicken Marsala. I served it over buttered noodles. You can also serve with mashed potatoes. It was really easy and very flavorful.

Chicken Schnitzel

We had an Octoberfest dinner. My brother-in-law Russell was in charge and made the dinner. It was fantastic. He made saukraut and bratwurst, chicken schnitzel and breaded Emmentaler Cheese. It was quite the Smörgåsbord (yes, I know that's a Sweedish word!).

Chicken with Peach & Bourbon BBQ Sauce

If you like tender, falling off the bone chicken, then this is a must try. The recipe is loosely based on the Pioneer Woman's recipe. I changed it to bourbon and added some chipotle powder, which I think helps balance the sweetness.

Chili Lime Chicken

The Plethora of Peppers
Our lime tree is so full of limes it's drooping to one side. I also have a ton of red chili peppers in a pot, so I marinated some chicken to use some of it up.

Braised Chicken with Onions, Rosemary and Sage

Braising, from the French “braiser”, is a combination cooking method using both moist and dry heat; typically the food is first seared at a high temperature and then finished in a covered pot with liquid. Usually, the dish is covered and cooked at a very low simmer until the meat is fork tender. Often the cooking liquid is finished to create a sauce or gravy. I used chicken legs and thighs. Also, if you can't find pancetta, you can use bacon.
