Chicken cacciatore today for dinner. A hearty and healthy meal :-)
Tuscan Baked Chicken
Friday, May 28th, 2010Yet another take-off from an Everyday Food: Great Food Fast recipe. This was a very tasty take on chicken with some traditional Tuscan flavors. The fresh lemon juice lent a nice bright touch. I only had time to marinate it for about 30 minutes tonight, but longer ...
Italian Vegetable Saute
Monday, May 10th, 2010This is a quick and easy side that I made to go along with some more of the leftover pork loin, which I just sliced thinly and placed on top of the saute before covering the skillet to warm through. Italian Vegetable Saute Serves 4 1 tbsp olive oil 3 cloves garlic, pressed 1 tsp ...
Bruschetta Turkey Tenderloin
Friday, April 30th, 2010This is a take on my bruschetta chicken. I did not have any zucchini on hand, but I was inspired to add some olives. It turned out exceptionally well, and we'll definitely be making this again! I served this with a simple romaine lettuce salad and ...
Italian Smoked Sausage and Vegetable Skillet
Sunday, April 4th, 2010This is a variation on my chicken bruschetta, just using a pound of smoked sausage instead of chicken. I do prefer the chicken version, but this is a nice change of pace. I made this for lunch today, with leftovers to take to work for lunches. Italian Smoked Sausage ...
Chicken Piccata
Sunday, March 28th, 2010I've posted this before, but the picture wasn't all that great, and as it's one of our stand-by easy meals, I figured it was worth re-posting :-) This is restaurant quality with very little fuss. I usually don't bother with the parsley, but it's a nice touch ...
Chicken Cacciatore with Sautéed Mushrooms and Zucchini
Friday, March 19th, 2010This excellent recipe is inspired by Fine Cooking's Soups and Stews special issue (also available online). I modified it for our taste and what I had around: boneless chicken, reducing the oil, omitting the onion and adding some onion powder for some of the flavor, increasing the quantities of ...
Chicken Mushroom and Basil Calzones
Monday, March 15th, 2010Yet another calzone iteration. This one was just my previous chicken and basil calzones with an 8 oz package of crimini mushrooms added after I browned the chicken. These are so easy and tasty, and the mushrooms were a great way to add some veggies.
Eggs in Purgatory
Monday, March 1st, 2010This is a very easy and cheap dinner, easily scaled for however many you need to serve. I have the recipe for one below, as tonight Shaun and I were just foraging thanks to a headache I had earlier that precluded any major cooking that might involve such things ...
Sausage and Mushroom Calzones, Take 2
Sunday, February 7th, 2010This is another iteration on calzones. This time I cut up some Isernio's Chicken Italian Sausage links into rounds for the protein. These were great, and we both thought that with a can of diced tomatoes instead of the tomato sauce, this would be great on pasta as ...
