Shaun had his last final of his first year of law school yesterday, so we had a celebratory dinner tonight - grilled thin cut ribeye steak, steamed king crab, sauteed mushrooms, and steamed zucchini. Yum!

This is a somewhat easier take on my Pays d'Auge chicken, inspired by the mushrooms and apple brandy of the Pays d'Auge region in France. As I mentioned wanting to try in that post, I've used boneless skinless chicken thighs here and reduced the quantity of sauce. I ...

This is a low carb take on my stuffed cabbage rolls. I replaced the rice with more zucchini and some finely chopped cauliflower, which worked surprisingly well. The filling was a little drier, but still quite good.

Yet 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 ...
