This is a rich chicken dish - one piece is very satisfying. This was my first attempt at frying, and it went okay, but it's still a learning process for now. The recommended temperature of 350 degrees for the oil was too hot, though. The chicken got ...

This 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 ...

Yet 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.

This 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 ...

This is a take on a Chinese-American dish that appears on most any Chinese restaurant menu. My version is heavy on veggies and light on the sauce, making it quite a healthy dinner that's very tasty to boot. If you can't find Chinese black vinegar, balsamic makes an ...

Pays d’Auge is a region of France near Normandy famous for its apples and Calvados apple brandy. This baked chicken dish of mine is inspired by that region. This recipe has been percolating in my head for awhile, and tonight I gave it a go. It was another ...

These are an easy and tasty dinner. It's quite kid-friendly, while still allowing the flavor of the chicken to come through rather than the generic fried flavor that dominates so many restaurant versions. I

This was a quick dinner - just a few boneless skinless chicken thighs seasoned with salt, pepper, and thyme, and thrown in a grill pan for about 5 minutes on each side. I served this with some dressing and tomatoes.
