Orange Chicken

Orange Chicken (Panda Express Copycat)

Orange Chicken patterned after Panda Express’ signature dish will make you totally forget about takeout. With this Copycat recipe, tender chicken thigh pieces are battered and fried to perfection. Then they are coated with in an amazing tangy orange sauce. Serve it over rice with an egg roll on the side and you have a…

Lazy Lasagna

Lazy Lasagna

Lazy Lasagna has all of the amazing taste of regular lasagna. However, it uses store-bought, cheese-filled ravioli in place of the typical layering of the lasagna noodles, and ricotta cheese mixture. This equates to less time in the kitchen and more time to do other things. As an added bonus, Lazy Lasagna can be put…

Chicken Teriyaki Chow Mein

Teriyaki Chicken Chow Mein

Chicken Chow Mein has a very spotty reputation.  It’s been years since I’ve had any at a restaurant. However, from what I remember, the chicken tended to be rubbery, the vegetables were always overcooked and the noodles totally dominated the dish. Not anymore with this amazing Teriyaki Chicken Chow Mein.

Mexican Rice

Spicy Mexican Rice

Spicy Mexican Rice has the perfect blend of ingredients to make it a memorable addition to any Mexican themed dinner. 

Chicken Schnitzel with Mustard Cream Sauce

Chicken Schnitzel with Mustard Cream Sauce

I never met a schnitzel that I didn’t like and Chicken Schnitzel is no exception. With a Mustard Cream Sauce added, the Chicken Schnitzel is a restaurant quality dish. The chicken is tender and crispy. The Mustard Cream Sauce is out of this world! 

Chicken Fajita Quesadilla

Chicken Fajita Quesadilla

Chicken Fajita Quesadilla is the perfect marriage of two amazing Mexican inspired dishes. The chicken fajita mixture is incredible all by itself. However, when paired with a flour tortilla and gooey melted cheese, the chicken fajita quesadilla is out of this world. Leftovers, if any can be reheated without losing any flavor or texture.

Jambon et Fromage

Jambon et Fromage

Jambon et Fromage is Susan’s and my favorite breakfast when we’re in Paris. In the morning, either Susan or I would venture out to the local boulangerie for the Jambon et Fromage which literally means ham and cheese. They are always made with a slathering of butter on a freshly baked baguette and topped with…

Belgian Spice Cookies (Speculoos)

Belgian Spice Cookies or Speculoos are amazingly crispy, crunchy and delicious. I think that the first time that I had these cookies, also called Biscoff was on a Delta flight. Since then, I’ve tried my hand at duplicating the not-too sweet spicy taste and crunchy honeycomb-type structure with disappointing results. That is, until now!

English Piccalilli

English Piccalilli sometimes referred to as English Mustard Pickle is a savory relish made from cauliflower, gherkins and pearl onions, pickled with malt vinegar, sugar and salt that is spiced with dry mustard and turmeric. It’s easy to prepare and makes an amazing accompaniment to a variety of cold and hot dishes.

Coq au Vin

Coq au Vin is a classic French dish of chicken cooked in red wine with onions, carrots, garlic, mushrooms and fresh herbs added.  Traditionally, it was a way to cook tough chicken. For my version, I use skinless bone-in chicken thighs for an amazing restaurant quality dish that is elegant enough to serve at a dinner party, but…

Ikea's Iconic Swedish Meatballs

Ikea’s Iconic Swedish Meatballs

Ikea’s Swedish Meatballs are legendary. Up until a few days ago, the recipe was a carefully guarded secret. However, like several other organizations responding to the Covid-19 pandemic, Ikea released the recipe for its iconic meatballs so that fans could enjoy them at home. I tried my hand at making the Swedish Meatballs. Here’s what…
