Perfect Hawaiian Chicken

The first time I ever tried Hawaiian Chicken was at a catered party many, many years ago. It was love at first bite! Since then I was on a journey to find that same delicious meal in restaurants. I would order Hawaiian Chicken whenever I saw it on the menu...but most times I ended up disappointed. The meal was either too sour or too tangy or too sweet. I finally stopped wasting my money on bad Hawaiian Chicken.

A Pioneer Woman Recipe!

I found this recipe on the Pioneer Woman's cooking site. I knew I would love it as soon as I saw the title!  Then I tried it and I was right...I loved it! Very easy to make! I tweaked it slightly to make it less fattening and to make the sauce thicker. And I used white wine instead of brandy. I also added parsley for color. I think I'll try it with the brandy next time...and there will be MANY next times...YUM! Using the white wine made it taste VERY similar to chicken picatta, but more creamy and tangy. I'm posting the recipe with my tweaks.


Chicken with Mustard Cream Sauce

Sweet and Tangy Grilled Chicken

I know it's very cold outside in most places this time of year. As I write this post, here in New York, we actually have over a foot of snow on the ground from the last storm that rolled through. But this recipe is so worth digging out the barbecue and braving the frigid low temps. Yes, I've done that many times for great grilled food!

Look at the bright golden color of this grilled chicken cutlet! That color comes from the

Soups On

Here are a two of my favorite soups that I tried many years ago from various cooking websites! I've made these many times since finding them!



Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is a delicious and easy soup! What is so great about this soup is not only the authentic Mexican flavors but that it can be made and ready to serve in less than an hour! Here is the link to that recipe...

Easy Chicken Parmesan Soup

If you are a regular reader of my posts you'll know that I just love to take classic recipes and add a new twist because I just can't leave 'well enough' alone! Some of my past 'twists' were...

Candy Wings

An easy chicken wing recipe with only 3 other ingredients besides the chicken. These wings are sweet, garlicky and savory.

Bruschetta Chicken

This is a nice light, fresh meal that is easy to prepare! I love the chilled bruschetta topping on the warm grilled chicken cutlet with the melted mozzarella on top. I know I'll also be using this bruschetta recipe on toasted slices of Italian bread!

Sauteed Chicken in a White Wine Cream Sauce over Linguini

 Don't let the title fool you! It sounds fancy schmancy but it's so easy to make!

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

 I came upon this super easy recipe many years ago on a cooking site called GroupRecipes. The recipe was posted by one of my favorite cooks on that site named Frankieanne. She helped me to realize how easy it is to make big fluffy dumplings!

Crispy Oven Roasted Parmesan Potatoes Over Chicken

 

Are you drooling yet? Don't you just want to take a fork and grab a piece? You may remember a very similar recipe from **this** post that I showed you last week. Well, I took that recipe one step further and turned it from a potato side dish to a main course. How, you ask?

Honey Lemon Glazed Oven Roasted Chicken

Your mouth should be watering just from reading the title! This recipe was so delicious in so many ways! Not only did I savor ever bite of the chicken, but the onions were pretty amazing too! Tender and sweet from basting in the glaze. Just add some potatoes or a green veggie and dinner is done with just a few ingredients!

Creamy Italian Crockpot Chicken

This is an extremely easy, hearty, creamy, chicken recipe that my whole family loves! I was making this every week for a very long time! Now I make it a few times a year per family requests. I always serve it with egg noodles but it can be served with rice instead. 

Vertically Roasted Chicken with Vegetables

I have always wanted to try baking my chicken vertically! It seems the best way to do it because then you have more room in your oven for other things like side dishes!

Man Pleasing Chicken

 In honor of Father's Day why not serve this to your favorite father! I think he would be very pleased!

 Although I think this recipe should be called 'Man and Woman Pleasing Chicken' because I was VERY pleased also!

An Amazing Oppurtunity!!!

I recently found out that I was selected to go on a trip to Seattle to be in a cooking video for the McCormick spice company! They are launching a new line of spice packets. I was sent this very generous selection, as seen above. Plus two bottles of their specialty spice blends.
