Cacciatore means "hunter" in Italian. Preparing food hunter-style basically means stick it in a pot, cover with fresh veggies and herbs and let it cook. Which is exactly what you do with this dish. It's hearty and delicious, full of fork tender chicken and a fantastic vegetable sauce. A perfect pairing with pasta and crusty… Continue reading Chicken Cacciatore

French Chicken Broccoli Supreme
Are you sick of making casseroles with cream of *insert whatever has been creamed* soup? This broccoli chicken bake has a rich creamy sauce that you make yourself in just a few quick minutes. The taste is fantastic, similar to what you'd get with a condensed soup...but so much better. It has a crunchy buttery… Continue reading French Chicken Broccoli Supreme
Chicken Pot Pie
Homemade chicken pot pie rocks my world. It shouldn't even be called the same food as those store bought frozen bricks masquerading as pot pies. You know the ones I'm talking about. Green box. Frozen food aisle. If you think those are tasty, it's because you have never had the pleasure of a real food… Continue reading Chicken Pot Pie
Spiced Honey Lemon Chicken & Sweet Caramelized Brussels Sprouts
I realized the other day (with horror) that I have never made brussels sprouts. Maybe a carry-over from childhood rearing it's ugly head in my adult life? I didn't like them when I was little - really the only veggie I have no taste for - so I've never thought to make them for my… Continue reading Spiced Honey Lemon Chicken & Sweet Caramelized Brussels Sprouts
Chicken Corn Chowder
Oh the humanity!! Protect your children!! It's (insert dramatic pause and deep announcers voice) Snowmageddon 2012!! It's not often that Seattle gets snow. It's even less frequent that we get pounded with a snowstorm that leaves anything but a trace of the white stuff. However, I currently have 8 inches blanketing my neighborhood with a… Continue reading Chicken Corn Chowder
Chinese Chicken Salad
One of my all time favorite light meals is Chinese Chicken Salad. I always thought it was hard to make, until my friend Emily shared her recipe with me. Wow. So easy and scrumptious. I love it! Crunchy almonds mixed with a slightly sweet, slightly tangy sauce take a plain old bag of coleslaw mix… Continue reading Chinese Chicken Salad
Greatest Chicken Salad Ever
Everyone should have a favorite go-to chicken salad recipe. If you don't, use this one. It's the greatest in the world. I thought I'd posted this ages ago, but when my sister went looking for it there was nary a chicken salad recipe to be found. So here it is. Depending on how I'm feeling,… Continue reading Greatest Chicken Salad Ever
Perfect Roast Chicken
I love roasting chickens. I only recently discovered this easy (yes, easy) dinner. I used to think roasting a chicken meant slaving away all day, basting repeatedly. Not so. A few minutes of prep and then into the oven it goes. No work required for an hour and a half while it cooks. Just think… Continue reading Perfect Roast Chicken
Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
It's been about 6 hours since I had this delicious soup for dinner. I haven't stopped thinking about how awesome it was. Perfectly blended spices and rich chicken flavor combine in a soup that (in my humble opinion) could best any Mexican restaurant's version of this south-of-the-border classic. As incredible as it tastes, you'd think… Continue reading Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
Pizza! Pizza!
As part of my (and my hubby's) new budget, we've cut eating out from our life for a couple of months in order to try to pay down a big chunk of our car loan. As a result, I don't get to go have my favorite pizza at The Rock, and I've been craving it… Continue reading Pizza! Pizza!
