As I mentioned in the recent Czech-German Sauerkraut post, I served these lovely breasts with the sauerkraut, instead of the more traditional pork. Turns out, to be rather tasty and I will make this for The Latin Lover, sans the sauerkraut. Continue reading

This was the answer to The Latin Lover’s inquiry, “What are you planning for dinner?” This sort of just popped into my head. It went together quickly and had great flavor. Continue reading

avocado, chicken broth, cilantro, cooked chicken, Corn, crêpes, cumin, flour, green chiles, guajillo chile powder, heavy cream, lime juice, lime zest, Mexican cheese blend, salsa, Scallions, sour cream
This is a savory option for our crêpes. It’s pretty much a chicken enchilada, but with crêpes, duh. The sauce is lovely and loaded with flavor. Even though it has heavy cream, using broth lightens the sauce. Continue reading

This was fantastic fried chicken. Not only does this taste fantastic, but you can use up leftover pickle juice. Yeah, I know. Most people simply pour it down the sink, but The Goddess hates waste, so this was the perfect solution. And it brings back a wonderful childhood memory…my mother’s fried chicken. Continue reading

This is true fusions cooking. Seriously. Citrus and plums? From Persia you have cinnamon, cloves, coriander, cumin and oranges…and then there are those plums. Oh wait…that’s also Indian, isn’t it? Hmmm…but just to confuse things further, there’s some Sichuan pepper, allspice and hot chilies in the mix, too. Continue reading

This is perhaps one of The Goddess’s favorite recipes. She could live on this. Originally she marinated whole chickens, then she grilled them over indirect heat. It doesn’t get much better than that. Continue reading

First, let’s get something straight. The Goddess loves chicken salad. She’s never met one she didn’t like, except for that one with chocolate chips in it. It turns out that chocolate doesn’t make everything taste better! Continue reading

I just ran across a recipe for Chicken Mole Casserole on the Food & Wine website. And I do mean I “just” found it. It sounded great; I liked the idea of it. It just seemed like the perfect thing for dinner, so I made it, or rather my version of it. And it was on the table in 20 minutes! What a great weeknight or Friday-night-after-work-instead-of-pizza dinner! Continue reading

Almost every Sunday, when we lived in São Paulo, we would walk over to the bakery just down the hill from our apartment, and buy 2 chickens. Even today, I can almost smell the aroma wafting up from the bakery, more than 15 years later. They were a memory that was worth trying to recreate. Continue reading

I will tell you unabashedly, that I got the idea for this soup from the fantastic Marcus Samuelsson, chef/owner of The Red Rooster in Harlem. Watching him cook is like watching a flawless ballet performance, but with sharp knives and flames. He also happens to have spectacularly, nuanced taste buds. Continue reading
