chicken thighs, dry white wine, nectarines, Onions, Spices, Sweet Potatoes

As you know, The Goddess loves fruit with savory things.  The spices are the “warm” spices—allspice, coriander, smoked paprika.  And nectarines.  There isn’t much that’s better than a juicy, ripe nectarine, eaten out of hand, with the juices running down your chin.  God, I need a cigarette, just thinking about it.  This dish combines the sweetness of nectarines, sweet potatoes and juicy chicken thighs seasoned with those “warm” spices, all in one pan.    Continue reading →

Last fall we visited the Iberian peninsula.  If you haven’t been to either Spain or Portugal, it should definitely be on your list, and soon.  The food there is so delicious.  The flavors so bright and un-muddy.  This is what inspired this chicken.  It took me back to Sevilla.  Continue reading →

I had paid a visit to the local Penzey’s, where I encountered the lovely, well-informed and very interesting, Kristen.  She recommended their Turkish Seasoning, and I’m so very glad she did…that was the impetus for these lovelies. Continue reading →

Citrus-Roasted Persian Chicken ThighsThe Goddess was out and about today in search of yarn.  That’s right.  She doesn’t live by cooking alone!  Anyway, she was planning on have lunch at Torange.  And sadness…they’ve closed.  They were such lovely people and the food was wonderful.  They were even nice enough to sell her sumac and barberry, which, if you aren’t familiar with either of these, you need to find them and start using them.  So, in memory of Torange, she decided to make this chicken.  Continue reading →

Jalapeño Popper-Stuffed Chicken ThighsBoneless chicken thighs are a natural for stuffing.   The cheese-stuffed jalapeño is a perfect way to keep the cheese from oozing out of the thigh and giving the whole thing a nice little Zing!!  A pan sauce, a Cuban tamale and dinner is served.  Continue reading →

chicken thighs, cilantro, cornstarch, oranges, Plums, rice wine vinegar, Spices

Spiced Persian Chicken with Citrus & PlumsThis 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 →

Roasted Kung Pao Chicken Thighs with Stir-Fry Vegetables and Ginger RiceYou realize that The Goddess thinks about food and food preparation all the time.  It’s sort of an obsession.  She’s not normal, I tell ya’.  She’s always pondering about the “what if’s” and the “why for’s”, the culinary road less, or not at all traveled!  Recently, Chinese food has been on her mind; she was thinking about Kung Pao Chicken.  That’s what prompted this culinary adventure.  Continue reading →

Pining for Rosemary

apple cider, balsamic vinegar, chicken thighs, herbs, Onions, Peppers, Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes

073Rosemary, ahh, I do love this herb.  It has spiky, rather substantial leaves, a heady, strong, complex aroma and flavor.  It’s great on lamb, pork, fish and game, rubbed into chicken or your Thanksgiving turkey or sprinkled over potatoes (or other root vegetables), that are then roasted to crispy perfection.  There’s something wintry about this herb, though I use it all year-long and prime rib, wouldn’t be as good as it can be, without rosemary.  Continue reading →

Clementine (or Orange) Chicken

bell peppers, Carrots, chicken thighs, Clementines, Garlic, ginger, Onions, soy sauce

052As you may have heard, The Goddess loves citrus.  Orange slice candies, you know those chewy, gelatinized candies in the shape of oranges sections; I tell ya’ they should be a food group…along with bacon.  Not together, that would just be disgusting.  But back to the subject at hand—Clementine or Orange Chicken.  This is a relatively quick dish to prepare.  I prefer to use fresh tangerine, Clementine or orange peel, instead of the usual dried tangerine peel.  The chicken has a lovely carmelized quality and then the punch of orange and the Szechwan pepper.  This will wake up your New Year’s celebration.  Continue reading →
