This is such an easy chicken dinner recipe to make as long as you plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time for it to marinate. All of our favorite Thai flavors of lemongrass, coconut, and lime zest infuse and perfume tender chicken thighs that are grilled until just charred […]
This is one of our favorite Chinese take-out chicken and vegetable stir-fry recipes because it tastes just like delivery (minus the MSG) and it cooks up in just 5 minutes flat once you have all the ingredients assembled. From start to finish, this chicken stir-fry recipe is ready in 30 […]
This quick and delicious pork stir-fry recipe uses basic ingredients and is especially great for those nights when you need to make a grocery run but just don’t have it in you. As with most stir-fry recipes, you can substitute just about any type of pork (ground, shoulder, loin, or […]
We love these easy smoky grilled BBQ Pork shoulder steaks so much we decided to turn them into a delicious salad topper. We also happened to have some zucchini and sweet Datterini tomatoes fresh from the garden and this salad happened (and keeps happening♡). Pan-seared zucchini complements the pork as […]
By now you probably know how much we love to pan-sear just about anything because it’s quick and almost effortless, not to mention a delicious way to prepare food. Today, instead of the cast-iron skillet, we’re breaking out the grill pan to get our BBQ flavor fix with just 5 […]
Pan-seared pork shoulder blade steaks are so easy and delicious that we’ve been eating them about twice a week lately. Sage, rosemary, a garlic clove or two, and a couple of shallots take this otherwise potentially ordinary tender pork steak to something much tastier — not to mention this is […]
Cheeseburger quesadillas with smoky burger sauce are what I like to call lazy cheeseburgers. They’re just as delicious, but with all the melty comfort of a quesadilla (without needing to toast any buns or fry up the patties just right). We’re definitely a couple of burger nerds but sometimes especially […]
This delicious fried chicken cutlet recipe (cotoletta di pollo) is one of the simplest and most satisfying chicken dishes we make. It’s also what’s for dinner (or some version of it) a few times a month around here because it’s ready in 20 minutes and is seriously one of the […]

If you’re looking for a really good fajita meat recipe or something last minute for Taco night or Cinco de Mayo we think you’ll love this Carne Asada. It’s just as good (or better) than your favorite Tex-Mex restaurant and less expensive. And as with simple (but really delicious) recipes, […]
It takes just 8 to 10 minutes to pan-sear thick-cut steaks at home which is perfect for those of you who want to spend more time eating and less time cooking (without compromising on flavor or needing to fire up the grill). We enjoy pan-searing steak at home because it’s […]
Pan-seared cast iron skillet flank steak means you can have a restaurant-quality dinner in 15 minutes or less (5 minutes if you’re eating a bagged salad with it). Intensely flavorful flank steak seasoned and quick-cooked in a cast-iron skillet is a great alternative to more expensive cuts of beef allowing […]
This is the perfect summer sandwich recipe to be savored now while garden-fresh sweet tomatoes and carrots are both in season! Add to that some super-thin slices of delicious (sustainable) Italian shaved beef steak cooked with garlic and ginger in olive oil, and top it off with crunchy baby cucumbers […]
Ready in just 25 minutes, this is the best Italian crispy fried chicken breast recipe to make any night of the week. Juicy, tender chicken breasts get an extra flavor punch from fresh basil and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese added to Panko breadcrumbs. This shallow-fried chicken is one of our family’s […]
These oven-braised pork ribs are packed full of flavor with hints of garlic, ginger, hoisin, and soy sauce taking the lead. You don’t need a grill to make great ribs. In fact, you can use your oven as we have for this recipe, or throw them into the slow cooker […]
