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 […]
This is hands down one of the best-tasting garden-fresh pasta recipes to cook right now. In fact, it’s so delicious we ate it for lunch four times last week. All you need is a little extra virgin olive oil, garlic, shallots (or onion), zucchini, and a variety of vine-ripened Italian […]
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 […]
If you’re a fan of Caesar Salad, (like Chili’s Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad circa the late 90s and early aughts), I think you’ll love this homemade grilled chicken Ceasar Salad recipe. Each component is incredibly simple to make from scratch — homemade Parmesan and herb-coated (featherlight) crispy croutons, umami-rich Caesar […]
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 […]
If you love Chinese food as much as we do, we think you’ll love this restaurant-style Argentinian Shrimp and Vegetable Stir-fry recipe. This easy shrimp and veggie stir fry is coated in a traditional Cantonese-style white sauce that’s light and silky and tastes like a cross between Moo Goo Gai […]
Black Italian chickpeas from Puglia and black Japanese sesame paste are the base for this beautifully dark, smooth, and creamy hummus. It tastes just as good as regular hummus but is a bit more dramatic-looking. I created this recipe to close out our “Go Gray in May for Brain Cancer […]
This easy homemade French Onion Dip recipe is tangy, creamy, and tastes just like my whole family’s favorite brand (Hiland French Onion Dip). I use a technique that helps it firm up just like the store-bought stuff without needing any unnatural ingredients. This French onion dip recipe is also free […]
If you’ve ever eaten Tacos al Pastor shaved right off of a rotating trompo (vertical spit), then you know how delicious they are and this authentic recipe does not disappoint. Ok, so we’re not in Mexico City and this recipe will never taste as good as the original tacos from […]
This Venetian duck ragù recipe is regional Italian cooking at its best. It comes from right here in the Veneto where we live and it’s one of our absolute favorite pasta dishes of all time. If you’re familiar with our Venetian Duck Ragù w/Bigoli Pasta, then you probably already know […]
This delicious Italian Scampi pasta recipe is made with langoustines (also known as Norway lobster) and it’s very different from what most of us may think of as “shrimp scampi pasta”. It’s definitely worth trying to get your hands on some of these lobster-family scampi, but you can also substitute […]
This naturally (intensely) sweet tomato Passata Sauce recipe is in a word, delicious. We use it for making all kinds of toothsome pasta dishes and in some of our favorite lasagnas. You can use any type of jarred tomato purée for this recipe, but today (and for as long as […]
