Chicken Cutlets With White Wine & Shallots

Chicken Cutlets With White Wine & Shallots

I love chicken especially when its been pounded paper thin, breaded then cooked to perfect tenderness. Chicken breasts tend to be a little dry. My hubby and I prefer the thigh, but when I serve it like a cutlet, it’s always a welcomed dish. I have also found over the years it is an economical and versatile way to use the breast because it serves many more people this way and you can change the seasoning in the breading and the sauce combinations. Today it was made with a simple reduction of white wine and shallots… Continue reading

Moroccan Chicken


I’ve always longed to visit Morocco…the spices alone would draw me to this fascinating country. One day I hope to visit but until I do I will have to settle for making their delicious cuisine at home. In this Moroccan Chicken recipe I combined all the wonderful herbs and spices known for that region with chicken thighs, sweet potatoes and dried mango. They love mixing sweet with savory and by combining these flavors you get something really unique and oh so good! I hope you’ll try this one at home in lieu of going abroad…

Florentine Chicken

Florentine Chicken

Spinach is jam packed with nutrients and I love it! One of my favorite ways to eat spinach is Florentine Chicken. Although I do make it with fresh spinach sometimes, frozen spinach is just as good and certainly easier. It’s funny to me that I like spinach so much because when I was a kid I hated it. My mother always served it raw with these ginormous stalk like stems! This was before baby spinach became a household staple… Continue reading

Sauteed Chicken Livers

Sauteed Chicken Livers

When you tell people you like chicken livers, you get one of two responses… ‘I love them’ or ‘no way’. Well I love them and always have. My hubby and I frequently order them when we see them on a menu as our shared appetizer. I also sometimes make them at home when we have had long days and want a small bite for dinner. Another great thing about eating chicken livers is to use the leftovers to make chicken liver pâté… Continue reading
