I’m on week 3 of working 7 days in a row, so I’ll be quick. Luckily, Lemon Chicken Pasta is the perfect thing for this situation, plus it’s really good. Welcome to your new family favorite! This is one of those one-pot pasta recipes. You don’t cook the noodles before...
I’m on a mission to use up everything in my chest freezer. For one thing, it sorely needs to be organized. I’m a nicer person when things are organized. For another thing, I’m the kind of weirdo that keeps an inventory posted on the front of my freezer so I know what...
You’ll see some Chicken and Dumplings topped with dropped dumplings that are steamed on top of a brothy chicken and vegetable base. Others have kneaded dough dumplings that have been rolled out and cut, then simmered in a flavorful broth with chicken and vegetables....
Please don’t call, email, text, tweet, or message me to say this recipe is straight-up heresy. I already know. My very favorite jambalaya comes from the cookbook La Bouche Creole by Leon Soniat. Mr. Soniat was an old-school Louisiana chef, and he wrote a food column...
This is exactly the sort of dinner I like whenever my week and To Do list are nuts. It’s a tried and true recipe, widely accepted and acceptable, and it doesn’t trash the kitchen. It's the holiday season as I write this--y'all know the fun doesn't let up until...
Thanksgiving is upon us! And as exciting as that may be, I know some of you out there are bracing yourselves to deal with the leftovers. One option is to just serve the same thing over and over until no one will eat it anymore or it needs throwing out, whichever comes...
Fresh cheese tortellini is the unsung hero of the cold case in your grocery store. It cooks super fast, goes with everything, and is excellent in soups, salads, and a huge variety of pasta dishes. Plus, it’s hearty enough that you know you’ve eaten. I always try to...
A lot of you probably remember the recipe for Monterey Chicken I posted a while back. It was super popular because it was so easy and so delicious. I also make another chicken dish following the same general method, but with traditional Italian flavors: Bruschetta...
So Jimmy Buffet has set a course for the beautiful Mother Ocean in the sky where it’s always five o’clock, the tourists aren’t bothering anybody, the margaritas are always made from scratch, and salt shakers are plentiful and perpetually close at hand. James William...
Have you ever wondered why Caesar Salad is called “Caesar Salad”? I looked it up. It turns out that the original Caesar Salad was invented by an Italian immigrant chef, Caesar Cardini, who had restaurants in San Diego and Tijuana in the 1920s. The story is that, like...
Everybody in my universe tells me they love chicken noodle soup. I totally get it, and I like to think of it this way: rich, flavorful stock, tender carrots and celery, lemon zest and juice, dill and parsley, and plenty of tender white meat chicken. Plus pillowy...
This recipe and others like it are all over the Internet, and they seem to be based on a popular dish served at Chili’s restaurants. I’ve never been to a Chili’s, but that certainly sounds plausible. Here’s what I know for sure: it’s delicious, it’s easy, it doesn’t...
