Weeknight Dinners

Creole Chicken Fettuccine

Creole Chicken Fettuccine

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 Lent...

Beef Stroganoff (in the slow cooker!)

Beef Stroganoff (in the slow cooker!)

I love Beef Stroganoff. I also love dinners I can throw in the crockpot while I go off and do something else. And, I really love coming home in the fall to a house that smells like somebody has been cooking Beef Stroganoff while I was gone. No doubt you will, too....

Tuscan Chicken Tortellini

Tuscan Chicken Tortellini

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...

Garlic Butter Flank Steak with Skillet Potatoes

Garlic Butter Flank Steak with Skillet Potatoes

Flank steak isn’t something I remember having growing up. I rarely see it in restaurants, though I suspect my local Mexican place uses it for my favorite dish there: Tacos al Carbon. I’ve not cooked with flank steak more than a couple of times; I have a phobia about...

Margarita Chicken

Margarita Chicken

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...

Sheet Pan Pork Teriyaki Skewers

Sheet Pan Pork Teriyaki Skewers

**Lazy Chef Edition** So there I was planning this grilled-pork-teriyaki-satay-situation-with-peanut-sauce-and-everything to share with all of you. But I was totally dragging my feet and it wasn’t getting done. Y’all know I’m a charcoal grill girl, and that’s a whole...

Gulf Coast Shrimp Roast with Creole Butter

Gulf Coast Shrimp Roast with Creole Butter

Call it Low Country Boil, Frogmore Stew, or whatever else you want, we all know it and enjoy it. And no wonder; with corn, potatoes, sausage, and shrimp it’s pretty hard to go wrong. I love the idea of tossing everything in a 20 gallon stockpot outside and ending up...

Cheese Enchiladas

Cheese Enchiladas

These Cheese Enchiladas were our very best seller at the shop, month in and month out. Prep Cook Extraordinaire Todd would come in in the morning, assess the Cheese Enchilada situation in the coolers out front, and get to work. I don’t know exactly how many Cheese...

Tomato and Artichoke Galette

Tomato and Artichoke Galette

Everybody I know loves a tomato pie. It’s summertime right now and no one will shut up about it. Tomato pie this, tomato pie that, etc, etc, and then they look at me, and I’m all like . . . What??? I don’t make that kind of tomato pie. Those of you who have been...

Roasted Eggplant Parmesan

Roasted Eggplant Parmesan

Just because a dish has been around for a couple of hundred years, doesn’t mean I can’t fiddle with it, right? The modern version of what we call Eggplant Parmesan appeared in the Italian aristocrat/gourmand Ippolito Cavalcanti's cookbook, Cucina Teorico-Pratica,...

Pineapple Fried Rice

Pineapple Fried Rice

I should warn those of you who are looking for genuine Thai food that this Pineapple Fried Rice isn’t especially authentic. This is a recipe I cobbled together from many different sources, and then adapted it to our US Gulf Coast pantries. It’s delicious, though. We...

Meatloaf Cottage Pie

Meatloaf Cottage Pie

I’m still fielding recipe requests, and this recipe has not only been requested, it was the source of much amusement in the catering shop. Meatloaf Cottage Pie is very, very, tasty, please don’t get me wrong. I will happily eat it any day of the week and lots of our...
