We have another winner! I was afraid that the chicken was going to dry out because we had to put dinner on hold for a little over an hour, but I dropped the heat to 250°F, then bumped the temp to 425°F to crisp up the skin. This is how I normally make it withContinue reading “Sweet Heat Spatchcock Chicken”

Sausage & Shrimp Jambalaya
I love jambalaya! It’s easy to make, cheap and packed with flavor! I opted for sausage and shrimp this time and it didn’t disappoint. I didn’t have a lot of shrimp left to use, so I chopped up what I had. 1 lb. Shrimp; peeled & deveined 1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning 1 tablespoon BaconContinue reading “Sausage & Shrimp Jambalaya”
Baked Chicken Parmesan
The husband requested a pasta dish for dinner and Chicken Parm with spaghetti sounded perfect! It’s a great weeknight meal, but the deep fried nature of the dish can be a bit unhealthy. We wanted a lighter option for dinners and this delivered! 3 large Chicken Breasts 2 cups Flour 2 cups Panko Breadcrumbs 1Continue reading “Baked Chicken Parmesan”
Baked Tandoori Chicken
Tandoori Chicken is kind of a pain to make at home if you don’t have a Tandoori oven, but dang it’s so worth it! The smoked paprika is key for the traditional tandoori smokiness. So delicious! Bone in-skin on chicken works the best, but this recipe also works well with chicken breast for a lighter option.Continue reading “Baked Tandoori Chicken”
Chicken Cottage Pie
I know, I know. Cottage pie is filled with beef and not chicken. But I love to switch it up from time to time. Whatever you’d like to call it, it was stinking amazing! I actually ended up liking it more than the traditional cottage or shepherd’s pie. Filling: 2 large Chicken Breasts; cubed 1Continue reading “Chicken Cottage Pie”
Herb Chicken & Bacon Mushroom Gravy

You can add more herbs to the gravy if you’d like to amp up the flavor. Chicken: 2 Large ChickenContinue reading “Herb Chicken & Bacon Mushroom Gravy”
Chicken Fajita Salad
I had a hankering for a hearty salad. Chicken Fajita Salad to the rescue! It also works great with shrimp, steak or ground beef/turkey. You can use taco seasoning, but I love using smoky chile powders so I made my own. The Chipotle Ranch can be made by mixing bottled Ranch with Chipotle and SmokedContinue reading “Chicken Fajita Salad”
Soy Lime Glazed Party Wings
Happy Wing Wednesday! I had some Soy Lime Glaze leftover from dinner last night, so Soy Lime Glazed Wings it is! I added a drizzle of Sriracha Aioli to kick the heat up a bit. So delicious! Chicken Wings: 4 lbs Chicken Wings; tips removed 1 teaspoon Ginger Powder 2 Tablespoons Smoked Paprika Salt andContinue reading “Soy Lime Glazed Party Wings”
Soy Lime Glazed Chicken Breasts
It’s been pretty cold and rainy so I opted to bake the chicken instead of smoking them. Plus I forgot that I’d ran out of wood pellets. Whoops! Chicken: 3 large Chicken Breasts ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder ½ teaspoon Smoked Paprika Salt and Pepper to taste — Sauce: ¼ cup Lime Juice ¼ cup SoyContinue reading “Soy Lime Glazed Chicken Breasts”
