Making a full dinner in a short amount of time is no easy task. But chicken is so versatile that it can be made in pretty much any way imaginable—and quickly, too. If I’m being honest, I didn’t have a ton of time to come up with a new recipe this week, so I was looking for something that didn’t require much effort but could … Continue reading The Easiest Chicken Dinner You’ll Ever Make
There are few things I love in this world more than cheese, but buffalo chicken might be one of them. The other day I was trying to think of new appetizers for Easter (I know it’s still several weeks away, but I’m a planner), and I knew I wanted a change from the standard buffalo chicken dip served with chips. I thought about making some … Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Cheesy Garlic Bread
I don’t love chicken, but I do love cream cheese. Honestly, I could probably just eat cream cheese right out of the container—but I don’t (usually). However, a cream cheese mixture cooked over chicken? That’s the type of protein I can get behind. This might not be the healthiest meal on the planet, but I’ll do a few extra situps at the gym tomorrow—tonight’s dinner … Continue reading Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken
Stuffed chicken is one of the only types of chicken I enjoy. This week, I decided to make a chipotle stuffing to roll inside of thin chicken. It’s a simple recipe that doesn’t take long to make, so it’s a perfect weeknight dinner. I love stuffed chicken, but I went for something spicy this week because, if I’m being honest, I was running out of … Continue reading Spicy Stuffed Chicken
Any time I get together with friends, I always make buffalo chicken dip. And even though it’s a staple in the friend group, I want to switch it up every now and then. This week’s recipe was almost a sandwich modeled after my favorite meal at a restaurant near my shore house: The Santa Fe chicken cheesesteak. But the more I thought about it, the … Continue reading Santa Fe Cheesy Chicken Dip
The only time I can eat chicken is if it’s stuffed with something I like (or if it’s fried, or in the form of chicken nuggets, or whatever). For this recipe, I was originally going to make chicken stuffed with spinach and artichoke dip. But then I thought, “That’s been done so many times.” I decided to think a little more unconventionally—I created a new … Continue reading Stuffed Sundried Tomato and Basil Chicken
It’s hard to stray from my love of pasta, but I can’t forget to incorporate protein into my diet. I’ve been thinking a lot about a pasta dish that included both (but knew I couldn’t make another mac and cheese recipe…), so I thought some kind of Tex-Mex dish would be the way to go. I’m not a big fan of ground beef, so I … Continue reading Hearty Tex-Mex Chicken Casserole
Last week, I went to Bahama Breeze with a friend because I found out they had piña coladas for $5 and half priced apps at happy hour—which, according to experts, is a great way to spend a weeknight. Need I say more? It reminded me of a trip I took a few months ago to Turks and Caicos. (Alright, a restaurant with a view of … Continue reading baked coconut chicken with mango salsa
Right now, my alma mater (Seton Hall University) is about to make a go in the NCAA Tournament, and this weekend, they competed in the Big East Tournament (and suffered a tear-jerking loss to Villanova). Anyway, game days call for game day apps, and my sister gave me the idea to try my hand at some honey garlic Parmesan wings. Sweet honey pairs well with salty soy … Continue reading honey garlic Parmesan wings
I try my hardest to love chicken, but it’s not easy. I can’t explain what my beef is (no pun intended), but unless it’s fried, I don’t want it. But I get that fried chicken isn’t exactly the healthiest option, so sometimes I have to channel my creativity and create a grilled chicken recipe that even I would eat. This stuffed grilled chicken is filled … Continue reading stuffed grilled chicken in white wine & garlic sauce
simply delicious.
