Chicken Korma from Jamie’s Food Revolution
January 16, 2010 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
This very mild curry has a creamy mild taste and will likely be quite acceptable to young children. The book says you could also make this with shrimp! My daughter isn’t a huge fan of onions but she said they tasted good in this. I took my 15 year old to the bookstore today as [...]

Tori Soboru: Ginger Spiced Chicken

I promised my daughter I’d only do one new Asian dish this week and since I have more time to explore new things on weekends, tonight was it! I made this gingery spiced chicken from Washoku: Recipes from the Japanese Home Kitchen. Of course, she LOVED it! I made this then served it over rice [...]
Baked 5 Spice Chicken Legs
December 9, 2009 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
This delicious chicken is from HapaBento’s 5 Spice Baked Chicken. I don’t pack proper Bentos but love the idea and enjoy the generally quick and easy recipes and the philosophy of eating multiple colors at each meal. (As an example of my not proper Bentos, today’s lunch was leftover cheese pizza, grape tomatoes, and sliced [...]
Chicken Salad with Curry, Apples, and Raisins

I’ve been remiss in my blogging. You’d think summer would be the time of taking it easy, but trying to get my “day job” work done at home when the kids are out of school is taking its toll. Cooking has been more repeats than experimentation and what new recipes I’ve tried, I’ve been remiss [...]
Chicken Coconut Soup

I ended up doing two recipes from The Minimalist Cooks Dinner by Mark Bittman last night, both of which I’d cooked before. I really like this book and need to remember to get it out more often. The recipes are generally quite suitable for weeknight cooking, with a lot of fish and seafood recipes. Since [...]
Sauteed Chicken with Olives, Capers, and Onions
February 13, 2005 by Ellen · Leave a Comment
The first time I made a piccata sauce I was up at Sea Ranch with a friend, staying in a rental house. We had some leftover boneless pork chops and I searched through some Internet recipe sites looking for ideas. For some reason we had capers, and an onion, and a lemon. It’s tough cooking [...]
Catalina Apricot Chicken

I was looking for a way to bake some bone-in chicken last night and wanted something other than my usuals so went thumbing through a few “community fundraiser” cookbooks. I had picked up half a dozen of them at the last library book sale for about 25 cents each. Eventually I’ll donate most of the [...]
Fried Chicken, Asparagus, Baked Potato

I had bought real buttermilk recently. (Usually I use the powdered stuff for pancakes and coffee cakes and such.) I had also thawed a whole chicken. I was origanally planning on roasting it whole, but upon spying the buttermilk I remembered a great chicken cutlet recipe with buttermilk and thought I could do something similar [...]
Oven Fried Chicken

Rather than buy those packaged flavored crumbs to bake your chicken or pork in, make up your own flavored breadcrumbs. This makes enough to season two chickens, cut into pieces. Mix it up ahead of time and keep in the pantry. 2 cups dried breadcrumbs 1 tsp salt 2 tsp paprika 1 tsp celery salt [...]
