Chicken Marsala w/ Mascarpone
This is something that i tried , i went browsing not too long ago and found this marsala recipe . The chicken marsala that i usually cook is awesome , and i love the taste . But i thought i should give this one a try since it was a recipe from a real italian chef , Giada de Laurentiis . So i figured it should be good .. Well .. i can’t say that it’s bad either , but this one though was def. richer than the regular chicken marsala i cook . I personally love the regular one , without the cheese . But anyway , i am…

Fiesta Chicken Fajita Salad
This would be a great meal for hot summer days . And that’s what we had tonight , it’s super simple and easy . It requires salsa , if you do want to make it even easier , you can always get a jar of store bought salsa , but i made my own , since they’re not hard at all and you can adjust the taste to your preference . Other than that .. just a can of black beans and sweet corn and chicken breasts , and you’ll be ready for your salad ! For home made salsa , you need : (if you buy store bought ,…

Chicken Saltimbocca
I have been wanting to try this chicken saltimbocca for quite some time , but i kept postponing it because i thought it’d be too hard to roll a thin chicken breast into a jelly roll style , i would think it’d be easily crumbled and stuff . Well , it’s actually not as hard as i thought , but a little messy though .. my stove was pretty messy from the grease splattered here and there . The result was really worth it . While i was cooking this , my 7 years old son , asked me ” Mom , what are you cooking ? ” I answered…

Chicken Salad with Black Beans and Tomatoes ( Southwestern Salad )
Not too long ago i had some salad with black beans , and to my surprised , i kinda enjoyed it . I wasn’t so much into black beans , even when we go to Chipotle , i always skipped the black beans and always picked lima beans instead . My husband doesn’t mind black beans , although he switches around between black and lima beans . And we’ve been trying to add a lot of salad as dinner menu in our weekday dinner . Just the other day he said about having salad for dinner again , so i thought why not trying to make southwestern salad . I…

Sausage and Cabbage
This is a quick meal to fix , i wasn’t really in the mood to make too much mess , so cabbage and sausage it is !! I really don’t have much to say about this dish , a long time ago , i just threw in some sausage in a cabbage that i sauteed , just because i thought it would be nice to have a little meaty flavour .. Since then i’ve never really cooked it anymore .. that was back when i didn’t really know much about cooking . So , years later , now , i just realized that , there was a dish such as…

Chicken Piccata
Chicken piccata is super easy meal that you can fix within half an hour and you should be able to have your meals ready . People who loves lemons should def.try this dish , it is lemony , tangy , but you can always tone it down , by adding a little sugar . I also used chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts , but i am sure it’ll be healthier if you use chicken breasts and omit the butter . You need : 2 lbs of boneless chicken , use meat tenderizer , pound it flat salt and pepper flour to dredge the chicken 2/3 cup of fresh lemon…

Fresh Vegetables Soup
Living in the south give us the advantage of having fresh vegetables almost all year round , not to mention it’s cheap ! Back when we were living up north , we could only do this during spring and summer , where we got to buy from farmer’s market at a great price . During winter time , it’ll be too expensive and the vegetables wouldn’t be as good as when they’re in season . So , given that , we decided to make fresh veggies soup tonight , and it has all the yummy vegetables in it ,and it’s so easy to make too . Preparation doesn’t take that…
