    Udon Chicken Noodle Soup with Shitake and Kale

    April 17, 2019 / No Comments

    Who doesn’t love chicken noodle soup…well me! It sounds crazy, but I always think that chicken noodle soup itself is a bit boring. But, this udon chicken noodle soup with shitake and kale takes that dish to a new level. Like everyone, we are often pressed for time around here. But, if you have some chicken broth and leftover chicken in your fridge, this quick little udon chicken noodle soup comes together in minutes! In fact, I made this so quickly tonight that I didn’t exactly record measurements, so my recipe will be a rough guideline, but it is super easy and fairly forgiving I’m sure. Homemade Chicken Broth I…

    Spicy Sriracha Chicken Kebabs

    April 17, 2019 / No Comments

    These Spicy Sriracha Chicken Kebabs feel like a sophisticated version of buffalo chicken wings. Beautifully glazed chicken kebabs, marinated and then slathered in a spicy sriracha sauce. Add this to your next BBQ and watch them disappear! My husband and I just returned from a little 5 day escape in Mexico. It was a super short trip with only 3 full days there so we really just took advantage of the chance to relax and enjoy the sun. Typically I’m not a fan of all-inclusive resorts, as I’m a self-admitted food snob and I hate the tourist trap. However, the resort we choose for this trip had pretty decent food…

    Healthy Homemade Ramen with Chicken

    April 1, 2019 / No Comments

    This Healthy Homemade Ramen with Chicken is quick and easy to make and the kids love it! Back in the day when I used to eat Ramen, it was the packaged store-bought instant noodles. Ahhh the Ramen of my teenage years. In fact, even when I first moved away from home, this quick instant meal did sometimes make an appearance. I don’t buy those anymore, thankfully. I’m sure they have like zero nutritional value, and homemade ramen is pretty simple to make using a good chicken broth, with a few lovely additions and is far superior in taste and nutrition. I made homemade chicken broth the other day to use…

    Lemongrass Chicken Satay with Coconut Rice

    March 20, 2019 / No Comments

    Delicious Lemongrass Chicken Satay grilled on the BBQ and served with a spicy peanut dipping sauce all over a bed of creamy coconut rice. Serve it up with some sliced mango, cucumber, Thai basil, chili and extra sauce for dipping.  The weather is beautiful outside! Spring is officially here in Calgary. I’m sure that we will have a few more ‘freak’ storms before we are out of the woods, but for now I am going to enjoy this beautiful warm weather. I always get excited when winter comes to an end, and one sure sign of that is firing up the BBQ again and cooking in the great outdoors. My…

    Baked Chicken Parmesan Meatballs

    February 3, 2019 / No Comments

    Are you watching the Super Bowl today? These Baked Chicken Parmesan Meatballs would be a great snack to make if you are. My husband I would say is a bit ‘football-obsessed’. As for me, I really don’t pay too much attention to it. In fact I mostly just watch for the half-time show to see who is performing. These would be a great snack though if you were hosting a bunch of football fans. This recipe is inspired by one that I saw a while back by Alton Brown.I thought it was a brilliant idea for a spin on the traditional chicken parmesan. I’ve baked the meatballs here today, which…

    Who doesn’t like a bowl of a hot spicy noodle soup? If you do, you need to try this Kuching Style Laska.  Just a warning this soup is a ‘labor of love’.  If you want a simple and quick recipe I would recommend you try my Simple Miso Noodle Soup My husband and I have been watching the Parts Unknown series with Anthony Bourdain on Netflix lately. It’s a really well done series if you haven’t watched it yet. Ever since we’ve been watching Anthony has had us craving a bowl of hot and spicy noodle soup. You often see him somewhere in southeastern Asia, sitting on a small plastic…

    Chicken in Milk

    September 18, 2018 / No Comments

    It was a busy weekend and I was super tired out today and will admit the last thing I felt like doing was cooking. This Chicken in Milk recipe is a fantastic one when you are feeling that way, as it comes together pretty quickly and without much effort, yet it produces pretty fabulous results. The original recipe comes from Jamie Oliver. I haven’t modified it really much besides the fact that I only use one lemon (I think the original recipe calls for 2). It is one of my favorite ways to prepare chicken. It sounds a little odd at first glance to cook a chicken in milk, the…

    Spicy Thai Coconut Chicken Soup

    It’s the weekend, and although we have a jammed packed weekend of carting my youngest son off to hockey games, and I had to work a little showing some lovely clients homes in the area, I did manage to sneak in a good 4 hours at home this Saturday afternoon. Although I really should have been cleaning my house…I decided to rummage through the fridge instead and try to figure out a few meals worth of the remaining groceries to be used up. It was actually rather productive. I like to rummage through my fridge just before a grocery shop and see how I can use up what is remaining.…
