Chicken Parmesan
Chicken Parmesan
Pasta
When cooking this Chicken Parmesan, my kitchen is transformed to a quaint little town in Southern Italy. On my cutting board, you'll find: tender chicken cutlets, tomatoes, onions, garlic, basil, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese. I lightly bread the cutlets, then saute and bake the chicken to ensure luscious, juicy meat with a crunchy exterior. Served over al dente spaghetti noodles, the cutlet is topped with fresh marinara and cheese. Everything is homemade, from the bread crumbs to the sauce. Delizioso!
Tuesday, March 27Corn Chowder
Bread
Traditionally, chowders tend to turn out thick and weighted-down. My "secret" to achieve a fantastic, "not too heavy" texture to this delicious soup involves sweet white corn and a little half-and-half. I add red potatoes, more corn, and a touch of bacon to this sweet, succulent base to create a creamy, flavorful, and beautiful chowder.

Succulent Old-Fashion Roast Pork
Smashed Potatoes
For all of those "Pork Skeptics" out there, who believe that all pork turns out dry and unappetizing, you have to give this dish a try. Cooking all afternoon at a low heat creates a moist, savory pork roast. On it's own, this meat melts in your mouth! My gravy has just enough zing to it that it only enhances the natural flavor of the pork. My chunky, hearty smashed red potatoes makes the perfect companion.

Sesame Chicken with White Rice
Chocolate Dipped Fortune Cookies
Sesame chicken is a Chinese takeout favorite. Everyone seems to crave these crispy pieces of chicken tossed in a sweet, rich sauce made of ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, and a touch of chili paste for just enough spice to wake-up your taste buds. Topped with roasted sesame seeds and green onions, this dish rivals any Chinese restaurant. Finish off this delectable dinner with my chocolate-dipped fortune cookies.
