I saw this recipe for Mexican Chicken Cornbread Casserole fly by my social media stream last week and KNEW I needed to convert it into something that was allergen friendly. It hits so many of my happy buttons in terms of flavor palette and combinations of stuff I love to eat. So I’ve adapted it to be […]

Gluten Free Pretzel Crusted Chicken Breasts
I’ve been wanting to make Gluten Free Pretzel Crusted Chicken ever since I first tasted Glutino’s gluten free pretzels. They have a deliciously Ritz-like flavor that I still have aspirations of using to top my poppyseed chicken (which I haven’t figured out how to convert to gluten free AND dairy free yet), but either way, I […]
Gluten Free Chicken Croquettes
This recipe is an adaptation for Alton Brown’s recipe for Tuna Croquettes. I wound up trying it with canned chicken and it has become, essentially, the grown up chicken nugget of our household. It’s a great, tasty solution to “what’s for dinner?” when you didn’t have a chance to thaw anything. Ingredients: 1 12 oz. can […]
Tequila Lime Chicken Thighs
Chicken thighs get a bad rap. In our chicken breast obsessed world, folks seem to think that chicken thighs are horribly fatty and bad for you. Not so. If you remove the skin and fat, they aren’t bad at all, particularly compared to the ginormous multi-serving chicken breasts that seem to show up in our […]
Gluten Free Friday: Chicken and Mushroom Pot Pie
Who doesn’t love chicken pot pie? It’s one of those classic comfort foods. I confess, I actually love the ones straight from the freezer section. But it’s one of those that doesn’t just scream “gluten free” OR healthy. Now I have a light and healthy version using Phyllo dough for me, but that doesn’t meet […]
Mix It Up Monday: Cook’s Country Chicken Riggies
I got this recipe in my inbox from my Cook’s Country newsletter. I liked the idea of it and have had it on my To Try list for quite a while. This was delayed somewhat by my not being able to find cherry peppers (which I hadn’t even heard of). Ultimately found some at Kroger […]
Chicken and Sausage Paella
Paella is one of those things I’ve learned to love fairly recently in my foodie life. It’s a concept that’s great for using up whatever you have on hand. In this case that was some bell pepper, sausage, and chicken. And some other stuff. It’s a delicious, earthy sort of dinner. Servings: 3 at 628.73 […]
Chicken Empanadas and Mexican Chicken Spaghetti
So there’s nothing traditional about these empanadas. In fact, I don’t know that I’ve ever had actual empanadas. But when I got my new set of dough presses (which I bought for making dumplings), I knew I had to do something to try them out. Empanadas seemed just the thing. These make for a […]
Mix It Up Monday: Chicken Caccitore
Chicken caccitore is one of those dishes that most people have heard of and don’t actually know what it is. I’ve never actually had it, but had it pop into my head when I was doing my menu planning for the week, so I started prowling around on Food Blog Search to see what other […]
Quick Fix Salsa Verde Chicken Burrito Skillet
In keeping with the whole one-skillet meal thing lately, I opted to adapt my recipe for Pulled Pork Burrito Skillet to work with some leftover roast chicken and a jar of salsa verde. The end result was delicious and easy, from fridge to table in fifteen minutes. Now THAT’s what I call a week night […]
