Neena’s Company Chicken

Have I told you about Neena? Neena is my mom. Neena is what all of her grandchildren call her. It started when my daughter, L, was a baby and tried to say her name but it came out sounding like Nee-Nah. And she’s been Neena ever since.
Neena is a fabulous cook and southern cuisine is [...]

I found this recipe for Bistro Chicken on the Kraft Foods web site a while back and since I happened to have some chicken breasts on hand I thought I’d give it a try. It turned out to be a keeper! It was simple and quick to put together and uses ingredients that most of [...]

Another one of BeeBop’s favorites! Red Rice. Based on the famed Charleston Red Rice. Sort of. Well, kinda. It’s similar anyway. If you’re a fan of Low Country cooking, please indulge me. I know this is not the accurate, authentic Charleston Red Rice. It does have one thing in common, however. It’s good!
When BeeBop was [...]

These last few weeks when the weather and the leaves have been changing, I’ve been all about soups and stews! And this weekend I really went back to the basics with this chicken noodle soup and homemade chicken broth.
You don’t need me to tell you about the wonderfulness of homemade chicken noodle soup. It’s said [...]

Chicken and Dumplings

This is one of BeeBop’s all-time favorite dishes and one of mine, too. Chicken and Dumplings brings up all kinds of good memories from childhood. I really don’t know anyone who doesn’t remember their mama making chicken and dumplings. Just mention it and people get this wistful, longing look like they’re going back in time in their minds. [...]

Chicken Cacciatore

If you asked me to pick one cuisine that was my absolute favorite (other than traditional southern, of course), I’m sure it would have to be Italian. I just enjoy everything about it. So much variety! All the different pastas! All the different sauces! Lovely sausages, tasty pizzas. The wonderful ways they treat vegetables. I’m certainly [...]

Chicken Kay

July 13, 2009

The inspiration for this recipe came from two sources. The first is one of mine and BeeBop’s favorite restaurants for a quick, casual dinner - Carrabba’s Italian Grill. It’s not 5-star dining by any means, but I actually think it’s pretty darned good. I usually have the Spiedino di Mare, shrimp and scallops grilled with a lemon [...]

Orange-Rosemary Grilled Chicken

June 25, 2009

“Summer time and the living is easy.” Really? Easy, maybe; HOT, yes! Today was the tenth day in a row with high temperatures above 90 degrees and humidity to match. But that’s really just typical for the deep south at this time of year. Hot and humid. So humid that there’s a hazy look in [...]

Salsa Chicken – Quick Weeknight Dinner

April 21, 2009

 

This recipe is a good choice for a week night when you’re pressed for time but still want to put something homemade on the table.  I chose to use thighs because they tend to stay moist through the longer cooking time needed in the oven. However, you could surely use whatever pieces you and your [...]

[BB] Chinese Chicken Salad

April 9, 2009

Our first Barefoot Bloggers challenge for April is Ina Garten’s Chinese Chicken Salad and it was selected by McKenzie of Kenzie’s Kitchen. I have seen the episode a couple of times in which Ina makes this salad and I so wanted to like it. I knew it had some components that were not going to be high [...]
