Meyer Lemon Chicken

January 4, 2012

Pin It Hi there! Remember me? Yeah, I was afraid you’d all forgotten who I was since it has been so long since my last post. I took a little time off during Christmas to enjoy family and holidays and it was a wonderful break. But now I’m back and ready to get started with [...]

Chicken Pot Pie

Butter Roasted Chicken

August 16, 2011

I’ve roasted many a chicken in my time. Many. First because it’s one of the most delicious meals you can serve your family. And you can change the seasonings to suit your and your family’s tastes. Second because it’s just so easy. Season up the chicken, pop it in the oven and come back later [...]

Just in case you’ve never had Chicken à la King before, it’s another one of those delicious old recipes that people just don’t seem to make very much these days.

Bacon Roasted Chicken Thighs

April 20, 2011

Chicken thighs. With bacon. And potatoes. Roasted. Enough said. But seriously, doesn’t bacon make most anything better? Crispy, salty bacon has to be one of the most perfect tastes in the world. I’ve often said that I believe bacon must be what they greet you with when you arrive in Heaven. And you can eat all you [...]

Southern Fried Quail

January 14, 2011

My experience growing up in rural south Georgia from the late 1950′s through the early 70′s was a completely different world from today. Granted, we were somewhat isolated in our little corner of the state. There was one small town (pop. about 2000) and the rest of the citizens were widely scattered throughout the various [...]

Turkey Tetrazzini

December 1, 2010

I may be a few days late with this post. Especially since everyone should have discarded all the leftover turkey by now. But, I’m posting it anyway because, well, it’s really good and I’m thinking perhaps a few of you may have frozen some turkey for later? Besides you can always substitute leftover chicken. But before I start [...]

I have a recipe for you today that I’m willing to bet no more than a dozen of you have ever heard of. Maybe fewer even. (Miss P – you don’t count!) This is my grandmother, Polly’s, Chicken Jallop. I’ve done some internet research on Chicken Jallop and have found very few references. One reference [...]

Smothered Barbecued Chicken

March 19, 2010

I wonder how many people have ever heard of smothered chicken? In case you haven’t, it’s chicken that has been either deep fried or pan fried, then a gravy is made and the chicken is returned to the pan to “smother” in the gravy for an hour or so. The chicken becomes so, so juicy and falling-off-the-bone [...]
