Whole Roasted Chicken with Fennel and Fingerling Potatoes

Chicken & Turkey

Whole Roasted Chicken with Fennel and Fingerling Potatoes

A whole chicken is so simple to make and easy to cut. Leaving it whole makes the end product so juicy. However, you can also do the same recipe in a chicken cut in quarters or eights. This chicken is great as leftovers for about 4 days. You can do this recipe with a boneless, skin-on turkey breast as well, same cooking time.

Tuscan Chicken Under a Brick

Tuscan Chicken Under a Brick

Cooking chicken under a brick keeps the chicken juicy by cooking it faster. I recommend using bone-in chicken but this works with boneless also. I keep 4-5 bricks outside, near the grill at all times. Cover them with clean foil when you need them. It is also a good idea to pre-heat the bricks with the BBQ.

Chicken, Beef or Tofu Satay

Chicken & Turkey

Chicken, Beef or Tofu Satay

Satays are the perfect finger food; but don’t save them for a party, they are a great weeknight meal. The marinade is super easy to make and the protein takes less than an hour to marinate. I like to skewer the meat AFTER it is cooked, because that way the bamboo skewers don’t burn! Serve with Sweet Chili Garlic Sauce, DeliciousDish or Tahini “Peanut” Sauce, DeliciousDish.

Chicken Tinga | Black Bean | Tomatillo Salsa

Chicken & Turkey

Chicken Tinga | Black Bean | Tomatillo Salsa

Chicken tinga is a very common weeknight meal in most Mexican homes. It is considered comfort food and one of the first meals most cooks will learn. It was served to me with refried beans and salsa on a soft corn tortilla with a side of rice. So comforting. This is one of my kid’s favourite meals

Almond Crusted Baked Chicken Tenders

Finally, chicken fingers that I feel good about eating!! The almond flour makes these chicken fingers sweet while the chopped almonds add the crunch that you would normally get from frying the fingers.

Sumac-Spiced Roasted Chicken with Preserved Lemon, Onions

and pine nuts Sumac is a vibrant red berry found in the Middle East. Dark burgundy in colour, it is dried and ground to a coarse powder. The flavour is lemony, earthy and slightly sour. It can be found at any specialty market. Preserved lemons can be found in a specialty market, or you can make the Delicious Dish Preserved Lemons but plan ahead because they will take three to four weeks to ferment.

Chicken Souvlaki with Pita and Tzatziki

When is the last time you had a really good chicken souvlaki, dripping with tzatziki and oozing with lemony garlic flavours? Me…at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant (or Casse-Croûte, as they say) in Montreal, the home (away from Greece) of the late-night souvlaki!

Simple Oven-Fried Chicken

Chicken & Turkey

Simple Oven-Fried Chicken

Full disclosure, I love fried chicken. There, I said it! This is a healthier version of the old classic. There are a few non- negotiable steps that you must take in order for the chicken to taste crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside— specifically, brining the chicken. Make sure you plan ahead. Feel free to double this recipe; you will need two baking sheets because you do not want to crowd the pan. This recipe was inspired by Amanda and Judy Hesser.

Make it with the Chopped Tomato Garlic Bruschetta Mixture or not! Either way, you will love it!
