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 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
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.

Quinoa Crusted Chicken Schnitzel
with chopped tomato garlic bruschetta mixture I love chicken schnitzel, it’s one of my favourite guilty indulgences. No guilt with this one. It is baked, full of good nutrients, loaded with flavour and is a sure winner each time! Quinoa flakes replace the traditional breadcrumbs and can be found in any whole foods store. Make it with the Chopped Tomato Garlic Bruschetta Mixture or not! Either way, you will love it!
