Clinton Kelly’s Pan Fried Chicken with Brown Butter Caper Sauce

It’s easy and you feel like you have just eaten a meal prepared by a chef which of course is you. Most of the time we take simple ingredients like oranges, shallots, capers, chicken, and parsley for granted. You can actually make a delicious meal….

Chicken-Liver Crostini

I am a huge fan of chicken liver and this is the most delicious chopped liver that I’ve ever had. The next time I prepare this, I will use my food processor, this time around I wanted to feel the texture of the ingredients and add sage next time. This would be great for tapas too. Great flavors!!!

Linguine with Clams

I think one of my favorite comfort food when the weather gets cold, raining is having a nice bowl of linguine with clams, crusty bread, and a bottle of wine. I recently visited friends of mine and for dinner John made linguine with clams.

Roasted Artichoke Salad

Gorgeously scrumptious and whimsically tantalizing. This is an excellent salad, the presentation is beautiful. Nice, simple and elegant. I watched Ina prepare this salad and loved all the ingredients. I don’t understand why I never made my own artichoke salad now it’s no longer an excuse. Well, the family loved it.

Turkey Meatballs

The weather is changing from summer to fall and I have been craving good comfort food, consumption of a nice red wine, crusty warm bread, and salad. I recently watched an episode of Food Network “Food Feuds with Michael Symon – meatballs in Philadelphia.” I love meatballs especially when it is prepared correctly. Speaking for myself, I have been in search for a good turkey meatball recipe and was lucky enough to taste it three years ago at my niece’s home.

Margherita Omelette

Woke up this morning craving for omelet. I wanted to create something that reminds of Italy. I’m taking inventory of what I have in the fridge and it looks like I have tomatoes, green onions, fresh basil, mozzarella cheese, eggs, and heavy cream. Let’s make Margherita omelet. I think it will be good.

Egg Yolk Bacon Pasta

I will prepare Carbonara but it’s a little too rich and wanted to make something similar. I will make an easy version of Carbonara by browning Applewood bacon, a dash of pepper flakes, Barilla Plus Spaghetti, chopped Italian parsley, freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese and egg yolk.

New York Steak, Baby Lamb Chop with Chimichurri and Aioli Sauce

Add ¼ of parsley, ¼ of cilantro, and ¼ of mint; blend until incorporated. Add remaining herbs in 3 more additions, pureeing until almost smooth after each addition. Can be made 1 day ahead, cover and chill.

Tuna Salad

Instead of using mayonnaise I am substituting Greek yogurt which gives it a tangy flavor, Dijon mustard, ground fennel seeds and fresh chopped Italian parsley. I squeezed tuna to extract all the water.

Fried Catfish Steak

When I shop at 99 Ranch I never know what I’m going to purchase. They have so many types of fresh fish to choose from! I found catfish steaks and can’t wait to prepare it. I love fresh catfish and prepare immediately with my favorite recipe fried catfish.
