Yesterday was our Thanksgivng. Dinner was a traditional Roast Turkey Dinner. We had dinner next door with our wonderful neighbours Clif and Barb. Clif bought the turkey, a fresh 14 pound free range and gave it too me Saturday. I presalted it , wrapped it in plastic wrap and into the fridge it went….

Chicken Piccata with a side of Pasta
This has to be one of the quickest and easiest dinners to put together. On the table in less than 30 minutes. I defrosted boneless chicken breasts to cook Friday but by the time I got home from work I wasn’t in the mood so I made a pot of Potato Leek soup instead. That…
Moe’s Diner………….. Daily Special
Before heading off to work on Sunday I roasted two small chickens. Just so I could make hot chicken sandwiches for dinner. And you can’t have hot chicken sandwiches without homemade fries and of course canned peas. I know, I’m sorry, but canned peas are a tradition and ALWAYS served on the side with hot…
Chicken Breasts Perigord
Dinner tonight was Chicken Breasts with a mushroom duxelle stuffed under the skin. This is an old standby recipe one that I haven’t made in a while. Perfect for a dinner party. The chicken can be stuffed earlier in the day and then roasted just in time for dinner. The duxelle flavour permeates the meat….
Asian Style Chicken Wings with a Spicy Garlic Ginger Sauce
I’m not a big fan of sweet bbq sauces on ribs or wings. In fact I dislike sweet bbq sauces immensely (sounds nicer than hate). But I don’t mind garlic honey Asian sauces. So when I saw these wings on Foodgawker today I thought I would give them a try. Like the Ravenous Couple, who…
Chinese on the menu again
This is quickly becoming a favourite. Ken Hom’s Classic Chinese Lemon Chicken. I made it for the first time about a month ago and again last night. I suspect it will be on the menu often. Besides how good it tastes it is relatively easy to put together after getting home from work. The lemon…
Lori’s Chicken Francaise
Tried something new last night. Lori’s Chicken Francaise. You can find the recipe on Lori’s blog All That Splatters. I’ve been meaning to make this ever since June when Lori first posted the recipe. I shouldn’t have waited so long. This is one of those dishes that is delicious and very simple to put together…
Hot Chicken Sandwich
This is the ultimate “Diner” meal and a favourite of both Moe and I. I know I have posted this meal before, but this blog isa food diary and some favourite meals will show up on a regular or semi-regular basis. I don’t always make this dinner from leftovers either. I roasted a whole chicken…
Chicken on the Grill
I presalted a chicken on Wednesday with the intentions of roasting it yesterday. Plans changed. I cooked the prawns yestersday instead so that left the chicken for tonight’s dinner. I split it up the back and layed it out flat on the grill. Chicken was rubbed with fresh garlic, and lots of fresh ground black…
Too Hot to Cook
It was over 90°F here yesterday. And no air conditioning either. I’m not complaining. I love hot summer days. But, it was too hot to turn the oven on inside the house. I have a small Waring Convection Oven that I don’t use often, but, it came in handy yesterday. I moved it outside and…
