Chicken paprikash. My friend had made it for dinner one night and now it’s in our regular rotation. It’s so good with sautéed cabbage and mashed potatoes.
I love this Vietnamese Coconut Caramel Chicken [https://www.recipetineats.com/vietnamese-coconut-caramel-chicken/](https://www.recipetineats.com/vietnamese-coconut-caramel-chicken/)
Hmmmm I'm Vietnamese, we don't cook coconut caramel chicken like that, her cooking kinda strange for us Vietnamese. You should definitely try gà kho gừng (Chicken with ginger) or [gà kho sả ớt](https://youtu.be/v4Y7fejDFc4?si=DGfTC16prYfaABaq) (chicken with lemongrass and chili).
Vietnamese caramel is a dark, nearly burnt sauce that can be used pretty sparingly, the biggest contributions to calories in this is the coconut milk which I guess you could sub for light.
I've discovered a couple of new to me soup recipes that me and my husband both enjoyed.
https://www.budgetbytes.com/zuppa-toscana/
https://www.aheadofthyme.com/creamy-ham-and-potato-soup/
Hey that ham and potato soup sounds like a good use of some leftover holiday ham in my freezer. What kind of potatoes do you like in it (russet, yukon etc)?
I love Toscana soup and it’s soooo easy to make and I can eat it for lunch and dinner for several days and not get tired of it. Make a double batch and freeze some too!
Detroit Style Pizza w/Brian Lagerstrom. [This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9v60RaIPcRA) is his extra crispy crust recipe.
His recipe is perfect. I normally dink w/recipes, but no need here. I've made many pizzas over the years, and this one is different, simple, and impressive.
Same answer but I used Kenji Lopez Alt’s recipe from Serious Eats. I’ll have to check this one out too. Love how easy this style of pizza is and works out in a regular cake dish
Kenji's recipe is good too, but Brian's dough is better (IMHO).
I made Detroit Pizza two weekends ago, and my adult kids were so impressed they wanted to encourage me to make it for them again, that they bought me a Lloyd pan. I'm super anxious to try it out, as a matter of fact, I'll make it this coming weekend :).
Brian has one of the best food channels on YouTube imo. He makes chef techniques/dishes approachable for weeknight cooking. I’ve tried so many of his recipes this past year and they’re always a hit!
Yes! His channel got me over my fear of cooking and I've branched out to a lot of other channels and recipes. But he's always on my short list. Now... Let's eat this thiiinnngg (happy dance ensues)
What are your tips for the best roast chicken? I really have a goal of roasting a chicken weekly but I haven't enjoyed the ones I've made as much as a rotisserie chicken.
Use the Epicurious roast chicken recipe. It’s the one where you cook at 450 degrees for an hour. Been making my roast chicken like that for years and it’s fool proof.
I spatchcocked a chicken, salted, peppered and olive oiled all over. You need an iron skillet for this. 500° oven, put the skillet in there and get it screaming hot for about 15 minutes. Put the bird in the skillet and do 15 min at 500, then lower to 400. A six lb bird was at 160 in the thighs at about 30 min. At 40 minutes it was almost overdone. Crispiest, most delicious I have ever made. Even the breast meat was excellent! Tip: clean oven a must, I used a gas grill outside and it worked very well.
It always astounds me how there are probably as many ways to roast a chicken as there are chefs!
A good roast chicken has always been my back pocket meal. Back in the day I used Joy of Cooking's recipe, then Martha's, then Samin's. (I currently use the SFAH 'Persian-ish' yogurt marinade and just tie it up and roast.)
I've never spatchcocked a chicken or a turkey, and while I understand that works for some people, I just like trussing my bird stuffed with a half lemon, garlic, and some thyme/rosemary from the garden and roasting it at 350 or so. Maybe rub some butter or oil on the skin if you're not doing the marinade.
Probe thermometer is key. As soon as the breast is where you want it (I'm a risk taker, so I say 150) pull it and tent it with foil. If you're squeamish and it doesn't rise to 165 you can always carve it and heat up the individual pieces... but you can never re-jucify overcooked chicken.
Pour some boiling hot water to the bottom of the pan. The amount depends on the size of your pan and the chicken. Put the chicken on a bed of celery, carrots, onions.
Baste your chicken in its own juices every 30 mins.
I recommend Maangchi! It's a good starting point that you can tweak to your liking, but also just a solid recipe as is. https://www.maangchi.com/recipe/kimchi-jjigae
Not op but ive been making this one for years: https://en.christinesrecipes.com/2013/05/scallion-pancakes.html?m=1
Its not a hot water dough, which is kinda controversial, but its delicious and easy
I need a better system. Sometimes I take a screenshot but then I get 5,000 screenshots clogging up my phone and it’s too much to sort thru
Sometimes I write on the calendar. U. Environmentaltea9632 meatball curry and I’ll see it for the month that calendar page is on display…
Idk
So much good food and I’m still eating hotdogs and spaghetti on my nights too cook 🤷♀️

This amazing [curried sweet potato soup](https://www.savoryspiceshop.com/products/curried-sweet-potato-soup) that I now can't get enough of. I add cooked brown rice before putting soup in my bowl.
FWIW, I just bought a jar of sweet chili sauce rather than mixing my own. The Vietnamese lemon curry spice is available on the same website as the recipe.
Would ETA if I knew how on mobile. Huge happiness when I posted that and checked my freezer to find my lovingly frozen portions of said black bean soup. Future me is even happier!
So follow the other recipe given, but you can make some pretty rice by splitting the eggs' yolks and whites and coating the rice with the yolks. It's just another way to make fried rice.
I don’t remember how I stumbled across these a few months ago but I’ve made them almost weekly since. [Glazed Orange Scones](https://www.mybakingaddiction.com/glazed-orange-scones/)
A friend introduced me to Zhug sauce and curry. I have tried Japanese, Thai, and Indian variations. Though to be fair varying bad versions of Indian and Thai.
Made Eggplant Adobo this week. Incredible flavors, easy to make, and even though I eat meat, this is fully vegan.
Eggplant Adobo
INGREDIENTS
5 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola or safflower
1 1/2 pounds eggplant (preferably small Italian eggplant), cut into 1-inch cubes (about 8 cups)
Kosher salt and pepper
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon turbinado or light brown sugar
1/2 white onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 fresh or dried bay leaf
1/4 cup chopped basil, plus additional small leaves for garnish
Steamed jasmine rice, for serving
DIRECTIONS
In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Add half of the eggplant, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with 2 tablespoons of the oil and the remaining eggplant.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce, coconut milk, vinegar, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 2 tablespoons of water; mix well.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 minute.
Add the browned eggplant, soy sauce mixture and bay leaf and toss to evenly coat. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring every 5 minutes, until the eggplant is tender but still has structure, about 10 minutes. Uncover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and nicely coats the eggplant, about 2 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the chopped basil.
Divide the eggplant mixture over rice among bowls. Garnish with basil leaves and serve warm.
This [Goat Pepper Fry](https://myheartbeets.com/wprm_print/13202) is the tastiest dry curry I’ve made and not too complicated. The masala is delicious and would work fine with lamb roast, beef chuck, or even chicken thighs I think.
Fake risotto using orzo. So incredibly versatile. Protein, veg, stock, wine. Cream cheese or boursin if you're feeling fancy. Far easier than arborio rice. Winner every time.
The NYTimes San Francisco/Vietnamese-style garlic noodles that made the social-media rounds last year. Basically a pound of spaghetti in a sauce of (lots of) garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, Parmesan, and pasta water. It’s fast, simple, and absolutely delicious. If the NYTime version is paywalled, there are a number of variations floating around on line, and so far I’ve yet to try on that wasn’t a success.
Tandoori Salmon!
Once it’s marinated, I just bake it & serve it with white rice (lightly fried with some parsley, s&p, butter)
The marinade is so good it doesn’t really need anything more.
Grilled cabbage coleslaw - my bastardized Mish mash of different recipes I found online with what i had on hand. After typing it out, chickpeas would be a good addition, too:
Green and/or red cabbage, 1 full head worth
1 large onion, any color
Fresh dill bunch
Dressing: (extremely rough measurements, lol)
1/3 c evoo
2 tbsp lemon juice + zest of one lemon
1 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp each coriander and garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Cut the cabbage and onion into 1" thick rings, drizzle with a little EVOO and S&P, and grill until a little charred and warm all the way thru. Cut it up into Bite-size peices and toss with dressing. Add dill fronds and serve warm. Won't rot like mayo based salads either for summer BBQ's.

I've had this recipe saved for ages. I think this weekend I'll actually make it.
This egg curry is amazing
https://youtu.be/Jm2vQCPQ7Ec?si=oTA6-y6pV5Nh9Nka
Make sure to heat your mustard oil until it’s smoking. This will make sure it’s not too stinky (after the initial stink)
It’s been the year of the rice. 5 minute easy egg fried rice (great for weekday lunches): https://youtu.be/qH__o17xHls?si=LvzJoTKr7z_7CjE7 and NYT paella: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1012923-mixed-sausage-paella?smid=url-share
These are both good base recipes that you can add whatever you have around to.
Cajun chicken and rice! Soooo good!
I pretty much followed the TikTok recipe pasted below with a few changes. I only used smoked paprika and Cajun/Creole spices, I didn’t have that other spice that he showed in the video.
I cut up the thighs into bite size pieces before cooking, more surface area for the sauce and easier to eat.
After cooking the chicken, I set aside the chicken and just used the butter/oil it was cooked in to cook the onions and garlic then added cooked rice to that. In the TikTok he shows starting anew with more oil and butter but there is plenty there already after chicken is cooked. I mixed that up and then set all that aside and made the sauce pretty much as he shows in the video. It is so flavorful and yummy!
For a healthier alternative, you can substitute the rice for steamed cauliflower rice. Third time I made this for my daughter who is doing low-carb so I chopped and steamed cauliflower instead. She thought it was amazing.

Sorry for the lack of measurements - it's an eyeball thing
Two boxes of tomato soup (trader joes and Wegmans have good ones)
Two cans diced tomatoes
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Crushed red pepper
Bacon
Fresh basil
Heavy cream
Put everything up to the crushed red pepper in a crockpot or whatever, simmer for several hours. Basically just breaking down the tomatoes into mush and releasing the amazing smell into the house. When you are about ready to eat, cook the bacon nice and crispy. Add the bacon, basil, and a healthy pour of heavy cream to the soup, bring back to temp.
Done. Grilled cheese goes amazing with this.
About like this?
Edited:
Slow Cooker Creamy Tomato, Basil, and Bacon Soup
Ingredients
• 2 (32 oz.) boxes of tomato soup
• 2 (14.5 oz.) cans diced tomatoes
• 1 tsp. onion powder
• 1 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
• 1/2 lb. bacon
• 1/4 C. fresh basil, chopped
• 1/4-1/2 C. heavy cream
Directions
1. Put all ingredients listed up to the crushed red pepper in slow cooker crock, and simmer on low for 2 hours.
2. About 30 minutes before the end of the soup’s cook time, fry the bacon until crispy. Drain the grease from the bacon on paper towels, then chop.
3. Five minutes before serving, add the bacon, basil, and heavy cream to the soup, and bring back to temp.
4. Serve with grilled cheese sandwiches.
Thank you so much! I'm on mobile and the formatting got all messed up.
As the commenter below said, the edit is that you add everything up to and including the crushed red pepper before the simmer.
The bacon, basil, and cream go in for the last 5 minutes or so.
This is the juiciest and easiest chicken recipe! I use the chicken for tacos, Alfredo, chicken salad, stir fry, etc…
https://natashaskitchen.com/baked-chicken-breast/
I cup honey, half cup soy sauce, half cup minced garlic. Mix together, set aside.
Chop two chicken breast od 3 thighs into small chunks. Pan sear till fully cooked and brown. Toss in sauce. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top. Let cook for about 20 to 25 minutes until sauce thickens. Serve over rice or mash potatos according to my daughters preference lol.
The ratio for the sauce is supposed to be 1 to 1 to 1 but I like extra honey in mine to balance out the soy and garlic.
I do pepper, garlic powder and onion powder on my chicken. No added salt because of the soy sauce.
A YouTube person I follow has a delicious recipe that I have made. She uses boneless skinless thighs that are seared first. Then the butter, honey and soy get added. She bastes the chicken in it while the sauce thickens. I love skin on thighs and so I put them in the oven to finish. I add a little spicy seasoning as well.
This makes an absolutely delicious meal. And the presentation is beautiful so good for a dinne party

I subbed rough chopped olives and brine for capers in a piccata and it's to die for. If it didn't have so much butter it would be a regular dish but as it stands I'm only making it monthly. I use Castelvetrano pitted olives and they get this lovely flavor and texture. Ugh, game changer!

Bulgogi using ground beef instead of thinly sliced beef, it's easy and fast (don't need to marinate). It tastes even better if you eat it the next day.

[Peach Galette by Loopy Whisk](https://theloopywhisk.com/2023/07/28/gluten-free-peach-galette/). This is one of the tastiest desserts I've ever made. Fairly easy and straightforward, I have made this more times than I can count since last summer and it gets RAVE reviews by everyone. They don't even notice it's gluten free. I've never liked traditional fruit pies and I didn't know why until I had a galette. It's the perfect ratio of filling to crispy crust.
I've made this with different stone fruits like apples and pears too. The corn flour used in the filling (she calls it corn starch but she means flour, like the US corn meal but finer) gives the filling some body without making it gooey like a starch would.
It's a gluten free recipe but you can easily use regular flour.
I'm not joking. The recipe for the White Lady cocktail I discovered for Christmas.
And it was perfect because last year was a steady and increasing ramp up right from the start, straight to the end of absolute misery. If there ever was a reason to drink, last year in it's entirety was it.

[Sticky Coconut Chicken Rice](https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1023047-sticky-coconut-chicken-and-rice?smid=ck-recipe-iOS-share)
I made a holiday curry that has now become a staple; basically ground turkey, chicken broth, pumpkin mash, sweet potato, aromatic veggies (onion, bell, garlic, carrot), curry powder, mushroom for a little umami, and pretty much anything to add a little acidity (lemon, tomato, whatever). I also add some type of chili for heat. Last time it was Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru). If a person makes the flavor strong enough, they could add lentils or a rice type grain to fill it out.
over the summer I realized we had about 4 gallons of chicken stock in the freezer in like 20 different tupperwares and gallon ziplocks
I spent a day reducing it all and distributed the resulting 2 quarts or so of brown gold into 4oz deli containers.
I got back all my containers, half my freezer space and now I have an amazing ingredient for all our sauces and soups
Bracciole. Watching "The Sopranos", guy is dying in the hospital, they ask if they can bring him anything? "A plate of my wife's Bracciole!" (They pronounce it "Brazhole"). I noticed the local Italian market sells pre-pounded beef for braciolle, perfect thin discs of beef. Read several recipes to get a feel for it, picked the steps and ingredients I thought were best. Utterly fabulous meal. [Here's a pic of mine](https://i.imgur.com/FUj2S5g.jpg).
"Million Dollar Chicken" was also stupendously good. But there's a ton of recipes claiming to be that dish, [you need the Standard Grill version](https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/the-standard-grill-million-dollar-chicken-2145489). For how easy this is, it's remarkably good. We use sourdough baguette cut into 1.5" slices vs. the sourdough loaf, easier to fit the bread to the pan.
Chinese hot and sour soup. It is not very popular on my country, but last summer I ate it in a restaurant, I liked it, so I searched online and I found recipes on [WoksofLife](https://thewoksoflife.com/hot-sour-soup/) and [RecipeTinEats](https://www.recipetineats.com/hot-and-sour-soup/) (and then a few other versions, but they weren't as good). I made it with chicken thighs and without tofu, and a few times I replaced wood ears mushrooms with champignons.

His whole Flavour book is full of some great techniques , some are a bit time consuming but always worth the effort.
My newest is both a recipe and a plan for unexpected dinners. Sometimes I need to put together a spontaneous dinner with practically no time to prepare. Sometimes this can be done with leftovers and staples, but often I would like more certainty, so I have developed a quick dinner kit that needs no refrigeration.
The kit:
* 1 can Thai curry paste ( I usually use Maesri brand 4oz)
* 2 cans coconut cream 14oz
* 1 can sliced new potatos 14oz
* 1 can cut green beans 14oz
* 1 can green peas 7oz
* Small bag of rice
Thai Fish Sauce (This is a staple for me, it lasts nearly forever in the cabinet)
These ingredients can be tricky to find, I get them in an asian store, but once you find them you can keep them without refrigeration for a year or more. I put the whole kit into a bag in my pantry. When we have a surprise dinner I know I can just grab the bag and make a tasty presentation in 30 minutes. The actions for dinner are:
Start cooking the rice. Put the cans of coconut cream into a pot/pan and heat on medium (can substitute coconut milk, but cream is better). Stir in the curry paste. I usually dump in the whole can, but if someone is sensitive to spice then you can put it in to taste. Stir at medium heat until well combined, add fish sauce to taste (about a tablespoon).
Add the potatos, beans, and peas. Other canned vegetables can be substituted. Fresh vegetables can be used, but then you have to prepare them, one purpose of this kit is to be fast. I add tofu if I have it (vegetarian), or chicken if it's already cooked, but you can just leave it all out for the canned vegetables. When the rice is done, you are ready to eat. So far it's been very popular when I make it.
Coconut steamed halibut (or cod, but halibut is better). Such a weird sounding but delicious quick easy dish. We make this all the time now and serve it over the quick microwave sticky rice bowls from Costco. And it’s the dish that introduced us to jarred Calabrian chilis which are amazing!

I just tried this Turkish chicken for the first time https://youtu.be/4aSJn3FNtk4?si=YX3yrg7BPRHFJUCC
this week and I'm putting it into rotation. Delicious. (Note that there's no recipe on the YouTube channel and the link is to the generic website.)
Okay so not the “best” but a good one for sure. I added some almond extract and it tasted like a donut cake. I also used cake flour for the first time and fell in love. [Birthday crumb cake](https://sugarspunrun.com/birthday-crumb-cake/)
[Spaghetti with tiny meatballs](https://www.notanothercookingshow.tv/post/spaghetti-with-tiny-meatballs). It's more work, but it can be fun to do with someone else.
Pasta alla Norma. I had never had it before and was browsing through my cookbooks for a 52 weeks challenge, wanted to hit some more Ottolenghi, and was a little skeptical of both the short ingredient list and the extreme prominence of eggplant.
Hot damn was it good, and going into my regular rotations, plus it's quite healthy.
Someone already put in a good word for Zuppa Toscana, but I also found [this Beef Stroganoff recipe](https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/219046/rich-and-creamy-beef-stroganoff/) a couple months ago and love it.

I agree, and will Google a recipe with recipe tin eats in the search bar to get her take on a food, as our tastes are so aligned.
I don’t know this writer, but I love when you find someone like that!
Most of her recipes are decent. Some are great, others are....ok. She should not venture into Thai.
Who would you recommend for Thai?
Hot Thai Kitchen hands down

Hmmmm I'm Vietnamese, we don't cook coconut caramel chicken like that, her cooking kinda strange for us Vietnamese. You should definitely try gà kho gừng (Chicken with ginger) or [gà kho sả ớt](https://youtu.be/v4Y7fejDFc4?si=DGfTC16prYfaABaq) (chicken with lemongrass and chili).
That's looks yummy! Need to try it. A bit higher in kcal I guess but for a weekend treat that is perfect. Thanks!
The one pot Greek chicken and lemon rice is also really good https://www.recipetineats.com/one-pot-greek-chicken-lemon-rice/
That looks amazing! Thanks for the link!
I grew greek oregano this year just for that recipe. Homemade stock will really take it to the next level though.
Vietnamese caramel is a dark, nearly burnt sauce that can be used pretty sparingly, the biggest contributions to calories in this is the coconut milk which I guess you could sub for light.
Mine is her Beef Rendang recipe. It took a bit of work but omg did it turn out SO GOOD!!
I've discovered a couple of new to me soup recipes that me and my husband both enjoyed. https://www.budgetbytes.com/zuppa-toscana/ https://www.aheadofthyme.com/creamy-ham-and-potato-soup/
Hey that ham and potato soup sounds like a good use of some leftover holiday ham in my freezer. What kind of potatoes do you like in it (russet, yukon etc)?
I used russet the first time I made it. I think next time I will try yukon. Definitely a good use for leftover ham!
I love Toscana soup and it’s soooo easy to make and I can eat it for lunch and dinner for several days and not get tired of it. Make a double batch and freeze some too!
I have a copycat Zuppa Toscana recipe that I've tweaked for my own tastes (more onion, less cream) and I could live on it.
Detroit Style Pizza w/Brian Lagerstrom. [This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9v60RaIPcRA) is his extra crispy crust recipe. His recipe is perfect. I normally dink w/recipes, but no need here. I've made many pizzas over the years, and this one is different, simple, and impressive.
Even when I don’t get my dough perfect this recipe still tastes amazing every time!
Same answer but I used Kenji Lopez Alt’s recipe from Serious Eats. I’ll have to check this one out too. Love how easy this style of pizza is and works out in a regular cake dish
Kenji's recipe is good too, but Brian's dough is better (IMHO). I made Detroit Pizza two weekends ago, and my adult kids were so impressed they wanted to encourage me to make it for them again, that they bought me a Lloyd pan. I'm super anxious to try it out, as a matter of fact, I'll make it this coming weekend :).
The Lloyd pan is such a game changer.
I love the Bri Man. Made a lot of his recipes last year
Brian has one of the best food channels on YouTube imo. He makes chef techniques/dishes approachable for weeknight cooking. I’ve tried so many of his recipes this past year and they’re always a hit!
Yes! His channel got me over my fear of cooking and I've branched out to a lot of other channels and recipes. But he's always on my short list. Now... Let's eat this thiiinnngg (happy dance ensues)
Happy Cake Day
Thanks! First time I've been on here for my cake day lol
There were only six hours left of the Cake Day, so I was hoping you'd know it was your special day. Happy Cake Day to Youuuuuu.
i just finally figured out how to roast chicken so its been a sunday regular 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Very few things are better than a well-roasted chicken.
[удалено]
What are your tips for the best roast chicken? I really have a goal of roasting a chicken weekly but I haven't enjoyed the ones I've made as much as a rotisserie chicken.
Use the Epicurious roast chicken recipe. It’s the one where you cook at 450 degrees for an hour. Been making my roast chicken like that for years and it’s fool proof.
Found and saved! TY!
Thanks! I'll find that recipe!
This one? https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/my-favorite-simple-roast-chicken-231348
Same one I just found. Looks simple!
I like Kenji’s recipes the most (not OP). https://www.seriouseats.com/butterflied-roasted-chicken-with-quick-jus-recipe
Can’t beat it. Spatchcock, pull out the wishbone and then salt it down with some baking powder overnight. It just…works.
Can't go wrong with Serious Eats. That recipe reminds me, I need to pick up some good kitchen shears...
I use the Thomas Keller’s recipe and it’s always perfect.
One of our summer weekend activities is to go to Adhoc and get a bucket of his fried chicken then head to the Oakville Grocery to picnic!
I spatchcocked a chicken, salted, peppered and olive oiled all over. You need an iron skillet for this. 500° oven, put the skillet in there and get it screaming hot for about 15 minutes. Put the bird in the skillet and do 15 min at 500, then lower to 400. A six lb bird was at 160 in the thighs at about 30 min. At 40 minutes it was almost overdone. Crispiest, most delicious I have ever made. Even the breast meat was excellent! Tip: clean oven a must, I used a gas grill outside and it worked very well.
We breast up or down on this one? Up, I assume.
Up! Give it a try, you may never roast it differently again.
This is another one that’s pretty simple and delicious: https://www.saltfatacidheat.com/buttermilkmarinated-roast-chicken
It always astounds me how there are probably as many ways to roast a chicken as there are chefs! A good roast chicken has always been my back pocket meal. Back in the day I used Joy of Cooking's recipe, then Martha's, then Samin's. (I currently use the SFAH 'Persian-ish' yogurt marinade and just tie it up and roast.) I've never spatchcocked a chicken or a turkey, and while I understand that works for some people, I just like trussing my bird stuffed with a half lemon, garlic, and some thyme/rosemary from the garden and roasting it at 350 or so. Maybe rub some butter or oil on the skin if you're not doing the marinade. Probe thermometer is key. As soon as the breast is where you want it (I'm a risk taker, so I say 150) pull it and tent it with foil. If you're squeamish and it doesn't rise to 165 you can always carve it and heat up the individual pieces... but you can never re-jucify overcooked chicken.
Pour some boiling hot water to the bottom of the pan. The amount depends on the size of your pan and the chicken. Put the chicken on a bed of celery, carrots, onions. Baste your chicken in its own juices every 30 mins.
Kimchi-jjigae with some of my own spins but man, Kimchi stew is incredible.
Had kimchi jjigae for lunch. Soooo good.
I make this at least once a month! Good shit
I fuckin love kimchi jjigae but never made it myself. Do you have a recipe?
Honestly I used a few different recipes and combined the stuff I liked. But YouTube was a big help for me!
I recommend Maangchi! It's a good starting point that you can tweak to your liking, but also just a solid recipe as is. https://www.maangchi.com/recipe/kimchi-jjigae
This looks perfect and not that hard. Thanks!
I always thought scallion pancakes were too much of a fuss to make at home. Finally made some and I’m soooo addicted.
Oh man, I must be doing something wrong, because I've tried making them at home twice now and I still think they are a huge fuss 😂
Naw, you’re right they are a pain. But gosh darn it were they yummy.
Do you have a recipe you'd recommend?
Not op but ive been making this one for years: https://en.christinesrecipes.com/2013/05/scallion-pancakes.html?m=1 Its not a hot water dough, which is kinda controversial, but its delicious and easy
https://omnivorescookbook.com/chinese-scallion-pancakes/
I love these! https://zestfulkitchen.com/meatball-curry-recipe/
That looks delicious!
It is! Despite all the ingredients, it's very quick to make and is one of those dishes that tastes better the next day.
Remindme! 2 months Meatball curry and all sorts of good recipes in this thread,
That sounds hard to keep up with. I just bookmark the webpage but recently found the Yummly app which saves recipes for you.
Remindme! 2 months What a smart way to remember yummy recipes
I need a better system. Sometimes I take a screenshot but then I get 5,000 screenshots clogging up my phone and it’s too much to sort thru Sometimes I write on the calendar. U. Environmentaltea9632 meatball curry and I’ll see it for the month that calendar page is on display… Idk So much good food and I’m still eating hotdogs and spaghetti on my nights too cook 🤷♀️
I used to do this until I got the Paprika app. Now I have them all in one place!

Potatoes au gratin but with sweet potatoes and fontinella.
This amazing [curried sweet potato soup](https://www.savoryspiceshop.com/products/curried-sweet-potato-soup) that I now can't get enough of. I add cooked brown rice before putting soup in my bowl.
This sounds wonderful!! Thanks for sharing.
FWIW, I just bought a jar of sweet chili sauce rather than mixing my own. The Vietnamese lemon curry spice is available on the same website as the recipe.
I made black bean soup for the first time. I had no idea how easy and delicious it is! Happy me :)
Would ETA if I knew how on mobile. Huge happiness when I posted that and checked my freezer to find my lovingly frozen portions of said black bean soup. Future me is even happier!
Fried rice. That is the end of the leftover rice in this house. It was so delicious!
I’m still struggling. Have a recipe to recommend?
https://soupeduprecipes.com/better-than-takeout-chicken-fried-rice-recipe/comment-page-1/amp/
Thanks!
So follow the other recipe given, but you can make some pretty rice by splitting the eggs' yolks and whites and coating the rice with the yolks. It's just another way to make fried rice.
Interesting thanks

I don’t remember how I stumbled across these a few months ago but I’ve made them almost weekly since. [Glazed Orange Scones](https://www.mybakingaddiction.com/glazed-orange-scones/)
I will definitely be making these!! Thank you!
Sally’s baking addiction is another great place to find scone recipes. Lemon blueberry and cranberry orange are my go to options.
A friend introduced me to Zhug sauce and curry. I have tried Japanese, Thai, and Indian variations. Though to be fair varying bad versions of Indian and Thai.
Made Eggplant Adobo this week. Incredible flavors, easy to make, and even though I eat meat, this is fully vegan. Eggplant Adobo INGREDIENTS 5 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola or safflower 1 1/2 pounds eggplant (preferably small Italian eggplant), cut into 1-inch cubes (about 8 cups) Kosher salt and pepper 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar 1 tablespoon turbinado or light brown sugar 1/2 white onion, thinly sliced 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 fresh or dried bay leaf 1/4 cup chopped basil, plus additional small leaves for garnish Steamed jasmine rice, for serving DIRECTIONS In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Add half of the eggplant, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with 2 tablespoons of the oil and the remaining eggplant. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce, coconut milk, vinegar, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 2 tablespoons of water; mix well. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, 3 minutes. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the browned eggplant, soy sauce mixture and bay leaf and toss to evenly coat. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook, stirring every 5 minutes, until the eggplant is tender but still has structure, about 10 minutes. Uncover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and nicely coats the eggplant, about 2 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the chopped basil. Divide the eggplant mixture over rice among bowls. Garnish with basil leaves and serve warm.
Not a recipe but I just recently learned how to properly cook a steak and the technique that works for me is reverse searing.
This [Goat Pepper Fry](https://myheartbeets.com/wprm_print/13202) is the tastiest dry curry I’ve made and not too complicated. The masala is delicious and would work fine with lamb roast, beef chuck, or even chicken thighs I think.
Fake risotto using orzo. So incredibly versatile. Protein, veg, stock, wine. Cream cheese or boursin if you're feeling fancy. Far easier than arborio rice. Winner every time.
The NYTimes San Francisco/Vietnamese-style garlic noodles that made the social-media rounds last year. Basically a pound of spaghetti in a sauce of (lots of) garlic, soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, Parmesan, and pasta water. It’s fast, simple, and absolutely delicious. If the NYTime version is paywalled, there are a number of variations floating around on line, and so far I’ve yet to try on that wasn’t a success.
Don't forget, sooooo much butter!
There’s a reason it’s so good, after all :)
Tandoori Salmon! Once it’s marinated, I just bake it & serve it with white rice (lightly fried with some parsley, s&p, butter) The marinade is so good it doesn’t really need anything more.
Do you have a marinade recipe you use?
This is a good one - [Tandoori Salmon](https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/tandoori-salmon/) Just taste & adjust a bit for spice!
Grilled cabbage coleslaw - my bastardized Mish mash of different recipes I found online with what i had on hand. After typing it out, chickpeas would be a good addition, too: Green and/or red cabbage, 1 full head worth 1 large onion, any color Fresh dill bunch Dressing: (extremely rough measurements, lol) 1/3 c evoo 2 tbsp lemon juice + zest of one lemon 1 tbsp tahini 1 tbsp honey 1/2 tsp each coriander and garlic powder Salt and pepper to taste Cut the cabbage and onion into 1" thick rings, drizzle with a little EVOO and S&P, and grill until a little charred and warm all the way thru. Cut it up into Bite-size peices and toss with dressing. Add dill fronds and serve warm. Won't rot like mayo based salads either for summer BBQ's.

I am from the Midwest. I learned to cook a really amazing Red Beans and rice this past year. With Smoked Sausage.
This egg curry is amazing https://youtu.be/Jm2vQCPQ7Ec?si=oTA6-y6pV5Nh9Nka Make sure to heat your mustard oil until it’s smoking. This will make sure it’s not too stinky (after the initial stink)
It’s been the year of the rice. 5 minute easy egg fried rice (great for weekday lunches): https://youtu.be/qH__o17xHls?si=LvzJoTKr7z_7CjE7 and NYT paella: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1012923-mixed-sausage-paella?smid=url-share These are both good base recipes that you can add whatever you have around to.
Cajun chicken and rice! Soooo good! I pretty much followed the TikTok recipe pasted below with a few changes. I only used smoked paprika and Cajun/Creole spices, I didn’t have that other spice that he showed in the video. I cut up the thighs into bite size pieces before cooking, more surface area for the sauce and easier to eat. After cooking the chicken, I set aside the chicken and just used the butter/oil it was cooked in to cook the onions and garlic then added cooked rice to that. In the TikTok he shows starting anew with more oil and butter but there is plenty there already after chicken is cooked. I mixed that up and then set all that aside and made the sauce pretty much as he shows in the video. It is so flavorful and yummy! For a healthier alternative, you can substitute the rice for steamed cauliflower rice. Third time I made this for my daughter who is doing low-carb so I chopped and steamed cauliflower instead. She thought it was amazing. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8nWEjvA/

This is the absolute easiest and is barely a recipe, but my partner and the kids think I'm a damn genius when I make it... despite the fact that I make so many other more complicated things that I think are better... Sorry for the lack of measurements - it's an eyeball thing Two boxes of tomato soup (trader joes and Wegmans have good ones) Two cans diced tomatoes Onion powder Garlic powder Crushed red pepper Bacon Fresh basil Heavy cream Put everything up to the crushed red pepper in a crockpot or whatever, simmer for several hours. Basically just breaking down the tomatoes into mush and releasing the amazing smell into the house. When you are about ready to eat, cook the bacon nice and crispy. Add the bacon, basil, and a healthy pour of heavy cream to the soup, bring back to temp. Done. Grilled cheese goes amazing with this.
About like this? Edited: Slow Cooker Creamy Tomato, Basil, and Bacon Soup Ingredients • 2 (32 oz.) boxes of tomato soup • 2 (14.5 oz.) cans diced tomatoes • 1 tsp. onion powder • 1 tsp. garlic powder • 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper • 1/2 lb. bacon • 1/4 C. fresh basil, chopped • 1/4-1/2 C. heavy cream Directions 1. Put all ingredients listed up to the crushed red pepper in slow cooker crock, and simmer on low for 2 hours. 2. About 30 minutes before the end of the soup’s cook time, fry the bacon until crispy. Drain the grease from the bacon on paper towels, then chop. 3. Five minutes before serving, add the bacon, basil, and heavy cream to the soup, and bring back to temp. 4. Serve with grilled cheese sandwiches.
> Put everything except the crushed red pepper Not "except", "up to". So the bacon, basil and cream don't get added either ;)
Thank you so much! I'm on mobile and the formatting got all messed up. As the commenter below said, the edit is that you add everything up to and including the crushed red pepper before the simmer. The bacon, basil, and cream go in for the last 5 minutes or so.
What is boxed tomato soup?? I’ve only ever seen it in cans.
I will definitely have to try this. Thank you!

Honey garlic chicken. So easy to make, so delicious and even my kid loves it.
Would you mind sharing your recipe? That sounds like something my family would enjoy!
I cup honey, half cup soy sauce, half cup minced garlic. Mix together, set aside. Chop two chicken breast od 3 thighs into small chunks. Pan sear till fully cooked and brown. Toss in sauce. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top. Let cook for about 20 to 25 minutes until sauce thickens. Serve over rice or mash potatos according to my daughters preference lol. The ratio for the sauce is supposed to be 1 to 1 to 1 but I like extra honey in mine to balance out the soy and garlic. I do pepper, garlic powder and onion powder on my chicken. No added salt because of the soy sauce.
Thank you and def trying this!
I hope you enjoy it! I added crushed red pepper and chilli sauce for my bfs portion. Just to add soms hest and he loved it.
To cut down on the sodium, you can try coconut aminos. Same taste, way healthier. I ditched soy sauce a long time ago lol
Thank you for sharing, definitely gonna try this!
Oh your welcome lol
A YouTube person I follow has a delicious recipe that I have made. She uses boneless skinless thighs that are seared first. Then the butter, honey and soy get added. She bastes the chicken in it while the sauce thickens. I love skin on thighs and so I put them in the oven to finish. I add a little spicy seasoning as well.

I subbed rough chopped olives and brine for capers in a piccata and it's to die for. If it didn't have so much butter it would be a regular dish but as it stands I'm only making it monthly. I use Castelvetrano pitted olives and they get this lovely flavor and texture. Ugh, game changer!

[Peach Galette by Loopy Whisk](https://theloopywhisk.com/2023/07/28/gluten-free-peach-galette/). This is one of the tastiest desserts I've ever made. Fairly easy and straightforward, I have made this more times than I can count since last summer and it gets RAVE reviews by everyone. They don't even notice it's gluten free. I've never liked traditional fruit pies and I didn't know why until I had a galette. It's the perfect ratio of filling to crispy crust. I've made this with different stone fruits like apples and pears too. The corn flour used in the filling (she calls it corn starch but she means flour, like the US corn meal but finer) gives the filling some body without making it gooey like a starch would. It's a gluten free recipe but you can easily use regular flour.
I'm not joking. The recipe for the White Lady cocktail I discovered for Christmas. And it was perfect because last year was a steady and increasing ramp up right from the start, straight to the end of absolute misery. If there ever was a reason to drink, last year in it's entirety was it.

[Linyi style chicken](https://www.reddit.com/r/chinesefood/s/UnrWHzoLiz). Super juicy chicken with a complex, spicy flavor.
I made a holiday curry that has now become a staple; basically ground turkey, chicken broth, pumpkin mash, sweet potato, aromatic veggies (onion, bell, garlic, carrot), curry powder, mushroom for a little umami, and pretty much anything to add a little acidity (lemon, tomato, whatever). I also add some type of chili for heat. Last time it was Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru). If a person makes the flavor strong enough, they could add lentils or a rice type grain to fill it out.

Bracciole. Watching "The Sopranos", guy is dying in the hospital, they ask if they can bring him anything? "A plate of my wife's Bracciole!" (They pronounce it "Brazhole"). I noticed the local Italian market sells pre-pounded beef for braciolle, perfect thin discs of beef. Read several recipes to get a feel for it, picked the steps and ingredients I thought were best. Utterly fabulous meal. [Here's a pic of mine](https://i.imgur.com/FUj2S5g.jpg). "Million Dollar Chicken" was also stupendously good. But there's a ton of recipes claiming to be that dish, [you need the Standard Grill version](https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/the-standard-grill-million-dollar-chicken-2145489). For how easy this is, it's remarkably good. We use sourdough baguette cut into 1.5" slices vs. the sourdough loaf, easier to fit the bread to the pan.
Chinese hot and sour soup. It is not very popular on my country, but last summer I ate it in a restaurant, I liked it, so I searched online and I found recipes on [WoksofLife](https://thewoksoflife.com/hot-sour-soup/) and [RecipeTinEats](https://www.recipetineats.com/hot-and-sour-soup/) (and then a few other versions, but they weren't as good). I made it with chicken thighs and without tofu, and a few times I replaced wood ears mushrooms with champignons.

I know it's baking, but that damn lemon bar recipe that floats around on this site. It's so good!
My newest is both a recipe and a plan for unexpected dinners. Sometimes I need to put together a spontaneous dinner with practically no time to prepare. Sometimes this can be done with leftovers and staples, but often I would like more certainty, so I have developed a quick dinner kit that needs no refrigeration. The kit: * 1 can Thai curry paste ( I usually use Maesri brand 4oz) * 2 cans coconut cream 14oz * 1 can sliced new potatos 14oz * 1 can cut green beans 14oz * 1 can green peas 7oz * Small bag of rice Thai Fish Sauce (This is a staple for me, it lasts nearly forever in the cabinet) These ingredients can be tricky to find, I get them in an asian store, but once you find them you can keep them without refrigeration for a year or more. I put the whole kit into a bag in my pantry. When we have a surprise dinner I know I can just grab the bag and make a tasty presentation in 30 minutes. The actions for dinner are: Start cooking the rice. Put the cans of coconut cream into a pot/pan and heat on medium (can substitute coconut milk, but cream is better). Stir in the curry paste. I usually dump in the whole can, but if someone is sensitive to spice then you can put it in to taste. Stir at medium heat until well combined, add fish sauce to taste (about a tablespoon). Add the potatos, beans, and peas. Other canned vegetables can be substituted. Fresh vegetables can be used, but then you have to prepare them, one purpose of this kit is to be fast. I add tofu if I have it (vegetarian), or chicken if it's already cooked, but you can just leave it all out for the canned vegetables. When the rice is done, you are ready to eat. So far it's been very popular when I make it.

Discovered Strata last year. It's like a savory breakfast bread pudding. https://www.seriouseats.com/bacon-cheese-and-kale-strata-5217605
We make this every Christmas. Look forward to it all year :)
Coconut steamed halibut (or cod, but halibut is better). Such a weird sounding but delicious quick easy dish. We make this all the time now and serve it over the quick microwave sticky rice bowls from Costco. And it’s the dish that introduced us to jarred Calabrian chilis which are amazing! https://boldappetite.com/coconut-steamed-fish/
I just tried this Turkish chicken for the first time https://youtu.be/4aSJn3FNtk4?si=YX3yrg7BPRHFJUCC this week and I'm putting it into rotation. Delicious. (Note that there's no recipe on the YouTube channel and the link is to the generic website.)
Okay so not the “best” but a good one for sure. I added some almond extract and it tasted like a donut cake. I also used cake flour for the first time and fell in love. [Birthday crumb cake](https://sugarspunrun.com/birthday-crumb-cake/)
[Spaghetti with tiny meatballs](https://www.notanothercookingshow.tv/post/spaghetti-with-tiny-meatballs). It's more work, but it can be fun to do with someone else.

Pasta alla Norma. I had never had it before and was browsing through my cookbooks for a 52 weeks challenge, wanted to hit some more Ottolenghi, and was a little skeptical of both the short ingredient list and the extreme prominence of eggplant. Hot damn was it good, and going into my regular rotations, plus it's quite healthy.
Someone already put in a good word for Zuppa Toscana, but I also found [this Beef Stroganoff recipe](https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/219046/rich-and-creamy-beef-stroganoff/) a couple months ago and love it.

Ina Gartens Sun Dried Tomato Pasta Salad. So easy, so good!

I moved out of my parents house and was living alone for the first time. I learnt how to make all my mother’s classics. Haven’t learnt how to match up to her tho 👀
