The Essential New York Times Cookbook: Moroccan Chicken Smothered in Olives
This was a great dish with wonderful flavor. Even the husband liked it a lot, despite the fact that it’s all dark meat. Also I think I’ve found a new favorite spice: smoked paprika. Smokey, as you might expect, and … Continue reading
Off Topic: Chicken Adobo
Aka, Revenge of the Dark Meat. The bad thing about a small family is that each member sometimes has too much power. In our little family of three, it only takes one person to be the tie-breaker at any time. … Continue reading

Ad Hoc at Home: Buttermilk Fried Chicken
I’ve tried many, many fried chicken recipes and settled on a favorite. What I’ve come to believe is that there are really three very important things to get right in order to achieve good or even edible fried chicken. 1. … Continue reading
Weber’s Way to Grill: Chicken Paillards with Tomato and Olive Relish
I think chicken breasts are one of the hardest things to grill and, in general, the most over-rated part of the chicken. The lack of fat means that they tend to be dry and they need lots of help from … Continue reading
