Chicken and waffles
Ah, the fried chicken and waffle. I feel like the combination just should not work but I also know for a fact that fried chicken on a waffle, smothered with hot honey and a little butter too, works very, very well. I also am smart enough to know that this is not every day food.…

Ultimate Coq au Vin Recipe for Winter Comfort
Cock au vin, or chicken in wine, is another one of those dishes that I really look forward to when the weather chills down some, and even more so if we have an excess of roosters that we need to deal with*. You can cook it in a camp oven on the way to wolf…

Kung pao crack chicken
This is my version of kung pao chicken – a Sichuan dish that I have never tasted. Armed with my lack of knowledge and a fervor only seen previously in Russian ballet circles, I have set forth to make this dish my own. I’ve looked at a few recipes and then played around with a…

BBQ chicken with romesco sauce
I think this grilled chook is inspired by Spain, possibly what I was thinking might be eaten by a farmer in a little village in the Spanish country side somewhere, and that is absolutely what I wanted my chicken to be cooked like on this day. Also, I really wanted some romesco sauce in my…

Chicken san choy bau
I initially wanted to knock up a pork san choy bau and do you know what? This could really easily have been a pork san choy bau if I replaced the chicken mince with pork mince – pork belly mince would be particularly nice – but my Jennee is damn sure that chicken is the…
