Skillet Sesame Chicken
Sesame Chicken just makes me smile. It is one of my most favorite take out options from my local Chinese restaurant. What is yours? Better than Take Out The beauty of this sesame chicken is that you know exactly what is going in it and you can change it up as needed. If you want it a little sweeter you can add in some brown sugar or more honey. If you want it less, then leave it out. Want it more acidic, throw in some lime. So many options. All in One Pan Once the chicken is marinated (which can be done is as little as 30 minutes)…

Sunday (or thursday or friday or monday) Pot Roast
Pot Roast is one of my most favorite Comfort foods. You know like cookies, casseroles or your favorite cake. Comfort food is all I am craving these days. I know I should be focusing on eating healthier and all that, but honestly all I want is food that warms my soul. Roast is one of my most favorite comfort foods and this roast is my MOST favorite. Fall Apart Pot Roast To me the mark of a GREAT pot roast is if it falls apart. I mean is there anything better than a super tender pot roast that literally falls apart when you stick a fork into it? I don’t…

Air Fryer Chicken – Your Go-To Chicken
Do you have an Air Fryer yet? I mean everywhere I look I am seeing new recipes, new tips and tricks & people raving about their air fryer. I resisted on getting one as I just didn’t want another small appliance taking up space, but then I started seeing everyone rave about the Air Fryer Instant Pot Lid. And let me tell you, I am so glad I did. Better than store bought… The beauty of making a rotisserie style chicken at home is that you can season it just how you want. You could use lemon pepper, or cajun, or just salt & pepper. This time around I used…

Chicken & Gnocchi Bake
I have a gnocchi confession… I am secretly obsessed with it! I like it all sorts of ways, with all sorts of things but this bake is a perfect option for a yummy, comforting weeknight dinner. A LITTLE CHICKEN TALK I have recently become a BIG, BIG fan of chicken thighs. I am literally using them every week. Sometimes I just roast them up and pair them with a quick salad and veggie and sometimes I use them in a casserole… LIEK THIS ONE! I always sear them in a pan. This not only adds some great color to the dish but also a TON of flavor. I also make…

Cheesy Garlic Chicken
Cheesy Garlic Chicken is your new go to weeknight dinner. I love this recipe even more because it only uses a few ingredients, most of which you probably have on hand…cannot get much easier than that. Cheesy Garlic LOVE This chicken dish is SOOOO good. The chicken is nice and tender cooked under a delicious layer of a creamy garlic mixture that gives this dish a TON of flavor. The base of the garlic goodness is cream cheese. I used a whole brick (8 oz) of cream cheese mixed with a little sour cream and minced garlic…lots of garlic. The fresh garlic is what makes this chicken stand out. It…

Hamburger Steak with Onion Gravy … Yes, Please
Hamburger Steak may feel a little old school but I tell you…this hamburger steak is AMAZING! Don’t believe me… try it. Oh the Onions… So fun fact, I have not always been the biggest fan of onions. Yep so I never have onions on my burger or hot dog, or in my salads. I really only love onions when they are browned, like in this gravy, or onion soup, or cut up small for a hint of flavor. I know, weird but it is just how I am. These onions are made even better as they are cooked in the same skillet as the hamburger steaks just adding even…
