This post has been a loooong time coming. It was 2014 and the World Cup was being held in Brazil when I heard about coxhina for the first time. The teardrop-shaped street food typically consists of a fried potato dough exterior and creamy, shredded chicken filling. It's extremely popular in Brazil, and extremely delicious. Or so...

Sheet-Pan Tandoori Chicken & Vegetables
If there was ever evidence of my incessant complaining having any sort of pull in this universe, it would be when the strip mall Indian joint appeared in this otherwise dull and flavorless town. Harsh, I know. But it's true. In the months since it opened, James and I have eaten at that Indian restaurant... ah, more times than...
Slow Cooker Jamaican Jerk Chicken Chili with Plantain Chips
Consider this my SOS call.
Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot
I don't know what I've enjoyed more: soaking up all of the compliments I've gotten about this Saucy Spanish Chicken, Chorizo, and Potato Pot, or soaking up all of that sauce with slice after slice of crusty bread. On second thought, I'm totally lying. It's the sauce, hands down, no contest. I'm in love with it, I want...
Korean Chicken and Kimchi-Fried Rice Bowls
Can I just say (in-between mouthfuls) that I'm so happy no one can see me right now? You know, as I intermittently shovel forkfuls of leftovers into my face, spill grains all over the keyboard of my laptop, and, since we're being so candid, grunt like a hungry beast? Yes, I know that it's not lady-like. It's certainly...
Jalapeño Buttermilk Ranch Fried Chicken
It was with a metal mug full of Pimento Beer Cheese, a freezer full of Ultra Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits, and a mason jar overflowing with Jalapeño Buttermilk Ranch that I realized that I was missing an essential piece of the puzzle (or sandwich, as it was). I realized that I had no fried chicken for slathering...
Southwestern Chicken Cobb Salad with Jalapeño Buttermilk Ranch
There are two types of salads in the world, you know. Some are simple, light, and healthy. They're sort that are loaded up with greens and drizzled with a light vinaigrette; the sort that leaves you the tiniest bit hungry, but in a good way; the sort that you eat at the end of the...
One Pot Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Pasta
It was bound to happen. Between my buffalo chicken obsession and never-ending stream of one pot pasta recipes, you probably saw this coming, right? Yes, you know what I'm talking about. It's creamy, it's cheesy, it's spicy, and it's carby. It's what love songs and heart-eye-emojis were made for. It's all of my guilty pleasures wrapped up into one...
Mexican Brick Chicken with Grilled Corn and Avocados
Say hello to the debunker of the Beer Can Chicken craze. You may think you know the tastiest way to grill a whole chicken, but I'm about to cast some doubt and introduce you to this delicious, crispy, juicy, spicy, delicious (again for emphasis) Mexican Brick Chicken with Grilled Corn and Avocados.
Saucy Skillet Chicken Sausage and Spinach Stuffed Peppers
There's something about stuffed peppers that always feels like the cozy, tuck-you-in type of comfort food to me. They're also the kind of comfort food that I tend to avoid in the warmer months because most recipes require turning on the oven. When it feels like an oven outside, I try not to use the oven inside, you know?...
Sun-Dried Tomato Crusted Chicken with Goat Cheese and Herb Sauce
My little brother Mark-- or maybe I should say my younger brother, as he's not very little anymore-- doesn't fit the stereotype of the annoying bratty sibling. In fact, he's pretty much the coolest kid-- or I guess man, now-- that I know. That's mainly due to the fact that he spent most of his early years trying to be like me....
Harissa-Lime Chicken and Couscous Skillet
Do you remember the movie Pleasantville? You know, the one where young Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon get sucked into a swell little 1950s TV town, and their influence transforms it into a place that's colorful and sexy and lively and dangerous and all of those adjectives that are sooooooo much better than "pleasant"?
Crunchy Mexican BBQ Sauced Chicken Tacos with Charred Corn Relish
I feel like you're giving me a weird look right now. Is it because when you envision sweet and smoky, barbecue sauce-smothered chicken with fresh-off-the-cob corn, you're usually not thinking of tacos? I feel you, friend. I do. But these Crunchy Mexican BBQ Sauced Chicken Tacos with Charred Corn Relish are about to change your WORLD.
Creamy Three Cheese Chipotle Chicken Enchiladas
When I first started coming up with recipes for my upcoming Cinco de Mayo / birthday fiesta, I was all set on only including authentic Mexican recipes. I researched meticulously, I took notes, I ordered special ingredients online... aaaand theeeeen these Creamy Three Cheese Chipotle Chicken Enchiladas happened. Sometimes you just gotta follow your heart.
Smothered Bacon Asiago Wine Chicken
I like plenty of "classy" foods-- dishes with mile-long lists of ingredients (or mile-high costs for just a few special ones). But when it comes down to what I crave most often, the list consists of a few, simple foods: bacon, chicken, and cheese. You know, the oh-so-very refined palate that one would expect of a food...
Spicy Sesame-Chili Noodles with Chicken
When people find out that I'm a food blogger, they seem to be under the impression that my cabinets are overflowing with the most sophisticated of ingredients, and that I casually toss together grand culinary masterpieces day in and day out. Well, I wish. Just like everyone else, I dread spending too much time in the supermarket....
One Pot Chicken Cordon Bleu Alfredo with Toasted Breadcrumbs
Did you have a lovely, food-filled Eater? I did, and now I'm overloaded with more jelly beans than I know what to do with, a carton full of hard-boiled eggs, and a fridge stacked high with various leftover-filled plastic containers. I'm not sure how I'm ever going to get through all of this stuff. Are you right...
Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs with Creamy Parmesan Rice
These Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs with Creamy Parmesan Rice are a result of what can only be explained as a freak accident on mother nature's behalf: I've managed to keep a basil plant alive in my kitchen for months now. Not only is it alive, it's flourishing. New leaves are coming in. Nothing is wilting. It's survived...
Balsamic-Red Wine Roasted Chicken Thighs and Vegetables
Chicken thighs and I have had a rocky relationship throughout the years. My mom always avoided them in favor of the leaner breast meat, and because she shied away from them, I thought that there was something inherently unappetizing about thighs. I avoided them at all costs, up until my twenties when I realized that so many recipes...
Baked Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese Bites
I just pulled (what I'm pretty sure is) my first all-nighter since college to get this post to you today, and I've gotta say, I'm pumped about it. The recipe required a lot of tweaking and testing throughout the week, as well as a lot of blood, sweat, and tears as I've tried to figure out why my computer and...
Southwestern Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet
Have you been keeping up with things around here? If so, you already know that James and I moved in together last month, and so far it's been a meltdown-free experience so I'm going to label it a success. As I write this, I'm sitting on our nicely made bed with our new sheets, comforter, pillows,...
Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Noodle Soup
January is always a month of confusion for me-- How long will it take me to remember to write "/16" when I'm jotting down the date? When did it get so cold? When did my jeans get so snug? And on that note, will I flood the blog with healthy recipes? Or should I focus on fattier (and far...
White Chicken Lasagna Roll Ups
Sure, at first glance, it may just look like a big dish of tender pasta, creamy white sauce, and melted cheese, but it's really so much more than that. Well, actually, that's pretty much exactly what it is. But there's also shredded chicken and spinach tucked between each rolled noodle, which both gives it a...
Spicy Garlic Crunch Chicken
I went through a bit of a recipe slump recently where I'd think of recipes, write up the ingredients I thought I'd need and their approximate amounts, and then minutes before going to the grocery store, I'd completely change my mind and decide that I didn't want to make those dishes anymore. And then I'd...
Baked Chicken Nuggets with Honey Mustard Dip
This year, Chick-Fil-A took the title of the fast food restaurant with the highest customer satisfaction, based off of a survey of just over 5,000 consumers. You might say it's due to their friendly staff, or perhaps their clean kitchens, but I say it's all about the chicken nuggets. Those crispy, salty, slightly-sweet Chick-Fil-A...
Chicken and Broccoli in Garlic Sauce
As you might know already from last week's Sweet and Sour Chicken and Loaded Vegetable Lo Mein, I'm on a takeout-at-home kick this month. When I first decided to do a series of quick, lightened-up versions of fast food and takeout meals, I wasn't sure of all the dishes I'd wind up trying to replicate, but...
Sweet and Sour Chicken
The feeling you get when you're eating Chinese takeout is kind of strange, isn't it? It's part excitement and part self-hatred. Part, "I'm way too full to continue eating," and part, "I'll just eat that delicious egg roll they threw in and then I'm done. Oh, and a bit more rice. And I can't not eat...
Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers
I can feel football season in the air. It's coming. I keep hearing whispers of fantasy football drafts, predictions for the season, and plans for tailgates, and I am beyond excited. Not because of some burning, deep-in-my-soul love for the game (although I have to admit, I get a little bit intense when the season heats up),...
Chipotle Chicken Fried Rice
I have a weakness for Chinese takeout, especially with a heaping side of soy sauce-drenched fried rice. In fact, I always order extra so that I can eat the leftovers for lunch the next day... or two... or three. What can I say? I really like fried rice. So when I was asked to participate in the...
Tandoori Chicken Naan Pizza
Worried about making pizza dough from scratch? Keep calm and carry naan. These are not your typical pizzas-- instead of tomato sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella, we're using tandoori chicken, mango, red onion, mint, cilantro, and yogurt... oh, and mozzarella, because in the end, you just can't nix the mozz. Do you know what happens when...
Easy Greek Tzatziki Chicken Salad
Is it too late for me to start working on getting a bikini bod in time for summer? Yes? Probably? But I mean I have this Easy Greek Tzatziki Chicken Salad, and that has to count for something. You see, this spin on chicken salad fulfills some pretty difficult criteria: it's healthy, it's simple, and it...
Crock Pot Chicken Tinga Tacos with Bacon Pico De Gallo
Happy Cinco de Mayo! How are you going to celebrate? (Pssst! If you're not planning on eating tacos tonight, it's time to reevaluate your choices.) Lately I've been absolutely swamped with things to do, so I've been trying to be a bit minimalistic in the kitchen. Simple recipes with a relatively short list of ingredients...
Honey Dijon Chicken Cheesesteaks on Pretzel Rolls
My mom is not a big eater. She is perfectly content having salad for dinner most nights, and she sticks to small portion sizes when she eats anything else. I did not inherit my endless (and frighteningly insatiable) appetite from her. But sometimes she surprises me, like when I told her that she could have the first taste...
Chipotle Ranch Chicken & Avocado Potstickers with Cilantro Lime Dip
Crispy bottoms and chewy tops make potstickers one of my favorite ways to eat appetizers. I don't just mean Asian-inspired appetizers, either; People typically think of potstickers as being filled with gingery pork, scallions, and cabbage, but you really can put anything in them! This time, I decided to go with a Tex Mex flavored...
Slow Cooker Thai Chicken and Noodles
When I was in college, if you asked me what I'd like to eat, the answer was always "Thai food". There was a little restaurant in the corner of a strip mall that was tucked behind the highway, with a big sign on the front window that boasted "The Best Thai Cuisine in Town"-- rightfully...
One Pot Creamy Jalapeno Popper Chicken and Rice
A lot of my recipes are born out of laziness. Laziness or resourcefulness, depending on how you look at it. When I made this recipe, I was too resourceful to wash a ton of dishes. I was also too resourceful to drag myself out to the grocery store. I had a serious craving for One Pot Cheesy Chicken Taco Rice last week, but I found...
Butter Chicken Pot Pie with Naan Crust
It never fails-- when there's snow on the ground and a grumbling in my stomach, I always crave comfort food in the form of Chicken Pot Pie. Juicy chicken, tender vegetables, and creamy sauce all nestled beneath crisp, golden crust; that's my idea of cold weather consolation. Everything about Chicken Pot Pie screams "All-American classic"... but...
Chicken Cacciatore
When I used to think "date night", I didn't think "chicken". Medium-rare steaks, juicy pork tenderloin, butter-drenched lobster; sure. But chicken? Nah. It's just too boring. Too bland. Not sexy enough. However, after 3 years of James begging me to make Chicken Cacciatore, I finally caved. I had eaten it before-- a simple meal of tomatoes, peppers,...
Buffalo Chicken Mozzarella Logs
The Super Bowl is in less than two weeks, which means that I'm going to make as many appetizers as possible to pile into my face hole until the big game arrives. Sometimes, I'll even combine appetizers because I just can't choose between them. Who doesn't love a little hybrid hors d'ouevre? Anyway, I'll be sharing...
Crispy-Skinned Baked Chicken Wings + Honey Chipotle Garlic Sauce
I am not what we'd call "proper" when it comes to table manners. I rest my elbows on the table. I devour my dinner in record time. If I chew on gristle or bone, I'll stick my hands right in my mouth and pick it out without a second thought. When I eat, I can guarantee...
