For Honey Soy drumsticks and bone in thighs, use this recipe. For boneless thigh and breast, use this recipe. Honey Soy Wings I’m generally a fan of any food you can eat with your hands and wings are pretty high up on my list. Add the word “sticky” and I’m all in! The key to making these really sticky in the oven without fussing with sauce reduction on the stove or cornflour slurries is to drain off the watery chicken juices partway through baking before adding the honey soy sauce....

What is halloumi? Most people associate Halloumi Cheese with Greece, but it actually originated in Cyprus in the Medieval Byzantine period, then gained popularity throughout the rest of the Middle East region. Traditionally it is made with a blend of goats and sheep milk, however, in countries where it’s difficult to source these milks, it can also be made with cow’s milk. Halloumi has a distinctive layered texture similar to mozzarella and has a salty flavour due to it being brined in a salt water solution....

Try these easy tips for making soft boiled eggs easier to peel so you can enjoy them anytime! There’s nothing like having soft-boiled eggs for breakfast. A perfectly soft-boiled egg has that custard-like white and irresistibly runny yolk is such sight to behold! The only problem is, those shells are tough to crack. Sometimes, no matter how careful you are, you still end up breaking the yolk mid-peel, ending up with a goopy mess....

I’m quite unabashed in my love of beans, especially black beans. They’re ultra affordable, high in protein and fiber, and work well in recipes that range from Crock Pot Mexican Casserole to my favorite Instant Pot Chili to even brownies (I haven’t tried my own recipe yet—anyone interested?—but this Black Bean Brownies recipe has my eye). For maximum weeknight ease, I usually reach for canned black beans, but I know from personal experience that when you cook the beans yourself from dried instead of using canned beans, their texture is far superior....

Shredded chicken is one of my favorite ways to use the Instant Pot, but it doesn’t have to stop at the plain version. Enter… this Instant Pot buffalo chicken recipe!

While thousands of ethnic dishes have been successfully adapted to our Western palates, we still seek authenticity and value it over convenience of using readily available local ingredients, taking shortcuts during preparation and enjoying familiar tastes. Sometimes, when trying authentic dishes, I fall in love with them so much that I make my best to recreate them at home and save the recipes in my recipe box for future use....

You can use this marinade as the base to make baked Asian chicken and honey garlic baked chicken drumsticks as well, it works really well. Just make sure to marinate the chicken overnight and up to 24 hours for best results. Now, you can mix the ingredients up, cover chicken thighs, marinate for 30 minutes and bake, and they will taste quite good. But if you let them marinate in a fridge for a few hours or even longer, say overnight, they will blow your mind with intense, deep and complex flavors, and tender and juicy meat....

The homemade seasoning mix is what makes these chicken wings so darn good. It’s simple, yet very effective. Store-bought lemon pepper mixes are OK, but not great. Compared to freshly grated lemon zest mixed with freshly ground black pepper, they lack flavor and taste stale. Some are too high in sodium.

(This post is sponsored by The J.M. Smucker Company. All opinions are my own.) These past months have been chaos! We bought our first house and started moving the next day. Exciting, right? But we decided to do it ourselves, which led to a journey from hell of over a week to get all our stuff out before the apartment lease ended. The day after everything was finally moved, I was sitting on our unassembled couch pillows, on the floor, when I noticed Lola (our Cocker Spaniel) looking kinda sad....

A healthy homemade BBQ sauce is exactly what you need to take your dinner from bland to outstanding. But where on earth do you find one? Getting high quality, low carb sauces on the shelf at your local grocery market isn’t easy… and when you do, sugar-free BBQ sauce is usually code for flavor-free, as well. And no one wants that. No, what you need is a rich, tangy, smoky sugar-free barbecue sauce that will take your chicken, ribs, or whatever else you’re cooking up to the next level!...
