KFC fried chicken There are a wide range of restaurants that offer fried chicken on their menus. From KFC and Chick-fil-a to upscale trendy restaurants, there is a bit of a trend that can satisfy the cravings of fried chicken lovers in a variety of settings and price points. But that is not to say that making fried chicken at home is out of your grasp. It is certainly a worthwhile endeavor for those who want that crunchy exterior that yields to its juicy, tender interior with all of the flavor and texture that we have come to expect....

There are dozens of very good grilled pork chop marinades but this one really stands out. There is something about it that makes the taste very special. Perhaps it’s the perfect balance of sweet, pungent, savory, salty and tangy notes. Or the Asian-inspired flavors that are bold and big. Pork chops made with this marinade are out of bounds. There is plenty of flavor in every bite. This is the kind of a pork chop you just want to keep eating....

I’m still on my Indian food kick! Obviously my chicken korma, coconut curry chicken and tandoori chicken recipes needed a side dish, and keto naan bread – or low carb naan as it’s also called – is it! This keto naan with almond flour makes a delicious flatbread that pairs perfectly with Indian food, but also would be a great side to soup or salad. I can’t wait to hear what you all think about this keto naan recipe!...

This mango spinach banana smoothie is not only incredibly healthy, but it’s also refreshing, creamy, and flat-out DELISH. Now, before you question whether or not a green smoothie can truly taste that good, what if I said you can add mango and banana to your smoothie for a flavor that tastes like a tropical vacay? Now we’re talking. <—Unless I caught you mid-slurp. Go ahead and finish. We can high five over a healthy breakfast smoothie that’s reminiscent of an island getaway as soon as you come up for air....

The first few days of January are always bittersweet for me. I anticipate the holidays so much, then whoosh. One second I’m eating my family’s favorite Chestnut Stuffing and playing with my niece on Christmas morning, then the next I’m home and facing a loooooong winter. As much as I’d like to rewind and relive the long Christmas weekend over and over (another helping of Healthy Sweet Potato Casserole, please), I know part of what makes the holidays special is that they come but once a year....

Pav bhaji, Vada pav, misal pav and masala pav are some of the foods made with Indian dinner rolls. Each of one of these are so much flavorful, delicious and easy to make at home. For hygiene reasons, these are best prepared at home. I prefer to make all of these at home as my kids keep asking. Making masala pav is the easiest of all these and just takes about 20 to 25 mins....

About Matar Paneer Matar Paneer is a popular North Indian dish of Indian cottage cheese aka Paneer and peas cooked in a spicy and flavorsome curry. Matar Paneer translates to peas paneer where ‘Matar’ is the Hindi word for ‘peas’ and ‘paneer’ for “Indian cheese”. This classic dish is said to have originated in Punjab region but is made in numerous ways across the country. Every Indian home and even every family may have a different recipe....

It’s also the latest installment to the “I’m in my sweatpants and going to the store sounds like a lot of effort, so let’s see if I can avoid it” saga (this popular Chipotle Bowl was the first episode if you’d like to catch up). Better use of on-hand ingredients. No need to put on real clothes. This is clearly a win-win recipe (like Taco Salad and Cowboy Chicken) that we all can (and should) support....

FavoritePinShare Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder is loaded with tender chicken, sweet corn, fresh tomatoes, a kick of spice seasonings all simmered in a creamy, cheese blend that is so easy to make! It has just enough of a kick to it and the flavor is incredible. This will be one of the best chowders that you will eat! If you love chowder as much as we do try this Best Ever Creamy Clam Chowder, Delicious Corn Chowder and enjoy Homemade Cornbread on the side....

Sizzle aside, this homemade version is a near perfect replica. Even the velveted texture of the lamb! Mongolian Lamb Mongolian Lamb is a Chinese stir fry that’s made with tenderised, marinated strips of lamb in a dark sweet-savoury sauce perfumed with Chinese Five Spice. It’s not an authentic Chinese dish, and almost certainly has nothing to do with Mongolia. The truth is nobody really knows why it’s called Mongolian Lamb....

Nando’s Chicken Copycat – and exciting news!! A few months ago, I got an email that I never dreamed of receiving. {Abbreviated} “Hi Nagi. I’m Rebecca, the editor of Super Food Ideas, Australia’s top selling food magazine….I love the way you write – friendly, understanding and self-deprecating; and also your recipes are fab. It got me thinking, is there some way that we could work together? I think your recipes would be perfect for my readers…....

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! It’s officially less than a month until Christmas so it’s completely acceptable to bring out the Christmas recipes and I’m kicking it off with these Oreo Cheesecake Balls. Oreo balls, or oreo truffles as they are also known, have been around for years but I still find people who are yet to try them. And boy are you in for a treat if you haven’t!...

So fast and easy to prepare, you can make this tonight! Oven baked pork chops recipe I have no idea what to call the sauce I use for these pork chops. I just think it sounds cute to say “country-style rub” so that’s what I go with! (Though from a practical perspective, the ingredients are akin to what I use to make country-style ribs.) It’s savoury with a touch of sweet, balanced out with a bit of acidity....

This apple, onion and cider-braised pork roast has ‘autumn’ written all over it, but it’s hard not to like it at any time of the year, even summer. This dish would also be a great option if you want to supplement turkey for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. It’s very simple, relatively quick to make and is quite fool-proof. There is no need to worry about the internal meat temperature and meat thermometers....

FavoritePinShare If you have not experienced an overnight breakfast casserole, this is the one to try! I was able to throw it together before we went to bed, and pull it out in the morning and have a delicious breakfast ready for all of us! I sure do love my peaches and cream french toast but I think this one became my new favorite! It is heavenly with the blueberry topping and the bits of cream cheese throughout....

This is a cookbook exclusive recipe! This recipe is exclusive to my debut cookbook Dinner which includes a how-to video for every recipe. Just scan the QR code! Just to explain…. I know, it’s confusing! You’re so used to getting recipes on my website – there’s over 1,200 of them, after all. And here you are looking at a tasty recipe video and I haven’t provided the recipe. 🙀 I’m not just doing this to torture you, I promise....

You’ll love how these are crispy yet juicy, savoury and salty…. but the crowning glory is how the topping ends up like crunchy parmesan wafers!!! SUPER SPEEDY ROASTED GREEN BEANS These roasted green beans are so speedy to prepare and so darn tasty, you’ll be picking at them straight off the pan! This is how this recipe goes down: Trim the ends of the green beans (see video for the way I do this); Pile on tray drizzle with oil, scatter with garlic, salt & pepper, toss; Line up on tray, squishing together....

I feel wrongfully punished by the brevity of peach season, an injustice I bear by purchasing peaches in irrational quantities. Using my supply to work peaches into every meal (this list of peach recipes has plenty of ideas to keep us busy) is a challenge I embrace with enthusiasm, starting with breakfast. A Peach Smoothie is the move when I want a best-behavior healthy start. For something more indulgent, I’ve been known to top Peach Crisp with yogurt and call it breakfast....

FavoritePinShare An oreo crust, a creamy peanut butter cheesecake center with peanut butter cups, and a chocolate pudding whipped topping. And no baking required! Can you see why this is heaven? When I die and go to heaven (fingers crossed I make it there), I picture a table of food waiting for me. It will have all of my favorite foods on it. From Cafe Rio pulled pork to all of my favorite desserts....
