Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my skillet chicken thighs recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. Chicken – This recipe is designed for bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, providing that super crispy skin you just can’t get with skinless boneless cuts. If you prefer white meat, make my pan seared chicken breast instead. Olive Oil – I use olive oil for searing to get perfect crispy skin, but you can use any heat-safe oil, like avocado oil....
It’s been a while since I posted a polenta bowl recipe. I never realized I had such a thing for polenta bowls, but they tend to make frequent appearances on this site, and I guess it’s been a while. Relatively speaking anyhow. I got a craving recently and decided it was about time for more polenta. It is winter after all, and what better meal to enjoy than a piping hot bowl of stewy goodness over some creamy grits....
Another day, another dip, another reason I’ll literally never own a six pack 😂 So worth it though. Follow me… Cheese and Chive Dip I’m not sure if this is just a UK dip, but this dip is legendary. Sometimes called Sour Cream, Cheese and Chive dip and usually found in those multipacks you can buy. Yep, you’re with me. Well, this is it. Tastes just like it. But better (of course!...
If this recipe doesn’t embody everything that comfort food should be, I really don’t know what does. Follow me… Potato Bake Okay, quick back story. When I first started testing this recipe I was actually going for a ‘chicken and chorizo pie’ kinda deal. As some of you already know, just like my Chicken and Bacon Pie, I like a potato topping as opposed to the classic pastry! Mashed potato wasn’t overly suited for this recipe, so instead, I ended up cubing the potatoes to scatter on top....
Creamy and decadent Coconut Ice Cream is made with just a few Ingredients and has tons of coconut flavor. It might sound like a showoff, but I bet this Ice cream is as good as the store-bought ones. Another best thing is there are no artificial ingredients or preservatives in it. All you need is Cream, Powdered sugar, Coconut milk, Condensed milk, and toasted coconut here. No Ice crystal, light and airy, a bowl of this ice cream is a real treat....

Back at it again with another delicious way to spruce up some fresh ravioli! I’ve got a feeling you’re going to really love this one 😋. Follow me… Tuscan Pasta Sauce I’m of course using the term ‘Tuscan’ fairly loosely here, but it is giving me Tuscan vibes. Mainly because I’m currently sitting here in freezing Edinburgh with visions of me eating this in the Tuscany sun. Sighs. Also, it seems that anything with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach is considered Tuscan these days, so here we are!...
What Makes This Recipe So Good I love this time of year. There’s usually a party for something, whether it’s Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, football games, bonfires, birthdays – whatever. And with those fall and winter parties comes the absolute best party foods. Don’t get me wrong, I love summer party foods, too, with all the fruits and salads and fresh veggies and bright flavors. But when the weather cools off, out come the slow cookers and dips and rich, deep, warm flavors and heavy comfort foods....
🤤 What Makes This Recipe So Good Some recipes that use ground chicken can be a little dry and have an off-putting texture, but not this one! These pan-fried chicken patties are incredibly juicy, seasoned perfectly, and have the perfect crisp exterior. Chicken patties are surprisingly versatile! I love them as burgers or in wraps, but they’re great on their own, too! You can also serve them with pasta, a small spinach salad, or with a helping of tender broccoli and potatoes....

Why This Soup Is So Good The Instant Pot makes this recipe a total breeze. It has all the comfort and goodness of a soup that’s simmered on the stove all day, but it goes from fridge to table in roughly an hour. It’s really super easy to make and is TOTALLY homemade! Since it’s homemade, it’s cost effective, and you can load it with as much flavor as you like....
I’ll be frank: I have a tendency to resist pasta dishes like this one. I’m a sauce kind of girl. I grew up in a family where spaghetti with marinara sauce was at least a weekly thing (at least!), and while we occasionally ventured out and tried a different type of sauce, we rarely went with something so minimalist as olive oil and lemon juice. But you know what? I’ve always ordered olive oil pasta dishes at restaurants, and loved them....
Pulao is one of our favourites and I make it at least once every two weeks. It doesn’t always have to be some special occasion to make pulao in my home. Husband loves flavoured rice in any form and he is always up for it. In a way, it makes my life also easier. So it is always a win-win for us. Both of us have fond memories of childhood related to pulao....

So, how’s everyone’s summer veggie gardens coming along? Mine was doing fine until about a week ago when, as far as I can tell, a single baby bunny completely decimated most of it. I’ve still got my tomato plants, but he made off with the first of my bell peppers, an entire Italian kale plant, and snagged all of the leaves and pod off of my six edamame plants. And this is all just one little baby bunny!...
I feel like pumpkin and apple get all the attention when it comes to fall desserts. I’m totally guilty of favoring these flavors myself, with good reason — they’re delicious! I love my apple cake and pumpkin cake. But today I’m sharing a delicious cake recipe that stars one of the season’s more underappreciated flavors: pear! This cake highlights the mellow sweetness of pears. It’s a really simple dessert, which is great because not only is it easy to whip up, but it really lets the flavor and texture of fresh pears shine....
Sometimes I like to take a purist, from-scratch approach with my recipes. And other times I just want dinner on the table as soon as possible. Okay, maybe the latter happens more often. But when I take shortcuts, I try to have them make sense. Case in point: when I set out to develop a recipe for vegan pumpkin soup, I decided to make it with canned pumpkin. Most veggies I like to use fresh, but pumpkin is a bit of project to prep, and over the years I’ve realized that canned pumpkin actually makes the best pumpkin soup....
