Low Fodmap Portuguese Style Chicken Skewers

Low Fodmap Portuguese Style Chicken Skewers

I love grilled meat of any kind. These Low Fodmap Portuguese Style Chicken Skewers have quickly become a family favourite, as they are really tasty and very easy (and quick) to make. Besides, my kids love chicken too, so this is a winner for everyone.

Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad

Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad

I love chicken salads, don’t you? This Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad tastes amazing and will keep you full and satisfied. If you can’t eat bread, the potatoes will help fill you up. However, you can still enjoy this salad in a sandwich of you want.

Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots

Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots

I adore Moroccan food and tagines (also spelled tajines), and this Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots has quickly become a family favourite.

One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice

One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice

Don’t you just love one-pot recipes? I know I do! They come together quickly and they require minimum cleaning after dinner, which is fantastic, especially after you have had a long tiring day. This One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice is one such recipe, and it has yet another merit: it tastes amazing.

Prosciutto Sun-dried Tomato Chicken Meatloaf

Prosciutto Sun-dried Tomato Chicken Meatloaf

As you know, after my gallbladder removal, I have started to gradually re-introduce fats into my diet. I love meatloaf (my mum makes a mean one – click here for the recipe), but I still find beef mince a bit too heavy to digest. So, I have decided to try a chicken meatloaf. That’s how…

Chicken with Black Olive Tapenade

Chicken with Black Olive Tapenade

I often cook chicken at home as it is my kids’ favourite kind of meat, so I know they will eat it without making a fuss. Today’s recipe is Chicken with Black Olive Tapenade and it is a variation of a Rabbit recipe I published a long time ago. In this case, I use chicken…

Pomegranate Chicken Wings

Pomegranate Chicken Wings

Chicken wings are among my favourite appetisers or party food.  They can be made in so many different ways and they always taste delicious.  I love mine baked, but because I coat them in a little bit of flour and bake them for a long time, the skin becomes as crunchy as if they were fried, sans…

Yakitori

Yakitori

Lately I have been on a  bit of a Japanese food bender.  I am discovering more and more dishes, and the more I discover, the more I love Japanese cuisine!  There’s so much more than sushi (which I love too!).  I had heard a lot about Yakitori – 焼き鳥, but I had never eaten them…

Ginger Sesame Chicken

GINGER SESAME CHICKEN

I always have chicken tenders in my freezer… they are very versatile, quick to cook and they always please the whole family.  I love the fact that they are always moist and not dry.  I have never seen these in Italy, where you either buy breast or thighs (or the whole chicken).  I stumbled upon…

CHICKEN SOFFICINI

Today I want to share with you the recipe of chicken sofficini.  If you follow Manu’s Menu, I am sure you will remember my recipe for Ham and Cheese Sofficini – fried pastries filled with ham and cheese, typical Italian comfort food.  Well, during my summer holidays in Sicily, I would eat a lot of fish……

CHICKEN BALLOTINE

For the April Daring Cooks Challenge, Lisa from Parsley, Sage and Sweet has challenged us to debone a whole chicken, using this video by Jacques Pepin as our guide; then stuff it, tie it and roast it, to create a Chicken Ballotine. Wow! What a challenge!  I was absolutely thrilled when I saw it!  I had never…

Roast Brined Chicken

ROAST BRINED CHICKEN

Audax of Audax Artifex was our November 2012 Daring Cooks’ host.  Audax has brought us into the world of brining and roasting, where we brined meat and vegetables and roasted them afterwards for a delicious meal! Wow! I had never brined anything before!  I thought it would be hard and time consuming, but it was neither…

CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA

So, here you have it… one of the most popular Indian dishes in the world.  It is so famous that it has been declared one of the UK’s national dishes!  I did some digging and from what I have gathered, it is more of a restaurant-born dish than a traditional Indian dish (unlike its close…

MURGH TIKKA – CHICKEN TIKKA

A little while ago I shared with you the recipe of one of my favourite Indian appetisers: Seekh Kebab and today is the turn of another one of my favourite meat dishes.  Murgh tikka, or chicken tikka is a very common dish at Indian restaurants around the world and it can be served both as an…

Chicken Salad

CHICKEN SALAD

I must admit that I had my very first chicken salad when I visited the USA in 1997.  Yes… quite late in life (well, I am not THAT old, but the point is, it is not a dish I grew up eating!).  I am not sure why, but it is not something my family would…

Roasted Chicken with potatoes

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES – POLLO AL FORNO CON PATATE

This is one of the most classic Italian dishes and I am surprised it took me so long to post about it!  Besides being quite a common dish, it is also one of the most loved ones.  I don’t think there is even one kid in Italy who does not like it.  And what’s not…

Satay Chicken and Peanut Sauce

SATAY CHICKEN AND PEANUT SAUCE

I love satay, especially chicken satay.  I always order it whenever we eat out and I see it on the menu.  I really enjoy the peanut sauce.  So, I thought of giving it a try at home.  I looked around and found a few recipes, until I settled for Rasa Malaysia’s version.  It was outstanding. …

Chicken liver parcels

CHICKEN LIVER PARCELS

While growing up I never enjoyed eating liver… with one exception: chicken liver.  I do not know why, but it may have been because they taste milder and are less bitter than other liver.  Anyhow, there are 2 dishes made with chicken liver that I have always LOVED and I am going to share one…
