If you've never cooked with achiote paste, you're in for a treat! This roasted achiote chicken is juicy, tender, citrusy and packed with rich Mexican flavours from a homemade achiote paste. You can easily purchase them online, but it is so much better when made at home, as you can use fresher ingredients and control everything that goes into it.
Achiote paste is a popular seasoning widely used in Mexican, Central American, and Caribbean cuisines. It’s made with annatto seeds, garlic, oregano, spices, optional chillies, and citrus juice. Known for their distinctive red colour, earthy, zesty flavour, they are excellent as a marinade for meat. Store the prepared paste in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.

Poul Nan Sos, aka Haitian Chicken Stew, is rich and full of amazing flavours. Juicy, tender skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs are marinated overnight with onions, garlic, rosemary (or thyme), scotch bonnet, and citrus before they are stewed with tomato paste and loads of bell peppers. This satisfying, ultra-flavourful stew is a perfect dish for a weeknight dinner with rice and/or beans and fried green plantains.

A cheap and effortless way to jazz up chicken! Juicy chicken legs are filled with tangy Greek feta, garlic and fennel, then roasted until golden and irresistible. Pungent, earthy, and slightly peppery fresh oregano complements the tangy lemon, briny feta and rich chicken flavours beautifully. If unavailable, you can substitute it with thyme or rosemary. I used skin on boneless chicken legs, but you can leave the bone in or use 8 chicken thighs. Half the feta filling if you are going to use a whole chicken. Easy to make, but it's still fancy enough to serve at a dinner party.

Add some flair to your next Sunndy family meal with this succulent and crispy pork belly stuffed with toasted pistachios, green olives and herbs. Paired with soft, sweet apple and fennel for a well-rounded meal and it's a sure-fire winner for any special occasion. Add other vegetables (onions, mushrooms, squash and tomtoes) to the fennels and use pears or quince instead of apples if you like. Next time I will cut down the fennel seeds to 1 teaspoon or even leave it out completely and season the pork skin just with sea salt.

If you're into vibrant, smoky, fiery, and zesty food, you will love this African-inspired chicken tariq. Tariq here refers to the Rock of Gibraltar island, which comes from the Arabic Jabal Tariq ("Mountain of Tariq"), named after the Arabic commander Tariq ibn Ziyad. While geographically European, its proximity to Africa and historical ties, the food in Gibraltar blends British pub grub, Spanish tapas, and North African flavours. Creamy yohugrt and spicy harissa create a tender, flavourful, and golden crispy baked chicken dish that you'll turn to time and time again. The yoghurt tenderize the chicken and adds creaminess, balancing the harissa's heat for a rich, zesty flavour. Great to serve with flatbread, rice or just a simple salad.

Traditionally Portuguese chicken is prepared with a piri piri sauce. In this recipe, I took the liberty of making a marinade using dried chilli powder instead of piri piri chilli peppers. While this recipe might seem not authentic, they do taste amazing! For optimal results, the marinade should be left on the chicken for at least 2 hours, but even better if left overnight. Instead of white asparagus, you can use sliced potatoes or pumpkin.

Looking for a healthy recipe idea with lots of bitter compounds? This Belgian endive and pomegranate salad is a true celebration of flavours and textures. The bitterness of the Belgian endive is perfectly balanced by the sweet and sour pomegranate seeds, and crispy bacon adds a great texture and depth of flavour, making this dish an elegant and refreshing experience.
Belgian endive, aka witloof (meaning ‘white leaf'), sometimes referred to as ‘white gold', leads a shadowy existence, in the truest sense of the word. On the one hand, Belgian endive grows in the dark to control its colour and to achieve the desirable flavour, and on the other hand, it is often overlooked in the vegetable section. Yet it is a wonderful winter vegetable that can be prepared in many different ways and is very healthy. Endive is nutritious and rich in fiber. It is a good source of potassium and calcium and vitamins A, B, C and E, and very low in calories.

A seasonal and delicious twist on classic tomato salsa, this chunky pumpkin salsa makes a tasty appetizer with cheese or a condiment for tortilla chips or simply serves over some roasted chicken. If desired, you can also add some diced avocado and tomatoes to the mix. Instead of roasting, you can also blanch the pumpkins in boiling water for 10 minutes or until just tender. Drain well before using.
