Braised Chicken with Belgian Endive
Tuesday, May 12, 2026| |
|
A delicious pairing that balances the savory, juicy chicken thighs with the slightly bitter, creamy texture of the roasted Beligum endives. Dry white wine serves multiple functional roles here, keeping the chicken moist and tender while adding depth of flavour and adding a balancing acidity to the salty flavours from the bacon. Serve it with some crusty bread to mop up the sauce or over some buttered noodles.

For preserved lemon paste, just toss the deseeded homemade or storebought preserved lemons into a food processor and process them to a paste.

Skillet Preserved Lemon Chicken

Preserved lemons offer a unique salty, tangy, and subtly sweet flavour that works well with poultry, seafood, lamb, and vegetables. To make the marinade, you just dump everything in your blender or processor and blend everything until smooth. Use it to marinate chicken for 1-2 hours. I wouldn’t marinate them longer than 6 hours as acidity in lemon could cook the chicken and change the texture if you leave them too long. The marinade made with preserved lemon gives chicken a unique and mouthwatering intensity of citrus flavour with less sharp acidity than fresh lemon.

Chicken Cracklings
Thursday, April 09, 2026These crispy, zero-carb, keto-friendly chicken cracklings taste delicious on their own or as a starter with delicious dips and sauces. You can also use chicken cracklings to add some crunch to a salad or soup. They are incredibly easy to make, either in an air fryer or oven. Both work pretty well, but I personally preferred the air fryer. Make sure to save the rendered fat, aka schmatlz, for later cooking.

Everyday Spiced Chicken and Radishes
Friday, March 27, 2026| |
|
This easy chicken recipe is especially delicious and vibrant, with peppery radishes absorbing the savoury drippings of the chicken. It's a budget and healthy dinner that's easy to make for the family yet impressive enough for company. I like to toss the greens of the radishes with the pan juices until just wilted because they take on tons of flavour and provide the perfect bitter contrast. If the radish leaves ain’t fresh enough, you can use spinach or other greens. Or simply use arugula as the orginal recipe suggested.
If you’ve never roasted a radish, you’re seriously missing out. Eaten raw, radishes are crunchy in texture with a distinctively peppery bite, but once roasted and absorbed the luxurious chicken schmaltz, they are sweet, earthy and mellow...just like low-carb potatoes.
