Coconut Chicken Curry with Sweetcorn
Tuesday, November 03, 2026| |
|
Crisp, golden and juicy chicken legs simmered in a creamy, fragrant, gently curried coconut sauce, this easy chicken dinner with restaurant-worthy flavour pairs beautifully with hot basmati rice or flatbreads. Tinned corn offers convenience and can be used all year round, but if you have fresh or even frozen one, use them instead.
Roasted Chicken Legs with Quince
Wednesday, October 28, 2026| |
|
The aroma of roasting juicy chicken legs with the deliciously caramelized quince will warm your body and soul on a chilly autumn/winter day. With a tantalizing mix of cozy spices, mellow onions, red wine and woody thyme, this one pan dish is the ultimate blueprint for a comforting, deeply flavourful meal.
Quince is a hard, golden-yellow fruit related to apples and pears in the rose family. Raw quince is very hard, tart, woody and astringent, so the only way to eat quince is to cook it. When you cook a quince low and slow, it turns soft and sweet with a rich, floral flavour. They can be roasted or poached, or peeled, cored and sliced into pies, tarts, cakes and crisps and fantastic in savoury dishes too.
Chicken Wings with Spicy Herb Sauce
Tuesday, October 20, 2026| |
|
Tender, flavour-packed chicken wings drenched in a fresh and mildly spicy herb sauce with a perfect balance of heat, acid, and freshness, creating that addictive, "moreish" quality that will have your taste buds dancing and keep you coming back for another bite. I have used only mild jalapeño for the sauce, if you love hot wings, then use significantly spicier habanero or a mix of two peppers instead. The sauce can be prepared a few hours ahead.
Vinegar-Braised Chicken with Leeks and Peas
Tuesday, October 06, 2026| |
|
This French bistro-inspired chicken recipe from Food and Wine delivers everything you want for a low effort yet delicious and comforting weeknight meal. The bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are browned until golden, then nestled into a luscious sauce brightened and balanced with white balsamic vinegar and finished with herbs and crème fraîche. Sweet, meltingly creamy leeks and bright green peas add freshness and balance the richness of the dish. If you don’t have tarragon, use fennel fonds or add a tiny pinch of anise seed to replicate its signature sweet, licorice-like flavour.
Sweet Chilli Chicken Traybake

|
Sweet, savoury and spicy, this chicken traybake is not only delicious, also ready in 30 minutes and makes a great weeknight meal. Use homemade sugar free chilli sauce if you can, otherwise, storebought one will work in a pinch. Chinese broccoli or gailan will be ideal for the recipe, but other veggies like broccolini, pakchoi or asparagus are nice substitutes. It’s naturally glutenfree and keto-friendly.
Chicken Liver Salad with Arugula, Pomegranate and Figs
Wednesday, September 30, 2026Rich chicken livers are a perfect match with bitter, peppery arugula, sweet earthy figs (or refreshingly tangy grapefruit) in this warm, nutritious salad with a sweet pomegranate dressing. It’s easy to make, delicious and so versatile. Feel free to add some boiled green beans, sliced mushrooms, onions or fennel to make the salad even more interesting and fun to eat. For extra crunch and texture, sprinkle some toasted nuts over.
Chicken liver, aka "nature's multivitamin" is an exceptionally healthy, one of the most nutrient-dense superfood available.
Pomegranate molasses (available on Amazon or middle eastern grocery stores) is reduced pomegranate juice that’s dark, intensely tart, fruity with subtle sweetness. A little bit of pomegranate molasses goes a long way for the dressing. When buying pomegrante molasses, make sure you get the one made from 100% pomegranate.

Poulet Rôti au Vin Rouge, aka Rachel Khoo's Roast Red Wine Chicken : tender, juicy chicken thighs slowly braised in red wine together with sweet Dutch carrots and herbs. Everything cooks together in one tray making it a fast and simple meal with easy preparation and barely any washing up. I personally prefer bone in, skin on chicken thighs, but feel free to use a whole chicken as the original recipe calls for. I skipped the potatoes and used Dutch carrots, which are young, small, and slender carrots sold in bunches with their green tops attached.

|
This creamy turmeric chicken recipe is so full of flavour, packed with warm spices and so easy to make in your skillet. Coming together in just 30 minutes, perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. I used boneless whole chicken legs for the recipe, if you are using bone-in chicken thighs or drumsticks, then they will need a longer cook time, so adjust accordingly.
Pollochón - Puerto Rican Lechón-Flavored Roast Chicken
Thursday, August 27, 2026| |
|
Inspired by the flavours of Puerto Rican lechón, this highly umami-rich roast chicken is a bold yet delicious take on roast poultry that’s rooted in Puerto Rican culinary traditions. Lechón, the crown jewel of of Puerto Rican cuisine, is a whole suckling pig slow-roasted over open flames or charcoal. Heavily and heavenly seasoned with a paste that’s made with lots of garlic, oregano, and adobo seasoning, it is known for its incredibly juicy meat and prized crackling skin. In this recipe the adobo paste is massaged under the skin and over every nook of the bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, infusing it with savoury, bold, tangy, herbaceous notes that deepen as it roasts.
Braised Chicken Thighs with Sauerkraut and Apple
Friday, August 21, 2026| |
|
Juicy, tender chicken thighs are braised in tangy, gut-healthy sauerkraut (homemade if possbile), smoky bacon, sour apple and sweet, mellow onion, piney, earthy juniper berries for a hearty, classic one-pot meal. If you cannot find juniper berries, use a tablespoon or two of gin or fresh rosemary, esp. if you are looking for herbal, piney flavour.
Pomegranate and Sumac Roast Chicken
Monday, August 17, 2026| |
|
An easy chicken sheet pan recipe that can be marinated ahead of time and has an amazing Middle Eastern flavour. Sumac, known for its deep burgundy colour and lemony flavour, pairs beautifully with the deep, sweet notes of pomegranate molasses, creating a meal that’s exotic, exciting and deeply comforting. I have served it with a bulgur salad, but a rice pilaf or bread would be just great too. If you don’t want to use chicken legs, the recipe also works with a whole chicken, jointed into eight pieces.
Chicken Dopiaza
Thursday, August 13, 2026Chicken dopiaza is an easy, mildly spiced, thick curry originated in India. It is famous for its "double onion" method. The word Dopiaza literally means two onions. One batch of chopped onions are stir-fried in ghee for the masala sauce, and after the chicken and spices are added to the pan, it is the second batch of sliced onions’ turn. You can make this curry with any type of protein or even seafood.
