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.

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.

A simple, bold and flavour-packed weeknight meal! North African harissa-spiced chicken and saffron basmati rice and golden saffron rice all cooked in one pan and topped with dill, cucumber and pomegranate seeds when it comes out the oven. Just put everything in the pan and let the oven do the magic. No pre-searing. No stirring. No stress. The result is a comforting and flavorful meal that’s ready to serve in under an hour.
Mary Berry’s Smoky Texan Chicken Wings

These smoky wings have a delicious balance of sweet and savoury with a hint of chilli, making them a great party food or the ideal meal with a salad or coleslaw for family or friends. Chicken wings without the bony tips are best for this dish. You’ll need to marinate this dish for at least 2 hours before cooking. I usually left mine overnight.
