Liver Tigania
Today’s dish is a sharing plate of liver with onions that have melted away, olive oil, wine, bay and finished with a good squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of dried Greek oregano.
Goat Kokkinisto
When cooking with lamb or goat, it’s important you source quality meat and the younger it is, the less gamey and the quicker it will cook.
Turkey Pastitsada
Another variation using leftover Turkey from Canadian Thanksgiving.
Dry-Brined Roast Turkey
What made me try dry-brining? Easier with the same results.
Fried Chicken (The Best)
If you’re a fan of fried chicken and you want to try making it at home, this recipe is for you.
Seafood Boil
One of the best, tastiest and “big show” ways to entertain family and friends is to host a seafood boil. A seafood boil is an informal meal where an array of seafood are boiled in a seasoned liquid and when cooked, the contents are simply laid out for all to pick and eat what they want.
Tuna Poke
On occasion, I just don’t want to cook in the kitchen and you want something cooling to fill your belly. There’s a Hawaiian dish called poke, a quick marinate of cubed fish and it is often served on a bowl of rice and assorted condiments or (in this case) like an appetizer.
Juicy Grilled Chicken Thighs
If one were to ask what are classic Greek flavours, my mind goes to olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and oregano. That’s pretty much how we serve up chicken, be it roasted or on the grill.
Beef Lemonato With Zucchini
I had this beef with zucchini last summer in Greece. One of my aunts cooked it and with a few tweaks, I’ve made my own version.
Spinach Salad with Radicchio & Feta
Radicchio is in the chicory family, can be eaten raw in salads but I’ve seen wedges of it grilled as well. It grows best in Spring and Fall and most grocery stores carry it.
Beside this being a tasty salad, it’s also an attractive one with the green and purple contrasts. Some crumbled feta, walnuts and you’ll find this salad refreshing and filling.
