I have always been a huge Chick-fil-A fan! From the time I was a kid growing up in Houston, I used to love to go to the mall because Chick-fil-A would pass out samples of their amazing, perfectly crispy chicken. It was deliciously different! My folks and I would, of course, grab a sample on…
Chicken Recipes
Chicken is the workhorse of the small kitchen — versatile, affordable, and genuinely delicious when you treat it right. These are the recipes that prove it: from a 15-minute weeknight dinner to something special enough for date night. Built for one or two, every time.
Sourdough Grilled Chicken Sandwich: : The Perfect Grilling Sandwich : :
Grilled Chicken Breast. In theory, it sounds really good…especially when I am trying to eat a little healthier or I want an alternative to a hamburger. However, when I’m out, so oftentimes I find myself disappointed by a grilled chicken breast. It is usually for one of two reasons…or in the worst-case scenario, two of…
Kabobs!
We’ve been having a bit of a heatwave here in Los Angeles. This past week, we’ve been seeing temperatures over 100°F. I’ve been threatening to head back to Atlanta for some reprieve, but it’s been over 90°F there and then there’s the humidity. All that to say, after a cool start to the Summer, Summer…
Chinese Chicken Salad
I am in love with this Chinese Chicken Salad. That was true the first time I had my first bite of my first Chinese Chicken Salad when I began waiting tables at Stanley’s Restaurant in Sherman Oaks. If you read my blog for the Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette, you know that the Chinese Chicken Salad that…
Maple-Whisky Sheet Pan Chicken
Happy New Year! 2019 has arrived and we’re ready to take on the New Year here on Tiny Kitchen Big Taste. To get the year started on the right foot, all month long, I’ll be featuring some healthier recipes that are big on taste but that won’t break the bank…in terms of calories or cost. …
Calzone
I woke up this morning to the announcement that one of my best friends and his wife just had their new baby, so this Tuesday morning is definitely starting off on the right foot. I am so happy for them and their new 7 lb., 9 oz. bouncing baby girl!! Congratulations! And with me being…
Zoodle Lemon Chicken (As Seen on Hallmark Home & Family)
I’ve been traveling a bit this summer and summer is definitely in full force everywhere I am! When I left Los Angeles, we had 115°F. Albeit a dry heat, it was still really, really hot. Shortly thereafter, I made my way to Atlanta where it was nearly 95°F…not 115°F for sure, but with high humidity,…
Chicken and Artichokes
My Mom’s Chicken and Artichokes ranks right near the top of my most favorite meals as a kid. As soon as she got out the 1980’s dark brown West Bend Electric Skillet with the cream-colored top, I knew the Fucci family was in store for most likely one of two dishes: Chop Suey or Chicken…
Buffalo Chicken Wings
I am the luckiest uncle in the World because I have the coolest niece and nephew in the World. Now, I don’t want to make this a competition, but they are the coolest. 😉 Every time I head to Atlanta, I get to hang out with them and that makes this Uncle Bear (as I’m…
Indoor BBQ Chicken Grill
I have been traveling a bit this winter and my adventures have taken me to places where the temperature has dropped to almost single digits. One word: Brrrrrr. Truth be told, though, I love stepping outside the comforts of home and the not-so-chilly 72°F weather we have here in LA in December and January (and…
Ina Garten’s Perfect Roast Chicken
Sometimes, certain dishes seem intimidating to make. I think roasted chicken is one of those things. If you’ve never cooked a whole chicken before, you just don’t know where to begin. How do I season it? How long do I cook it? What do I do with the bird when I take it out of…
Easy Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas
I love enchiladas, but I never think to make them. For some reason, when I’m in the mood for Mexican food, I always default to tacos. In all fairness, tacos have their own day…Tuesday…so it’s only natural I would think of them first. Darn Taco marketers. Growing up, my mom would make more traditional Enchiladas,…
