This dish would be just as great using left over chicken or turkey. I love brussel sprouts season and I thought this combination would work really well. Guess what it was! It was creamy, lightly spiced and I love the sweet notes from the apricots. The brussel sprouts and chicken together reminded me of christmas…

Honey and Mustard Chicken and Avocado Salad with Rosemary and Parmesan Crouton’s Recipe
There is something comforting about succulent roast chicken in a salad with the creaminess of avocado. I came across brining from someone else’s blog and it works so well keeping the chicken moist and juicy. Another favourite combo for me is honey and mustard, as it makes a lovely dressing and the honey caramelises the…

Comforting Chicken, Tarragon and Sweet Shallot Casserole Recipe
One good thing about this time of year are one pots. I love a casserole, they usually include lots of vegetables which all add their own flavour and texture. This recipe was loosely based on chicken chasseur but we used cider instead of wine. I love the french style of cooking it usually involves…
West Country Chicken Casserole Recipe
This is a perfect autumn dish as it is a light casserole. As I’m Devonian I love cider and it is great in one pot’s to create a light sauce, in the winter we tend to use red wine and beef for a more heartier option. I always think one pot dinner’s are really comforting…
Saturday Night Stir Fry – Chicken, Broccoli and Mushroom’s in an Oyster Sauce Gravy Recipe
I love a stir fry it’s, a great way to have a no carb dinner but is also very tasty. The chicken in this was so tender and I love the amount of sauce you get as some stir fry’s can be a bit dry and the sauce too rich. This was light, healthy and…
Healthy Chicken Caesar Style Salad Recipe
Why is it healthy? A few reasons, firstly this recipe uses rapeseed oil to make the mayo, secondly the chicken and croutons are baked in the oven and not fried and finally it is completely egg free which makes it much lighter. We really enjoyed this salad and I would make it again for sure….
Prosciutto Wrapped Pesto Chicken Breast on a Bed of Courgette’s and Tomatoes Recipe
It’s Monday so back to healthy dinners again. This one pot tray bake is easy but really tasty.

Sometimes simple is best and this was one of the first recipe’s Paulie made me and has…

So we are back from our holiday and although I enjoyed the food in the Seychelles I am also looking forward to eating our own lunches and dinners again. This recipe is a combination of 2 that I found online. I have never brined chicken before cooking and the blogger who described it made me…
Wednesday One Pot – Chicken, Chickpea, Preserved Lemon and Apricot Tagine with Harissa and Spices Recipe
The first thing I have to say is whilst this is cooking the smells from the kitchen are stunning, if licking air was possible my tongue would be out constantly. So, Paulie and I have treated ourselves to a new kitchen toy, a Le Creuset tagine. We make a lot of tagines and bought one…
Healthy No Carb Chicken, Chorizo, Chickpea and Kale One Pot Recipe
We are keeping our health kick going and last night was no exception we are trying to keep sugar and carbohydrates to a minimum at the moment. Whilst looking through chicken thigh recipes I stumbled upon Davina McCall’s (who I love) one pot recipe. I love the addition of the kale so you get added…
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner with Black Pudding, Spinach and a Vermouth Tarragon Sauce Recipe
Chicken is so versatile and has a comforting factor about it. You can make 1000’s of different recipes. We had been to the Weald Smokery and bought some gorgeous cheese, salmon and venison which they smoke in house, they also sell proper Lancashire black pudding and I think chicken and black pudding go really well…
