Cooking Technique

Herb Garden Marinade for Lamb

I love the taste of fresh herbs with lamb. Use this marinade recipe as a guide, or adjust to your own tastes. Love mint? Add more. Hate oregano? Leave it out and add more of the other herbs. There is enough marinade for about 3 pounds of lamb chops. Double or triple it for a leg of lamb roast.

Creamy Beef and Bow Tie Pasta

This creamy beef and bow tie pasta is a fun take on beef Stroganoff using ground beef instead of steak chunks. It’s an easy one-pot weeknight meal, and a great way to jazz up some ground beef.

Main Course

Chicken Tortilla Soup

My chicken tortilla soup is not a fast recipe, but it is one of the greatest chicken soup experiences known to man. The smoky, spicy, slowly simmered tomato chicken broth is made from scratch, and the soup is topped with all your favorite garnishes: toasted tortilla strips, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, lime, and crumbled Mexican cheese.

Main Course

Classic Italian Pastina Soup

This classic pastina soup with tender chunks of chicken, tiny Italian pastina pasta, carrots, and parsley has all the rich flavors you need in a comforting bowl of homemade soup.

Main Course

Deviled Shrimp Ragu

This subtly sweet, fairly fiery shrimp ragu served over my creamy corn custard would make a fantastic first course for any dinner, and it's certainly rich enough to be enjoyed as a entree. You can also pour this over rice or noodles with complete confidence.

Greek Smashed Pita

This Greek smashed pita is like a cross between a beloved smashburger and a delicious gyros. Greek-seasoned ground sirloin, topped with salad and tzatziki, are folded inside a lightly toasted pita for a savory handheld lunch.
