I was feeling nostalgic for some of the dinners my mom would sometimes make in the 80’s so decided to make my own version of the chicken and rice bake most of us probably remember well. In my version of this dish, instead of water, I chose to use chardonnay and chicken broth. I mixed…

Refreshing Chimichurri Sauce for Salmon, Steak, and Chicken | Sunshine and Savory
Chimichurri is so herbaceous and refreshing! I made it last month to top flank steak and loved it so much, I could’ve eaten the leftover sauce with a spoon right out the bowl! We invited our daughter’s in-laws over to kick off the “unofficial start to summer” 2024. I made salmon, steak and chicken to…
Grilled Jalapeño Chicken with Mango, Blackberry and Jalapeño Sauce
I’ve had an idea on my mind for a couple of weeks that included using the juice from a couple jars of Hot and Sweet Jalapeños that I’ve been saving. I love these jalapeños on homemade pizza and decided to hang onto the jars with the juice that was left after using the jalapeños on…
Blueberry Balsamic Jalapeño Grilled Chicken
Two of Dennis’ brothers were here last weekend with their wives. We had a weekend packed with fun plans and restaurant reservations. For one of the nights I wanted to have a dinner party here with them. I came up with an idea for a marinade to grill chicken breasts in and they loved it!…
Citrus Chicken and Mango Habanero Mushroom Tacos
Yesterday was Cinco de Mayo and I was definitely going to be making Mexican food for dinner in celebration. I made sure to make my time spent in the kitchen as fun as possible while preparing our dinner. I usually have my favorite stations that I ask “Alexa” to play for me, but yesterday I…
Skin-on, Bone-in Cast Iron Skillet Chicken Breasts
When I saw skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts at the market the other day, I decided to grab a package. It seems I mostly cook skinless, boneless chicken breasts and more often than not, the thin sliced breasts. I was in the mood to change things up a bit and that’s what I did. Last night…
Mediterranean Angel Hair Pasta
It’s always great to find things in your pantry in which you can pull together a dinner in a quick and easy way. The dinner I made last night was just that type of dinner. I had everything I needed, but the chicken (thawed, at least) so when I was at Trader Joe’s grabbing a…
Balsamic Chicken and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Dinner Recipe
My husband, Dennis, works out every morning and eats healthy. He’s been a runner most of his life and has added the Sealfit (developed a former Navy Seal commander) workout to his morning routine. Dennis has been committed to this workout for the last several months and it shows. During the holiday season, on one…
Nut Crumb Chicken
A dear friend of mine had given me a package of Nut Crumbs as a hostess gift a couple weeks ago. I’ve been looking forward to trying these, so made chicken using them last night. They were so good! The package says they are a bread crumb alternative … the ingredients are pistachios, almonds, almond…
Sicilian Seasoned and Prosciutto Wrapped, Breaded Chicken Breasts
This may just be my favorite chicken recipe that I’ve come up with! I actually came up with this recipe while chatting with my sister on the phone. We were chatting and laughing, having a great time. I love the phone calls with my sister! It seems they mostly happen on a Sunday late afternoon,…
