Chicken recipes

Cuban-style picadillo turkey stuffing with ground beef, rice, olives, raisins, capers, almonds, and dry sherry. A Latin twist on traditional holiday stuffing.

Turkey and rocket salad with macadamias tosses sliced turkey in a toasted macadamia-garlic paste dressing, served over peppery greens with chopped nuts and chives. A clever leftover-turkey makeover.

Chinese steamed translucent dumplings (fun gor) filled with shrimp, ground pork, dried mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and water chestnuts in a wheat starch wrapper.

First time I've paired pork chops with dried fruit. During braising the apricots and prunes plumped up and added a nice mellow fruitiness which paired with the tender pork perfectly.

Delicate crepes filled with poached scallops and scrod in a curried cream sauce with chutney, carrots, and peas. Folded into triangles and baked until warm. French technique meets Indian spice in every bite.

Grilled satay skewers marinated in soy, curry, and lime with a creamy coconut peanut dipping sauce. Works with chicken, beef, or pork for appetizers or a full meal.

Hearty Creole gumbo pot loaded with shrimp, eggplant, okra, corn, and rice in a smoky paprika-tomato broth. One pot, one hour, six happy bowls.

Jamaican jerk rub paste with four hot chili peppers, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and thyme. A fiery wet rub with real Caribbean heat. Mix, rub, and grill for authentic jerk flavor.

Quick black bean chili with honey-roasted ham, sweet corn, broccoli, and tomato in a cumin-chili broth. Serve over rice with crusty sourdough on the side. Ready in 45 minutes.

My favorite tortellini soup recipe. It's quick and easy to fix on a busy night and full of tasty, healthy ingredients. Make it Italian by adding some Italian seasoning and parmesan cheese rind while cooking.

Butterflied leg of lamb marinated 12 hours in honey, orange juice, Pinot Noir, soy sauce, and garlic, then grilled until pink inside. Bold, sweet-savory marinade.
