Perhaps this dish should not be called tagine, because I didn’t use one to cook this. Neither did I use preserve lemon traditionally. However, I’m sure it tasted as good. Ingredients (serves 4 to 6): 8 chicken thighs, skin on Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 1 tablespoon ground coriander 1 tablespoon ground [...]

Indian Butter Chicken
We eat a lot of chicken in the house. Thighs, drumsticks, back legs, wings, whole chicken……Besides it’s easy and versatile to make, it’s also the only food Ethan won’t throw a drama over the dinner table most of the time. And so I have to keep up with varieties in terms of cooking it. I [...]

Oven Fried Chicken
This is what a clean freak who loves to cook like me would do: cook delicious food but try to minimize the effort of cleaning the kitchen aftermath. Also, you would make this dish if you have a husband like mine who will open you a can of chicken soup when you crave for fried [...]
This pregnancy is like a roller-coaster trip in food tastes. It was not like this with Ethan, I could eat anything, I could even drain down 2 bowls of fishy fish soup even though I am not a fish person. But this time, over these first few months, ANY SECOND I’m either throwing up or [...]

Chicken Pot Pie
For any day of the following week, if you come across with a problem about not knowing what to make for dinner, I highly recommend you this chicken pot pie. My very first improvised chicken pot pie is not about the pie itself. Weird, huh?! Yes, cause it’s all about the filling which was completely-beyond-my-expectation [...]

Chicken Marbella
Getting back to work after a full year of maternity leave might not be easy for most of the new moms like me. Yes, I heard you, non-Canadian moms, sometimes life is just so unfair at the other side of the planet. Besides what I had anticipated before about my returning to the office, I [...]

Simple Roast Chicken
I totally support Jamie Oliver’s “Ministry of Food”. In case you haven’t heard about this campaign, this is basically about inspiring people who used to cook or have never cooked before to get into their kitchens and make simple and delicious food from scratch. Once you’ve mastered a recipe, you’d teach it to two more [...]

Chicken Stew
I don’t have much to say about this dish, because it’s super dumb-free, but really tasty! This is actually one of my inventions. Yes, I heard you, “Really? Such an easy recipe, you call it an invention?” Well, honestly, I didn’t plan to post it until my sister-in-law, who’s a huge fan of this dish, [...]

Broiled Buffalo Wings
I don’t have a deep fryer at home. The thought of buying one have come across my mind occasionally for the past few years, especially the moment when I saw it’s being used on Food Network. It doesn’t take up much space, it has a sleek design, the non-stick parts make cleanup a breeze. And [...]

Chicken Paella
I was advised not to eat seafood when I was pregnant and breastfeeding because baby would be allergic to it. I still don’t figure out the reason. Isn’t it supposed to be that the more you eat that food, the easier your baby gets used to it? Anyway, I wasn’t dare to take risk. Afterall [...]
