Orange Chicken
Forty-two days ago I intentionally started eating to feel good. My goal? To feel full of energy, focus and balanced. As a beautifully wonderful and welcome side effect, I also felt a lightness—both physically and emotionally—that comes when you realize your mind is clear, your body is working with you (not against you) and you’re finally at peace with yourself.
Buffalo Chicken Fingers
Hot wings have certainly earned their spot as the ultimate Super Bowl appetizer. The clear winner? The Buffalo route. of course! For this recipe, I reinvented big Buffalo wing flavor by baking spicy chicken into tender, juicy strips.
Grilled Peach BBQ Chicken Wings with Jammy Dipping Sauce
I cook these wings low and slow so I get perfectly crispy skin and moist, tender chicken. In the winter, I swap one cup fresh pineapple chunks for the peaches, then bake the wings in a 400ºF oven for about 35 minutes.
Sticky Chicken Wings with Blue Cheese Dip
Buckets of chicken wings later, I still like my wings extra sticky and served with a cooling, creamy blue cheese dip. If you’re dairy-free, making the dip can be tricky—and completely possible. I’ve included dairy-free ingredient swaps below.
Ginger Chicken-Basmati Meatball Soup
When you think of weeknight, 30-minute chicken soup recipes, the first thought that probably comes to mind is rotisserie chicken must be the shortcut. Instead, my fast-and-easy version calls for ground chicken. Let me explain.
Sesame Chicken-Citrus Salad
The flavors in this salad are wonderfully refreshing and complex, the raw vegetables deliver great crunch and the dressing is full of umami—the fifth taste along with salty, sweet, sour, and bitter.
Paleo Chicken Tikka Masala
To make this generously-spiced recipe a fast and easy weeknight one-pot meal, I par-cook the chicken by pan-searing until just golden, then I stir it right into the creamy spiced tomato masala sauce instead of marinating the chicken overnight in yogurt, then grilling or roasting the next day.
Gluten-Free Chicken Pot Pie
I’ve been busy behind the scenes building a new home for my gluten-free recipes—and life. So much has changed (more on that later) since I was Cooking for Isaiah before he went off to college. It made sense to me to start with a family favorite—comforting, calming Chicken Potpie.
