Chicken Sausage, Sweet Onion, & Fennel Pizza

Chicken sausage, sweet onion, and fennel pizza, with a winter orange salad.  My brother and sister-in-law highly recommended this pizza recipe.  It has fennel in it, and I HATE fennel.  I hate that black licorice flavor, it’s just awful.  But my brother assured me that it didn’t have that flavor, so I decided to try it.  He was right and because of this, it has opened my mind to trying some other recipes with fennel.  The pizza was not your typical pizza, but was a good mix of distinguished flavors.

Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca

Lemony chicken saltimbocca, couscous with portobello mushrooms, steamed asparagus, and a garden salad with feta and beets.  Pucker up buttercup!  When they say “lemony,” they mean it.  Great flavor, but go easy on the sauce.  It’s very lemony, and very potent.

Japanese White Stew

A popular Japanese dish called “white stew” which is basically a chicken and vegetable stew with a cream sauce, brown rice, and a salad with goat cheese and dried pomegranate seeds.  I got a break from cooking today when Aya whipped up this tasty dish.  It worked out great because it used up all the leftover vegetables from the week.

Chicken w/ Sage Browned Butter

Sauteed chicken with sage browned butter, mashed potatos, a side of steamed asparagus, and a fresh garden salad.  It turns out sage is good for more than smudging your house of evil spirits.  This was actually quick and easy.  And very flavorful.
