I ditched buying store bought pies a long time ago – they just taste ughhh. Once you’ve become accustomed to a good homemade pie (like these mini Chicken and Mushroom Pies), there is just no going back unfortunately. What do you say? Homemade food has a knack of setting that bar high! I often have to learn…

Best Butter Chicken Recipe Ever
Little did I know that when one reader asked for an easy Butter Chicken recipe, it would take me SEVEN tries to get it right (seven ain’t a lucky number for nothing). I tried 7 different versions until I settled on the recipe below. It was one of those things I just had to get right. Some…
Mango Chicken Curry
Hello strangers! I have a tasty chicken surprise for you today – Chicken Mango Curry. Never thought of mango + chicken as a pair? No? There is chemistry between them I tell you. Not glaringly obvious that they’re a great match but once you get to know them, you learn they have some kind of…
Spicy Rice and Chicken Strips
So here is the thing, sometimes we just need a recipe we can use with leftover chicken, right? Or there are those days where we just don’t feel like cooking chicken but really feel like eating chicken. Yes? Enter Rotisserie chicken. Enter last night leftover roast Chicken. This recipe is kinda like a homemade Nando’s…
Easy Thai Green Chicken Curry – Make it in 20 Minutes
Guys. Guys. Oooooh guys. My website. She was down for almost 48 hours last week. I am really hoping you didn’t even notice but if you did, phew, I am SO sorry. I have been snowed under doing all these technical things like creating new databases and installing CDN Networks and changing nameservers and uploading…
The Best Chicken Recipe Ever
We are moving house in 2 weeks time and my house is full of half-packed boxes and crates loaded with books and everywhere I look I see to-do lists that seem never-ending. They follow me everywhere. It is quite exasperating, but this morning my colleague walked in with freshly baked carrot muffins and then she miraculously…

Parmesan Chicken with Roast Garlic Tomato Mole
I’m so excited to present this Banting recipe to you from “The Real Meal Revolution” book by Tim Noakes and Co. I bought the book because my hubby was interested in the whole low-carb and high-fat way of eating. As an ex-dietician, I was totally opposed to anything but the traditional dietary guidelines…I mean of…
Chutney Chicken
This recipe was given to me by my beautiful mother. It’ so quick and you really don’t need many ingredients which is what I love about it. Also, if you don’t have cream, you can always use mayonnaise. In fact a lot of people use mayonnaise instead of cream when making a Chutney Chicken dish…
Curried Chicken Salad
I made this salad for my husband the other day for lunch. At first he turned his nose up at the thought of a salad with raisins and celery, well actually it was more like a “eeeuw” expression. Well, once he tasted it, he wolfed it down! And so did I! The combination of spicy…
Chicken and Sausage Paella
Never in a million years would I ever think to put sausage with chicken and make a paella. I always thought “Paella” was a seafood dish. In fact it is really a rice dish with seafood or chicken/meat or a mixture of both. Anyway, if you read my last post (strawberry and banana custard) you’ll…
Chicken and Corn Soup
I absolutely cannot believe that I have not shared this AMAZING recipe with you yet. I usually make this on cold days, when the soul needs a bit of love and warmth. It goes down so well! It really is the BEST chicken soup recipe I have ever tasted. And it’s quick and easy too,…
