Sweet and Spicy Chicken and Broccoli Bowl Recipe Sweet, tangy, and spicy chicken served over jasmine rice with roasted coconut broccoli.

Posted Jan 27, 2019 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Patty and I have been into a lot of ‘bowl’ type dinners lately. Usually a mix of chicken or beef with veggies, fresh herbs, and something citrusy over rice or quinoa. It’s a complete meal with lots of fresh flavors—and seems to be a trendy entree these days. Sure, you could eat a plate of…

Creamy Pasta Shells with Sausage Recipe Simple cream-based pasta sauce prepared with sweet and spicy Italian sausage and shells.

Posted Jan 22, 2019 · by Shawn Dinner ·

We are currently going through a mini ‘cold front’ here in New England. A few days of bone-chilling single digit weather. I guess that’s the price I’m more than willing to pay for heading to the Super Bowl 3 straight years in a row. On cold winter nights like this, what’s better than a creamy…

Sirloin Steak with Chimichurri Sauce Recipe Steaks topped with chimichurri—an herb-based sauce made with fresh parsley, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, and spices

Posted Jan 10, 2019 · by Shawn Dinner ·

I’ve come full circle on my cast iron steak searing journey. This was my first time actually cooking a sirloin or a New York strip steak using the pan searing and oven finish method, or the “swagger” method if you’ve been following along. In that past I’ve just thrown them on the grill (we don’t…

Posted Jan 1, 2019 · by Shawn Sides ·

Happy New Year! I’d like to kick off 2019 with the most random recipe possible. Mashed potatoes. Well…I guess they’re not entirely random. Mashed potatoes are the ultimate celebration side.

Sesame Ginger Glazed Salmon in Foil Recipe Baked salmon topped with a sweet ginger glaze made with fresh ginger, honey, lime juice, and a pinch of sriracha.

Posted Nov 30, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Sesame ginger glazed salmon is a huge win for Asian inspired salmon. We eat salmon at least once a week. It’s our favorite fish because it’s versatile, flavorful, and good for you. We have a few simple go-to recipes, however recently I’ve been experimenting with more diverse ingredients. This recipe is a spin-off of my…

Pesto Gnocchi with Shrimp Recipe A simple weeknight recipe using premade gnocchi and homemade pesto.

Posted Nov 15, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Pesto gnocchi with shrimp (pronounced nyawk-kee — I always want to say it phonetically), was of course inspired by Italy. Duh, you’re probably thinking, however the first time I experienced gnocchi and pesto together was IN Italy. Sure I’ve had pesto 1,000 times…and who doesn’t love a hearty dish of gnocchi? Such a simple dish, but so…

Chicken Parmesan Calzone Recipe My take on a classic chicken parmesan calzone filled with crispy chicken, parmesan, and mozzarella cheeses

Posted Nov 11, 2018 · by Shawn Appetizers ·

The chicken parmesan calzone made its mark on my life in college. I went to Saint Anselm College in Manchester, NH. Probably unbeknownst to anyone reading this outside of New England. That aside, any student or alumni will be able to speak of their legendary calzones. I’m not sure I can articulate what makes them…

Baked Chicken Chimichangas Recipe My absolute favorite easy weeknight Tex Mex inspired dinner.

Posted Oct 24, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Baked chicken chimichangas have long been my go-to weeknight Tex Mex entree. Honestly, I can’t say I’ve ever actually made it on the weekend. No idea why, it’s too good to resist. I’ve been making this recipe for a good six years and I can’t tell you why I haven’t shared it sooner. Traditionally, chimichangas…

Lemon Butter Scallops Over Parmesan Risotto Recipe Simple lemon butter scallops served over delicious Parmesan risotto.

Posted Oct 22, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Seared scallops over risotto has become one of our new favorite fancy weeknight meals. It’s a tad more involved than your typical 20 minute dinner because the risotto requires a little extra attention, however you should NOT be intimidated. It’s simple to make, you just have to pay attention to what you’re doing. No leaving…

Posted Sep 13, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Rigatoni with heirloom tomatoes, breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese is exactly what it sounds like. A simple, pasta-focused dish that comes together by digging deep into your refrigerator in hopes you can somehow pull a miracle dinner together when you don’t want to go to the grocery story on Sunday night.

Beer Battered Fish Recipe (Cod or Haddock) Simple and delicious beer battered cod or haddock made with a juicy, New England Style IPA.

Posted Aug 13, 2018 · by Shawn Lunch ·

Growing up in New England, fried fish has always been an absolute staple. Being such a short drive from Maine, Coastal New Hampshire, and Boston has spoiled me. I have fond childhood memories of grabbing lunch at some of the most unassuming beach restaurants in Rye, NH, with some of the freshest fried fish platters I’ve…

It’s a beautiful rainy day here on day 2 of our beach vacation in Avon, North Carolina. The forecast is looking a little shaky for the rest of the week, but hopefully some nice weather pass through. Things don’t always go as expected, but you have to make the most of it. I’m currently stuck…

Hard to believe it’s been one year since our two week vacation across Italy. It was an out of this world experience full of some of the most amazing cuisine and culture I’ll probably ever experience.

Posted May 30, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

It’s a hot summer evening and let’s face it, no one feels like cooking indoors. In fact, it’s sacrilegious to not spend as much time outside as possible. Grilling pizza is probably not something people even consider, however it’s been a staple in our family for years! And I guarantee it will be some of…

Spicy Squid Ink Pasta with Mussels Recipe Mussels prepared in a spicy arrabiata sauce over squid ink spaghetti.

Posted May 10, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Squid ink pasta with mussels is essentially mussels arrabiata over ‘black’ squid ink pasta. Yes, you heard me correctly, pasta made with actual squid ink, dying it black. Does it taste any different? I’ll let you be the judge of that. Some say it’s stronger than traditional pasta, but honestly I think it’s the novelty of…

Perfect Porterhouse Steak for Two Recipe A massive pan-seared porterhouse steak, prepared with the swagger method, perfect for 2-3 people.

Posted Apr 20, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

The infamous pan-seared porterhouse steak. It’s surely the king of all things beef. The porterhouse is a large cut of beef that contains both the New York strip (sirloin) and filet mignon cut (tenderloin), separated by a bone. It’s the best of both worlds and the ultimate steak for sharing (or not). This recipe all…

Coconut Crusted Cod Recipe Crispy baked coconut cod breaded with shredded coconut and panko crumbs.

Posted Jan 13, 2018 · by Shawn Dinner ·

Patty and I never really eat cod (unless it’s fried). Why? I’ve always found it tasteless and boring. It’s a solid white fish and very easy to prepare, but I personally think it needs a lot of help in the flavor department to crack our weeknight lineup. It’s a fish we try to incorporate into…

Introducing butternut squash pizza, possibly the weirdest combo of toppings for pizza, but outrageously good.

Turkey stuffed bell peppers are one of my favorite healthier, low carb Mexican fiestas.
