These little nibbles, packed with protein, make a great happy hour treat… …just drop each on a boston lettuce leaf and serve with your favourite tomato sauce. …next try them with some pasta, tomato sauce, …some grated Parm… …and a glass of wine, of course… …set the table for two… and you have a tasty and really easy supper. Use the same mixture, pack it into a baking tin and make a turkey quinoa meatlaof I made…
Our days are getting warmer Galley Peeps of the north, and I’ve officially put away my cold weather recipe mentality. There will still room for the occational cocooning comfort dish, but my almost-ready-for-flip-flops-boating-and-barbecuing-self is salivating for something to throw on the grill. CHICKEN ZUCCHINI CORN BURGERS makes 6 burgers 1 lb ground chicken 1 cup grated zucchini 1/2 cup corn niblets 1/2 red pepper, finely chopped 3 green onion, finely sliced 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 egg 1/2 cup panko…
Change in weather.. change in attitude… I think it may be safe to say spring has arrived, so I’m spending my time this week putting together some easy healthy salad-y type meals for us all to enjoy. I had a leftover grilled chicken breast so threw together this main dish salad for supper tonight. CHICKEN AVOCADO MANGO SALAD for your Lime Dressing… 2 tbsp fresh lime juice 2 tbsp grapeseed or other neutral flavour oil 2 tsp fish sauce 2…
Technically this bird was cooked today in my oven, indoors, in the warmth of our land galley, but honestly it’s – 40 ° today with the wind chill factor and no matter how you slice it – 40 ° is the same in Celsius and Fahrenheit. But the basic principal still applies for barbecue roasting. The dijon rub can also be used on chicken pieces. Just place a piece of lemon on piece of foil, top with some fresh herbs…
Dreaming of grilling but these all-too-frequent sub-zero days beg for some tasty warming soup. By the time we get into some warmer weather I’m going to have such a great stash of soup recipes. Here’s another good one for you… a little Italian seasoning, lots of fresh garlic to fight those seasonal demons, pasta, some veggies, and a hint of lemon… CHICKEN ORZO SOUP 1 tbsp olive oil 5 cloves garlic, smashed and minced 1 small onion, chopped 6 good-sized…
Love everything Asian but I try to avoid anything deep fried. And these easy and not deep-fried little bites of chicken were perfect all smothered in a sticky honey sesame sauce. STICKY HONEY SESAME CHICKEN 1 lb boneless chicken cut into 1″ pieces 2 garlic cloves, minced 2-3 tbsp oil (coconut oil works really well) toasted sesame seeds to garnish for batter 1/2 cup flour 1/4 cup corn starch 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 egg white 1/2 cup water 1…
Cooking poultry parts instead of the whole bird just makes so much sense to me. It takes much less time to prepare and cook which means a lot less stress for this Galley Kat. …plus on the boat it would be logistically impossible. According to the Bitten Word a big trend in Thanksgiving turkey this year is towards exotic global flavours so thought I would give our little feast a North African spin. MOROCCAN TURKEY BREAST 2 tsp ground cumin…
When I came across this recipe from Jamie Oliver I thought it was a touch bizarre… chicken cooked in milk with lemon? but it was Jamie Oliver after all… …of my… the sauce… and the juicy meat!!! CHICKEN in MILK 4-6 servings (modified for a 2 quart pressure cooker) 8 chicken thighs oil for browning 6-10 garlic cloves *1 cup preserved lemons, roughly chopped (see Galley Kat Notes below) 1 handful fresh tarragon sea salt and pepper 1 cinnamon…
We took the barbecue off the boat the other day in preparation for haulout next week which means our meals will be prepared totally à la Galley Kat. With Indian Summer gone and temperatures dropping, comfort food has become the order of the day… …some pasta of course… …a few chopped veggies… …sautéd, seasoned and savoury… …all ooy gooy and cheesy… ONE POT CHICKEN PASTA CASSEROLE Ingredients 4 cups cooked pasta (I used large egg noodles) 3 tbsp butter 1…
This is just a fancy way of saying I cooked a duck breast and made a really tasty sauce by simmering blackberry liqueur, some wine and fresh figs… SEARED DUCK BREAST with CASSIS WINE REDUCTION and FIGS 1 duck breast 10-12 freash basil leaves 2 tbsp cassis sea salt & pepper 4-6 fresh figs, cut in half 2 tbsp butter 1/4 cup dry red wine 1/4 cup cassis 1/4 cup chicken stock Make diagonal cuts in skin side of duck….
