Happy Hour in the galley today so I prepared some wings in advance in a wonderful spicy marinade to grill in time for cocktails. I just threw together an easy side salad, chilled some beverages and with just 30 minutes of grilling we were ready to dive in… CHILI LIME CHICKEN WINGS what you will need 1/2 medium onion, roughly chopped 2 Thai chilis, chopped […]
I’m doing the leftover thing today. …leftover stuffing. …leftover turkey. …leftover turkey and stuffing thrown together with a little gravy and a side of homemade cranberry sauce (my recipe here) made a very tasty evening meal. …and all made on the stove top. LEFTOVER STUFFING and TURKEY BAKE makes 4 servings (Yay! leftovers from the leftovers!) what you will need 4 cups stuffing 2 cups chopped […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
