When we lived in Massachusetts we got spoiled by the easy access to fresh, high-quality fish. After all, we lived in one of the busiest fishing ports in the country! But just because we live inland now doesn’t mean that we can’t still satisfy our craving for delicious seafood. Whether you have access to fish fresh off the dock or fillets from your grocer’s freezer section, this recipe produces mouthwatering results in a matter of minutes. Just remember that if your fish is frozen, you’ll need to remove it from any vacuum-sealed packaging before you defrost it. It can be thawed on a plate in the fridge overnight or in a bowl of cool water. If you use the latter method, just be sure to keep an eye on it so it isn’t out too long before cooking.

Spatchcock Chicken with Tomatoes and White Wine Sauce [RECIPE]

One of my favorite ways to prepare poultry of late is to spatchcock it, which means we remove the bird’s backbone and roast it flattened out in a large cast iron skillet. It cuts the time from oven to table in half (at least), and cooks the bird much more thoroughly. It also delivers a juicy, succulent chicken instead of the tough, dry ones traditional roasting methods sometimes create. The addition of chardonnay and tomatoes adds a new dimension to the flavor profile that is simply yummy. Continue reading “Spatchcock Chicken with Tomatoes and White Wine Sauce [RECIPE]”

Moroccan Pork Loin with Blackberry Glaze [RECIPE]

Pork tenderloin is the leanest part of the pig, and therefore one of my favorite cuts to serve my family since we’re watching our fat intake. On its own, however, the meat doesn’t have a lot of flavor, so the seasonings used in this recipe really give it the burst of flavor it needs. The best part about this dish is that it tastes like you worked on it for hours, yet it’s one of the simplest stove-to-table suppers around. Enjoy!
