This recipe is sponsored by DeLallo. “Primavera” (pronounced “pree-muh-VERH-ah”) means “spring” in Italian. “Pasta primavera” refers to a pasta made “spring style”: filled with spring vegetables. Asparagus, peas, carrots, and broccoli are three popular spring vegetables used to make pasta primavera, but you can easily swap them with the season. Here in Wisconsin where I live, asparagus is finally making its long-awaited appearance (bring on the Asparagus Soup!), so I have been cooking with it a lot....

This pesto chicken was inspired by the Chicken Piccata Pasta that I shared here on my blog a short while ago and incorporated the full-bodied, velvety sauce that I used in making my Salmon Piccata. I wanted to come up with a chicken dish that was just as simple to make as a piccata, but with a slightly different flavor profile. As much as I now like chicken piccata, it gets old after a while and you want something new....

It might have cookie dough in the name, but I can assure you that this cookie is warm, chewy, and totally irresistible. When it arrives in that skillet, it’s all I can do to not dig in right away. I’ve had one too many burned tongue experiences due to my impatience! They’ve stuck with calling this cookie dough because technically, it’s hot cookie dough served in a skillet with ice cream....

Since starting a food blog, I’ve learned that every ingredient, every recipe category, and even every lima bean (April 20th) has its own “holiday.” Honestly, unless it’s a day when I’m a) freakishly organized, b) feeling kitschy, and c) totally obsessed with whatever food is “on holiday,” I tend to miss most of these events. Grilled cheese is an exception for a few reasons: One. We eat it all the time, holiday or not....

… you celebrate by making refreshing and delicious Raspberry Sorbet Bellini! Even though we had a pretty mild winter here in New York – with the exception of one really bad snowstorm and some cold days here and there – I’m always excited when the flowers start to bloom and I start noticing things like the smell of fresh air and the warmth from the sun. It is that time of the year, where my Brazilian self comes out of hibernation, and decides to join the world in all the fun outdoorsy activities, like picnics, walks in the park/beach, outdoor movie screenings and, of course, Sunday brunches!...

Roasted red potatoes anyone? I used to roast them on a baking sheet but my recent cast iron pan addiction led me to substituting a baking sheet for a cast iron workhorse. Let me tell you, that made a big difference. I got better crispiness, better caramelization and better flavor overall. But wait, it gets better. You can heat the pan on the stove before putting it in the oven, cutting down on roasting time by about a quarter....

Pick up a couple salmon fillets on your way home from work today, don your favorite frilly apron (yes men, you too), and prepare to wow yourself with your own culinary savoir faire. This hearty salmon feels ultra chic in that special, instantaneous way that adding a French word or phrase onto just about anything automatically does. Say “ooooh la la” out loud right now…See what I mean? In reality all meuniere (pronounced “muhn-yair”) refers to is the preparation of the fish, which is little more than a flour dredge, a quick sauté in butter, and a hit of lemon and parsley....

I first saw pulled chicken sandwiches in a spiral bound cookbook that we received at school. Its pages were printed on a home computer. The “book” is long since lost, but I can remember a few things about it: It has fun cartoon drawings, including a very friendly chicken in a chef’s hat that was on this chicken sandwiches’ page.The recipes were old fashioned—the kind of thing you’d find in a cookbook written in Ohio in the 1950s....

If you are the person in your household who tries to get to the sheet pan of roasted Brussels sprouts first to snag the darkest, crispiest ones before anyone else can get to them, then smashed Brussels sprouts are the side dish for you. (You’ll also adore these crispy Brussels Sprouts Chips.) The “smashed” technique we’re deploying here is not new. I borrowed it from smashed potatoes, which are a steakhouse favorite and outrageously delicious, even if like me, you aren’t usually a white potato fan....
