Arroz con Pollo

Posted in Main Dishes(For the High Cal Right Brain), tagged , , , on May 1, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

I have a complete inability to cook rice correctly.  I burn it, it’s crunchy, or completely mushy and gluey.  I usually Milli Vanilli my rice and buy the overpriced “boil in bag” kind or just buy it premade.  Main problem here? I LOVE Arroz con pollo and I consider it my perfect comfort food.  I [...]

Chicken Stew with Biscuits

Posted in Main Dishes(For the High Cal Right Brain), tagged , , on March 15, 2011 | 1 Comment »

I have been commonly known around both work and with friends for my strange celebrity crushes.  Mark Harmon, Miley Cyrus…the list goes on.  However, my newest crush, Arnold Vosloo, is for many different reasons.  Not only did he star in the Mummy movies, some of my absolute favs (with a soundtrack that helped get me into [...]

If you know me at all, you know Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.  This year, since Halloween was on a Sunday, I managed to find a way a way to have three different costumes, yet completely forget to eat.  One of the ingenuities of a crock pot is that it’s really easy to throw whatever you [...]

Fire Roasted Chicken

Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged , on August 1, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

There are three very important things that must be in every apartment of mine: honey mustard, good air conditioning (I do not look pretty when overheated) and cans of tomatoes. When I have no idea what to make for dinner, I find it’s pretty easy just to toss said tomatoes onto any form of meat [...]

Fig Jam Glazed Chicken Thighs

Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged , on May 13, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

I’m a fan of sweet and savory.  I’m a bigger fan of a dinner that you can put together with random stuff that is in your fridge.  You know that jam you have wayyy in the back of your fridge that you forgot about after you used it in your baked brie and/or bought it [...]

Drunken Cajun Chicken

If you don’t like chilis or beer, please walk away immediately, this post is not for you.  This is an example of what goodness cooking in liquor can bring to chicken.  It was juicy, flavorful, and fell apart like Isaiah Washington’s career. The only substitute for chicken this good on a Monday night would be the [...]

Moo Shu Pork, Sorta

I have a pretty high, undying love for Fresh Direct.  They have this sweet section with one click recipes, calorie counts and all.  Since I started a new job this week (new suits, two Blackberries, loss of all street cred…), I needed something quick and easy to make.  This recipe is delicious, easy, and fast.  The [...]

Slow Cooker Spiced Moroccan Chicken

Moroccan food is one of those things I was never really was introduced to until college.  There is this awesome restaurant called Nomad in the East Village that has some of the best tagines I’ve ever had.  The true pit of doom in Moroccan food is the couscous.  It, like rice, can be very high [...]

Chicken En Papillote, Metal Style

Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged , , , , on February 11, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

This dish is magic.  I’ve read a lot about cooking chicken in tin foil and throwing in a bunch of vegetables, but I couldn’t really find a recipe that I actually wanted to follow.  Therefore, I resulted to the lazy way out and just chopped up what I had in my fridge–and magic.  Incredibly healthy [...]

Ugly Stew

Posted in Main Dishes (For The Low Cal Left Brain), tagged , , on February 5, 2010 | 1 Comment »

As I forage further and further into the deep waters of lazy cooking that is my slow cooker, I am finding that more and more recipes are delicious yet, well, unpresentable.  This stew is delicious, easy, low calorie, yet has the fair qualities of a naked mole rat swimming in mud.  Ignore my pictures and try [...]
