Roast Chicken Recipe

Why would a little old bird seem so intimidating to me? Maybe because the little clucker has inspired more failed recipe attempts for me than any other recipe I’ve tried to master.

Am I alone here?

Roast chicken is supposed to be easy. It’s not like you need new technology or fancy schmancy ingredients. It’s one of the basics and cooks have been roasting birds for, like, forever.

So what was my problem?

The stinking rose. Dracula’s repellant. A bad blind date’s breath mint. This is the beauty of garlic.

I don’t recall where I first read about a recipe calling for 40 cloves of garlic, but I do remember being somewhat shocked by the fact it was actually a recipe and not a misprint. It was when I first really started exercising my cooking chops and exploring things in the kitchen other than my mom’s spaghetti or our favorite Parmesan noodles. 40 cloves of garlic sounded so contrary, there must be a secret! I mean, I’m a real garlic lover, but 40 heads of garlic loving? That might be stretching things a bit.

But after making this dish over and over through the years, there’s really no mystery to it. Except for the fact that roasted garlic becomes soft, buttery and surprisingly sweet, making it a chicken dinner everyone will wonder why you don’t make more often.continue to the recipe… about 40 Cloves of Garlic Roast Chicken

Avocado Cream and Chicken Suiza Enchiladas Recipe

Avocado Cream Chicken Enchilada Suiza from FoodieCrush

Yesterday I sat on the deck at lunchtime and it hit me. Fall has arrived.

It’s only a few days past Labor Day and while I’m fondly reminiscing about Smudge and her summer hijinks, I am beyond thrilled to bid it adieu. Hello to cooler nighttime temps forcing the changing colors of the mountain leaves, sleeping at night without the hum of the swamp cooler and basking in the warm sunshine at lunchtime without melting into a puddle of goo.
