Nashville Hot Chicken
The hot chicken is a specialty fried chicken that is notable in Nashville and its surrounding areas. It differs from regular fried chicken due to the spices used in marinating and coating it, making it spicier in flavor while still retaining that crispy, fried coating. My recipe uses boneless chicken sandwiched between a freshly baked…

Oven Baked Salmon Steaks
Salmon is definitely one of my favorite tasting and versatile fishes to cook. They are filled with good fat and vitamins, and when fried in butter, the skin turns to crispy perfection. Instead of frying the salmon, this variation instead bakes it in foil, sealing in the juices and flavor, thus keeping the meat tender…

SCOTTADITO
Scottadito is a quick, grilled dinner fix. In Italian it means “burned fingers” due to you not being able to wait until the meat cools before eating it, and it is true. As simple as this meal is, the taste is a knockout and the meat is so tender and juicy that it just falls off…
