Broiled Game Hens

Posted by CaribbeanQueen  

I am a big fan of brining my poultry for a few hours before cooking to ensure a moist bird. If you choose to do the same, there are a number of good brine recipes on this site. The prep time includes marinating time but not brine time. MORE»

Chicken Ala King

(2 reviews) Posted by CaribbeanQueen  

This is basically my grandma's recipe but I lightened it up a bit by using a few low-fat ingredients. If fat and calories are not an issue for you, use the 'real' stuff. Tastes great either way! This is also good with left-over turkey. MORE»

While I was at a hotel in Scottsdale, Arizona, I remember pestering a chef for this recipe. It's been so many trips ago, though, I can't remember what hotel I was at. Nevertheless, this salad is a nice twist on the usual Ceasar. MORE»

I did my best to pattern this recipe after a delicious dish that I had at a hotel in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The chef was very secretive but the waiter was more than willing to whisper a lot of tips in my ear! (It was he that got the big tip!)... MORE»
