Lemon Mustard Vinaigrette Marinated Chicken on a fabulous artisan bread takes the concept of chicken sandwich to new levels. Sooo good I made it twice in one week – and we aren’t big sandwich eaters!!! Use your favorite artisian bread – sourdough, multi-grain or any round bread that is crusty on the outside and soft in the middle. Ask the bakery to slice it for uniformity. When you seldom eat bread as we do – go for a really good one when you do put it on the menu! I chose an asiago cheese loaf that was excellent. We opted not to toast it, but a little denser bread, like the sourdough, would be wonderful buttered and tossed in a skillet until just barely golden.

Honey Mustard Pretzel Coated Baked chicken Tenders
Honey Mustard Pretzel Baked ChickenTenders is flavorful, tender and delicious! The pretzel coating provides a nice bit of crunch and color.

Whisk the dressing ingredients together and set aside at least half ... [Read More]
Wicked Good and Easy Pork Chops
These pork chops are wicked good! My sister in law, Deb, is from New England and was the first person I ever heard say something was wicked good. We tease about her accent – being from the Midwest and all, WE speak with the correct accent. When Wheels and I visited, Deb told us that they would be taking us to a seafood restaurant called Newick’s. I kept looking for Newark’s – compensating for her accent. Guess what? It really did say N E W I C K on the sign. Maybe part of the accent is in the hearer’s ear! These pork chops were a surprise, too. Surprise that I ever tried them because I do not like mustard. Not as in I hate it and it would never cross my lips, but I won’t go out of my way to eat something with mustard in it. Not only did I voluntarily make this – but it has ... [Read More]
