Easy Lemon-Pepper Chicken Wings

We love lemon-pepper wings, especially during football season. I got tired of spending so much money on them that I decided to whip up my own version of Wingstop's lemon-pepper chicken wings. The end result was an empty platter and pleased bellies.

Ricotta Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

Ricotta Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

A combo of sweet, fresh pineapple paired with a tangy ricotta cake makes for a deliciously decadent flavor combo. Don't use skim ricotta for this—it's too watery, and won't provide the flavor that makes this cake so good.

Chicken Marsala Fettuccine

Chicken Marsala Fettuccine

Chicken marsala over fettucine is a wonderfully rich Italian-American dish. Think chicken cutlets, mushrooms, and spinach cooked in a creamy Marsala wine sauce served over pasta—the ultimate comfort food.

Zucchini Rollatini

Zucchini Rollatini

These zucchini rollatini are ribbons of zucchini, filled with ricotta, mozzarella, and herbs, and baked in marinara sauce, a bit like lasagna roll-ups, but without the pasta.

Chinese Spareribs

Chinese Spareribs

These Chinese spareribs are tender, juicy, and delicious. I created this recipe after nothing caught my eye while searching for a good sparerib recipe. I cook the spareribs in a broiler tray in the oven, but they should be fine to cook on a grill.

Malaysian Beef Rendang

Malaysian Beef Rendang

This dish has a unique flavor, and by varying the amounts of sugar and chilies a whole range of effects can be produced. Serve over rice.
