Here’s one of my favorite shrimp recipes. It’s light & flavorful, a real crowd pleaser. I came up with this recipe years ago, when the kids were all younger & still home. I don’t remember who came up with the name, but we all agreed it was a fun one. It may be the only main dish recipe…

Planked Rosemary Pork Tenderloin With Dark Chocolate Balsamic and Orange
A few weeks ago, I went a little crazy at Oliva in Stuyvesant Plaza. So many oils & vinegars, so little time! One of the vinegars I’ve been itching to try is their Dark Chocolate Balsamic. My sister & brother-in-law were coming to dinner, so I made guinea pigs of them. There isn’t at all a discernible…
Plank Grilled Chipotle-Lime Chicken With Black Bean, Corn, & Avocado Salad
Beware: Flavor Explosion! You’re gonna love this; there’s tons of flavor, and anywhere from a little zip to a lot of heat – your choice! You just can’t beat a flavorful, healthy meal for which most of the prep can be done ahead. My son & future daughter-in-law (that’s the first time I’ve actually written…
BBQ Pulled Pork
I knew it was going to be a long day, and I wouldn’t have any energy left for cooking dinner. Little did I know it was also going to be a crummy day, so I was doubly glad to come home to the smell of dinner bubbling away in the slow cooker. Less than 15 minutes…
Tandoori Grilled Chicken with Mint Raita
Most of the time, I make things that don’t need much more prior planning than stopping by the market. I do have a few dishes, though, that are entirely worth planning ahead. This time, I “planned ahead” by accident. I usually marinate my Tandoori Grilled Chicken for just a few hours but decided to put it…
Planked Swordfish with Blueberry Jazz
On my way home from PT, I thought I’d stop to see if Gade had any dill plants left. Mine bolted, & I neglected to buy seed. While there, I found – yay! – they also had fresh sweet corn & blueberries! And some Oscar’s smoked cheese, but that’s for tomorrow. And, lucky me, Fin fishmonger is just a bit further…
Smoky Grilled Rosemary-Balsamic Chicken With Green Beans & Kamut
Sublime! The smoky flavors of the plank & cheese meld perfectly with the rosemary and balsamic. It does require a little advance prep, but it’s so worth it! Ten to fifteen minutes to whip up the marinade in the morning, and an hour to cook the kamut before dinner. While it’s cooking, there’s plenty…
Dilly-Lemon Planked Salmon
This is a magnificent way to cook salmon. It’s truly scrumptious, quick, easy, healthy, & clean-up is a snap. Not even a mess to scrape off the grill! The skin sticks to the plank, so it’s even easy to serve. You do need a little lead time to soak the plank, but after that the recipe…
