Crockpot Chicken a l’Orange
Here’s one you must try, provided you have a slow cooker. I’ve gone crazy with my crock-pot this past week, and this recipe—along with a gazillion other ones—turned out to be a real keeper. Crazy simple, hardly any prepping involved, but so tasty you’ll want to lick the plate clean. The scent alone had me drooling all day long. It’s a recipe that came with the crock-pot … but since I…
Country Club Chicken
It wasn’t until a friend of mine casually asked me what I had put into the chicken casserole that made it so creamy without making it greasy, that it dawned on me this is more an American than a European way of cooking. Using a concentrated soup as the basis of your casserole—turning it into a sauce like that—isn’t really common in Dutch cooking. Actually, it’s really uncommon. I love it,…
Asian Chicken Strips
I desperately wanted to do something: cook, shoot a posting, do anything but lie on the couch or in bed with my foot propped up a stack of pillows feeling sorry for myself.

Then it dawned on me: I had to try to combine the chicken with a more low-key…
Jamaican Jerk Chicken
I’m a spicy food kinda gal. Having said that, I must say that Jerk Chicken really isn’t as crazy hot as you’d expect it to be with all these peppers. Couldn’t get my hands on a Scotch Bonnet so I replaced it with a Madame Jeanette, which is very close to Habanero but more readily available to me. Jerk chicken is a fiery dish that will make your mouth tingle,…
Pesto Butter Chicken
My basil plants went crazy after I put them in hydro pots! I kept picking them, but the leaves grew right back on leaving me with a continuous amount of fresh basil. Not a bad deal for two €2,- plants that I bought a few months ago. I’m not complaining. “Pesto!“, I thought. Okay, so I admit that was not the most exciting or brilliant plan of them all, but…
