Chicken Capons with Leek and Date Stuffing
Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free! I always find it ironic that some people think of chicken capons as an old-fashioned dish. Maybe it's time to rename it chicken roulade and celebrate how beautiful this chicken looks on the plate (especially when you serve it sliced, as pictured). The fact that it can be prepared ahead and frozen is just another bonus! If you aren't familiar with chicken capons, they are what kosher butchers call a deboned chicken leg, with the skin still attached. They are one of my favorite ways to serve chicken, and I am grateful to Los Angeles's … [Read more...]

Apple and Date Pargiyot
Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free!

It's a sauce chicken, which means I make it ahead of time and freeze it (yes! you read that right!), plus the sauce stands up to reheating on the hotplate. It's sweet, but not too sweet, it's soft and tender and just everything I look for in a chicken recipe! Feel free to sprinkle pomegranate seeds over the chicken for an extra symbolic element of this dish, but with apples, dates and carrots, you really can't go wrong here! Did you know that I share cooking demos, menu plans, … [Read more...]
