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...]

If you've been grocery shopping lately, I'm sure you've noticed how high meat prices have gotten lately. So when I'm cooking for shabbos, I try to shop the meat sales. Another thing I do is to is look for ways to elevate ground beef into a Shabbos-worthy dish. And this French Onion Meatballs and Gnocchi dish is exactly that!

Maple Pulled Chicken with Cornbread Waffles
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! Waffles are one of my top 3 foods (along with dumplings and popcorn) and if you've only been enjoying waffles in a sweet format, you're missing on some of the best food you could be eating. Chicken and waffles is a famous southern dish, but my version swaps the fried chicken for maple pulled chicken (lighter and easier to prepare), swaps the big sweet waffles for mini cornbread waffles (prettier presentation!) and tops it with just the right toppings for tanginess and crunch! If you're looking for a dish that will impress … [Read more...]
