Jalapeno chicken wing sauce recipe

Here is another delicious recipe for bone-in or boneless chicken wings, jalapeno wing sauce. This wing sauce has a unique flavor from the jalapeno pepper sauce. I like to prepare this sauce to go on boneless chicken wings and it is great to serve for Super Bowl parties. The sauce is prepared on the stovetop and is a combination of ketchup, brown sugar, jalapeno pepper sauce, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. This sauce is easy to prepare and only requires combining all of the ingredients in a saucepan and simmering for a few minutes. Enjoy. If you do not have jalapenos then you can try some of the jalapeno substitutes mentioned here.

Sweet Thai wing sauce recipe

Here is a recipe for a sweet Thai wing sauce. This wing sauce has both the flavors of sweet and sour and tastes absolutely amazing. You can use this sauce on either bone-in or boneless chicken wings. It is also great to dip chicken nuggets in. The sauce gets a lot of its flavor from Thai chili sauce and ingredients such as rice vinegar, peanut butter, and ginger. The fresh cilantro that is mixed into the sauce when it is done cooking really adds a nice flavor. The sauce is fully prepared on the stovetop and can be served immediately. If you need a good wing breading recipe, you can use the breading from my post on How to Make Boneless Chicken Wings. This is a great recipe to prepare for the upcoming Super Bowl. Enjoy.

Parmesan ranch chicken bites recipe

These parmesan ranch chicken bites make a great appetizer or dinner. These chicken bites are coated with a breadcrumb, dry ranch dressing and parmesan cheese mixture. The chicken bites are a little work to prepare but the result is well worth it. The chicken is first rolled in flour, then dipped in egg and then rolled in a breadcrumb mixture.

Crunchy pretzel chicken bites on black plate

Pretzel chicken bites recipe

These pretzel chicken bites make a great appetizer or dinner. The chicken is cut into small chunks and then coated first in flour, then dipped in egg and then rolled in crushed pretzels. The best part about this recipe, the chicken is baked and not fried! The pretzels may be a little difficult to crush. A good option would be to crush them with a rolling pin. You can also use a food processor or blender to break them up into fine chunks. I used the blender to crush them but I made sure not to blend too much because I wanted some pieces of pretzel left and not just fine crumbs. These chicken bites go great served with honey-mustard dipping sauce. Enjoy.

Almond thumbprint cookies recipe

These almond thumbprint cookies are great to prepare for Christmas! There are three parts to this recipe- the dough, the filling, and the glaze. You will want to plan ahead for this recipe because the dough needs to be chilled for at least 4 hours before preparing the cookies for baking. You can prepare the dough the night before and make the cookies in the morning if you wish. The filling is simply raspberry jam but you can use other flavors as well—I used raspberry, apricot, and blackberry. The glaze is a combination of confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla or almond extract. Enjoy.

These BBQ cheddar stuffed meatballs are a very delicious dinner to prepare. These meatballs use ingredients such as ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk onion, and garlic. The meat mixture is formed and then cubes of cheddar cheese are pressed into the center of the meatballs. Try and form the meat mixture around the cheese chunks as well as possible to avoid leaks. Chances are some of the cheese will leak out but you don’t want it all too. These meatballs are fully cooked in the oven, no pan-frying is required. The BBQ sauce is homemade and uses common ingredients which you may already have on hand. I like to serve these meatballs with macaroni and cheese. Enjoy.

Sausage and herb stuffing recipe

If you are looking for a delicious stuffing recipe for the holidays, this one is perfect. I prepared this sausage and herb stuffing for Thanksgiving this year and it was a big hit. What makes this stuffing so amazing is the use of fresh herbs such as sage, rosemary and parsley and the use of sweet Italian sausage. This recipe uses pre-made stuffing cubes to help save time and makes this dish easy to prepare. Onions, garlic, and celery are sautéed in butter and then added to the bread cubes along with various ingredients. The sausage is cooked in the same skillet as the celery and onion mixture. Once the ingredients are mixed with the stuffing cubes, the dish is placed into the oven and baked until golden brown on top. The top of the casserole should be brown and crunchy. Enjoy.

Kfc coleslaw recipe

One of the best side dishes at KFC is their coleslaw. With this recipe, you can make your own KFC coleslaw right at home. Not only is this a great copycat recipe but it is perhaps one of the better coleslaws that I have tasted. A lot of the flavor comes from white vinegar, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and buttermilk. For the carrots, I used a cheese grater to shred them but you could also use a knife and slice them into very thin strips. For the best results, you will want to allow the coleslaw to be refrigerated for several hours or overnight to allow the flavor to develop before serving. This coleslaw makes a great side-dish. Enjoy.

Chances are you already have almost all of the spice ingredients on hand to prepare this recipe.

The Alabama smokehouse burger consists of a grilled seasoning pork patty, provolone cheese, bacon, Alabama white barbecue sauce, and iceberg lettuce.

Mozzarella stuffed meatballs served over spaghetti with marinara

Mozzarella stuffed meatballs recipe

Meatballs get even better when they are stuffed with mozzarella cheese. The meatballs are cooked in the slow cooker right in the spaghetti sauce. You can use either your favorite brand of sauce or even make your own. The meatballs use two different types of meat—spicy Italian sausage and ground beef. I really like the flavor that the Italian sausage adds to this recipe. Try to form the ground beef mixture as well as you can around the cheese cubes so that it does not leak out while cooking. However, it is normal for some of the cheese to come out. I like to serve these meatballs with spaghetti noodles. Enjoy.

Pumpkin French toast recipe

Pumpkin French toast makes a great breakfast for the colder months and the holidays. This is very similar to classic French toast but uses ingredients such as pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie seasoning to make the French toast taste like a pumpkin pie! I like to use Texas toast for this recipe but you could use sliced French bread as well. You can use either a nonstick skillet or a griddle for this recipe. I prefer a griddle because I can cook several pieces of the toast at ounce. Once the French toast is cooked I like to top it off with a little maple syrup and whipped cream. Enjoy.

Doritos chicken bites recipe

The use of Doritos chips makes a great breading for chicken bites. The Doritos chips are put into a food processor and blended until they are very fine crumbs.

Apple cider glazed pork chops recipe

apple glazed pork chops
There are several different ways to prepare pork chops on the grill but a delicious apple cider glaze is always a good option. These pork chops on bone-in but you can also use boneless if you would prefer. The pork chops are first rubbed with a spice mixture, placed onto the grill and brushed with an apple cider glaze. The apple cider glaze is nothing more than a simple combination of apple cider, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, crushed red pepper flakes, and salt. These pork chops are perfect for summer cookouts. I like to serve this recipe with a cold salad on the side. Enjoy.

Breaded chicken topped with melted cheese and bacon

Breaded chicken with bacon recipe

Bacon is always a great topping for many dishes. This breaded chicken with bacon consists of fried chicken coated with breadcrumbs and topped off with bacon and cheese. The chicken is first coated with flour, then dipped in egg and then rolled in a breadcrumb and parmesan cheese mixture. The chicken is first fired in the pan until browned and then baked in the oven to finish the cooking process. If you want a save a little time, you can use pre-cooked bacon for this recipe and crumble it. You may need less of the flour and breadcrumb mixture depending on the size of the chicken breasts you are using. I like to serve this dish with wild rice. Enjoy.
