Life Through My Eyes
For Faraz’s birthday dinner, tonight, I made this chicken taco twist. I saw this idea for a twisted bread sometime ago, I think on Pinterest, and changed it up to my liking. Cut them as small or large of a serving as you would like. What you need: ground chicken taco seasoning bell peppers, diced …
BBQs are a favorite around here from spring through fall [and often even in the midst of winter]. In fact, we have already done a barbecue a handful of times in the mere few weeks the weather has been nice. Not to mention I love how healthy it is the way I make mine. Typically I …
I turned my boneless chicken wings recipe into a healthier version today [Friday night] by baking them. Full of flavor, without the oil/frying factor. Here’s how I made it today: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking tray with foil. Spray non-stick cooking spray over the foil. I seasoned boneless chicken cubes with black pepper, paprika, …
Today marks my parents 30th wedding anniversary! I’ve been out of the kitchen for the most part post-surgery, but tonight I made these chicken kababs. Tawook is pretty much cubed chicken that is marinated, skewered and then grilled. I marinated the boneless chicken cubes with salt, black pepper, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, ginger powder, …
Yesterday was a cold and snowy day [the complete opposite of the day before] and I wanted something warm. I had this idea saved in my “must try sometime” pile for a long time, and decided to try it out yesterday. I didn’t want to make a pie dough, and didn’t have a pre-made one …
So many recipes to catch up on!! Things have been on the hectic side lately, and I’ve definitely slacked on staying updated on the recipes. It was a great weekend with the family [we invited a lot of family over yesterday], and I loved every minute of it. It’s a lot of work, and tiring… …
Doesn’t happen often, but I do cook Pakistani food sometimes. Monday was one of those days. But then, I turned it into a sandwich. Mainly because I had subs sitting at home that needed to be used up. I roughly cut chicken into bite size pieces and marinated it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, ginger, …
Slowly, but surely, working on posting old family favorite recipes that are a staple around here. These popcorn chicken are a must throughout Ramadan for iftari in our house. To make the popcorn chicken (the following quantities are for about two pounds of boneless chicken cut into tiny bite size pieces): I marinate the bite …
Crispy oven fried chipotle chicken tenders was on the menu tonight as part of our iftari. Easy, delicious, and healthy… oh, and they are baked [not fried]. Just the way I like it! What I did was: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Using boneless chicken cubes, or take chicken breast fillets and cut into …
Today was day eight of Ramadan, and so far, my family has had typical iftari for the most part. Time for a change, for sure. Or at least something in addition to change it up. Things have been so busy lately, that I haven’t cooked much at all. Today, I made boneless tandoori chicken from …
