Rhode Island and Italian Chicken Goodness

Welcome to Rhode Island Day. Today we celebrate the last of the original colonies to become a state. Rhode Island was established by Roger Williams, a man persecuted for his beliefs in Massachusetts.

Return to Me Oh Chicken Vesuvio!

Have you ever seen the 2000 romantic comedy, “Return To Me” with David Duchovny and Minnie Driver? It was written and directed by Bonnie Hunt, and was the last film of Carroll O’Connor’s career. He died a year later, and we lost one of the great ones. If you haven’t seen it, I’m not going to spoil it for you other than to say this was a beautiful romantic comedy, a real throw back to a more innocent time in the film industry.

Italian Breaded Chicken Breast

This is one of those yummy Italian dishes that screams side of Spaghetti in a Marinara Sauce if you please!

Yeah, I like this dish. What about you?

Italian Mushroom Asiago Chicken over Simple Garlic Linguine

I love all things Italian, especially the foods. The herbs, the mushrooms, the aromas of garlic filling the kitchen. I adore warm breads dipped in olive oil, pastas with little or no sauce and the clean beauty of a colorful Caprese Salad.  When I saw this recipe at bakeatmidnite.com, I knew I had to give it a try.  It just seemed to go perfectly over a bed of simple garlic linguine. This is a wonderful meal for the whole family. Add a Caprese Salad and a bottle or two of Chianti and it’s perfect for a leisurely summer supper to share with friends.

Chicken Marsala Mema Style

Let’s start with what the heck is Mema Style?  Mema is me – it’s what my grandchildren call me.  If you hail from Texas or are a fan of “The Big Bang Theory” and its spin-off “Young Sheldon” then you know what I’m talking about. Mema is Texan for Grandma. In our house, there is a bit more to the whole Mema thing, especially since no one in my family actually hails from Texas.
