EASY EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA

My Baked Eggplant Parmigiana recipe is a common request from my beloved daughter in law for our family Sunday dinners. This classic Italian gem features crispy fried eggplant slices smothered with marinara sauce, and mozzarella cheese, and baked to perfection, creating a mouthwatering Baked Eggplant Parmesan. Packed with flavor and comfort, it's a beloved favorite in my kitchen, and I just know it'll become a hit in yours too!

For those who have never been a fan of or are intimidated by the thought of eating/cooking eggplant, you may be surprised that I once was as well. In actuality, when cooked properly, eggplant is delicious and doesn't have to be a soggy mess. It is such a mild vegetable that it takes on the flavors of whatever you are seasoning or cooking it with. Be adventurous and try it for yourself!

SWEET AND SPICY JALAPEÑO CHICKEN

My Sweet & Spicy Jalapeño Chicken has tender pieces of pan-fried chicken and jalapeño peppers in a sweet and slightly spicy sauce with just a hint of lime. The optional red bell peppers add a pretty pop of colour but the star of the dish is definitely the jalapeños. Depending on your spice tolerance, you can adjust the heat level by using or discarding the jalapeño seeds. Served on a bed of jasmine rice and garnished with toasted sesame seeds, cilantro and an extra squeeze of lime, this dish is an explosion of flavours sure to please even the fussiest of eaters.
