This was O.K. I would not be making it again. Didn't care for the sweet flavor.

This was delicious. The chicken was tender and moist. It definitely had the right amount of spices. The house smelled wonderful. Served over white Basmati rice. modifications: Added 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 bay leaf, and 1 Tbsp of Cayenne pepper.

Fiery Pork Skewers

Reviewed: Oct. 22, 2009

I tripled the sauce for this recipe and marinated overnight in a ziplock bag. Skewered with onions. It was very tasty - a good balance of sweet and spicy. Served with side of canned corn. This was my third time making this dish and will make it again.

Shrimp Scampi V

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2009

WOW! This turned out great with my additions. I used raw shrimp: let it sit in the wine and black pepper for 30 minutes. Used EVOO and a spoon of butter. Added a lot of red pepper flakes and about 2 Tbsp of lemon juice. Also used about 1/2 cup of the reserve water from the pasta to help thicken it up. It was delicious!

Orzo with Parmesan and Basil

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2009

This is the perfect side dish. I served next to breaded chicken. Super easy and really good. Used olive oil instead of butter.

Marinated Baked Pork Chops

Reviewed: Jul. 6, 2009

This was a good recipe, the only downside was not having a thicker sauce. I cooked covered for 30, then 20 uncovered, and finished off with broiling for a very short time. Although I made 2 chops, I used the recipe for 6 chops to make the sauce. It turned out really tender and delicious. I will definitely make this again considering the ingredients are always readily available.

Happy Shrimp

Reviewed: Mar. 28, 2009

This was great and simple. I used precooked shrimp and made more of the sauce to coat the pasta. Topped off with fresh grated parmesan cheese. This will make it in our rotation.

Pan-fried Steak with Marsala Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009

I used top sirloin but will use filet next time. My modifications: added cornstarch to thicken and doubled the marsala amount. Also, I had previously made broth from this roasted chicken recipe which had rosemary it (http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Roast-Chicken-with-Rosemary/Detail.aspx ). Next time, I won't add more rosemary to the sauce. Overall, the sauce is a hit! Served with side of boiled red potatoes and canned corn.

Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 12, 2009

This was quick and easy. I made basmati rice to go with it. The mustard flavor didn't really come out as much as honey. I'll try adding more mustard next time. Great recipe.

Easy Garlic Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 20, 2008

It does not get any easier than this. I love this recipe-you just can't go wrong with it! I cut my chicken breast into good size strips. I usually serve it with steamed broccoli and rice.

Too much butter. Did not like frying the fish. Served with lemon to add more flavor. Will bake the fish next time.

Ginger Glazed Mahi Mahi

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2008

Great recipe. It was very easy to make and I had most of the ingredients at home. I served with rice and steamed vegetables. The whole family loved it. Will make again. Maybe even with chicken instead of mahi.

Sunshine Halibut

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2008

We loved this recipe and it was very easy to fix. Will definately make again. We used olive oil to sautee the onions and garlic. Also used a little more garlic than the recipe calls for.
