Butternut Squash Pizzas with Rosemary
Yum, yum, yum!
Crispy Rosemary Chicken and Fries
This is a one pan meal that's in the oven in 15 minutes. Rosemary, garlic, and oregano create a mouth watering aroma. If using dried herbs in place of fresh, use 1/3 the amount. Potatoes are crispy like french fries, just serve with ketchup. Kids just love this!
Sun Dried Tomato Focaccia
This isn't just a bread, it's a meal - chewy foccacia with a cheese topping.
Rosemary Shortbread Cookies
A very Victorian recipe! Some people are put off by the notion of herb cookies, but you'll be pleasantly surprised. The flavor improves with age (best 2 days after), keeping for about a week.
Roasted Baby Potatoes
Quick and easy recipe for roasted baby potatoes. Bake them at the same time as you cook your main dish!
Can also be used as a quick appetizer!
These were so good you don't even need butter or salt to taste. Made the mistake of having them done before the main dish and they were almost all gone by the time dinner started!
Roast Chicken with Rosemary
When I was in Vicenza, Italy at an open market downtown, I smelled this scrumptious smell of roast chicken at this stand. So I bought one of their chickens and looked what they stuffed in the cavity to make it taste so good! I also do my turkeys like this too!
Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Herb-Garlic-Pepper Coating
Rosemary, thyme, and garlic season a whole beef tenderloin which is then grilled to a rosy pink.
Cornish Game Hens with Garlic and Rosemary
Crusty garlic bread and a nice light Chianti wine complement this meal very well.
Rosemary Braised Lamb Shanks
Lamb shanks are slowly simmered with fresh rosemary, garlic, tomatoes, and red wine. Great served with polenta, or my family's favorite--roasted garlic mashed potatoes--as you need something to soak up the wonderful sauce. A fantastic dish for company, as all the prep work is done at the beginning, and then you just have to wait.
Rosemary Ranch Chicken Kabobs
This rosemary ranch chicken recipe is so delicious, tender, and juicy the chicken will melt in your mouth. Even the most picky eater will be begging for the last piece.
The Best Beef Tri-Tip
I received a food wish for roast beef recently, which can be done with many different cuts. I ended up deciding on beef tri-tip, since it's affordable, flavorful, great for parties, and, using this low-temp roasting technique, nearly fool-proof. No marinating, no searing, no nothing; just rub on some salt and spices and pop it into the oven until it reaches the doneness you want. Plate it up with a Romano bean salad or enjoy as a roast beef sandwich!
