I thought Chicken Fajitas were nothing but a sizzly showman at the Mexican restaurant: WAY overrated with their steamy smoky cast iron entrance. (Like, get over yourself already.) Then I tried making a recipe at home with my own marinade. Whoa! Tender juicy blackened chicken, partying in your tortilla with perfectly cooked peppers and onions. I didn't even like fajitas, and now I'm going to run away with them (we're never coming back)! I will show you just how to make them!
A traditional Cuban roasted pork recipe that is very simple, yet packed with tons of flavor! There is nothing to this pork except an amazing marinade, but it is honestly some of the best meat I’ve ever put in my mouth. Just look at that crust!

This summer, take a trip to Flavortown.
This Savory Parmesan French Toast with Hollandaise sauce will blow your mind. Same texture as French toast, but with cheese and sauce instead of syrup.
Flavorful, juicy, NOT DRY chicken tacos, can it be true?? Yes, and you can easily make them in 30 minutes on the stovetop, or in the crockpot in about 3 hours. These shredded chicken tacos are made with just a few ingredients but taste like they're from a taqueria, no lie. And we are NOT throwing chicken in a crock pot with some salsa. Please.
Is it even Beef Bourguignon if you don't follow Julia Child's recipe?? Turns out, yes. This fabulous French beef stew featuring burgundy wine is famous for a reason! It is different from a regular beef stew because the wine sauce is richer and thicker, and great care is taken to ensure the vegetables are not overcooked. The result is truly transcendent!
Bananas wrapped in flour tortillas, then fried and rolled in cinnamon sugar. I know, NOT a churro. But it tastes like a banana-filled churro, spot on. And then there's the Chocolate Peanut Butter dipping sauce, so really I'm not even sure why you're complaining.
These are the recipes you loved (and visited!) the most this year, judging by traffic. All of them were published in 2015.
Stromboli is basically pizza that's been rolled up like a cinnamon roll. The classic ingredients include mozzarella, ham, and salami. I threw in some pepperoni and pepper jack cheese just for fun. It's so good dipped in marinara! Perfect quick dinner (that kids love) or appetizer for football-watching.
This easy Thai Cucumber Salad recipe is light and refreshing! It is the perfect relish to go alongside Chicken Satay and Peanut Sauce. Quickly pickled cucumbers, shallots, peppers, and cilantro come together to make the perfect summer side dish for anything coming off the grill, whether it be Thai food or your regular grill menu!

Make your favorite American-style Greek gyros at home! This gyro meat recipe combines ground beef and lamb to get that distinctive flavor you find at Greek restaurants.

Liege waffles are made with a brioche-like yeast dough and are studded with pearl sugar. Pearl sugar is basically a small chunk of sugar that holds its shape as the waffles cooks, leaving you with gloriously crunchy bites of sugar. They make regular waffles look like amateurs.
What's better than a soft, puffy donut? A cream filled donut! Bavarian Cream Donuts are a classic for a reason.

Did your grandma make you Chicken and Rice Casserole? It was one of my Grandma Georgia's signature dishes. She called it "Chicken Continental." It called for Minute Rice and canned soup. I've updated the recipe to be completely from scratch, with a homemade sauce and regular white rice (which is more nutritious.) It's still really easy, and a great old fashioned recipe for when you feel like you need a warm hug from your dinner!
