Coq au Vin {Bon appétit Julia}
Today marks the 100th birthday of the witty and talented, Julia Child. She is being celebrated across many food sites today I’m sure. While I remember watching The French Chef on PBS and being captivated by Julia’s quirky voice and clear love of cooking, it wasn’t until I was reintroduced to her character in the hit movie Julie & Julia that I fell in love with her. I’m sure there are many forums that have addressed this movie’s effect on food blogging. It certainly captivated me….though I had no thought of writing about food at that time.

Chicken Marbella
We were first introduced to Chicken Marbella at a dinner party. Not just any dinner party, but a monthly affair that revolved around a different theme chosen by the host couple. We were each assigned a course and often a specific recipe to bring together to share.

Classic Chicken Marsala
This recipe follows the Classic Chicken Marsala basics but we gave the dish a flavor jumpstart by browning the chicken in sage brown butter.

Chicken & Cashew Lettuce Wraps
Chicken & Cashew Lettuce Wraps. Do you ever pick something up to take a bite and quickly realize there’s no putting it down? It’s just too yummy to stop or too messy to chance a reload. I find this is the case with most cupcakes, wrap sandwiches, corn on the cob, tacos, and definitely lettuce wraps. This dish needs to be eaten at the table, with family & friends, where you can lean over your plate, lick your fingers, and not worry about a napkin until you’ve taken the last bite.
