Chicken with Artichoke Pan Sauce
Robust Italian flavors—piney rosemary, peppery pancetta, zingy lemon—make homey chicken breasts sing in this classic Italian chicken dish.
Baked Chicken Parmesan
“Breading” the chicken cutlets in parmesan is a great substitute for bread crumbs. Adding lots of herbs and garlic makes this dish full of flavor.

Italians braise chicken for hours in a rich wine and mushroom sauce. This recipe keeps the flavor but cuts the cooking time.

Nothing says cold winter day like Lasagna. I love vegetables and this red vegetable lasagna is always a crowd pleaser. Plus it’s even better the next day as leftovers.

I still think this is Melissa’s favorite meal I make. It’s really quick and easy and taste’s great with or without the chicken.
