This is the traditional way Greeks make roast lamb – cooked until tender, half braised in a garlic lemon-flavored liquid that transforms into a luscious sauce.
Pot Roast
There is nothing like the smell of a pot roast, it’s the ultimate comfort food. I love putting it in the oven in the morning and having a delicious dinner later that night.
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.
Garlic Roasted Potatoes
This incredibly quick and easy side dish is sophisticated enough to serve at a dinner party and delicious to have kids asking for another serving.
Classic Greek Lemon Roasted Leg of Lamb with Potatoes
This melt in your mouth, lemon roasted lamb and potatoes is one of my favorite. It’s inspired by a great dinner we had with Sam and Scott in Palm Springs.

Lamb Stir-Fry with Pomegranate and Coconut Yogurt
Lamb is a great way to break out of the usual beef-chicken-pork rut, especially when used in a quick-cooking but complex-tasting dish like this.
Chili Beef, Basil and Asparagus Stir-Fry
This stir-fry uses the strong flavors of chilies and the refreshing flavor of basil to create a nice contrast of tastes. Beef is a good choice of meat for such a strong-flavored stir-fry.
Greek Chicken
I love the tang of lemony, garlicky Greek chicken. This recipe does not disappoint.
Honey Balsamic Chicken Tenders
I love balsamic vinegar and when paired with honey and garlic, well just amazing!!! These are also great on a salad.
Grill-Roasted Honey Barbecued Chicken
This whole grill-roasted chicken is rubbed with an intense spice paste and then basted with a tangy honey glaze on the grill for a double dose of flavor. It’s easy to double for a summer BBQ.
Shrimp Scampi Over Spaghetti Squash
This is just the right amount of garlicky, red-peppery bite.

A few bar basics and some kitchen staples are all it takes to put together this crowd-pleasing party spread. Plus the ability to make theses ahead and freeze them for up to a month make them great for weeknight guests.
Basil Pesto
My favorite Italian sauce is pesto, I use it for way more than pasta! It’s great on lamb chops, sandwiches and just about anything!
Beer Can Chicken
It may sound funny but stuffing a beer can into this chicken produces the most moist delicious chicken you’ve ever tasted. You won’t be sorry!
Shaved Brussels Sprouts
These are super easy and taste AMAZING. They are a delicious side to steak.

This is a wonderful treat because it’s so good for you and tastes great too. It’s amazing how yummy simple roasted veggies are.
