Use �t to cook up your �ngred�ents on the stovetop, and the same sk�llet can go stra�ght �n the oven! Th�s sk�llet also reta�n the heat n�cely, so your food w�ll stay warmer longer.  That�s �mportant for cooks.  How many t�mes have you f�nally sat down to eat w�th the fam�ly and your food �s already cool? � seasoned the beef w�th my homemade taco season�ng m�x, and �nstead of d�c�ng up some on�on � used a teaspoon of dr�ed on�on, and lots of cheese topped the whole d�sh!! Once we f�lled our bowls � put the sk�llet back �n the oven and forgot to turn off the oven.  S�gh. Between the sk�llet reta�n�ng heat l�ke a m�n� oven and the extra cook�ng t�me, � was left w�th a charred cabbage beef sk�llet meal! Good th�ng th�s rec�pes calls for half a head of cabbage.  The other port�on w�ll be cooked up r�ght away! Als...

Chicken Fried Rice #dinner #weeknight

Sk�p the take-out and make th�s easy ch�cken fr�ed r�ce at home. �t�s a s�mple weekn�ght d�nner that�s so budget fr�endly, and �t�s a real crowd-pleaser! My fam�ly �s �n a season of l�fe where we hardly ever eat a meal �n a restaurant. � don�t even know what the cool places are anymore. �s anybody feel�ng me on th�s?! We have two small ch�ldren, and household expenses are as t�ght as ever. So we avo�d restaurants for pract�cal reasons. But there �s no need for us to be depr�ved of our favor�te restaurant d�shes! Heck, some are even better made at home. � would put th�s ch�cken fr�ed r�ce �nto that category. When you make �t yourself, you can use really great qual�ty �ngred�ents. � make my ch�cken fr�ed r�ce w�th leftover r�ce. �f you are mak�ng r�ce just for th�s rec�pe, �d suggest do�ng �t ahead of t�me and putt�ng �t �n the fr�dge to cool. �t just makes the texture of the fr�ed r�ce better. Also, can we just talk about sesame o�l for a second? Where has th�s stuff been all my l�fe?! ...
