Tender & juicy braised chicken with bacon, roots, and tubers

Tender & juicy braised chicken with bacon, roots, and tubers

This is one of my absolute FAVORITE chicken recipes. The meat turns out tender, juicy, and delicious every time. It's easy and incredibly versatile. The cut of chicken and the veggies can be switched around to accommodate your own personal taste, your dietary needs, and the ingredients you just happen to have on hand. This version uses bacon, carrots, potatoes, radishes, onion, white wine, tamari soy sauce, and dijon mustard for a hearty, filling, flavorful dish!

Plátanos Maduros (fried sweet ripe plantains)

Plátanos Maduros (fried sweet ripe plantains)

Plantains. One of my favorite starchy foods! Since moving to Miami, I've been eating them a lot more often. All the grocery stores sell them -- even the little mom and pop markets. And they're cheap! Around $0.59-0.99/pound. You can also find the on the menu at a majority of restaurants in town. Unfortunately, though, pretty much all of those restaurants are going to be frying their plantains in unhealthy rancid omega-6 vegetable oils. Luckily, cooking plantains at home in a healthy cooking fat is super fast and easy. This post will teach you how to cook Plátanos Maduros (just "maduros" for short), which are made from ripened (black/yellow) plantains and are sweet.
