Chicken Saltimbocca
Chicken Saltimbocca is one of those recipes that I would argue tastes even better fresh from your skillet then served in a restaurant. We’ve been on a cooking journey recreating classic restaurant dishes at home.

Linguine with White Clam Sauce

Classic Lasagna {with a Spooky Effect}

Caprese Panzanella {with Shrimp}
I scored these gorgeous tomatoes at the market this week, aren’t the colors amazing! Each year when tomato season hits, we run down the list of our favorite tomato recipes. Almost in unison, I heard Caprese Salad and Bread Salad. Just think what gorgeous children those two classics will make. That’s when the Caprese Panzanella love child was born.

Chopped Italian Submarine Salad
By the summer of sixth grade I was old enough to head off on my bicycle in the morning, with one stipulation, be home before dark. Most days for lunch I split an Italian Grinder with my BFF before heading to the lake. This Chopped Italian Submarine Salad has all those familiar wonderful flavors.

Italian Sausage & Polenta Lasagna
The pictures don’t do this recipe justice, but I am here to tell you that Italian Sausage & Polenta Lasagna is pure comfort. Surprisingly, that comfort is delivered without a guilt trip. That’s right, this recipe came straight out of the new Weight Watchers cook book AND it’s made in the slow cooker. Badda bing. Badda boom.

Braciola {Italian Beef Rolls}
Braciole {Italian Beef Rolls} slowly simmered in spicy Arrabbiata sauce until the beef is fork tender. The filling, comprised of parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, Italian bread crumbs, garlic, toasted pine nuts, and hard-boiled egg, is my loose interpretation of this classic Italian dish.

Chicken Cacciatore
I’ve been itching to make Chicken Cacciatore but sadly one key ingredient stood in the way. Green bell peppers and I just can’t seem to get along. Same goes for cucumbers. Two ingredients you’ll rarely see included in a recipe on Lemony Thyme. However, an Eat Out of the Fridge/Pantry produce drawer discovery changed everything.

Feast of the Seven Fishes {Christmas Eve Tradition}
Several years ago I got a hankering to attempt the Feast of the Seven Fishes for our Christmas Eve dinner. I carefully selected recipes, ordered specialty items ahead from our local seafood market, and rewrote my plan of attack dozens of times before the big day arrived. I envisioned this becoming our new Christmas Eve traditional dinner and oh how that excited me.
