"cayenne pepper" news and stories

If there's one thing that's better than a good chicken recipe it's a good chicken recipe that rhymes.

This is from the Cooking For 2 blog and is called Quick Chick. It combines two of my favorite things: one I eat all the time (chicken) and one I don't enough that often, for obvious reasons (bacon). This is a deceptive recipe: very, very easy to do but it has some clever ingredients to make it seem to slaved over it all day (white wine, chicken broth, a splash of lemon juice just before you serve), cooked in a skillet for about 20 minutes.

You know what I haven't made in a while? Yes, you can guess it from the title of the post. Brownies! I've been making my brownies the same way for years, but I think it's time to shake things up a little bit.

The cool food blog Andrea's Recipes has a recipe for Michael's Favorite Brownies, and it sounds perfect. I particularly like the desciption: "chewy, fudgy, with that slightly crackly top." I might even add some cayenne pepper to see what that does to them (though I'll skip the walnuts). Full recipe after the jump.
