Chicken Scarpariello
The aroma of this dish takes me back to my days waiting tables at my Dad’s restaurant. Whenever I served Chicken Scarpariello to a table the lemon-garlic scent of this dish as I carried it across the dining room never failed to make me hungry.
Chicken Marsala
A simple, but delicious old Italian favorite, Chicken Marsala is always appreciated. It is also one of the most requested recipes on our website. Naturally, you can also prepare veal scallopine alla marsala.
Grilled Chicken with Salmoriglio
It has gotten so that I cannot have a barbecue without making this fragrant and tasty chicken dish on the grill.

I can’t even begin to describe the excitement and buzz in the air when the guests see us coming out of the kitchen to the grill with the hot pans.
Chicken Piccata
This lemony chicken dish is a quick and easy way to give your family a nice treat on a weeknight. Team it up with some broccoli sautéed in oil and garlic as a side dish.
