Sweet and salty, quick and easy, and simply a great chicken. Whenever I catch myself walking past the rotisserie chicken stand in ShopRite or other big box stores of the like, I can’t help but lay my eyes on it for an extra couple of seconds thinking, “this cooking style makes chicken so good.” Was…

9×13 Life: Kid’s Favorite Chicken, Rice, and Potatoes
Shiffy said, “It’s nothing, it’s not a recipe,” and we said, “That’s exactly what we want!” Note from BCP: You are already familiar with Shiffy’s recipes here on BCP, including some epic ones, like The Most Delicious Cauliflower Soup, Dairy Apple Caramel Galette, and more gourmet items like this Eggplant and Pistachio Appetizer. If you…
Japanese Sweet Potato & Feta Salad
It’s simple, but all you need are these sweet potatoes as the star. I really, really enjoy Japanese sweet potatoes, more than regular potatoes, sweet potatoes, or any other type. True, they’re not in every grocery, but they’re available in enough places (I can think of three places that I often shop at that carry…
Elevate Any Dinner with This Simple Hack
This one easy hack takes your dinners from eh to eh-xciting. And only adds 2 more minutes of prep time. Bowls. Yup, just make it a bowl. Same dinner, same boring chicken, rice, roasted vegetable — but throw it in a bowl with any toppings you have on hand, and you’ll be counting down until…
Watermelon-Strawberry Frozen Drink
“Tastes like Rita’s”–that’s what my kids said when I gave them a cold cup of freshly blended frozen drink. Yay! Moms, if you cringe at the amount of sugar consumption in the summer and wish refreshing treats could be wholesome, you’re going to love this recipe. There’s some technique here, so pay attention the first…
Cilantro Lime Roasted Corn & Avocado Salad
This one uses canned corn, but you’d never know. I have so many things to say about this recipe! First, I know that cilantro usually has a “Ew we don’t eat that” type of reputation in some cooking circles and I was also totally like “I’ll sub parsley or basil” (which you totally could) too…
Balsamic Dill Salmon
This one has become one of my go-to easy Shabbos day salmon recipes. With fresh herbs and served cold, it’s light, bright and perfect for a summer lunch. I was trying to track down the origin of this recipe, so I could share it with all of you. I’ve been making it for years and…
Caramelized Onion Chicken
It might take a couple extra steps–but this dish is that “notch up” chicken you’ve been missing on the menu. One afternoon, I set out to make Chicken Marsala for dinner. I didn’t, though, like the look of the mushrooms I had on hand. It was time to improvise. I worked with the remaining ingredients…
Easy Summer Corn and Feta Salad
Enjoy it for Shavuos and then again and again all summer long. This fresh and bright salad will become a shalosh seudos favorite! We love corn on the cob in my house. And sometimes we buy too much of it. One Friday last summer we had a few extra ears that had to be cooked…
The 9×13 Life: Peruvian Chicken
Just the right spice is the easiest way to fast flavor. In my house, aside from our Between Carpools favorites, I have my “top three go-to fast prep dinners.” One is my side of salmon, simple seasoned (curry + cumin + dill + garlic + salt + pepper) roasted at 425°F until crispy at the…
