Simple Blackened Salmon with Garlic-Lime Butter
This is my go-to blackened salmon recipe for when I want something bold, fast, and packed with flavor—no fancy pans required. You don’t need a cast-iron skillet to get that crispy, spicy crust. A good nonstick pan and high heat do the trick beautifully. This recipe comes together in under 20 minutes and feels like something you'd get at a restaurant
Classic Bravas Sauce
This smoky, slightly spicy bravas sauce is the flavor bomb behind Spain’s iconic patatas bravas. It’s rich, bold, and ridiculously easy to make with a few pantry staples.
Patatas Bravas
I just got back from a trip to Barcelona, and if there’s one thing that’s stayed on my mind (besides the sun and cava), it’s the Patatas Bravas I tried during a food tour. Golden, crisp potatoes served hot and crackly, with smoky tomato sauce and sometimes creamy aioli.
Stovetop Mac & Cheese with Sharp Cheddar & Parmesan
This is my take on classic Kraft — rich, creamy, and deeply cheesy — but made with real-deal ingredients and a silky stovetop sauce that comes together in minutes.
Bourbon Peach BBQ Pulled Pork Sliders
These Bourbon Peach BBQ Pulled Pork Sliders are the perfect balance of sweet, smoky, and savory! Tender, slow-cooked pork is coated in a rich peach bourbon BBQ sauce and piled high on buttery slider buns with a tangy slaw for crunch.
