Sea - Bass With Zucchini And Olives
Surrounded by zucchini, they inspired me to make a delightful combination with the fish. I also gathered onions, dill, garlic, parsley, green olives, a lemon and a dry white wine, that once cooked, created a beautiful layer of vegetables to put the sea-bass on.
Pasta With Artichokes And Olives
This Mediterranean pasta is simple and boasts a lot of flavor thanks to olives and artichokes. Ready in 30 minutes, the pasta is tossed in a cherry tomato sauce cooked with garlic and olive oil, making it creamy and so delicious.
Tuscan Farro Soup
Simple yet amazing. This healthy soup, a kind of minestrone with farro, is ubiquitous in Lucca, a city in Tuscany. The farro is traditional, but you could use spelt or barley with good results.
Portokalopita - Greek Orange Cake
Portokalopita is the easy make-ahead dessert recipe that dreams are made of. A decadent (butter-free) custard cake made with phyllo dough and finished with fragrant Honey-Orange Syrup. The sweet and tart Orange Honey Syrup brings it over the top!
Baked French Toast
This no-fail, lightened-up overnight baked French toast with fresh fruit and honey-lime syrup is perfect for brunch, holidays, and fuss-free gatherings. Get it ready the night before, then simply pop it in the oven while you enjoy your morning coffee!
Roasted Cod With Tomatoes And Olives
In this effortless one-skillet meal, cod fillets are simply pan-roasted basted in butter on the stovetop then gently finished in a moderate oven to guarantee even cooking and tender, flaky fish. The balance of buttery richness and bright acidity in the sauce complements the mild seafood.
Chicken With Cucumber-Feta Salad
Feta and olives add briny bites to the creamy, crunchy salad, but feel free to incorporate other elements of Greek salad or tzatziki, like romaine lettuce, bell peppers, mint or dill, toasted walnuts or thinly sliced red onion. Eat with lemon potatoes or toasted pita.
Chicken With Mushrooms And Snap Peas
This lighter, brighter take on a family favorite: golden-brown chicken cutlets. With a rich, creamy sauce and fresh spring peas, this dish is the perfect representation of the transition from winter to spring.
