Chicken Sauce Piquante
Cast Iron and Lace

1y ago
The word Piquante is of French origin meaning to “prick or sting.” It is recognized as a spicy Cajun dish composed of a tomato based sauce with the Cajun trinity and a little roux. You can use this dish with any meat and it is served on hot rice. This recipe features chicken but can be used with anything from chicken, deer, alligator, etc. I used boneless chicken thighs and breast for this recipe but you can also use a cut up fryer as well. The bone in gives it such a great flavor, but for this recipe I used boneless chicken. 1 stick of butter 2 tbsp brown sugar Several dashes Worcestershire ..read more

Deer Stroganoff

Stroganoff’s history started with a French chef who worked for a wealthy St. Petersburg family who created the dish for a cooking contest in 1891. Following the Russian custom of the day, he named the prize-winning dish for his employer, Count Pavel Alexandrovich Stroganov. (Pictured below) The original dish was said to be beef. Throughout the years, there have been dozens of variations of the recipe. I decided to make mine using venison. While most would imagine this dish prepared in a Russian palace, you’ll have to settle for my images below where I cooked my very own version of it for my D ..read more

This recipe is from my best friend and the best Taunte to my kids, Janie Stelly! I’m very blessed to have her. And it doesn’t hurt that she can throw down in the kitchen! She cooked for us this past Sunday and it was such a treat. Here is her legendary Crawfish Pasta! Or Crawfish Fettuccine! Around here, we call it crawfish fettuccini even though penne noodles are used. It’s just what we call it. We don’t know why, we just do. She prefers to use penne pasta vs fettuccini because the sauce is able to get inside the noodle. It is insanely good and never disappoints. 2 onions diced 1 bell pepper ..read more
