What do you make when you have leftover steak? I know what you are thinking right now. Who the heck has leftover steak??? I made fennel and garlic rubbed ribeye last night and we had one left over. (PS. Recipe for the ribeyes coming soon!) This morning I woke up and I knew exactly what […]
Fried Catfish and Shrimp With Cajun Spices
A few weeks ago we went to Tybee Island for the weekend and we stopped at the most amazing restaurant on the beach. Patrick and I have always been very fond of hole in the wall type restaurants. Places where the owner is usually on site talking to the guests and all the pictures on […]
Spicy Cheddar Stuffed Burgers Topped With Fried Onions
I remember when I was 18 and had just moved into my first apartment with my girl friends. We had no idea how to cook anything and often reheated our meals. Sitting around eating our baked frozen onion rings thinking they were the greatest snack in the world. Typically peeling the onions apart from the […]
Buffalo Chicken Tacos Stuffed With Hand Cut Fries
I might have had chicken in every meal for the past 7 days straight. I can’t help myself. Chicken has been on sale at the local grocery store all month and my freezer is packed full of different cuts. Thighs with skin, boneless thighs without skin, breast, tenders, thin cutlets… the list goes on. I […]
Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Burgers With Garlic Aioli
Yesterday I defrosted some chicken with the intent of grilling some chicken and veggies for dinner. Then all day at work I kept thinking about my food processor. Yes. My food processor. Do you ever sit around running through the inventory of your refrigerator and pantry? I do. ALL THE TIME. Sometimes after a long […]
Quick and Easy Sausage Carbonara

20(ish) Minute Tuesdays : Chicken Kabobs With Fresh Jalapeno Chimichurri
I have been dying to make a chimichurri sauce ever since my mom send me a new food processor. Seriously, the most handy device in the kitchen. Most of the sauces chimichurri sauces I love are amazing straight from the processor. This sauce I brushed onto the kabobs as they grilled. The result was perfectly […]
Southern Fried Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches
I don’t claim to be southern, but fried chicken has a special place in my heart. Growing up my dad, brother and I used to sit around the kitchen eating chicken biscuits drenched in texas pete hot sauce. Flakey butter biscuits wrapped around an extra crispy chicken breast. I personally cannot eat fried chicken without […]
California Burritos | Luxury Therapeutics Voting
Patrick has been talking about California burritos for months. An extra large pillowy tortilla packed with cheese, carnitas, avocado, french fries, sour cream, and hot sauce. Yes please. These fries are what makes the whole burrito. Soaked and double fried then tossed in a spicy seasoning. Traditionally beef carnitas are not left to marinate, they […]
A Play On Banh Mi (Pork Sandwiches)
Banh Mi is widely known in my neighborhood. There are at least 5 restaurants within a mile of my house that specialize in these Vietnamese sandwiches. They are traditionally loaded with pork belly, head cheese, jalapenos, and fresh veggies. I wanted to take something traditional and make it my own. Something bursting with Asian flavors […]
