Kefir-Brined Chicken (an Easy Sheet Pan Dinner)

February 28, 2020 by Sylvia Rose 6 Comments

This kefir-brined chicken is juicy and bursting with flavour, and it couldn’t be easier to make! Learn the basics of brining so you can put this easy and wholesome sheet pan dinner on the table this week.

First off, if you can’t get your hands on milk kefir, don’t worry about it. You can easily swap the kefir out with buttermilk if that’s easier for you to get your hands on.

I just happen to be swimming in milk kefir because I make my own at home.

Kefir, by the way, is a fermented milk beverage that’s basically a drinkable version of yogurt.

Boasting more probiotic power than yogurt, it’s easy for the body to digest and is good for gut health.

Plus, it’s a great way to sneak in a daily dose of cod liver oil for those omega-3’s! You’ll have to check out my post on making milk kefir to get the scoop on that story.

Easy Paprika Roast Chicken for Family Dinners

October 22, 2019 by Sylvia Rose 2 Comments

When life is too busy to handle and you can’t remember the last time your kid spoke more than two words to you, it’s time to gather everyone around the table. Reconnect with your family with this  juicy and flavourful paprika roast chicken. It’s easier to make than you might think!

GATHERING AROUND THE TABLE

I get it. It’s hard to round up everyone in the family to sit down to a good, hearty meal. When I was a kid, my mom was running the show by herself as a self-employed hair salon owner. She tried her best to make sure we gathered around the table, but some nights I would make Kraft Dinner for my brothers and we’d watch trash on T.V.

Some families are busy running around to-and-fro to the next extra curricular activity. Others don’t even know how to talk to each other. Every so often, I’ll go out to eat and my heart twinges with sadness for the family that’s glued to mobile devices.

With this hyper-connected world that disconnects us, it’s more important than ever to carve out time to gather around the table. Today we’re going to do it with a roasted paprika chicken dinner.
