Roasted Chicken with an Apricot and Balsamic Glaze is an easy dinner that so many of you make on rotation. It is one of the most popular recipes on my website and it is one of the simplest and most flavorful recipes that I will ever post. The marinade comes together in minutes. So you simply marinate the chicken and get it in the oven. That’s it. I love to serve it with a side salad. Such a delicious and healthy meal. I hope you will try it! Recipe note…a high quality balsamic is very necessary in this recipe. You almost want the vinegar to be thick like a syrup. Ingredients below and full recipe on my website www.miciamammas.com Ingredients (Serves 4) 2 1/2 lbs. Chicken Breast, I use bone in/skin on breasts. But you can use boneless/skinless ½ Cup Apricot Jam 2 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar **HIGH Quality is very important 2 Tbsp. Grain Mustard 2 Tbsp. Olive Oil, plus extra for greasing the pan 2 Tbsp. Fresh Rosemary, chopped 1 ½ Tsp. Salt ½ Tsp.

ZUCCHINE ALLA SCAPECE, a classic recipe from Naples is so delicious and easy to make. I love to serve it for antipasti (Or on a charcuterie board) along with Italian meats and cheeses. But it is also a great side dish!! It’s best for me served on top of toasted bread. The flavors are just incredible. The great thing about this recipe is that it stays for about a week in the refrigerator, so you can make it in advance when you are having a get together. Full recipe below and on my website www.miciamammas.com Ingredients (Serves 4) ⅓ cup Olive Oil, plus extra for frying 4 Garlic Cloves 2 lbs. Zucchini, slice into ⅛ inch circles 5 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar ¾ tsp. Salt ⅛ tsp. Red Pepper Flakes ¼ tsp. Black Pepper 2 tbsp. Fresh Mint, chopped 2 tbsp. Fresh Basil, chopped Method Heat olive oil in a small pot for frying. I use a small sauce pot and fill it up a quarter of the way up. In a small frying pan, heat 1/3 cup olive oil and add the garlic. Heat on a very low flame until the garlic fork tender, making sure it does not burn. Turn off the heat and use a fork to mash the garlic into the oil. In the meantime, slice the zucchini in ⅛ inch slices and put on a dry dish towel in a single layer. Cover with another towel and pat dry. Begin to fry the zucchini in small batches for about 10 minutes until slightly golden brown. Remove from the pot and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. In a small bowl, mix the smashed garlic and oil, with the apple cider vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes, black pepper, mint and basil. Add in the cooled zucchini and combine with the dressing. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.

Growing up my grandma always had something sweet for breakfast with her coffee. From a very early age these simple “S” cookies were a staple in our family. She would make them often and always have them in her cookie jar. I miss just being able to walk into her home and have one, but so glad that I have this recipe to remember her by. Recipe below and on my website www.miciamammas.com Grandma’s “S” Cookies Ingredients (Makes about 64 cookies) Ingredients 2 ½ Cups Flour 1 Stick Butter, cut into tiny cubes 4 Eggs 1 Cup Sugar- Maybe more 2 tsp Baking Powder ¼ tsp. Salt 1 ½ tbsp. Vanilla Method Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Three large cookie sheets lined with parchment. In a bowl add in the flour. Add in the butter. Use your fingers to mix the flour and butter. Rubbing it between your fingers and making it almost like a bread crumb texture. Make a well in the middle of the mixture and add in the eggs, sugar, baking powder, vanilla and salt. Use a fork to combine until a dough begins to form and then use your hands to mix. Place the dough on the counter and knead for about 2 minutes. Cut the dough into quarters, then each quarter in half. Take a piece of the dough and roll it out into a tube (log) shape about 22 inches long. Then cut the log into 2 ½ pieces. Roll the 2 ½ inch piece out a little more until it is about 4 inches in length and form into the letter “S.” Do this with the rest of the dough. Place on parchment and bake for about 15 minutes until the cookie become a light golden brown. #cookies #familyrecipes #grandmasrecipe #grandmasrecipes #scookies #baking #italianbaking #breakfastcookie #bakewithme #simplebaking

Tortoni is a frozen Italian “ice cream” like dessert usually flavored with almonds. It was a dessert originally created by Giuseppe Tortoni.  He was Neopolitan and owned a place in Paris named Cafe Tortoni where he served these delicious treats. This dessert actually made its way to the US in the mid 19th Century and was sold as street food.   For me Tortoni is something I ate as a kid all the time. It was a dessert that I always looked forward to having at our weekly family dinner nights at Gargiulo’s restaurant in Coney Island, Brooklyn. Their Tortoni is legendary. This recipe is so easy.  They are a great dessert for Easter.  Very kid friendly too and you can make them in advance. Ingredients below and full recipe on my website. Ingredients (Makes 12) 2 Egg White 4 Tbsp. Confectioners Sugar plus ½ cup 2 Cup Heavy Cream 1 1/2 tsp. Almond Extract 2 tsp. Vanilla Extract 3/4 cup Crushed Amaretti Cookies 6 Amarena Cherries halved 12 - 4 oz.

The weather is finally getting nice out. So, it is time to whip out my Espresso Martini AFFOGATO recipe. Espresso martinis are all the rage. But I wanted to do something a little different. So I kicked it up a notch. For those of you that dont know, affogato is a traditional Italian dessert made with vanilla gelato and hot espresso. Its delicious all by itself. But when you add some @vangoghvodka double espresso vodka, it takes on a whole new life!! And wow is it incredible. I top it with whipped cream, chocolate syrup and a cookie of some sort. I mean why not? Right? You might as well go for it!!! Full recipe below and on my website (link in bio) Espresso Martini Affogato (Serves 1) 2 Scoops of Vanilla Gelato or Ice Cream 1 Shot of Espresso - Freshly Brewed and Warm ½ Shot @Van gogh Double Espresso Vodka 1 tbsp. Chocolate Syrup 2 Tbsp. Fresh Whipped Cream 1 Cookie of Choice Put two scoops of gelato in a heat safe glass. Pour the espresso over the ice cream. Then pour in the double espresso vodka. Top with the chocolate syrup, whipped cream and a cookie. Serve immediately.

CHOCOLATE AVOCADO MOUSSE is my go to snack at night when I have a woo-lee (Brooklyn Italian American slang for cravings😂) for something sweet. And I promise you don’t even taste the avocado, but you simply enjoy a creamy, chocolate pudding like, healthy dessert. The benefits of the ingredients are endless. To name a few… avocados are loaded with heart healthy fatty acids. Cocoa powder is rich in fiber and supports a healthy gut. Be sure to buy an organic brand!!! So not only is this recipe easy, but it is an extremely guiltless snack. Full recipe below and printable version on my website www.miciamammas.com Chocolate Avocado Mousse Makes 2 Servings 2 Avocados - peeled and pitted ¼ Cup of Cacao Powder ¼ Cup Real Maple Syrup 2 tsp.

Homemade bread is easier than you think and so much better than store bought. All I do is read labels and the ingredients used in our bread are appalling. It is full of all sorts of preservatives that are so bad for you. So I decided I was going to teach myself how to make my own bread. After many attempts and failures I am so excited to share this recipe with you. It’s foolproof and easy to do. Recipe below and on my website www.miciamammas.com Homemade Bread Ingredients (serves 6 to 8) 3 Cups 00 Flour 1 tsp. Salt 1 Packet of Rapid Rise Instant Yeast 1 ½ Cups of Lukewarm Water 1 tbsp. Olive Oil Method In a bowl add in the flour, salt, instant yeast and combine. Add in the lukewarm water and olive oil and stir with a fork until the dough is formed. It should be sticky but not too wet. If it is too wet, sprinkle in a little bit of flour and mix. Cover with a cloth and put in a dark dry place for two hours. Then sprinkle some flour on a large piece of parchment. Fold the dough into a ball and cover for another thirty minutes. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Put the dutch oven into the oven to warm it up. Place the bread in the dutch oven. Using a knife, score the bread, cover and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes. Cool and serve. #homemadebread #breadmaking #breadfromscratch #bakebread #freshlybakedbread #breadmaking #makeitdelicious #breadrecipe #breadrecipes #freshlybaked #tastethelove #sandwichbread
