Almond-Crusted Halibut

Recipe by: Susan W.

Reviews(3)

This dish melts in your mouth. The credit goes to my future mother-in-law. Not only does it taste gorgeous, but halibut is a sustainably sourced fish. Each halibut fillet should be approximately an inch thick. Substitute crème fraîche for the double cream for a lighter dish.

Apple Stuffed Chicken Breast

Recipe by: Behr

Reviews(5)

This is a great dish for using up autumn apples. Bramley, Golden Delicious or Cox's Pippin apples work well.

Basil-stuffed chicken breasts

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Reviews(1)

This stylish-looking main course is surprisingly easy to make. The chicken breasts can be prepared in advance, ready for cooking, and kept, covered, in the fridge. Tagliatelle tossed with a little grated lemon zest would be a good accompaniment, plus ciabatta with olives or sun-dried tomatoes.

This easy seafood quiche makes a wonderful brunch or light dinner.

Duck ragout with mustard croutes

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Duck legs become beautifully succulent when slow-cooked with wine and vegetables, and are very lean without the skin. Boiling the cooking liquid to reduce it results in a sauce with a wonderful flavour, which is great soaked up by the crisp, piquant bread croutes that accompany the dish.

Fig and Lemon Chicken

Recipe by: Kimber

Reviews(6)

Succulent chicken thighs roasted with figs and lemon slices makes for a satisfying and impressive Mediterranean-inspired meal. The slightly sweet and sour sauce is perfect to serve with rice, and helps to caramelise the figs and lemon. Easy, delicious and if you feel the sauce isn't enough it can easily be doubled.

Fresh Tuna, Sun-Dried Tomato and Artichoke Linguine

Recipe by: RENZ

Be the first to review it!

This tastes best with fresh tuna but if you like the idea - feel free to try it with tins of good quality tuna. It's very filling but makes a lovely summery pasta dish for parties.

Jamaican Patties

Recipe by: winstono2005

Be the first to review it!

I just love Patties and here's a traditional recipe that beats the commercial stuff you buy from most West Indian takeaways or the stuff you buy in packets that gives you next to no amount of meat. This recipe depends on the amount of heat that you like. I personally would add 5 scotch bonnet peppers to my mixture but typically you should add 1 -2 scotch bonnet peppers.
