Chinese five-spice is made up of cloves, anise, star anise, cinnamon and ginger and can be bought in the supermarket in the spice aisle. These chicken breasts are sprinkled with spice, marinated and baked.
These meaty mushrooms marinate in oil, onion, garlic and vinegar for an hour before they are tossed on a hot grill to cook to perfection. Absolutely sublime.
My husband says this dish is restaurant quality. It can be made ahead and kept in the refrigerator overnight. Very filling and great served with a salad and garlic bread.
Herbed pork is tender and delicious simmered in a sweet Marsala wine and garlic sauce. This is easy enough for a weeknight, and impressive enough for company.
