Italian Crumbed Chicken Fillets
I got this Italian styled crumbed and shallow fried chicken breast recipe “Petti di pollo impanati e fritti” from my favourite Italian cooking website Giallo zafferano. The chicken breast fillets are marinated in lemon juice, olive oil and parsley for several hours and then coated in breadcrumbs. The result is moist tender chicken with a…

I am always looking for meals that my lads will wolf down without complaints. I am happy to say that I can’t make enough of these baked chicken and cheese nuggets. Let me know how you fare and there are more kid (and big kid) friendly meal links at the end of the post. Steps…

Panko Breadcrumbs
Panko breadcrumbs are made from white bread using a technique that gives large coarse flakes. This makes them fluffy and light when used. I use them anywhere you would use regular breadcrumbs, especially when shallow frying crumbed meat and vegetables. If you haven’t used them before, drop what you are doing and go and buy…

PK’S Broccoli Filled Beef Meatloaf
Meatloaf is a great way to make a little go a long way. I use minced beef, vegetables and cheese to hook my fussy little eaters (lamb, pork, chicken work a treat too). My wife loved it as well, mostly as it is a ‘one pan’ dish! The broccoli filling was supposed to stay hidden…

PK’s Beef Parmigiana
This is simple home cooking at its best. The classic Beef Parmigiana (we Aussies call it a Parmi) is a great way to make a little go a long way. They are deceptively rich and filling! Plus you get to take out any of the day’s frustrations out on the cutlets when you give them a…

PK’s Baked Cauliflower Slice
This simple cauliflower and cheese dish is irresistible to children and adults alike. I am always looking for kid friendly meals that require little effort to make. 🙂 Let’s face it, the gooey cheese (grilled to perfection on top) is the best bit, so if you are a vegetarian you could use dairy free cheese, omit…

PK’s Potato And Bacon Tater Tots: Did Someone Say Panko?
I made these little bacon and potato tots for my young ones the other day and they demolished the lot. Not only was that a great testimonial but they are easy and fun to make too. Hot Tips: Make them in multiple batches as they freeze very well. You can spray them sparingly with oil…

Crumbed Baked Chicken Sticks
As a kid, one of my favourite treat meals was a large serve of Ingham’s Chicken Chippies doused in tomato sauce. Chicken chippies were chip shaped slices of chicken coated in breadcrumbs and then snap-frozen for retail sale. The advert was hilarious: I am not sure if you can still buy them but I now…

PK’s Baked Mashed Potato, Bacon and Cheese Balls
I normally have enough leftovers for at least one lunch when I cook dinner for my family. So you can imagine how good these potato balls are if I had to buy lunch at work the next day :). Really easy to make ahead of time and sort of healthy as they are baked and not shallow fried,…

Dr C’s Tandoori and Coriander Rissoles
Try my tandoori and coriander rissoles with chili and mint yoghurt. Eat them with salad or whack’em between two bits of toast with fresh spinach. Yum! Take say 500 g beef mince and combine with a good whack of tandoori paste, an egg, lots of breadcrumbs (say 2 cups), coriander sprigs and chopped spring onions.…
