Crispy Roasted Lemon Pepper Chicken
The Baby boy loves chicken skin, really crispy chicken skin. He also loves lemon. I wanted a special meal for him once he came from the hospital. Not that the hospital food was all that bad, as a matter of fact the only bad food he had was the crispy chicken. Which wasn’t crispy and […]

Jicama and Mango Salad
In my last post McGyver made Pierno De Peurco Rellena, a fabulous rolled and stuffed pork loin. He used to make Pierno De Peurco Rellana for all of the H.O.G. members in Panama. The dish is labor intensive, and rich with flavor. I figured the least I could do was to make all the sides. […]
