Easy Lemon Thyme Chicken Breasts with Beer

Easy Lemon Thyme Chicken Breasts with Beer

Looking for a simple, healthy dinner that still brings big flavour? This lemon thyme chicken checks all the boxes — light, fresh, and full of bright citrus and herb notes. The best part? A splash of beer in the marinade adds depth and character to an already easy weeknight winner. You can bake it in the oven or toss it on the grill, and either way, it pairs perfectly with a chilled glass of Bentstick Brewing’s Norwegian-style farmhouse ale: Uff-da….

Salmon with Pilsner Asian Glaze

Happy New Year! We are in a new decade, 2020, and it still feels futuristic to me. Also, the 90s being 20-30 years ago seems impossible… how did time fly and how am I this old?! I turn 40 this year, which is both very exciting and unbelievable to me. Not only do I not feel 40, I don’t act it! I don’t plan to ever act my age, to be honest. That’s one of my resolutions for 2020 –…

Kung Pao Beer Chicken

Kung Pao Beer Chicken

I love a good stir fry. It’s kind of my way of cleaning out the vegetable drawer in the fridge when there are peppers, celery, maybe some carrots or broccoli threatening to expire on me. I can quickly whip up a sauce, find a protein like chicken breasts in the freezer, and start a pot of rice, and voila, dinner is done! When thinking about a stir-fry sauce, I thought about how I could incorporate beer and then my stir…

Pale Ale Crispy Fried Chicken

Pale Ale Crispy Fried Chicken

Who doesn’t love crispy fried chicken? And even better than that is a Pale Ale Crispy Fried Chicken! Adding beer to a marinade of buttermilk and hot sauce helps with the tenderizing of the beer along with adding flavour, of course. I have used beer in marinating before with the Pale Ale Yogurt Marinated Chicken Breasts or the Honey Cream Ale Grilled Drumsticks. This Pale Ale Crispy Fried Chicken can be made into a chicken sandwich or a slider, but…

Okay, so it’s been a while since I have posted. Spring got away from me a little, but I have remained active on Instagram showing you what craft beers I have been trying out. One of the great beers I did try this spring, but waiting until now to post, was the Ten Peaks Pale Ale from Canmore Brewing Company.

Lager Beer and Pineapple Juice Chicken Tacos

Lager Beer and Pineapple Juice Chicken Tacos

I have made tacos, or taco-like dishes before, and a couple of times with beer. These are a little different in that I am using my Instant Pot to make the shredded tasty chicken part of the taco. And, of course, there is beer involved! These Lager Beer and Pineapple Juice Chicken Tacos were undeniably my favourite of the tacos I have done. They were juicy, full of flavour, and just down right addicting.
