Cooking en papillote basically consists of cooking thanks to the steam and the juices retained in a wrapper that is applied to the food. It is a technique that works wonderfully on fish, vegetables and tender meats (such as poultry).

I think this recipe can easily become one of the household favorites. It's a very tasty, economical recipe and also very easy to prepare. Also, chicken is usually liked by both children and adults and is truly delicious with this sausage-and-mushroom meat stuffing. A flavorful combination that is also a seasonal dish. It's time to make the most of autumn!

Rabbit is one of my favorite meats, especially when we have barbecues at home. It's a white meat, low in fat and I find it very flavorful, especially when we help it with aromatics like rosemary and thyme. I also enjoy preparing it "al ajillo" (with garlic), with rice, or like today, with this Moroccan-style rabbit that almost cooks itself since I finished the cooking in the oven.

If we marinate tofu, its flavor changes radically and we can use it in many dishes while adding an extra boost of taste.

There are dishes that once you try them you can't live without, that's what happened to me when during a trip to Vietnam I tried for the first time a delicious salad called Bún bò xào.

The spiced chicken skewers with yogurt sauce I'm bringing you today are strong contenders to become the star dish of the summer. In fact, they already are in my home, but I'm sure they'll also become a fail-safe dish in yours… Want to know why?
