Spicy Maple Korean Fried Chicken Pancakes – Pancake Day – Leels Cooks

It’s Pancake Day! Apparently Canadians are supposed to celebrate this as well but I’ve never <_< I make and eat pancakes pretty often so I wanted to do something different. Since chicken and waffles are a thing, as are chicken and pancakes. I thought I could bring my own twist to this 😀 Fluffy pancakes with, sweet, sticky, spicy chicken on top – trust me you’re going to love this. Pancakes: I always use the martha stewart pancake recipe, it’s easy, basic and never goes wrong. 1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled) 2 tablespoons sugar. 2 teaspoons baking powder. … Read more

Leftover Chicken Lentil Taco Soup – Leels Cooks

I know the obvious answer to “what to do with leftover taco ingredients?” is to make more tacos, but sometimes I like to switch it up. I’m a huge fan of challenging myself by trying to find something entirely different I can make up with whatever ingredients I have on hand. I had made burrito/taco rice bowls last night and thought I would throw together an easy soup out of the leftovers. You can do this with a lot of different meals so feel free to get creative with it. (creative means throwing random things into a pot and hoping it … Read more

Facts About Costco’s Rotisserie Chicken You Never Knew

If you’re a Costco member, then it’s never a bad time to remind you why picking up a rotisserie chicken is always a good bet. The spit-roasted birds are great to have on hand when you don’t feel like doing the whole cooking rigamarole. There isn’t much to crack in terms of the whole bird’s appeal with shoppers. Tender, fall-off-the-bone meat, a golden skin that crackles and shines. They’re simply handy for on-the-fly dinners or as short-cuts to quick enchiladas or stews, and the price— oh boy, the price — is a downright bargain … Read more

Chicken Karaage – Leels Cooks

I had a huuuge craving for chicken karaage so I went out of my way to make it as close to authentic I could (without the sake). Chicken thighs and potato starch are a must. The fattier thigh meat holds up better to frying than breast meat and is significantly more flavourful. The potato starch makes the chicken crispier and adds a delicious flavour. Highly recommended for this recipe, and I personally wouldn’t make it without. You can also use corn starch or regular flour in a pinch but it wont have that crunch!You can find potato starch at most … Read more

Mazeudon with Chicken & Miso Butter – Leels Cooks

Maze-what you say? I recently went on a bit of a vacation back to the motherland (Vancouver, BC Canada) and tried a dish called Mazesoba at Kokoro Tokyo Mazesoba in downtown Vancouver.  It’s a relatively new dish (not that new), and is only just arriving to some places in North America. My first one! Noodles, chashu pork, green onion, garlic, chinese chives, nori and dried fish powder. #yolkporn What is it? The name basically means mixed noodles, called either abura soba or mazesoba, (mazemen or mazeudon if you’re calling out specific types). Noodles, generally thick, served with a variety of … Read more

Greek Chicken One Pan Dinner – Leels Cooks

One pot/sheet pan meals have been on my blog “to-do” list for a while, I asked on instagram what people wanted to see and was asked to make one so here we are! There are a million similar recipes to this, but this one is my version. I tried to make it in as few steps as I could, but still trying to allow each ingredient to shine. Sometimes one pan meals meld together a little too much and everything is a bit samey. Tender savoury potatoes, juicy herbed chicken and some bright roasted vegetables topped with feta. Lots of … Read more

Chicken Katsu Onigirazu – Leels Cooks

If you like sushi or onigiri, you’ll like onigirazu! Just a different iteration of similar ingredients, pretty much a sushi sandwich surrounded by nori. These are easy to make and the varieties are limited only to what you can think up. I’ve been making these for my husband’s lunch bentos and quick lunches for myself. You can absolutely prepare these the night ahead as well, but I wouldn’t go any further, rice and refrigeration don’t play nice together unfortunately. This takes some effort and I’ve included the instructions on how to make the chicken, but it’s completely acceptable and encouraged … Read more

Chicken Liver Mousse (Or French Pâté If You Prefer)

There was a time in my life when I didn’t love to cook. Or rather I didn’t yet know that I loved to cook. But I did love to entertain. However, in those days “entertaining” rarely meant a dinner party. Who in their right mind would devote most of an evening to staying at home? Especially when big city camaraderie beckoned. No, in those days “entertaining” meant inviting one or two friends to pop into my tiny studio apartment on the edge of West Hollywood before we went out on a night of youthful carousing. On these nights it was common for me to stop at Trader … Read more
