However, while I fix & sort out my schedule, I must apologize to my loyal readers who still visit my page and have shown their immense love over the years!

Creamy Tuscan Chicken Restaurant Style | Italian-American Style Tuscan Chicken

By: Priyanka

Creamy, cheesy and decadent, this restaurant style creamy Tuscan chicken screams holidays more than anything I have made recently and I am so glad I could bring this to you right on time!

If you are at the last leg of finalizing your holiday menu, I would strongly urge you to keep a spot for my classic restaurant style creamy Tuscan chicken in your list!

This creamy Tuscan chicken is a cheesy chicken recipe with a burst of freshness from spinach and fresh basil that is just perfect to serve over your favorite pasta and an ideal holiday meal for everyone!

This is also a good option for a make-ahead dish as this freezes very well! You just need to thaw and reheat to make the sauce melty and glossy again!

What is creamy Tuscan chicken?

Interestingly enough this creamy Tuscan chicken is not a traditional Tuscan recipe from Italy! Then why is it called Tuscan chicken? Fair question!

Upon reading more about this quirky recipe, I finally deduced that this creamy Tuscan chicken is a modern Italian-American dish, most likely developed in the United States!

The name β€œTuscan” chicken comes from the ingredients commonly associated with Tuscan-style cooking e.g. olive oil, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, leafy greens like fresh spinach & basil and Parmesan.

However, authentic Tuscan cuisine is usually lighter and not cream-based. The creamy version is more of an Italian-American or modern comfort-food creation.

But calling it β€œTuscan” chicken instantly evokes certain emotions within the food lovers and we all know how crucial the role of emotion is when it comes to food!

The warmth, countryside charm and Italian comfort, the qualities that foodies already loved, get instantly packed into that name inviting more and more food enthusiasts to try it and fall for it!

I use my air fryer daily to whip up my weekday dinners, which is mainly protein & salad on the side, as it hardly requires any prep and then everything is taken care of by the trusty air fryer.

So I keep playing up with the flavors, sometimes barely adding any spice; just aromatics & seasonings!

During one such experiment, this juicy air fryer chicken materialized when I was racing against time to join the next meeting!

The yogurt marinated chicken thighs came out so tender, juicy and flavorful even though I didn't use too many spices, that I was shook as soon as I took my very first bite!

Air Fryer Sesame Chicken for Weight Loss | Easy Crispy Sesame Chicken in Air Fryer

By: Priyanka

This air fryer sesame chicken has been a life changing discovery! Being an avid fan of Asian chicken recipes, I was badly missing them as they are mostly all deep-fried which I am avoiding due to my fatloss targets; but not any more thanks to this incredible air fryer sesame chicken recipe!

The air fryer sesame chicken is a simple & quick high-protein yet low-calorie recipe which can be relished as a fulfilling meal with rice or as a quick snack on its own while you reminisce the festive memories!

What is air fryer sesame chicken?

Sesame chicken is an Asian-cuisine-inspired recipe that was invented in North America and has become super popular thanks to its flavor, taste and ease of prep!

Now like any other Asian stir fried recipe, a typical sesame chicken is also fried in a generous amount of oil before being tossed in the flavorful sauce.

The sauce! Yes, that’s the USP of this classic sesame chicken!

To recreate that same incredibly mouthwatering saucy sesame chicken dish without the load of oil, I have this air fryer sesame chicken for you today!

About 4 to 5 servings of chicken is air fried in just a couple of tablespoons of oil which means you can enjoy this restaurant style air fryer sesame chicken at home absolutely guilt-free!

One small tweak I did in my sesame chicken sauce is that I have reduced the sweet element in it. Many sesame chicken recipes have a generous amount of honey in it which I have completely omitted.

During my short stay in the US a few years ago, I realized that the Asian/Chinese dishes are more on the sweeter side there which is not what I am very fond of and neither is my better half.

So I just used a small amount of brown sugar for just that subtle hint of sweetness which complements the savoriness and tartness beautifully.
