We are always looking for NEW and enjoyable meal ideas to serve our families, I understand that because I’m the same. For years I would be looking and trying different recipes until I got the ones our family enjoyed. We are true Newfoundlanders for our cultural foods, but we do like cooking other cultural meals to enjoy. This recipe is one I would make on our outside grill in the summer and fall, having meals outside is comforting and nice family time. You can make this recipe your own by changing the seasonings and veggies our family likes and enjoys, the ones i’m sharing with you today is our families favourite. Before you go don’t forget to leave me a message and please watch our video you will love this recipe.
Oh, my goody! This is very much like what my Mom (who sadly and quite suddenly passed away just last month) used to make with just a slight twist. She placed the chicken and veggies in an oven pan, smothered with her choice of BBQ sauce (Diana’s was her fave) then covered and baked it til done. She often did that in the cold winter, hence no BBQ.
I can tell you, she would have loved yours! I especially love the corn and tortillas on the side, too!
We grew up north east of Halifax and your recipes always remind me of home.
Thank you soo much for sharing – and for making me think of my beautiful Mom – I miss her so! – but your food feeds my soul. Always has.
Many hugs from Montreal,
Heather
