Sara's Weeknight Meals

Which Came First?

Chicken or eggs? We love them both and Sara’s got some amazing recipes to make them shine, starting with a chicken paillard, pounded thin, sauteed and slathered in a compound date butter. Baked Chicken thighs are pointed up with artichoke hearts and the acid of homemade lemon pickles. Then a French chef shows Sara a simple galette of ham and eggs wrapped in pastry.
