Palm Beach Chicken (Chicken in Citrus Cream Sauce)

April 10, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Many years ago, I was flipping through a Junior League cookbook from Palm Beach and I read the title for Lily Pulitzer Chicken. Before I even glanced at the recipe, I envisioned bright rounds of citrus like a Lily Pulitzer fabric. The recipe however was chicken in potato chip crumbs with dried herbs and wine. I think perhaps it is a recipe the actual Lily Pulitzer made not one … [Read more...] about Palm Beach Chicken (Chicken in Citrus Cream Sauce)

Bacon Creamed Zipper Peas

July 17, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon 1 Comment

Rotund little zipper peas are possibly my favorite field pea, sweetly round jewels of flavor. I just love the little creamy pop of summer in every bite.

I absolutely discovered this dish because of the name. I first saw it on a pub menu in London and had to ask. After it was described, my dining companion switched his order to it and we both relished bites. But I had to know where the name came from, so I soon set out to do some research. This was many years ago and the internet was not quite so helpful, but eventually I … [Read more...] about Dublin Lawyer (Shrimp in Irish Whiskey Cream Sauce)

Fresh Fig Mousse

August 7, 2016 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I adore figs, and during their short growing season here, I really try to make the most of them. I make jars and jars of Fig, Bourbon and Vanilla Bean Jam. It is one of my signature preserves now, one people always ask me for. My Fresh Fig Cake with Buttermilk Glaze is a summer favorite as well – it’s a wonderful way to incorporate figs into baking. And of course, I eat the … [Read more...] about Fresh Fig Mousse

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
