Italian Menu
Breaded Eggplant
Served with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, these breaded eggplants are irresistible.
Mozzarella Balls
These mozzarella balls are a must-have appetizer when I make home pizza. While traditionally fried, I’ve found that using an air fryer gives them a healthier twist without compromising flavor
Fresh Mozzarella
Warm, tender, milky mozzarella is easier to make than you might think.
Caprese Salad
Caprese salad comes from the island of Capri in Italy, and captures the feeling of enjoying a long, lazy summer lunch while you are on vacation. This is an incredibly simple salad that's dependent on using the best quality ingredients.
Chicken Scarpariello
Traditional scarpariello — chicken sautéed in a tangy lemon glaze with bell pepper — is typically made with a whole chicken cut into pieces, then cooked on the stove for hours. To speed things up, we opt for faster-cooking boneless thighs and skip the bell pepper in favor of jarred Peppadews, a sweet-spicy pickled pepper.
