This is one of the reasons why I call this blog 'All STAR Recipes' because I love the Food Network and the wonderful chefs that inspire me there. I will include my favorite star recipes from time to time on the blog, with my personal twist on them as an option.
This is one of my favorite Rachael Ray recipes! If you like creamy, citrus flavoring- you'll love this dish! As a chef, I had to add my own twist to it and you'll see that listed below in red. Enjoy!
