Hi there –
Great recipes. Even though I marinated the chicken for a few hours, the marinade did not penetrate to add enough flavor. I will use more adobo sauce next time around. The mashed potatoes were good, but the kicker was the corn. Adding the honey was a nice tough.

Do you cook the corn prior to making the sweet sauteed corn or do you just slice off the kernels raw? Thanks!

HI, I made the chicken and the corn tonight. The corn was delicious. The chicken I didn’t grill, I just made it on the stovetop in a regular pan and I used split breasts. I LOVED the sauce but I wanted more of it on the chicken. I am probably going to put the sauce and chicken in the crock pot next time and serve over veggies. (I love, love, love my crockpot and often try to find uses for it). I am planning to make the chicken salad tomorrow. I might cut some of the mayo with yogurt though, we’ll see. Thanks for some great ideas in recipes!!

I made this meal tonight. It was a big hit! I didn’t add the adobo sauce to the potatoes, though. I never thought to use the mixer to make the mashed potatoes….real creamy and smooth. The honey in the corn was a good idea. Thanks again.

I made the corn last night and my husband was skeptical at first because of the honey, but he LOVED it! Thanks!

I was just thinking of what to make my husband for dinner on Sunday (even though he’s not a father yet!) This looks perfect!

LOVE both the bachelorette and Food Network Star. (I think you should audition next season…).

Have you seen adobo sauce at Trader Joes?

Hi DM,
Look in the Mexican isle by all the salsas, enchilada sauce, jalapenos etc. Look for a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Use the sauce that's in that can. Enjoy.

Thanks My Sweet and Saucy

Thanks Emiline! I love peach too, and Go Stephanie! I hope she wins the show!
