I partnered with Lenox on this post to share this beautiful flavor combo on these colorful plates. The new Pompeii Blu™ Collection by artist Michael Wainwright, inspired by Michael’s love of playfully layering textures and mixing patterns. A versatile and accessible collection made of durable stoneware, it’s dishwasher, and microwave safe for everyday use. Inspired by the patterns and designs on the ceramic tile floors in Pompeii, each piece shows Michael’s hand-brushed cobalt lines and gold accents. When combined, the patterns tell a beautiful mix-and-match story–and I am all about mixing and matching my plates. Get yourself a new set of plates for a beautiful table setting and impress your friends and family with this meal.

Inspired by this collection, I wanted to bring colors and vibrancy and freshness to the dish. Visiting the farmers market this weekend was my big inspiration for this yummy fall dish. I chose some beautiful grapes, apples, potatoes, herbs and kale. The rest you can easily get at your favorite grocery store. To create this farm-to-table meal, gather all your ingredients and let’s cook together.

The chicken is cooked in one pan while the potatoes are boiling in the other. Make the salad first, then prep the rest. Grab a few friends to help you put together a lovely meal, pop a bottle of wine, turn on some music and get cooking.

Bring some fun color and pattern to your table. Gather your friends and family around the table and enjoy a great farm to table dinner.

Try this tip to get crispy chicken skin :

  1. Sear the chicken first to get a nice golden color.
  2. Once seared, stick a slice of butter under the skin.
  3. Bake to perfection with the addition of thyme, salt and olive oil.

Have you ever added grapes to your chicken when roasting it? It’s so good. The perfect combination of sweet and savory, best of both worlds. Perfect for weeknights, but hearty enough for a Sunday night dinner served alongside your favorite sides. If you’ve never roasted grapes let me just tell you that it’s something you must do. Grapes are amazing to pair with other foods like cheese. But when roasted, they caramelize and their sweet flavor is intensified. I love pairing roasted grapes with savory flavors like fresh thyme, balsamic vinegar, and cheese. Adding it to this chicken dish makes it more elevated in flavors for sure. Can’t wait for you to try this.
