On a cold winter night, a hot and comforting chicken dish is the perfect way to warm up. From Peruvian Roast Chicken to Filipino-Style Chicken Adobo, this flavorful recipe collection won't disappoint.
This is my take on Pollo a la Brasa, the delicious spit-roasted chicken made popular by so many Peruvian restaurants. The chicken is marinated in olive oil, lime juice, garlic and spices, and then oven-roasted until tender, juicy and crisp-skinned. The green sauce, which gets it's color from cilantro and jalapeno peppers, is downright addictive -- I guarantee you'll want to put it on everything. GET THE RECIPE
In the Philippines, "adobo" refers to the process of simmering meat in a tangy vinegar and soy based sauce flavored with garlic, bay leaves and black pepper. This version is made with coconut milk, which tames the vinegar and adds body to the sauce. GET THE RECIPE

Chicken Marbella is probably the most famous dish to come out of the beloved Silver Palate Cookbook by Julie Rosso and the late Sheila Lukins. I grew up eating this dish -- in fact, my mother still makes it on holidays and special occasions. The chicken is marinated in garlic and herbs, and then baked with wine, brown sugar, prunes, capers and green olives. GET THE RECIPE
These light and elegant meatballs topped with a tangy and sweet glaze are made with ground chicken, which is a great alternative to ground beef and so much more flavorful than ground turkey. I typically serve them as a main course with buttered noodles and a vegetable but you can also serve them as an hors d'oeuvre -- just make them smaller and spear with toothpicks. GET THE RECIPE
