"Pecan sandies combine the quintessentially toasty Southern taste of pecans with buttery shortbread. In this recipe, chopped toasted pecans are dotted throughout the cookie, which has a pleasant, tender crumb."  Comment from Southern Living

One of my favorite cookies!  It will be my pleasure to make these for the first time.  I love the cookies from the grocery store, so I am going to super love these homemade cookies.

Chicken Marsala

"What Is Chicken Marsala?

Chicken Marsala isn’t a traditional Italian dish. Rather, it's an Italian American dish, crafted by immigrants who were looking to recreate their favorite meals in their new homeland. Since lamb and pork weren’t readily available, scallops or scaloppini ("thin cuts of meat") were made from chicken. 

The chicken is cooked in a hot skillet with a bit of oil or butter and then served with a pan sauce made with Marsala wine. Today, most chicken Marsala is served with pasta, but risotto, mashed potatoes, or roasted potatoes are also excellent accompaniments."  Comment from Simply Recipes 

This recipe will be a first for me since I've never had Chicken Marsala.  It looks and sounds delicious.
