The ready-to-eat tender white meat chicken pieces are crispy and tossed in an addictive sticky glaze. Here we pair them with a fresh smashed cucumber and orange salad and steamed brown rice.

Tanji’s Wine Finds: Domaine Drouhin Rose Rock Pinot Noir

Did you know that May is Oregon Wine Month? In Tanji’s opinion, the Willamette Valley is one of the best regions for domestic Pinot Noir and that’s especially true for the Domaine Drouhin Pinot Noir ($35). You’ll get hints of dark cherries and blackberries, but also a touch of earthy minerality. This wine will pair with everything, from roast chicken to grilled seafood and spiced pork. Pick it up at your local H-E-B and try it for yourself!
