I saw the episode “Chicken Never Tasted This Good” the food is absolutely delicious, but your Italian translation is totally off

Can’t wait for first of the season cauliflower to
show up at the local farmers mkt…your lasagne
w/ chicken & cauliflower had me heading for the
kitchen to try my hand at this scrumptious recipe.
Not overly concerned w/ your translation skills…your culinary acumen makes it a non-issue!
Ciao bella

I followed the written directions only to click on the video AFTER everything was done and in the pan. I double checked and then clicked on the video. No where in the written directions does it say to stream the cauliflower. Only in the video. Hoping mine turns out ok now…

Absolutely loved it. My family and the guys at my fire station loved it! I had to make it after watching your show. Thanks!

I roasted the cauliflower tossed with EVOO and then cut up. I also added pancetta as everything is better with bacon — very tasty and simple recipe. Delizioso!

Followed the recipe to a T. Mine came out very runny. I think reducing the milk to 4 cups might be better. This is very flavorful. I wish the Nutrition equivalents and calories were available to see what we are eating.

This is delicious! I made the sauce with a 50/50 ratio of chicken broth and milk as I was low on milk. Assembled and refrigerated overnight. Nice light lasagna served with rapini and fried peppers with fresh bread.
