1.\u00a0Creamy Mussel Soup<\/a><\/h3>\n

If you can\u2019t fly to Paris, this flavorful soup<\/a> is sure to flex your French cooking muscles. In this recipe, the broth calls for dry white wine, like a Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Gris, to balance the spicy and savory flavors of the chili and garlic. Note that Pinot Grigio has a more full-bodied, spicier flavor than Pinot Gris, which is lighter-bodied and has a fruity, floral aroma. Sprinkle some fresh parsley over the soup once the mussels are cooked. You\u2019ll know when they are ready when their shells start to open. Then, grab some toasted sourdough bread and dip!

7.\u00a0Balsamic Fig Chicken Marsala<\/a><\/h3>\n

The sweetness of the figs comes through beautifully in the balsamic glaze.
