Teacher Jackie Apple

Dinners can be challenging—many of us are short on time and craving inspiration. Jackie Apple to the rescue! As a busy mom, Jackie has developed an extensive repertoire of ultra-satisfying recipes that are quick to prepare and full of great flavor.
Using her favorite kitchen workhorse, the sheet pan, Jackie will show you how to make 2 dinners: Roasted Chicken with pears and arugula, Spicy Lemon Garlic Oil you could enjoy on practically anything, and Ginger Chicken Thighs with cool, herbaceous Cucumber Cabbage Salad. She will also share her go-to method for making stovetop rice, a side dish that is well suited to so many menus.
Jackie has a knack for keeping things simple, and this class is no exception. She’ll teach you to put your trusty sheet pans to work with minimal effort and maximum meal payoff!

About the teacher

Jackie Apple

As a youngster, JACKIE APPLE loved hanging out in the family kitchen, sitting on the counter watching her mother prepare classic Argentine food. Throughout her youth, Jackie traveled often to Europe and South America. Some of her most vivid memories are of the flavorful foods created by her relatives and host family: cherry clafouti in Vichy, France; pasta alla norcina in Perugia, Italy; beef empanadas in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
In college and graduate school, Jackie cooked whenever possible. Friends always jumped when she offered to make a meal, and she even met her husband that way! Eventually, cooking on nights and weekends was not enough - Jackie enrolled at the Tante Marie Cooking School in San Francisco. There, despite stressing about every success and failure, Jackie had the time of her life. She knew then that the kitchen was THE place for her.
Jackie has been teaching cooking for more than 15 years, taking great pleasure in seeing students learn something new that they will share with others. Like many of her students, Jackie has a family to feed and a busy schedule. She understands the importance of creating recipes that can be made quickly and efficiently.
The most important message Jackie has for her students is “Just Cook!” You will be amazed at the dishes you can create for your family and friends.
