Of course you can! Use in any recipe calling for fresh mint. If a recipe calls for dried mint, use 3x’s as much. (1 tsp dried mint = 3 tsp (or 1 Tbsp) fresh)

Yes, I made a really good mint apple cranberry chicken and all I did was break up the mint and add it to the sauce to cook it. It was DELICIOUS!!! I bought the mint from my local Hannaford’s produce section.
Hope this helps…
