from Real SimpleIt may not look like much, but for the first time in a long time Van gobbled every single bite of a meal Jim and I were having. No last minute peanut butter and jelly, just this Hamburger with Lemon and Soy Sauce. You don’t know what a big deal this is.
I cooked his all the way through and broke up the meat while leaving the medium rare, added caramelized onions and a touch of Sriracha to the adults.
from Martha StewartSeafood in Seattle is great. I’ve never enjoyed so many simply prepared fish dishes before. When something’s fresh in the market, I just look up an easy prep and enjoy.
One such quick meal is Martha’s Citrus Soy Glazed Black Cod. Lime gives the glaze a unique and delicious tang.
From EpicuriousThe original recipe is called “Spicy” Thai Steamed Mussels, but this is completely mild. Not bland, mind you, just not spicy.
It is flavorful and super easy once you’re past the tedious de-bearding and cleaning stage.
Don’t forget bread to mop up the fragrant broth.
Momofuku SpecialtyThis pork ssam may very well be the best meal I’ve ever made.
Easy too, you just need to set aside 12 hours (only 6 of which you even need to be awake for).
Chang might be a culinary great but I prefer myself as chef. I won’t get all dicky about taking photos of the food and the cost was a fraction of what I’d spend in the restaurant.
Thanks to Mike for the special sauce ingredients and buns.
from Simply RecipesI know, I make a lot of these Asian ground chicken recipes. What can I say? It’s my thing.
This Three Tea Cup Chicken is subtle and a little sweet. And if you don’t share my crazy enthusiasm for ground chicken, the original recipe calls for sliced anyway.
Easy, mild and sophisticated.
from Food and WineShaking beef is something I always jump to order the rare times I find it on a menu so finding a easy tasty recipe was excellent luck.
The pea shoot salad adds much needed green to a meaty dish.
from Serious EatsI’m very wimpy when it comes to anything labor intensive in the kitchen.
So a roasted whole cut up chicken sounded daunting but, really this Roast Chicken with Spicy Hoisin Glaze is one of the simplest things we’ve made.
You just need to allow about 30-40 minutes for cooking.
We enjoyed the first round with a baked yam (big and delicious this time of year) and I used the left over meat atop some ramen with scallions. Yum.
from Food and WineI make a lot of stir frys so finding this Chicken Papaya Stir Fry recipe was exciting for the list of unusual ingredients.
I wasn’t sure of the papaya and orange juice would make for a far too sweet dish, but with the salty seasonings and poblanos, they were mellow and delicious.
from Serious EatsThis excellent and affordable recipe for Gai Pad Krapow, also known as Thai Basil Chicken is totally superb!
The rice, the fish sauce, the basil and the fried egg combines to create a very complex but well balanced dish.
No one would believe how easily it all comes together. This is one I’ll bookmark to make over and over in the future.
Thanks again, Serious Eats.
from Serious EatsI love crab, I love fried rice, so this Crab Fried Rice recipe was a guaranteed hit in my house.
