Had some turkey breast cutlets......pepper and salted them, dipped in flour, egg and breaded them. Fried them up in butter, with fresh garlic and fresh parsley.
Served them with a nice tossed salad and baked dinner croissants.
Very simple, yummy and pretty quick!
Ginger-scallion chicken over white rice with a side of fresh, steamed broccoli and corn.
Haha since I've gotten a few requests for the recipe, here it is for the ginger-scallion chicken:
1 pack skinless-boneless chicken breasts
1 cup corn starch, placed in a separate bowl
1-2 oz ginger, sliced
3 stalks scallions, cut into 1-2 inch pieces
Salt and pepper to taste
1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized chunks
2. Coat with a dusting of corn starch by dredging it around
3. Heat up oil in wok until slightly smoking, use liberal amounts of this to prevent the corn starch from soaking it all up later and burning
4. Toss in chicken chunks and stir fry. (Note: A high chance of some of the cornstarch flaking off and sticking to your spatula but simply wipe it off and throw the excess residue away and continue)
5. Add salt and pepper to your taste
6. When chicken is half-cooked (white on the outside and pink on the inside), add in ginger slices
7. Stir-fry until fully cooked (about 10 minutes from the time you throw in the ginger slices)
8. About 30 seconds before you plate the chicken, toss in the scallions and stir fry until the green pieces have turned a deep green (but not wilted)
9. Serve on your favorite white plate, for presentation purposes.
pinto beans with ham hocks, cornbread and collard greens. Ironically, Collard is my middle name, and nooooooo, I was not named after the green, its a family surname. still not feeling well, so comfort food it is!
I tried something different the other night. I made a real simple tamale pie, there was a lot left so next night I just scraped most of the corn meal topping off, put the tamale pie filling in a deep sauce pan, poured one can of chicken stock and about 2 cups of water, depending on how much "filling" was left...and let it cook on low for about half hour to 45 minutes. My family LOVED it. I shredded some cheddar cheese on top of each bowl and you can toss some frito's in. INSTANT Mexican soup! My daughter even put a can of beans in it for lunch the next day. There was none left!
I buy a ton of organic carrots every week, they get used in everything from juice to salad to cakes to stews.
One really easy fun dish is to peel the carrots - then keep using the peeler to make ribbons of carrot. These can be eaten raw with salads or as a side vegetable, or blanch/steam/microwave and serve hot. Yum! Sprinkle some ginger soy dressing, sesame seeds, crushed peanuts for a fab asian touch...
My kids love wraps (flour tortillas) and I find that grated carrot goes fab with any filling - chicken, ground beef, cheese, crispy bacon, cream cheese, hummous, tuna.......
Buy a bag of washed spinach leaves and add a few raw ones to every meal.
Great recipes on here plus it will make you smile!
Tonight we are having pork ribs and mac and cheese and jalapeno corn bread and cole slaw while we have some friends over to watch the college national football championship. My bf spent a few hours yesterday making his grandpa's BBQ sauce and today he is going to slow cook the ribs in the sauce.......I can't wait to get home from work today. It is nice having something to look forward to on a Monday!
RDSlots...thanks you for that recipe....I have been looking everywhere for a "Shephards" Pie recipe.
There is a place in Newport Rhode Island called Buskers who serves a pie like that and your recipe is very similar to it.
