Aloha! I much prefer this dish grilled versus baked. The delicious char adds an amazing nuanced flavor that you just can’t get in the oven. If you’re grilling it, simply cook the rice and vegetables together with all the other yummy seasonings and toss the chicken on the grill cranked up to medium-high heat forContinue […]
This is by far my favorite breakfast hash brown recipe! It’s hearty, flavorful with a sweet maple twist. It goes amazingly with darn near any breakfast. My personal favorites are fried eggs, French Toast, Blueberry Banana Pancakes, or Breakfast Casseroles. This recipe works best with pure, authentic maple syrup but you can substitute the mapleContinue […]

Freezer Pork Coconut Curry Spices: 1 Tablespoon Curry Powder1 teaspoon Turmeric½ teaspoon Cinnamon½ teaspoon GroundContinue […]
Taco Monday, Hawaiian style! Chicken Huli Huli Tacos with Pineapple Pico de Gallo and Wasabi Mayo. I thought I’d made way too much Hawaiian Mac Salad, but it vanished. You can bake, grill or cook the chicken in a slow cooker if you don’t have a smoker, but I strongly recommend smoking it. 2Continue […]
I found a really good deal on chicken drumsticks so I snagged a pack. The meat was so incredibly tender and delicious! This recipe would also work great with chicken thighs or wings. Chicken: 4 lbs Chicken Drumsticks 1 teaspoon Chinese Five Spice 1 teaspoon Turmeric 1 Tablespoon Smoked Paprika 1 teaspoon Ancho Chile PowderContinue […]
And in this corner we have the Reuben! Another sandwich that I’v been wanting to try for years! Went a bit unconventional and added some pickled red onions for color and because I thought it’d compliment the Sauerkraut. I think the Reuben has a more balanced flavor. The slight sweetness from the Russian Dressing makesContinue […]
Just what you need on a cold, dreary day like today. Beef and Vegetable Stew with Fry Bread. Things are kinda tough right now, so my Beef and Vegetable Stew is more like Vegetable and Beef Stew. I love vegetables, though so it all worked out! 8 oz. leftover Steak 1 cup Onion; chopped 3Continue […]
I finally felt well enough to eat again and my amazing mom dropped off all the ingredients to make Miso Soup! Gallons of Miso Soup. I made a simple Spicy Chicken Fried Rice to go with it. ½ cup Bonito Flakes 6 cups Water ½ cup Green Onions; chopped 7 oz firm Tofu; pressed andContinue […]
Tandoori Chicken is kind of a pain to make at home if you don’t have a Tandoori oven, but dang it’s so worth it! The smoked paprika is key for the traditional tandoori smokiness. So delicious! Bone in-skin on chicken works the best, but this recipe also works well with chicken breast for a lighter option.Continue […]

Happy Fourth of July! I have to work today, so I can’t make it to the family cookout, but I can still enjoy a nice meal! Kinda sick of burgers for now so I wanted to do something a bit more original. I had an elk tenderloin that sounded delicious! Served with Garlicky Mashed Potatoes,Continue […]
Decided to try and make sous-vide Satay Pork Skewers for dinner the other night. Shrimp Fried Rice and Vietnamese Spring Rolls on the side! It turned out to be so delicious! The pork was so tender! 2 lbs Pork Tenderloin; cubed 1 teaspoon Salt ½ teaspoon Pepper ½ teaspoon Onion Powder 1 teaspoon Lemongrass; finelyContinue […]
We have another winner! I was afraid that the chicken was going to dry out because we had to put dinner on hold for a little over an hour, but I dropped the heat to 250°F, then bumped the temp to 425°F to crisp up the skin. This is how I normally make it withContinue […]
