Ginger, peanut butter, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, chili paste, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil make up this wonderful dressing. What we love are the fried wontons tucked inside the chicken salad.
In this hearty chicken stoup, sturdy yellow-fleshed potatoes and corn both hold up wellto long cooking, while the sweet potatoeswhich fall apart fasterhelp thicken theextra-rich chicken broth. Toppings ofcubed avocados, sour cream and cilantroadd fresh flavors to this satisfying bowlful.
This is my favorite emergency meal, made almost entirely of pantry ingredients when a trip to the store has been missed or is out of the question for some reason.
Halibut cheeks are really delicious and super-easy to cook. Here they are pan-seared and served with a zingy orange sauce with Asian seasonings. Great with asparagus and jasmine rice for a light and tasty Spring dinner.
A tasty lime dressing, with cayenne and garlic added for kick, make this salad a bit different from the one above. Avocado too. And this salad doesn't need to sit in the frig, it can be served to four hungry people immediately.
