This stew is great for St. Patrick's Day. The mixture of the beef and Guinness is awesome! I usually add more beer than the recipe calls for. Serve with mashed potatoes.
Got some brown bananas you need to use immediately? You could labor for hours over banana bread, OR you could make these healthy, light, and fluffy Banana Bread Oat Pancakes--they're ready in a flash and crazy delicious!
Breading the flesh side of the fish allows the skin to crisp up on the other side. Serve with Creamed Spinach and Mushrooms and Steamed Sugar Snap Peas.
Currant-Glazed Lamb Chops with Pistachio Couscous is definitely a company-worthy entree, but it's also easy on the cook. The slow-cooked flavor of these lamb chops will have guests thinking you've been in the kitchen all day--not 20 minutes.
Shrimp and Grits, a low-country favorite, makes a hearty, one-dish dinner and is table-ready in 30 minutes. Sustainable Choice: Buy Pacific white shrimp farmed in recirculating systems or inland ponds.
Note: I prefer using Carnaroli rice for its slightly longer grains and firmer texture. Feel free to use any risotto-style rice like Arborio or Vailone Nano. About the author: J. Kenji Lopez-Alt is the Chief Creative...
