So Vegetarian is almost an unheard of word in the Philippines, but while in college I still wanted the Filipino tastes while trying to be vegetarian. Since all of the recipes I know had meat (even the veggies are cooked in pork) I had to come up with some of my own. This is one of those. Tofu sinigang apparently isn't unheard of in the Philippines but this recipe came out of trial and error. The soup is pretty sour cooked to quot;full strengthquot; but can make a pretty nice fast meal with rice.
This recipe really satisfies my craving for Chinese food. I serve it over rice and steamed vegetables on the side. The sauce makes just enough to glaze the chicken. I usually double or even triple the sauce recipe to have enough to pour over our rice and veggies. It is a nice low-fat alternative to the restaurant-style Sesame Chicken.
Browning the beef in a skillet before putting it in the roasting pan is the key to deliciousness in this smart stew. Cook it low and slow for juicy tenderness.
Hearty ingredients and a slow simmer add depth of flavor to this classic stew. Our version is not only satisfying but can help keep your healthy eating plan on track.
A little heat, a little cool and a lot of Southwest flavor wrapped up and ready for a fork. If variety is your thing, try it one week with beef, the next with pork.
Chicken takes a cue (or is it BBQ?) from pork and gets fork-tender, shredded and piled onto a crunchy roll. Eat it hot while the cheese is good and melty.
