This recipe was adapted from Korean Roasted Chicken Thighs, but I didn’t have 1 hour to bake the chicken, so cooking on stove top was the way to go, the dish turned out real flavorful, little girl kept on telling me she enjoyed the way I cooked the chicken tonight, so I guess whether you…

So out of all the stew/braised meat dishes, this one is hubby’s favorite. It’s actually an old Chinese recipe that’s passed on through the generations, and my Mom makes it often also. I’ve put a little twist on it last night and the result turned out so well, so below is what I did. Ingredients…
Beef & Chinese Broccolli
I thought about stir frying beef and onions (using my Mom’s recipe), but had Gailan (Chinese Broccoli) in the fridge and didn’t want them to go bad, so using the same marinate as the onion beef, this turned out quite well also. Marinate: 2 T soysauce 1t olive oil a dash of pepper 1t rice…
Asian broiled tilapia
This is definitely one of those easy, healthy and delicious dishes that I would make again and again. The lovely green vegetable is from my Mama’s organic garden, the hot fish wilted the leaves a bit, and the sauce made a lovely salad dressing for it! 1/4 cup soy sauce 2 tablespoons sugar 3 large garlic cloves, minced (about…
Ginger Chicken
Previously I’ve given ginger chicken a try, but this one is a little different, it calls for whole chicken thighs, and there’s actually quite a bit of process going on, I was a little worries about the dish being too salty, so there was not kosher salt rub on the chicken directly. Next time I…
Asian Chicken Thighs
I am getting more comfortable with mixing ingredients and discover what works and what doesn’t. Tonight I combined 2 different chicken thigh recipes and made it my own. 5 chicken thighs (about 1-3/4 pounds), skin removed 2 tablespoon of oil 5 dried mushroom (soak in hot water) 1/3 cup mushroom water 1/4 cup packed brown…
Mama’s cooking
This is what my Mama cooked yesterday for my little niece’s birthday party. Chinese people usually serve noodles for birthday, since they are long which means longevity and long life!
Hot & Sweet Chicken Thigh
This dish was fairly simple and inexpensive, I can’t believe how flavorful it turned out. The white stuff on the bottom is rice noodles, mixed it with the left over sauce and little girl ate it up! Ingredients * 5 bone-in chicken thighs (about 1-3/4 pounds), skin removed * 5 teaspoons Crisco® Pure Olive Oil…
Chestnut Chicken
This has become one of my favorite dish to cook on week nights. Older sis brought up she cooks it for her family, super simple and the kids love it, I was sold after 1 try, since the meat melts right off the bones with hardly any efforts on my part. 6 Dried black mushrooms…
Green Onion Pancakes (Semi Homemade way)
Bought some frozen green onion pancakes from the Asian market today, fried them up in a little bit of olive oil, this particular brand is pretty right on about the flavor, and nice chewy texture. High recommended (I-Mei Foods)
Curry Chicken
Bought a box of Hot Vermont Curry (House Sauce Mix Brand) at the Asian market a couple of months back, never remembered to use it. Since I didn’t have much to work with today, decided to defrost some chicken breast to tes this out. Directions: Cut meat or chicken, onion, potatoes and carrot into…
Mom’s Cooking
Every other Sundays I bring my little girl to the Gramps to visit. Both of my sisters also bring their children for what we would like to call “Zoo Day at Grandma and GrandPa’s”. The term “Zootourage” has been invented to describe the kids. My mom would cook a feast for all of us to…
