Stir Fry – Beef, Chicken or Pork

Stir Fry – Beef, Chicken or Pork

Stir Fry has been part of Chinese cooking for centuries. Meat and vegetables are stirred or tossed in a small amount of oil while cooked at a high temperature in a wok. We love our Breville “the Hot Wok”. It heats up in a flash…

San J Teriyaki Chicken

San J Teriyaki Chicken

For an easy weeknight meal, we give the nod to San J Teriyaki Stir Fry & Marinade. It is one of our favourite Gluten Free Sauces. Marinate the chicken or *salmon for 20 – 30 minutes and grill or oven roast.

Whipped Feta and Roasted Tomatoes

Whipped Feta and Roasted Tomatoes

This is a perfect appetizer in any season. Roasting tomatoes elevates the flavour and served warm over the whipped Feta is brilliant. Do take the time to press the Feta or the spread will be too briny.

Halibut with Chili Garlic Vinaigrette and Wasabi Cream

Halibut is a firm fish with a mild taste, and so can stand up with Chili Garlic Sauce, Sriracha and Wasabi. Chili Garlic provides the fiery, roughly chopped spice while Sriracha is the smooth counter part. Use either or if you only have one in…

Stuffed Potatoes

Stuffed Potatoes

Stuffed Potatoes can literally be “stuffed” with anything. The potato and skin become not only part of the meal but a delivery system. The sky’s the limit to what you can put into the stuffed potato, but here is our classic potato filled with cream…

Chicken Parm Meatballs

Chicken Parm Meatballs

Chicken Parm/Parmesan most likely evolved from a classic Sicilian dish of fried eggplant smothered in tomato sauce and cheese, from people immigrating to North America. To make this a really quick weeknight dish, make the meatballs earlier in the day or have them ready to…
