Shrimp Fried Rice is one of our favorite dishes when we get take-out. After the success of our Japanese Steakhouse Fried Rice, we decided to tackle our other favorite fried rice recipe.

I was walking through the mall the other day when a random lady ran up to me and offered me some bourbon chicken. I usually do not take random food from strangers, but she looked like she worked at the restaurant at the food court so that was good enough for me. I am glad…
Dana and I love Chinese Takeout. However, the last time we ordered from our favorite joint we got sick. So we have halted on our orders. So I decided to try to make one of our favorite dishes at home. Beef with String Beans is simple, delicious and could not be that hard to replicate….
I am always looking for new ways to cook beef.  I have made stir-frys’ in the past but none of them were Szechwan.  What is Szechwan Cuisine?  Well Szechwan means originating from the Sichuan Province of southwestern China.  I is known for  bold flavors, particularly the pungency and spiciness resulting from liberal use of garlic and chili peppers¹. This stir-fry…

The other day I went to the store and they had sirloin steaks on sale. So I picked a few up. I wanted to try something new so I decided to make Asian Style Beef Kabobs. I wanted to do a skewer that was reminiscent of a Stir-fry. So I skewered broccoli, whole water chestnuts,…
I wanted to make a fried Udon Dish, but I could not find Udon noodles for the life of me. I checked the stores close to me and the closest thing I could find was Chow Mein Noodles. I know they are not even close, but they worked great. If you can find Udon feel…
The other day I was craving some Chinese takeout, but figured that I should make my own. So I did. I made a healthier version of Kung Pao Chicken. Normally the chicken is deep fried, but to change things up a bit, I decided to stir-fry the chicken. The recipe came out super tasty. Serve…
Last week I visited the Upper King Street Farmers Market again. This time I picked up some Free-Range Pork from Cibola Farms. I love pork so I scoured the market for something else that I could eat with it. Then I found some fresh Broccoli and a brown onion. The perfect base for a Pork…
Spring is here and it is time to do a little spring cleaning. So, today I decided to clear out my pantry. What is the best way to clear out a pantry you ask? Why it is a stir-fry. You can throw in whatever veggies, meat or random ingredients that you have. This is slight…
