2. Japanese Steak House Specialties- Jarrett Willis

White Sauce-

This has to be made 1 day in advance in order for the flavors to all release into each other; if you use this immediately after preparation, it will NOT taste the same. If you have some mason jars, it will keep in the fridge for about 1.5-2 weeks, although it probably won’t last that long. This recipe makes about1-1/2 to 1-2/3 cups of white sauce. You should just be able to double, triple, etc. the recipe to make more at once. Also, take it out of the fridge a couple of hours before you serve it, as it’s best at room temperature instead of cold. I'm pretty sure I've gotten this dead on, but please send me some input after you try it...I'm always looking to improve!


Ingredients:

1-1/4 Cup Mayo

1/4 Cup Water

1-1/4 tsp. Tomato Paste

1-1/4 tsp. Butter (melted)

1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder

1 tsp. Sugar

1/4 tsp. Paprika
1/8 tsp. Cayenne Pepper Powder (you can make this 1/4 tsp. if you’d like to add some extra kick, but be very careful, this stuff gets hot fast.)


Mix all of the ingredients together with a hand mixer or a whisk until smooth/runny (an electric hand mixer makes this MUCH easier, especially in larger amounts). Place this in a covered container or an air-tight jar (for longer keeping), and store in the fridge over night before using. Remove from fridge about 2.5 hours before serving so that it will be room temperature.

Japanese-Style Rice:

Ingredients:


Rice

1/4 cup Soy Sauce

1/4 cup Mirin (or Rice Wine Vinegar if you don’t have the Mirin)

1.5 tsp Sesame Seed Oil
Water

Put the rice (I use Nishiki Premium Grade Rice) in the rice cooker with the suggested about of water for the amount of rice you are cooking. This should be in the manual for your rice cooker or on the bag of rice. In addition to the water, add 1/8 to 1/4 cup of each: Soy Sauce, Rice Vinegar (or Mirin, if you have it). Add 1-2 tablespoons Sesame Seed Oil and 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger.

Let these sit (in the cooker) for 10-15 minutes before turning on the rice cooker. This will allow the rice to absorb more of the flavor. If you’d like to add vegetables to the rice, after starting the rice cooker, strain 1 small can of “peas and carrots” and one small can of whole kernel corn (Make sure you DON’T get the creamed corn), and cook these in a skillet. Be sure to turn/stir them from time to time so that they don’t burn. You can also fry an egg (over hard so the yolk is cooked completely through) and chop it up to add to the rice. These are not mandatory, it just depends on what you like in your rice.


When the rice is done cooking, put into the skillet with the peas/carrots/corn/egg, or whatever you want to/don’t want to add. Stir them together and turn the heat to high IF you want the rice more “crispy.” Continue stirring/mixing while on high heat. If you let it sit, it will burn.
******************************************************************
Japanese Teriyaki Chicken


1 Package chicken breast tenderloins or 1 package of 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts and cut into approx. 1”-1.5” cubes

1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce

1/8 cup Soy Sauce (I use “La Choy Teriyaki Marinade and Sauce” because it’s thicker)

1/8 cup Rice Wine Vinegar

1 TBSP Sesame Seed Oil

1-1/2 TBSP Sugar
1 tsp. Ground Ginger


Add vegetable oil (pretty liberally, but don’t make it deep enough to “fry” something in) to a large skillet big enough for all of the chicken cubes to have at least one side touching the pan. Preheat the pan and oil at MED-MED/HIGH heat for a few minutes before adding the chicken. Cook the chicken cubes in the skillet for 3-4 minutes, then add the remaining ingredients. Turn the chicken over, mix well, and reposition the cubes until all of them are making contact with the pan again. Reduce the heat to MED/LOW-MED. Let these sit and cook slowly, halfway covered, stirring/turning every 3-4 minutes or so until they are cooked through. You can sprinkle some sesame seeds on top before serving if you have any. By cooking these halfway through first, then slowly cooking them the rest of the way in the sauces/spices, the sauce will thicken up, becoming almost “sticky,” like a glaze. This makes them have MUCH more flavor and they will tend to be a little sweeter, too. Be sure to cut a couple of pieces before you serve them in order to make sure they are done completely, as your stove might not cook the same as mine.

************************************************************


Hibachi Vegetables:

The Zucchini and Onion recipe and technique is the same, although I would use a high-rimmed skillet. I used 3 Zucchini and 1 whole (large) Vidalia Onion. Just cut off the ends of the zucchini, cut it long-ways, then cut each of those halves into strips, then chop those strips into 1.5-2" sections. And I'm pretty sure you know how to cut up an onion, lol.

1-Hillshire Smoked Sausage Link (my fav is the beef smoked sausage. Can use 2 depending on how much you like)
2- Can of Cream of Celery (I use 1 if its just me and my hubby)
2- Cups of Rice (I use 1 C because its just me and my hubby usually)
5-Cups of Water (I use slightly over 2 cups for my 1 C of rice)

Mix water, rice, and cream of celery together in a pot. Slice the sausage into small pieces (I quarter mine)....add this as well. Let the ingredients come to a boil. After boiling, turn down to a simmer and let cook until rice is done (usually about 30 minutes). We usually just eat this and nothing else, but it would probably be best to eat a veggie or 2 with it. lol!

Sprinkle with Lemon pepper seasoning.
Sprinkle with Capers (add just a little of the juice from jar)

Put a dab of butter on each piece and bake until fish is flaky. Usually no longer than 20 minutes.

I serve this over a bed of rice pilaf. ( My favorite is Texmati from BiLo) The rice also takes 20 minutes to cook after coming to boil and reducing heat to simmer. Let rice stand 2-3 minutes before serving.

Place rice in middle of plate. Criss cross fish on top of rice. squeeze a generous portion of lemon juice and lime juice over fish/rice. Serve with either Broccoli Florets/ baked brussel sprouts of corn on cob.

All ingredients take less than 30 minutes to cook.

80. Chicken Enchilada Casserole –April Cullum


4 chicken breasts

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies, mild or hot (I use Rotel)

10 flour tortillas

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or more if ya want)

Sliced olives (optional)
1 can refried beans (optional)


Boil chicken until cooked. Drain and cool. Shred chicken/break it apart. Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl combine the chicken, soups, and tomatoes. Mix well.
Cut the tortillas into fourths OR leave them as wholes to layer (whatever your preference). In a large dish layer tortillas, then chicken mix and cheese. Repeat another layer or two, until chicken mixture and cheese are gone, making sure the top layer is cheese. Bake until it is heated through and the cheese is melted (About 30 mins). Serve with some sour cream and salsa on top, if preferred.

**I add the olives by putting them between layers or sometimes I just stir them in to the chicken mix. I have never made it with the beans, but the recipe I have says you can start with the beans on each tortilla layer and follow with the rest...

83. Chicken-Morgan Rabon

I'ma try to turn this chicken stuff my Puerto Rican neighbor makes into a recipe. I think it falls under "kid-friendly" because my picky three year old eats it.
I make it on the stove top but she slices the chicken thin, puts it on skewers, and grills it (like the beef stick stuff at Chinese places).


You Need:
Chicken (I cube it into 1" pieces, she slices it.)
butter/oil, just to saute not to deep fry.
Sazon Completa (it's like Latin season-all, but tastes totally different and can't be substituted! Goya & Badia make it but market under different names.)
Teriyaki sauce

All you have to do is season the chicken with sazon completa and then cook it in the oil (make sure you get good color). Add a little teriyaki when the chicken is almost done. It has a totally unique taste! ***A warning though, some sazon completa has MSG in it. Check the label if you're sensitive.***

109.Glazed Pork Loin Roast (with peach bbq sauce)- Theresa Bessette

Sweat in 1 T. olive oil; Add
½ cup onion, diced
1 T. garlic, minced
1 T. fresh ginger, minced
1/3 t. red pepper flakes
1 ½ cups peach juice or nectar (found in the juice aisle)
Stir in: Simmer
1 cup frozen or canned sliced peaches
½ cup peach preserves
¼ cup ketchup
2 T. apple cider vinegar
1 T. honey
2 t. fresh lime juice
1 cinnamon stick
Grill and baste:
1 boneless pork loin roast, trimmed, seasoned with s&p (2lbs)
Prepare grill
Sweat olive oil, onion, garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes in a saucepan over medium-low heat until soft, about 5 min. Add nectar, increase heat to medium-high, and simmer until reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes.
1. Stir in remaining ingredients (except pork loin), reduce heat to medium, and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, 10 minutes: discard cinnamon stick. Reserve ½ cup sauce for basting the roast during cooking, then transfer remaining sauce to a bowl, cool, and cover with plastic wrap. (can store up to 1 week in fridge)
2. Grill pork loin first over direct heat to sear top side, about 5 minutes
3. Baste with ½ cup reserved sauce, then transfer to indirect heat. Roast turning to baste every 10 minutes until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center registers 155 degrees, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from grill, let rest 5 minutes, then cut into 1/2” thick slices. Serve with remaining sauce.
Alternative we like to do on a weeknight is use pork chops instead of the loin. Grill the chops and then simmer in sauce on stove for about 10 minutes. It’s a little bit quicker and just as good! Enjoy ;-)

Brown and drain beef, add seasoning and water according to directions. Place biscuits into muffin tins and press up sides. I usually "peel" away a layer or two of some of the biscuits to make enough for all 12 cups, since there are only 10 biscuits in the can...

Fill cups with beef mixture and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake in preheated oven according to directions on biscuit pkg. I serve with sour cream and salsa, with salad and corn on the side.

162.Black Bean & Corn Quesadillas.-Leigh England Leviner

8 inch whole-grain tortillas, canned black beans, canned corn (both drained & rinsed), 2 scallions (thinly sliced), monterey jack or cheddar cheese, sour cream and salsa for serving (if u like). I also added a boneless chicken breast. Fry the boneless chicken breast in olive oil. Mix black beans, corn and scallion in a bowl. Layer each tortilla (one one side) w/ cheese, chicken (dice it up into small, thin cubes), and black bean/corn/scallion mix. Fold the tortillas and fry them until they look spotty brown on medium heat! DELCIOUS!

163.Bacon Cheesy Mac Burgers-Jarrett Willis

1lb Ground Beef of your choice...get some fat though.
1 pkg. Your favorite Macaroni and Cheese
1 pkg. Real Bacon Bits
McCormick's Montreal Steak Grill Seasoning
Cayenne Pepper Powder
Garlic Powder
Onion Salt
Worchestershire Sauce

Cook the Mac'n'cheese. After adding the cheese, mix in half-to-a-whole bag of Real Bacon Bits. Form an even number of thin but large diameter beef patties. Make the center form into a bowl with the edges being higher. Pair these off and fill ONE of each pair with the bacon/mac'n'cheese blend. Use the other of the pair of patties to cover the filled one, and mash the edges together and seal. Coat one side with Worchestershire Sauce and gently rub in. Sprinkle generously with McCormick's Montreal Seasoning, then sprinkle with all of the addition seasonings. GENTLY flip each built patty over and repeat the process. Grill these as you would any normal burger, but keep in mind that the meat is thinner in the center of the patties, so don't burn them...always keep a low heat and low flame with these. ***TO MAKE THIS MUCH EASIER*** Use a grill cage, like you would for fish or shrimp. That way, it will hold the patties together, prevent breaking and leaking, it will cook it more evenly and cook the ends together, and when you flip them, it will not break or disrupt the patties.

Serve these on your favorite toasted buns, and top with your favorite goodies. I like to top mine with A1 Steak Sauce, and sometimes with Heinz 57 instead. Meat, Carbs, Dairy, Grains, Sugar, Protein, vitamins, calcium, all in one delicious burger. And I've heard this is a huge hit with the kids!

182. Steak & Onions- Wildalys M. Alvira Gaud

1 tsp. Minced Garlic or 2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp. coarse ground black pepper

1 tsp. Goya Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper (you can sub with season salt or salt and pepper)

1/4 tsp. oregano

1/4 cup White Vinegar

2 lbs. cubed beef steaks (1/4 inch thick slices)

2 tbsp. Olive Oil

4 large onions, sliced very thin

Water

In a small bowl, combine salt, pepper, oregano, garlic and one tablespoon of the olive oil. Mix together to form paste and rub the paste on both sides of the steak.

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the rest of the olive oil and the white vinegar.

Add the steaks and add enough water to cover the steaks.

Add the sliced onion on top of the steaks and cook until the meat is fully cooked, about 15 to 25 minutes, watching carefully that the water doesn’t evaporate. If it does, just add more water. Sometimes I cut strips of green pepper (stir fry style) and also add it on top of the steaks along with the onions.

Also, make sure to turn the steaks over once, halfway through cooking. If the onions end up in the bottom, it’s ok, because you want them to cook and be tender and not crispy.

208.Chicken Bundles-Robin Marie Bledsoe

4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1-13 oz. can chicken (or equivalent cooked chicken)
1 Tbs. sesame seeds
1/4 tsp. parsley
2 cans Pillsbury Crescent Rolls - leave in fridge until ready to use!
1 Tbs. finely chopped onion or dried minced onion
Directions:

Combine the above ingredients (minus the crescent rolls) and mix well.Open one 8 count package crescent rolls. DO NOT divide into triangles. Keep every 2 triangles together, forming 4 rectangles.
Pinch the seams closed and pat each one out into a larger square. Note from Brittni... "I forgot to pat them out into larger squares, and so I had to use an extra can of crescent rolls to use up most of the filling, so it might be good to have and extra can handy." (I changed the ingredient list to 2 cans of crescent rolls just in case!)

Put a spoonful of chicken/cream cheese mixture into the center of each square. Fold the corners up into the center, layering like flower petals so the roll is sealed. (Don't stress too much on the technique, fold them up press seams together to make a bundle.)

Repeat with all 8 rectangles. You're going to worry that you're doing this wrong, but you're not, just do it, I promise they'll taste delicious.

Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

¾ C. uncooked regular long-grain white rice
½ tsp. onion powder

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

 --------------------------------------------------
236. Chicken & Rice-Kelly Moran
1 can cream of chicken (or mushroom) soup
1 1/3 cup water
1 cup MINUTE rice
1 packet Italian seasoning
chicken (you can use any kind of chicken. I use about 7-8 pieces of tenderloin just because that's what we usually have on hand)
3/4 cup cheese

Cook chicken with a little bit of the Italian seasoning and then cut into bite-size pieces. While the chicken is cooking, I mix together the soup, water, seasoning, half of the cheese and rice in an 8x8 baking dish. Mix well, making sure all the rice is covered. Stir in chicken pieces and top with remaining cheese.

**If using instant/Minute rice, you do NOT have to pre-cook rice. Only pre-cook rice if it is regular rice since it may not completely cook in the oven.

Cover with foil and bake at 350º for 30 minutes, a little longer if cheese on top isn't melted.

I serve this in a bowl, just because it's easier when it's hot.
It thickens as it cools, though, making it easier to cut & serve.
Hope you enjoy! It's a family favorite at our house!

**You can also make this recipe "Mexican-style"! Just use taco seasoning instead of Italian seasoning!**

Remove from the broiler to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice the meat against the grain and transfer it to a serving platter.
Cook’s Note: When using the broiler, crack the oven door open so the meat does not burn.

238. Prime Rib or London Broil-Renee Ault Diehl


  1. Combine seasonings, and rub into roast.
  2. Let sit while oven preheats to 375.
  3. Place roast in broiling pan, fat side up or bone side up.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes.
  5. Turn oven off, DO NOT OPEN OVEN.
  6. One hour before serving, turn oven back on 45 minutes.
  7. Take rib out, LET STAND FOR 15 MINUTES.
  8. This is VERY important, it allows the juices to distribute.
  9. Do not carve "ahead of time", either. Scrape off the salt "shell." The meat directly underneath that will be very salty, but that's usually the fatty part that no one eats, anyways. The rest of it will be fine, I PROMISE!
  10. Serve with au jus and horseradish sauce.
