 BBQ Pork Chops,  Spicy Fried Rice

& Napa/Red Pepper Salad w/ Orange Ginger Dressing

"The Pork Chops were Fantastic!!!" - Hilda

"The pork chops were fantastic last night.  We were sucking on the bones.
If I had not packed some for lunch, my husband would have eaten all of it.
=) Thanks!" - Irene

If you like sweet savory BBQ and spicy foods, this is for you!

 

Crispy Ginger Fish w/ Rice Noodles

*$2/25 or 4/$45*

"This is mine and Irene's favorite!" - Hilda

  I make this for a lot of our family gatherings (especially the Asian ones).  Yes, it's a whole fish, with bones and all!  If you've never tried eating fish on the bones, you definitely need to start with this.  The fish is rubbed with garlic and ginger and fried til nice and crispy.  To serve, just take a knife and lift at the two cut slits and pull apart from the bones. Place fish on top of rice noodles, salad and drizzle on some fish sauce.   (If you're absolutely terrified of the fish head, just let me know and I'd be glad to remove it prior to packing!) 

To Reheat:  You can either bake it at 350/375 til crispy or do a quick broil for a few minutes.

Lemongrass Chicken w/ Steamed Rice & Veggie Stir Fry

"Dinner was yummy! Everyone else missed out!" - Nicole

"Food was great!  My husband and I really enjoyed the Lemongrass Chicken last night! :)  We also have plenty of yummy leftovers."  - Laura

Get ready for a fantastic fantastic treat.  This is old school lemongrass chicken.  You may have a hard time finding this at restaurants.  Skinless chicken thighs are deboned then cooked with the bones, carmelized onions, garlic and lemongrass until it looks like what you see in the pic- a sweet, savory pot of tender chicken sitting in a sauce that I call liquid gold.  You will want to pour it all over your rice it's so good.  This is a dinner I can guarantee you will not have any leftovers. 

Saigon Sliders and Crispy Wonton Slaw

"Loved the sliders and everything about the layers of goodness - cilantro, sauce, jalapenos, slaw....everything!" - Amy  
 

 "Last week lunch was great.  I had the Saigon Sliders and I loved them.  They were delicious.  I can't wait for my husband to try them." - Sonia 

"My mother and I loved the sliders last week." - Julia

Two mini turkey burgers made of ground turkey marinated with scallions, carrots, and garlic on two whole wheat buns with sweet slaw, pickled jalapenos and cilantro mayo.  I will also be introducing a new crispy wonton slaw. It's hard for me to stop eating this once I start!
