Description

This recipe brings the restaurant to my home kitchen. And it’s easy, too! The meal comes together quickly and fills my kitchen with wonderful aromas. If there are any leftovers, they're just as good reheated the next day.

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 pound)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
  • 1 can (13.66 ounces) coconut milk
  • 1 medium mango, peeled and chopped
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil, divided
  • 1/4 cup miso paste
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha chili sauce
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 2 medium limes, quartered
Directions
  1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Brown chicken on both sides. Add garlic and ginger; cook 1 minute longer.
  2. Stir in coconut milk, mango, green onions, ¼ cup basil, miso paste and chili sauce. Cook and stir until sauce is slightly reduced and a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 170°, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup basil. Serve with rice and limes.

Loup de Mer

I was very surprised the first time I ran across Loup de Mer at the fish store. They had it labeled as Bronzino which is the Italian name, well one of them the Italians have different names for this fish according to what part of the country you are in. This fish has several names but the way they are marketing it now is Mediterranean or European Seabass. No matter what they call it it is a wonderful fish. It is a fish that needs little adornment, in fact if you were to ask Marcella Hazan she would inform you to simply poach it and serve it with mayonnaise. I can say I have to agree and especially the part about the mayonnaise.

Boozy Shamrock Shake with Whipped Cream

Even if you’ve never ordered a Shamrock Shake, its reappearance on McDonalds’ menus come February is a universal reminder that St. Paddy’s Day is near. Our riff on the minty green milkshake is just a wee more grown up. A fraction of a teaspoon of mint extract takes this cloyingly rich dessert and transforms it into something you might even call refreshing. The boozy whipped topping is at your discretion, of course. And a light hand with the food coloring can subtly (dare we say beautifully?) tint the shake, so it looks less like a Kelly green and more like a hint of spring to come.
