My wife has been in the mood for chicken with a lime juice based sauce for a while.... so.... bún gà nướng - Vietnamese grilled chicken noodle salad.

 

The chicken was marinated in lemongrass (from the garden), garlic, black pepper, fish sauce, a bit of Golden Mountain sauce (some kind of amino sauce) a bit of honey and some sesame oil.  Since I don't have a real grill, it went closely under the broiler for 5 minutes on each side, alternating, until the chicken was cooked through and skin almost done.  Then I let it cool a bit (internal temp to about 140F) then back under the broiler for about 2minute increments until the skin was done - came out great - chicken was really juicy and the skin was completely rendered - not super crispy though

 

 

With a few different herbs (2 from the garden).  I would have liked to have had some Thai basil as well, but it was super expensive in the store and didn't look very good.

 

 

One bowl:

 

 

Dinner finally served!!!!

 

 

Sauce was lime juice, sugar, fish sauce, black pepper, garlic and some chilli

I am very disheartened that I don't have the ingredients on hand to make this. It's all I want at the moment!

I love these bowls - I got them online after a recommendation I got here (surprise, surprise) maybe about 6 months ago or so?  I don't remember the name of the store but I'll try to find the post.

Love these one pot meals (other than  the rice pot)

Chicken & Tofu in Sandpot. I used the fresh Shitaki mushrooms and Romano green beans I  had picked up in Winnipeg last week.

Thank you to you and your wife!  I remember seeing that site now.  I didn't order back then.  I think that is going to change  today

Mise en place :

 

 

Capari tomatoes cut into 8 pieces .  Bean ( very little cheese ) taquitos 

 

Tj's Parmesan-ish , small dice.

 

1 ) if you slice // chop at least three things , the result becomes Home Made.

 

2 ) French always helpful

 

 

bowl soaking to hydrate the taquitos .

 

the bean T's worked well.

 

wish I had some fresh adult spinach , or swiss chard to chop up

 

and add at the last minute .

 

a very nice keeper for me.

Interesting to see this link. I started looking over the holidays and have a file started. A NYC store Korin is on the short list. 

I purchased a couple bowls from Ikea a few years ago to test the size. Straight flared sides, not too deep and at least 8 inches across at the top.

I don't feel comfortable unless I have a bag of spinach in the freezer for just such a purpose. Lately fond of the Krpoger cut-leaf (whole leaves - name baffles)  TJ no pesticide good too.

[rotuts]

I haven't found Adult spinach  ie not baby

 

at Tj's  I may have to ask

I have made a Cook’s illustrated twice baked potato recipe and their secret to a nice potato shell was to bake it again after the flesh was taken out.  Not in the oven long…just long enough to crispen it a bit.  They were then stuffed with their filling and baked again to finish.  The skins had a nice texture…not rubbery.  I wonder where that recipe is?

check your PMs.

[Annie_H]

Exploding crisper drawer I needed to use a giant spaghetti squash. Poked with a paring knife and microwaved 5 min so I could cut it in half. Rubbed with chili oil and za'atar and roasted a hour cut side down. Then stuffed with chard and meatballs and three cheeses.

Your meal looks SO good. I'd love the chicken recipe please.

Of course!  The recipes for the chicken and the sauce are now on my webpage.

Do I understand correctly that you pounded the steak after it was cooked?  I had never heard of that.

 

[chefmd]

Yes, it was a leftover steak.  I partially froze it, sliced it as thinly as I could, and pounded it.
