But, using a technique of searing them and then “poaching” the chops in a sauce of apple cider vinegar, apple cider, brown sugar and a little soy sauce and Dijon mustard the chops come out moist and… |

Roasted Halibut or Sea Bass with Balsamic Garlic glazeThis recipe got rave reviews in a cookbook I love. However, it wasn't as boldly flavored as I would like. If you're looking for a simple, elegant dish with mild flavors, you will probably love it. |

I also boiled instead of roasting, because I find it makes the pork even more tender. I was very happy with the results. Incredibly flavorful and wonderful over… |

Lamb RisottoI want to call this a "Lebanese Risotto" because I used a lot of the spices and ingredients that are in a lot of the recipes I grew up cooking. So needless to say this would go great with a nice fatoush salad or a tomato & cucumber salad with a side of Hummus and pita bread. |

Arroz con Pollo - Yellow Rice and ChickenSpanish, Cuban, South American - a traditional and popular ethnic dish, this ranks among my all time favorites and is comfort food at its best! Most often accompanied by black beans (see link) and green peas. Rice takes on a yellow cast from that most expensive of all herbs - saffron. My mom-in-law used a flavoring packet called Vigo… |
