Old Country Pickled Chicken Roll

Old Country Pickled Chicken Roll by Smokinhotchef

This recipe is a slight adaptation from a recipe I saw in Saveur magazine issue number 137. I immediately fell in love with the rustic hand on approach to procuring a deli meat of sorts by self asembly and a little 'elbow grease'. I deviated from the recipe by simmering the chicken roll in a tumeric and onion combination with a hint…

Hawaiian Crest Salsa

Hawaiian Crest Salsa by Smokinhotchef

I came up with this recipe at the spur of the moment to accompany the shrimp recipe I was preparing for a late lunch get-together with several of my sisters and my brother Ken. I had just visited the supermarket, so I had lots of fresh ingredients on hand. My sister Gayle said this recipe reminded her of Hawaii and crisp freshness…

Crusty Fried Salmon Planks

Crusty Fried Salmon Planks by Smokinhotchef

Growing up, my mom would often create recipes from different types of canned fish for breakfast. She was a master at preparing the meal complete with homemade biscuits( if we didn't have bread for toast), prepping our school clothes, ironing our dad's, and managing to get herself ready and out the door by 6:30 am. Aside from being…

Drunken Style Chinese Drumsticks

Drunken Style Chinese Drumsticks by Smokinhotchef

Oh no "chicken again" becomes "Oh Yeah! Chicken Again" with this recipe. Drumsticks are popular and easy to handle especially with the kitties. The best part about it is chicken legs are like kebabs in that the meat is on a bone stick of sorts. Marinating makes these puppies extra moist and flavorful throughout. They pair well…

Yellow Garlic Rice and Broccoli

Yellow Garlic Rice and Broccoli by Smokinhotchef

I make this all the time for a quick and easy side dish. Alternately, this can be a main dish by adding 1 lb. of chicken, beef, or pork. my daughter Genesis loves it and enjoys this recipe as her main dish with no meat added. I feel great knowing my children can be satisfied with a meatless meal and still be happy!

Herb and Spice Brine Leg of Lamb

Herb and Spice Brine Leg of Lamb by Smokinhotchef

This may be one of my best creations yet. There are an array of herbs and spices, most from my own garden, that help bring this leg of lamb up to that of a prized dish in any locale. The lamb is seasoned in a brine refrigerated for up to 36 hours, so it is essentially a make ahead dish. There is no need for further seasoning…

Smokinhot's Bistro Style Steak Sandwich

Smokinhot's Bistro Style Steak Sandwich by Smokinhotchef

I love sandwiches. This recipe is a 3 course meal including soup all in one. Fresh mushrooms and onions make for super awesome steak accompaniments, while the potatoes and sliced pumpernickel provide the starch and complete the picture. French onion soup brings the whole ensemble together. Bursting with flavor and not skinny on…

Smokinhot's Wingz and Things by Smokinhotchef

Wings gone haywire!! Everyone needs a good and spicy hot wing in their lives at some point!! Along with the heat however, you also want flavor to boot. Great with beer and friends and family, not necessarily in that order, wings are as American as apple pie. The longer you let them marinate, the racier they become. Take your wingz…
