Asian Fusion Pork Sandwich
A Pork sandwich inspired from a fusion of Asian (Thai and Korean) flavors
Cantonese Chicken
Yet another of those “Chicken Dump” recipes. While the creator describes them as a “meal” they are certainly NOT that. They are really just recipes for different marinades for some chicken and most of the marinades so far have been pretty flavorless with an extreme lack of seasoning.
The flavor of this one was ok after I doctored up the marinade by simply adding some Crushed Red Pepper to it. To make it an actual meal required cooking some rice and even stir-frying some veggies. Just before service I drained the juices from the crockpot and placed them in a skillet to make a thickened sauce.
Lemon and Garlic Chicken
A fourth Chicken Dump Recipe, however I increased the seasoning a bit and used some of the juices to make a cream sauce
For the risotto I used some White Wine as my “acid” and added a touch of Lemon-Pepper
Caribbean Chicken
Yet another recipe from this site. With a name like “Caribbean Chicken” an expectation is set. I’m wondering if these recipes were created by someone from the mild mid-west where Taco Bell “Mild” sauce is considered to be blistering hot. Basic seasoning is seriously lacking in some of these. I would recommend adding (which I have done so below) 1 tsp of Salt, 2 tsp of Crushed Red Pepper and 1 tsp of Black Pepper
Given the “tropical” promise of the name I used a Citrus seasoned Rice Vinegar in the Risotto and added diced Red and Orange Bell Peppers along with some crushed Macadamia nuts.
Sticky Chicken
Another of the “Chicken Dump” recipes. Made according to the posted recipe and it was actually quite bland and “flat” If I were to make it again I would add Sriracha, Salt and serve it with wedges of fresh Lime and a sprinkling of Cilantro which I have added to the list of ingredients below
For the side of Rice I used Rice Vinegar to give it a bit of a Sushi taste (sushi is rice NOT fish) and folded in shredded Carrot since the dish seems to be going for a Thai/Vietnamese flavor profile.
Chicken Hurry
Decided to try this lady’s 10 Chicken crockpot recipes and to come up with a side dish of rice to go along with them using my “No-stir” risotto recipe tailored to a flavor profile to accompany the dish.
The sauce had a bit of a BBQ like taste and at first I was thinking about using Apple Cider Vinegar and a Yellow Onion but decided to use a Red Onion and Red Wine Vinegar instead to mimic the color of the Sauce too. Corn on the Cob goes well with BBQ so I used Corn in Risotto.
Her plan is to have these made ahead so that you just dump the contents that you had placed into a 1 Gallon ziplock Freezer bag into a crock pot
Creamy Hot Italian Sausage and Potato Soup
Slight variation on a recipe I got from a neighbor
Mini Meatloaf cupcakes with Spicy and Sweet BBQ
Make the meat mixture and the BBQ sauce the night before to give the flavors in the meat and the sauce time to meld.
They have a nice heat level so if you don’t tolerate heat that well leave out the Tabasco and maybe just use two Chipotle peppers instead of four
Spicy Tomato Dipping Oil
Great to serve as a condiment for dipping bread. You could even use it as a sauce on Pasta, Vegetables, Meatballs, etc…
Slow Cooker Hot Chocolate
Creamy, delicious and oh so easy to prepare a head of time to have it waiting for you when you come in from the cold
