Grilled New York Strip with Balsamic Soy Marinade and Wild Mushrooms

yholmes 2 Comments

This is my go to marinade for any steak. The palm sugar is the secret ingredient and can be found at any Asian market. If you can’t find palm sugar use brown sugar.

INGREDIENTS

For the marinade:

  • 2 New York strip steaks
  • 2 teaspoons palm sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the mushrooms:

  • 1/2 pound shitake mushrooms
  • 1/2 pound oyster mushrooms
  • 5 oz package brown beech mushrooms (also called clamshell)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed but whole
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

DIRECTIONS

For the steak: Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.Add to plastic bag with steaks and marinade in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Grill to your desired wellness. Cover and let rest for at least 5 minutes to let the juices redistribute back into the meat.

For the mushrooms: Slice the shitake mushrooms into long strips. Keep the oyster mushrooms and beech mushrooms whole. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and garlic clove. When the garlic has turned light brown remove from pan and discard. Add mushrooms to the pan and sprinkle with salt. Stir once and let cook for 2 minutes. Stir a few more times and let cook for an addition 5-6 minutes until the mushrooms have turned golden brown. Add the balsamic vinegar and butter. If you want an earthy flavor to your dish, you may consider using truffle balsamic vinegar. Cook for additional 1-2 minutes.

To serve, top steak with mushrooms.

Rice Noodle Salad with Shrimp and Vegetables (Bun Tom Xao)

yholmes Leave a comment

This meal is one I crave often – especially in summer months. My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Dallas, Vietnam, serves my favorite bun with pork, shrimp and an egg roll chopped up in the bowl of noodles. I like some extra heat so I add 2 Thai bird chilies to the Nuoc Cham (the sauce you pour over the salad).

This is such an easy summer meal that is light and full of great veggies. Give it a try – it’s much easier to prepare than you may think.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound shrimp, peeled and cleaned
  • 3 tablespoons Asian BBQ sauce (or hoison)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 8 oz. dried rice vermicelli
  • 2 cups washed and shredded romaine, red, or green leaf lettuce
  • 2 cups fresh, crisp bean sprouts
  • 1-1/2 cups peeled, seeded, and julienned cucumber
  • 1-1/2 cups carrots, julienned
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup roughly chopped or small whole mint leaves
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup roughly chopped or small basil or Thai basil leaves
  • 2 Tbs. chopped roasted peanuts
  • 12 sprigs fresh cilantro
  • Nuoc cham (recipe below)

Nuoc Cham

  • 5 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1/3 cup fish sauce
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced
  • 1 Thai bird chile, seeded and minced

DIRECTIONS

For the Nuoc Cham: Stir all the ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside until ready to use. The sauce keeps for two weeks in the refrigerator.

For the noodles: Cook the rice noodles for 4 minutes in a large pot of boiling water. Drain in colander and rinse with cold water until noodles are cool. Let drain for 30 minutes. Can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 hours.

For the shrimp: Toss shrimp is bbq sauce and garlic. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in nonstick skillet. Saute over medium high heat for 2 minutes per side.

For the vegetables: Divide the lettuce, bean sprouts, cucumber,carrots, mint, and basil among four large soup or pasta bowls. If working ahead of time, cover each bowl with damp paper towels and refrigerate.

Fluff the noodles with your fingers and divide them among the prepared salad bowls. Put the cooked shrimp on the noodles and garnish each bowl with the peanuts and cilantro. Serve with a side of nuoc cham (about 1/4 cup per serving). For an little extra kick – add a small squeeze of sriracha to the top.

Sole Meuniere

yholmes 2 Comments

Dover sole isn’t necessarily “from” Dover, but this English fishing port had plenty of it in the 19th century. I guess the name stuck. Sole is buttery, sweet and flaky and this recipe from the Barefoot Contessa is classic and fresh. The sole filets are quite thin, so have the other parts of your meal ready to go as the fish cooks lightning fast.

Why does my lemon zest look orange you may be asking?? I used Meyer lemons AGAIN. I’m addicted to those juicy little fruits.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 fresh sole fillets, 3 to 4 ounces each
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley or thyme

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Have 2 heat-proof dinner plates ready

Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large shallow plate. Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkle one side with salt.

Heat 3 tablespoons of butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat until it starts to brown. Dredge 2 sole fillets in the seasoned flour on both sides and place them in the hot butter. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 2 minutes. Turn carefully with a metal spatula and cook for 2 minutes on the other side. While the second side cooks, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice to the pan. Carefully put the fish filets on the ovenproof plates and pour the sauce over them. Keep the cooked fillets warm in the oven while you repeat the process with the remaining 2 fillets. When they’re done, add the cooked fillets to the plates in the oven. Sprinkle with the parsley or thyme, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.

Marisa’s Peanut Butter “Sandwiches”

yholmes Leave a comment

Marisa is well known for her baking skills (famous really). She says cookies and pies are her strong suit. I would agree and hope she will open up a treats shop so we can all get our fix (key lime pie please)!

These cookies are her leading mans favorite sweet something (second to Marisa of course) and she was kind enough to share them with me.

I baked these for a few of my favorites (you all know who you are) and was very happy with the tasty turnout.

Thanks Marisa – these are a permanent addition to the keepers box!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 egg

PEANUT BUTTER FILLING:

  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3 teaspoons vegetable oil

DIRECTIONS

Heat oven to 350. In medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt. In large bowl, beat butter, peanut butter, sugar and egg until smooth. On low, beat in flour mixture.

For each cookie, roll 1 rounded teaspoon dough into 1 inch ball; place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake in 350 degree oven 10 minutes until puffed. Let stand 2 minutes on sheet. Remove cookies to rack; let cool.

For the filling: In a bowl mix peanut butter and sugar. Spread flat side of half of the cookies with 1 rounded teaspoon filling; top with remaining cookies. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.

In small bowl, microwave chips and oil for 1 minute; stir until melted. Dip cookies halfway into chocolate; let excess drain off. Place on waxed paper lined sheets. Drizzle with remaining chocolate. Refrigerate to set.
