Good recipies?

Posted by: admin  /  Category: Mexican Recipies


I’m not completely useless at cooking but the stuff i cook is boring like spag bol and pasta + tomato sauce and id like to learn something interesting to cook. Hint- I’m a big fan of the mexican and italian stuff and i’d also like to know about nice sauces to go with steak.

Steak Sauce:

2 cups chicken stock
2 1/4 pounds plum tomatoes, chopped
1 1/4 cup chopped mango
1 cup chopped yellow onions
1/2 pound turnip, peeled and diced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup raisins
1 (2-inch) cinnamon stick
2 cloves
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon molasses
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Combine chicken stock, tomatoes, mango, yellow onions, turnip, jalapeno, ketchup, raisins, cinnamon, cloves, light brown sugar, vinegars, molasses, Worcestershire, garlic, ginger, coriander, chili powder, and cayenne in a medium, heavy pot and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove the sauce from the heat and puree on high speed with an immersion blender or in batches in a food processor. Add the orange and lemon juices and process to blend.

italian mac and cheese:
Cook Time: 20 mins and makes 4 servings

1 pound ziti rigate, penne rigate or cavatappi (ribbed, hollow corkscrews)
1 pound Italian bulk sweet sausage
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 or 4 cloves garlic, chopped
12 crimini mushrooms, sliced
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 (10-ounce) sack, 2 1/2 cups, shredded Italian 4 cheese blend, available on dairy aisle
1 can diced tomatoes, drained well
1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco), optional
1/2 cup Parmesan, a couple of handfuls

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt water and cook pasta to a chewy al dente, about 8 minutes.
In a nonstick skillet, brown and crumble the sausage. Drain cooked crumbles on paper towel lined plate. Return pan to heat and add extra-virgin olive oil, butter, garlic and mushrooms. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Saute 3 to 5 minutes, until mushrooms are lightly golden.

Preheat broiler to high.

To mushrooms, add flour and stir, cooking 2 minutes. Whisk in stock, then stir in cream. Bring cream to a bubble, then stir in 2 cups of 4 cheese blend. When cheese has melted into sauce, add tomatoes. When sauce comes to a bubble, remove from heat and adjust seasonings, adding hot sauce if desired.

Combine cheese sauce with sausage and pasta, transfer to baking dish, casserole or oven safe serving platter. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of 4 cheese blend and the grated Parmesan over the top and brown under hot broiler.

    The web site Allrecipes.com is loaded with recipes of all sorts. It is worth your time to look at the reviews because even if the recipe is highly rated many times the users have tips on how to make it tastier or avoid pitfalls they have run into. I have used the site many times and have had excellent results.

    try the Kraft website, they have a ton of recipes on there. You can search by type of ingredient (like chicken, tuna, etc) or by the type of meal (appetizer, breakfast, etc). I use it all the time! :)

    CREAMY SPICY CHICKEN

    Drizzle a little olive oil in bottom of baking dish.
    Place 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts in a baking dish.

    In a separate bowl combine:
    -1 can campbells cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken if you don’t like mushrooms)
    -about 10 to 15 slices of jalapeno peppers from a jar
    -a tablespoon or two of the pepper juice from the jar

    Pour over chicken in baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (I cook the full 60 minutes for added tenderness). Uncover and sprinkle lots of mexican blend cheese over top. Put back in the oven and bake until cheese is bubbly.

    Serve with black beans, corn and a packet of knorr mexican or spanish rice (I prefer spanish).

    ENJOY!
