Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice

  • ½ cup soy sauce

  • ¼ cup rice vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil

  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic

  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce (Optional)

  • ¼ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil (or other neutral oil)

  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks

  • 1 medium orange bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks

  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks

  • 4 cups broccoli florets

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons chopped cashews, or to taste (Optional)

Directions

  1. Measure out 1/4 cup pineapple juice from the can and add to a small mixing bowl. Set pineapple chunks aside and reserve any extra juice for another use or discard.

  2. Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, and pepper flakes to the pineapple juice; stir until well combined. Transfer 1/4 cup of the mixture to a small bowl and leave the rest in the mixing bowl.

  3. Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add avocado oil to the hot wok and heat until it shimmers, about 30 seconds. Add red onion and bell peppers; cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes. Add broccoli; cook and stir for 1 minute.

  4. Add the sauce from the mixing bowl and bring to a boil. Add shrimp and cook until they turn pink and begin to curl, 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, stir cornstarch into the sauce in the small bowl, mixing until there are no lumps. Slowly add to the skillet, stirring constantly. Add reserved pineapple chunks.

  6. Cook until sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle cashews over top. Serve immediately.

Stuffed Leg of Lamb with Balsamic-Fig-Basil Sauce

Dried plums and currants tossed with salted, roasted almonds, creme de cassis, and mint is the stuffing for my rolled lamb roast. It's a very easy way to dress up a lamb roast during the holidays. The simple herb rub adds just the right amount of seasoning along with fresh garlic inserted into the top of the roast. My balsamic basil fig sauce creation drizzled over the sliced lamb is the perfect finish touch and extremely flavorful thanks to the fresh basil.

This antipasto salad is colorful and easy to make. After searching for a recipe for an antipasto salad that I had envisioned in my head, I gave up and just decided to create one myself. I made this dish for a party, and everyone couldn't stop talking about it. The ratio of meat, cheese, and veggies can be adjusted to taste.

This turkey is incredibly moist and delicious. Even after heating up leftovers days later, the meat is still so tender, moist, and delicious. I make this primarily for Thanksgiving and have gotten nothing less than rave reviews every time! You can substitute turkey broth for chicken broth in the brine for this recipe. Brining also cuts down the cooking time.
