Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 7 servings

  • 5 large eggs

  • 1 cup white rice flour

  • 1 cup soy sauce

  • 1 cup chopped green onions

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ⅓ cup cornstarch

  • 6 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 ½ tablespoons salt

  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips

  • 4 cups oil for frying, or as needed

Directions

  1. Mix together eggs, rice flour, soy sauce, green onions, sugar, cornstarch, garlic, salt, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Add chicken; stir to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

  2. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  3. Working in batches, cook battered chicken in hot oil until golden brown and crisp all over. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain fried chicken on a paper towel-lined plate.

Lemon Garlic Butter Baked Cod

Lemon Garlic Butter Baked Cod

This baked cod is a fast-to-prepare main dish. I like to boil some baby gold potatoes and mash them while the fish bakes, then serve the fish over mashed potatoes on a bed of lightly wilted spinach. The luscious butter sauce adds flavor to both the potatoes and spinach.

A great twist on the classic Nanaimo bar, these no-bake cherry Nanaimo bars are loved by my whole family.

Authentic Paella Valenciana

Authentic Paella Valenciana

A traditional paella Valenciana. I lived in Spain for two years where I was taught the art of making paella which originated in Valencia. I haven't found anything on here which is even close to authentic, so I thought I would add this recipe for those who would like to try a taste of Spain. First and foremost you will need a special paella pan called a paellera or just a paella. Trust me after you taste this you'll be glad you bought the special pan.

Arepas de Queso

These arepas have a crispy crust while the cheese inside stays melty and gives you that cheese-pull that everyone knows and loves.
