Sichuan Chicken Stir Fry
This dish may look like a simple chicken stir fry, but the Sichuan pepper in it really makes it unique and delicious. If you haven’t had Sichuan peppercorns before, they have a slightly spicy, peppery flavor that slightly numbs your mouth. I know that sounds a little strange, but trust me it is enjoyable andContinueContinue reading “Sichuan Chicken Stir Fry”

Pad Krapow Gai (Thai Spicy Basil Chicken)

Garlic Miso Mussels
I often order mussels when eating out, but I don’t often make them at home and I really don’t know why because they are so easy to make. They need to be fresh from a good source though, because old seafood is just unpleasant to eat. I liked that this recipe had an Asian twistContinueContinue reading “Garlic Miso Mussels”
