Week of August 24th…
MISO HONEY CHICKEN WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS & STEAMED RICE…Pour half-two thirds of miso honey marinade over chicken (saving the rest for serving) and let marinate for 20-30 min while Preheating oven to broil. Make sure your oven rack is close to the top about 6 inches away from broiler and make sure to preheat it for at least 10 min. Line a large baking sheet with foil and place chicken breast(s) and not thighs yet on one side letting excess marinade drip off. Broil for 6 min, then flip chicken breast and add the chicken thighs to the sheet pan and place brussels sprouts on the other side in an even layer and drizzle with oil if needed. Broil all until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees) and there are some charred spots, 10-12 min tossing brussels half way through. While chicken and brussels are in the oven, warm your rice. Serve chicken and brussels sprouts over rice and drizzle with remaining honey miso sauce. Enjoy.
FLANK STEAK WITH TOMATO TARTARE, POTATOES & ARUGULA…The steak has been sous vide’ed to med rare so you’ll just be searing it. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and place potatoes on a baking sheet with the oil and spread evenly. Roast for 30 min. While potatoes are in oven, heat a pan or grill to med-high heat and when its hot, sear flank steak 2-5 min per side to your desired doneness. Let rest a few minutes then slice against the grain. When potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and put arugula on top and give them a toss to wilt slightly. Serve potatoes & arugula with Flank steak topped with the tomato tartare and all the juices. Yum. (For Ahi instead: prepare the same, but heat either a non stick skillet or cast iron and when its hot, sear tuna 2-4 min per side to desired doneness. Slice and top with tartare)
CRISPY GNOCCHI WITH SAUSAGE & BROCCOLI…Preheat oven to 425 degrees. On a sheet pan toss together the gnocchi and broccoli with olive oil until well coated. If you like spice, you could also sprinkle a little crushed red pepper. Spread in an even layer. Place the little sausage meatballs on top of the gnocchi and broccoli. Roast until the sausage and broccoli are golden and crisp, 20-25 min. When you pull it out of the oven, squeeze half or whole lemon over the top and sprinkle with the parmesan. Stir until cheese has melted. Enjoy.
