Grilled Asian Salmon Recipe

This Grilled Asian Salmon Recipe is a great dish for the Easter season during Lent. This is a simple recipe that is quick to prepare with very little prep time. All the flavorings, and seasoning, seem to blend very well with the fish in this recipe. I posted this recipe as grilled, because that is the way I cooked the fish, but you could also cook the salmon using the oven broiler by placing the salmon about 7 inches from the heating element or source. The next time you decide to have Salmon on the menu give this Grilled Asian Salmon Recipe a try. Enjoy

Venison Stroganoff Recipe

Venison Stroganoff Recipe

This Venison Stroganoff Recipe caught my attention because there are a couple of ingredients in it I have never used before; this recipe calls for beef Consommé and Kitchen Bouquet. Naturally with any wild game recipe the outcome will largely be determined by how gamy tasting the meat is you are using. This recipe in its original form called serving the Venison Stroganoff over wild rice-which I do not have available so I served it over egg noodles which is a little more conventional anyway. This is a very good recipe with a little bit of tang to the flavor. it is mildly seasoned and you can have Venison Stroganoff on the table within an hour. For the meat I used venison chops but you could also use round steak depending on what you have available. If you have some venison on hand give this one a try. Enjoy

Ingredients

1 1/2 venison boneless chops or round steak

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons pepper

3 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon flour

1 cup Beef Consommé

1 teaspoon prepared hot mustard

3 tablespoons sour cream

1 dash Kitchen Bouquet

1 onion (sliced)

Egg noodles or wild rice.

Directions

1. Slice venison into 1/ 8 inch strips about 2 inches long and remove any fat if necessary.

2. Season with salt and pepper and, set aside and let the venison reach room temperature.

3. Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet. Blend in flour, then add the Beef Consommé and bring to a boil; then stir in mustard and sour cream. Bring back to a boil then reduce the heat to warm and stir in a dash of Kitchen Bouquet.

Three of the Best Hot Dog Recipes

Chicago Hot Dog

 

I was so excited when I was chosen by Glam and Hebrew National hot dogs to host a hot dog party. All Hot Dogs are not created equal, and it doesn’t matter how good the hot dog recipe is; if you don’t have a good all beef hot dog when you create it, you may not like the results.  Hebrew National Prides itself on being made with premium cuts of 100 percent kosher beef.

In my opinion they lived up to their name. The quality was excellent, and combined with the Three of the Best Hot Dog Recipes below where delicious. Usually when we have hot dogs at a party or cook out I will concentrate on one Hot Dog Recipe, but I took this opportunity to present all three. The Chicago Style Hot Dog Recipe is my son’s favorite because it is covered with delicious condiments, my Wife loves the Nacho Dogs Recipe, because of the homemade Guacamole topping, combined with the sliced pickled jalapeno slices. For me I like all three, but the Frito Dogs recipe is my favorite. The combination of a good hot dog, grilled, than covered with chili, cheese, and corn chips, is an excellent combination.

I have created all three recipes in recipe format so you can print them all, or just one at a time as you choose.

With the 4th of July coming up get prepared to fire up the grill, or lite a camp fire –get yourself some good quality Hot Dogs like Hebrew National, and give one, or all Three of the Best Hot Dog Recipes a try.

Hebrew National is also sponsoring a Facebook photo contest called “Snap & Share” giving you a chance to win a weekly grocery store gift card prize for all their summer BBQ needs. There’s also a grand prize ball game trip to New York City for two! Click Here for Details and to Enter.

Chicago hot dog recipe

 

Chicago Style Hot Dogs Recipe

Ingredients

1 all-beef hot dog

1 tablespoon yellow mustard

1 poppy seed hot dog bun

1 tablespoon sweet green pickle relish

1 tablespoon onion (chopped)

4 tomato wedges

1 dill pickle spear

2 sport peppers

Celery salt

Directions

1. Cook hot dog on grill or over open fire. Move them to a warming rack or warming oven. (The original Chicago styled is boiled for about 5 minutes)

2. Place hot dog on a steamed bun. Add condiments in this specific order- yellow mustard, relish, onion, tomato wedges, dill pickle spear, and celery salt. The tomatoes should be placed between the hot dog and the top of the bun. The dill pickle spear should be placed between the hot dog and the bottom of the bun.

Note: Sport peppers and poppy seed buns can be very hard to find-I substitute Sweet Banana Wax Peppers and it works out very well.

Burrito Pie

 

It has been awhile since I have posted a Mexican recipe, so when my wife saw this Burrito Pie Recipe and thought it looked really good; I decided to give it a try. It is pretty much like a burrito casserole just with kind of a different name. This is another simple recipe with not a lot of prep time. It is mildly seasoned, so if you like it hot, you might want to add some red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper. I prepared the recipe as is; it was very good. The next time you add Mexican to the menu, give this Burrito Pie Recipe a try. Your family will love it. Enjoy

Pulled Beef Tacos

 

This is not your average taco. This Pulled Beef for Tacos Recipe was so good I almost ate the beef roast before it got into the taco shells. Included here is the basic recipe for the slow cooker pulled beef; I have pretty much left it up to you; to top it, with your desired condiments. I used the standard toppings consisting of, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, salsa, and topped it with shredded provolone cheese. This is a mildly seasoned recipe, so season it to taste if you want to turn up the heat. Another nice feature about this recipe is, you can set it and forget it, because it’s a slow cooker recipe. Treat your family to this Pulled Beef for Tacos Recipe; you and your family will love it. Enjoy

Indian Style Curry Chicken

 

I am always open for a one dish meal; they usually have less prep time and dirty a lot less dishes. This Indian Style Curry Chicken Recipe caught my eye mainly because I don’t use Curry very often.

If you want to try something a little different give this Indian Style Curry Chicken Recipe a try. Serves 6.   Enjoy
