My favorite Chinese food ever! Chinese dark soy sauce is actually a key component. Serve with rice or noodles.
Tandoori Chicken
Try this authentic tandoori chicken that's marinated in yogurt and spices, then cooked on the grill instead of a clay oven so you can make it at home. Serve with long-grain basmati rice, grilled veggies, roasted corn on the cob, and a cucumber salad.

A delicious orange beef recipe that is crispy and sweet yet mildly spiced. This beef stir-fry recipe is great served with steamed rice and broccoli.
