Pineapple Baked Rice (Main Course for Chinese New Year)
Pineapple baked rice uses a pineapple skin as a bowl, stuffing it with fried rice. After you bake it for 15 minutes, the pineapple flavor will go into the rice and your whole house will be filled with pineapple aroma! This is great for kids. It has vegetables and a light, sweet taste . You may add cheese on top of the rice if you like. I personally don't like to add cheese, I want to keep the dish simple and original. I serve it as a main course for Chinese New Year.
Traditional French Canadian Tourtiere
Originally from my grandma's recipe box, the secret of this delectable Christmas treasure is found in the ground cloves and chicken seasoning. We've always made our tourtieres en grand (in large quantity), as they freeze great making them a terrific quick fix throughout the busy holiday season!
Chicken Adovada
Here's a "low and slow" New Mexican chicken recipe inspired by Mexican carne adovada, featuring chicken thighs simmered in a deeply flavored chili sauce. Chicken is browned on one side only, for the Maillard reaction to add its flavors to the dish, and will finish cooking and take on a deep color as it simmers. Serve with soft corn tacos, crumbled cheese, cilantro, onion and lime slices. If you prefer other toppings, go ahead and enjoy them!
