Citrus Ceviche
My take on the classic Peruvian ceviche. The acidity of the citrus fruit 'cooks' the fish. A nice refreshing meal on a hot summer day. It's imperative to use only freshly caught fish!

Chef John's Chicken Satay Burger
I love chicken satay: That spicy meat on a stick, marinated and grilled and served with a peanut sauce. With this recipe, I tried to get that same effect with a chicken satay burger.
