Chorizo Sausage Stir Fry Recipe

Chorizo Sausage Stir Fry  Recipe

I have to say that this is one of my favorite Portuguese recipes, not only because of the awesome taste but the simplicity of making this dish. Being brought up with Portuguese Parents, I got the privilege of enjoying this sausage chorizo many times and it was prepared in many ways. The chorizo stands always from the rest of other sausages because of its deep savory rich taste that blends into any meal. 

Go ahead and try it and see for yourself, how good it will turn out and how fast it was prepared, all in one pot. Try it at your next party and see if it does not just disappear  and they will be begging for more.

Let me know how yours turned out and if you added anything different to it.




************************************************************************************************************

Recipe; 

2 lbs or so (1/2 Kilo)  - Chorizo  mild or hot, or any other sausage.


1 - Whole hot red pepper or less (option)

1 Cup - Whole mushrooms or sliced
1 Med. - White onion
1 Med. - Red pepper
2 to 3 cloves - Garlic
1/3 Cup - green onions
1/4 Cup - fresh parsley
1 Tbsp. - Cooking oil
1 Tbsp. - Smoked paprika
2 to 3 Tbsps. - Olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste.

************************************************************************************************************

Try to use the best quality chorizo that you can get. Look for a Portuguese or Spanish area, for sure  there, I know you will find them. The best ones are the ones that are not to dried out, but still soft, but still firm to the touch. Also, do check out all the other varieties, for your other dishes. 

As for me, there really is nothing better than having red peppers and mushrooms together with the sausage. For the flavors  just come together and make this dish perfect. Go ahead and add more veggies if you like, after all "it's your dish".

How hot do you want it, that depends on you. If you choose the spicy or hot sausage, then reduce the hot red pepper or add none. When I use the pepper for this dish I like to add the seeds to give off a hotter experience. Always taste the chorizo beforehand, so there will be no surprises to its spiciness. 

There you go, all in one pot. I like to bring the pan to the table  with some nice crispy buns and just let everyone dig in and enjoy the meal.

This is my Western version of Tuna Sushi. It is easy and convenient because it uses can tuna. Go ahead and see how easy and good it is.

When it comes to making sushi at home, almost everyone thinks that it is an impossible task. When it is one of the easiest things to make that can give you so much satisfaction and everyone will praise you for it. Try it here now and see just how easy it is to make, you really can not go wrong. 

Please let me know how yours turned out and/or did you add anything else to it. 

************************************************************************************************************

Recipe; 

Makes 4 rolls;

1 - Can of  chunk Tuna (albacore or same) in oil or in water.

1 Pkg. of  Nori
1 Cup - Pre-ready Sushi rice

1 to 2  Tbsp.  - Mayo 
1 to 2 squirts -  Lemon juice
2  Tsp. - Wasabi

1/2  Sweet red pepper
Few stems of green onions
Bunch of parsley leaves

Pepper to taste


Homemade Sushi rice

1/4 Cup - White vinegar 

1/2 Tsp. - Sugar

For more information, please see video below;


************************************************************************************************************

Here you can add just about anything you would like to this tuna.

Try to toss the fish instead of a stir, so the fish can be flaky and not mashed.

As for the rice, you can prepare your own or get the pre-made sushi rice that you just bring to a boil and it is ready. 

Remember to leave the nori open on the top part so it will stick together on the roll when rolling it. The bottom part does not matter. 

Start by rolling the nori over the fish and veggies, 

keeping the everything under the rice/nori.

 Press down on the roll, then bring roller back.

Roll again, press down 

and bring the roller back. 

Roll again, to finish, 

so easy you do it by hand.

Press again and it is done. 

Cut the Sushi in bite size pieces. 

Remember to show off your work, 

make it your master piece.

Creamy Scalloped Potatoes

Creamy Scalloped Potatoes

Nothing goes better then these potatoes as a side dish to your main meal. In fact I usually have them just as they are, with nothing else for they are that good. 

I know your whole family and friends will keep asking you for more and why not have some extra on hand for they freeze very will. Just  pop them into your microwave and in a few minutes, you have some extra to go all-around a second time. 

After all,  it is really only a three ingredience  recipe and it can be made in no time and even faster if you have the readymade Boursin cheese on hand. 

Please let me know how yours turned out and did you add anything else to it. 

***********************************************************************************************************


Recipe;

1 1/2 Lbs. -  Potatoes

1 Pkg. - Boursin cheese
1/3 Cup - Whipping or heavy cream
Whole milk as needed
1/2 Med. - Onion
Salt to taste


Homemade Boursin Cheese 
1 Pkg. - Plain cream cheese
1/2 Cup - Butter
1/2 Tbsp. - Garlic salt
1/2 Tbsp. - Oregano
1/2 Tbsp. - Basil (Option)
1/3 Tbsp. - Dill
1/2 Tbsp. - Marjoram
1/2 Tbsp. - Thyme


For more information, please see video below.




***********************************************************************************************************

That depends on the slice. I like to slice them as thin as possible for in this way then cheese bonds better to the potatoe and it cooks a lot faster. 

Also in this manner it helps the dish to become more creamy and smooth by blending in better with the sauce. The thinner  the better, by hand or machine, it will turn out awesome. 

Boursin cheese can be found in any large grocery store, you should have no problems getting it.

Now, I prefer to make my own and in this way I can add in what I like to make it better for me.

Add only a little bit of milk at a time. We do not want the cheese too thick nor too watery.

Keep on whisking it for a few minutes until all the lumps are gone and it becomes very smooth. 

Adding the potatoes does not have to be a chore, just make sure every layer is reasonably covered. If it makes your life a bit easier then you can double up on the layers and that will  be fine. 

Not all ovens are the same and operate at different temperatures, so please keep an eye on the dish. 

If you see that after about 3/4 of the baking, that the top is becoming too brown, too fast, then lower the temperature a little bit.

Chicken Pineapple Salad  - (Salatka Z Ananasemi Kurczakiem)

Of all the salads that I have made, this one has to be one of my favorite ones. Now Girlfriend is Polish and of course she was the one that showed me how to make this recipe. it is a great side dish, but I wanted to make it a complete meal, so I added the pasta to it, and there you go, an awesome dish. 

I will not try again to give this dish it's Polish name for in the video you could hear that my Polish was horrible. Well, any way you pronounce it, it is a great dish. 

Please let me know how yours turned out and if you added anything to it.



**********************************************************************************************************

Recipe:

1 Lb. -  Chicken breast

1 Med. - Diced onion
1/4 Cup - Sweet red pepper
1/2 Can - Pineapple (drained)
1 Can - Sweet whole corn (drained)
1 to 2 Tbsp. - Fresh parsley
3 to 4 Tbsp. - Low-fat Mayo

Salt and pepper to taste.

1/2 Pkg. - Bow or any pasta


For more information, please see the video below. 




**********************************************************************************************************

Want the best tasting chicken dish, then use  a free range chicken that I call "Farmers Chicken".

These chickens are not locked up in a cage and are free to roam around  outside and inside, also they are feed whole grain feed without any hormones or any other fast growth enhancers. 

Sometimes it is hard to know when the chicken has been cooking right through into the middle. Even if it is brown on the outside, that does not mean it is cooked.

Take the largest piece and just cut a bit and take a peek inside. In this way, you will be sure that it is done and ready for the salad.

Here I have chosen a bow pasta, for me I think this looks best in the presentation of the salad. 

Now you can really use any type of pasta that you want or prefer. How about trying it with potatoes instead. The choices are endless. 

I like to keep my weight always under control so I am using a  low-fat mayo, but if you prefer then go ahead and use the normal one. 

If you want you can use half mayo and half sour cream or buttermilk, it is your choice how you would like this dish. 

Add anything that you heart desires at this point, after all, it's your salad and you should have it your way.

Creamy Chicken And Broccoli Pasta

Creamy Chicken And Broccoli Pasta

I really like this recipe and I find myself making it over and over again. Really this pasta dish can be made in a few minutes and while the pasta is being cooked, it will be ready for it at the same time to finish off with an outstanding dish. 

The chicken blended with the cream cheese, comes together just perfect in a way that your Family and friends will keep asking you for more. There is really no way any person can mess up this recipe and it will always turn out awesome. 

Please let me know how yours turned out and did you add anything to it to make it yours. 



**********************************************************************************************************

Recipe;

1/2 Package -  Any Pasta

1 Lb.  - Chicken breast

4 Cups - broccoli Florets (flower)
1/2 Cup - Cream cheese with garlic
1/2 Cup - Milk
1/4 Cup - Water
2  Tbsp. -   Chicken seasoning
2  Tbsp. -  Olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste.

Options;
1/4 Cup - Heavy cream
Any favour of cream cheese


For more information, please see video below; 



**********************************************************************************************************

When you are making the dish, remember that you are not limited to just using a chicken seasoning mix, you can add almost any seasoning or any pre-packaged soup mix. 

Go ahead, be a brave person and try using a taco, pizza, and/or a kebab mix, I am sure it will surprise you just how many combinations and choices you will have. 

I am using here only about 1 pound of chicken breast for i is just perfect for two people. Now you can double the chicken and the ingredients for more servings.

also, this recipe  freezes very well and you could add some to smaller containers and heat them up when you need it. 

The size of the broccoli is really a personal thing on the cut of the flower. Too big and it will be hard  for some to eat, too small and it will lose its flavour of  the dish. 

Also removing most of the stem will keep it from becoming a little on the bitter side. Keep the leftovers to make a veggie stock. 

Here in this recipe I am using a cream cheese that has some garlic in it. Next time  try it with different types of  flavour and you will see how diversified this dish can be. 

When you drain the pasta, please do not run water on it, because we want to keep all the starch in order to make our sauce more naturally thicker. 

Mix the sauce mixture together or pour it on the pasta, either way it will always turn out awesome.

This broccoli salad is so easy to make and do not let the raw recipe fool you, for the combined taste of the fresh veggies with a very smooth cream sauce blended with the sweet cranberries out of the is world. 

This can be served with Dinner or Lunch, bur rest assured that it can go on the side of any dish. Try making a lot and use it for a Party or Get together they will love you for it. 

When I made this dish, the only problem I had is that it disappeared real fast and puff it was gone, so please make some extra. This will also hold in the fridge for a day or so and it still will  be fresh and awesome. 

Please let us know how yours turned out and if you added anything else to it. 

********************************************************************************************************* 

Recipe; 

2 Cups - Broccoli Florets (flower)  2 small heads.

1/4 Cup - Red onion
1/4 to 1/2 Cup - Carrot
1 Lg. - Red apply
1/4 Cup - Fresh parsley
1/4 Cup -  Dried sweet cranberries
1/3 Cup - Low-fat Yogurt
1/4 Cup - Low-fat Mayo
2 Tablespoon - Lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon - Sugar

Salt and pepper to taste.


Options;
1/4 Cup - Raisins

For more information, please see Video below: 



********************************************************************************************************* 

What could be better then fresh veggies mixed with a smooth velvet sauce that just blends in perfectly with a touch of sweetness of dried cranberry's. 

Neat trick,  just use your peeler to cut smooth perfect slices of the carrot. In this way, they actual will taste better,  it will be  tender and sweet.  

The size of the broccoli flower should  "bite size", but that will depend on you on how  big or small you want it. 

Remember to save the stock and bits to make a homemade veggie stock. I usually  store all the leftover veggies parts in a plastic bag in the freezer. 

Here I am using dried cranberries, but you can really use whatever your heart desires. Sometimes times if I am in the mood, I add some raisins  or walnuts or both.

Go ahead and make it your way.

Classic Baked Beans - Thick and Creamy

Classic Baked Beans - Thick and Creamy 

How can something so simple that is made in one pot be so delicious  and easy to make. I just love beans, really all kinds from the smallest to the big butter beans, I can eat them all day.

This recipe is more of the North America type with contains a very simple recipe that comes together  with the sweetness of the molasses and the sugar in a smooth rich sauce. If you want some cooked beans that are more of the Mediterranean  type then just look below and  see the video and I know you will enjoy it as much as this one.  Anyone you chose I can assure you that your Family and Friends will thank you for it and ask for more.  

Please let me know how yours turned out and  did you add anything more to it. 

**************************************************************************************************************

Recipe

3 Cans - Read Kidney Beans  Or Other

1/3 Cup - Bacon
1 Lg. -  Onion
1 Cup - Beer
3 Tbsp. - Sugar white or brown
1 Tbsp. - Maggie or Worcestershire sauce.
2 Tbsp. - Tomato paste
2 Tbsp. - Molasses
1 Tbsp. - Mustard

For further information please see video below.




**************************************************************************************************************

Here I was using what I call a "hearty Bacon" that I have to slice myself. I just like the bacon to be a little more chunky then the pre-cut flat kind. 

Now go ahead and add your favorite bacon from hickey to golden maple for it's up to you. Or just do not add any bacon and have it as a veggie dish, anyway you make it, it will be awesome.  

I like to use white sugar in almost everything that calls for a sweetener, but here,  it does not really matter because I added the Molasses so it does even out the taste. Now if you want just go ahead and add brown sugar or even honey if you want. 

Don't forget that if you are using the beans from the can to drain the water from it for we want a nice thick sauce not a watery one. Also please make sure that you use the thick bean syrup from the bottom, that's called rich flavor. 

If you want to use dry beans, then all the better. Just add water to the beans and let it soak overnight before using. 

Did you know that by adding some cumin that it will cut down that gassy feeling that some people gets after eating beans.

This is exactly what we want when it comes out of the oven as a finished dish. We want it to have a smooth rich creamy sauce with tender beans. 

If you find that your sauce is to watery then just give it little more time in the oven with the lid off. Please keep an eye on it and give it a stir now and then. Keep an eye on it,  it will become thick very fast and it could burn on the bottom.

Potato Chips Omelet - Something Different In Breakfast

Potato Chips Omelet -  Something Different In  Breakfast 

Well my Girlfriend asked  me to go into the Kitchen and make her a Breakfast that was something new, that was never seen and it had to be real tasty. Now I knew that she just loves my omelets for Breakfast and she has never got tired of them, so I decided to make one, but how and with what. Looking thought the  cupboards and the fridge I came across a half opened bag of potato chips. Humm !! , I never looked back.

The potato chips were perfect for they were already seasoned and  "yup" they were potato at the least, so I put my skills to the test. I made them, but found out that I had to flip the omelet because of the saturated chips to get it to be cooked on both sides through and through. 

So I gave it to her but I did not tell her what had I done or added to it. She loved it but could not figure  out what was in the eggs that made it tasty and flavorful. Only when she finished it and with a little bit of begging  I told her that it was her favorite   potato chips that was added. Boy !! what a surprise did she get, the expression on her face was well worth it. 

So now I have made this Potato Omelet over and over again and I used many types of chips from the plain to the garlic and onions. It all turned out awesome, our Breakfasts will never be the same. 

I hope you try it and get back to me on how yours was done....

**************************************************************************************************************


Recipe;

2 to 3  - Large eggs

2 to 3 hand fulls of your favorite potato chips
1/2 to 1 Tbsp. - Parsley
1/2 to 1 Tbsp. - Chopped chives or green onions.
1 to 2 Tbsp. - Cooking oil
Pepper to taste.
Splash of milk



For more information please see video below;



**************************************************************************************************************

Here I was using  regular  chips, natural with only salt added. So add your Favorite one and it can rally be anything from  ketchup to hot chilies chips . There is so many types that you can have a different omelet everyday for a month or longer. 

Chives I find gives off a nice fresh onion taste, but you can add whatever you like at this point for after all it's for you, right...? 

When stirring  the chips with the egg, please try not to break them up and turning them into a mash that will lose it's texture in the omelet. 

Also give it a little time for the egg mixture to soak completely into the chips. 

When you see the egg has been cooked to your desire, then give a flip to cook on the other side. Then turn off the heat and the hot pan will be enough to finish cooking your omelet without over cooking it. 

Voila !!, the Potato Chips Omelet that your whole Family and friends will love and keep asking for more.
