These utterly delicious meatballs are new to our dinner rotation, but they are absolutely here to stay. I really thought that Greek Chicken Meatballs were the be-all and end-all of chicken meatballs, but Asian-Style Chicken Meatballs definitely give them a run for...
No, they’re not authentic. But yes, they’re amazing and addicting. What we refer to as a báhn mì is a fine example of French-Asian fusion food from Vietnam. It began as a Vietnamese version of the quintessential French sandwich, the jambon-buerre--AKA, ham...
Last week was Christmas. A couple of days earlier I was making my last dash through the grocery store when I found myself next to a woman frowning at the mainstream condiments. She seemed stressed. She asked me if I saw the sweet chili sauce. I told her it...
I love Asian-American takeout food. But you know what I love even more? Learning to make Asian-American takeout at home. It’s always tastier, more healthful, and less expensive than traditional takeout. Often, it’s even faster. This easy and delicious Spicy...
We've loved Ramen Noodle Salads here at Casa LCK for ages. If you’ve been to a barbecue/potluck/dinner-on-the-grounds affair in the last 25 years, chances are pretty good that you’ve had--or at least seen--ramen noodle salad before. If not, the very idea may be,...
A delicious and super quick sauce. It's tangy with a little sweet heat. Great for dipping shrimp, chicken fingers, etc. Try it on salmon and as a sandwich spread. Bang Bang Sauce Perfect for shrimp, chicken, vegetables, and as a sandwich spread ½ cup mayo, sour...
This is one of those quick-prep recipes you toss into the oven, and then don’t have to worry about for a while. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are very forgiving, and if they cook for 10 or 15 minutes longer than directed, it’s really not a big deal. Also, Asian...
Cucumber and Carrot Salad with Ginger Dressing is a staple in our house. It’s one of our go-to salads year-round, and we’re especially fond of having it with all sorts of Asian-American dishes. Princess Persnickety is a sushi fan, and Cucumber and Carrot Salad with...
Y’all already know that I love Chinese-American food almost as much as I love TexMex, and that’s really saying something. I keep Asian seasoning ingredients in my pantry so I can whip up something even better than Chinese takeout at a moment’s notice. I love that with...
I’m on a mission to use up everything in my chest freezer. For one thing, it sorely needs to be organized. I’m a nicer person when things are organized. For another thing, I’m the kind of weirdo that keeps an inventory posted on the front of my freezer so I know what...
I’ve recommended (and explained) Coconut Rice as an accompaniment to other dishes before, but I wanted y’all to be able to go straight to the recipe when you need it. You’ll only need it once though, it’s so easy to remember. In addition to being delicious, coconut...
**Lazy Chef Edition** So there I was planning this grilled-pork-teriyaki-satay-situation-with-peanut-sauce-and-everything to share with all of you. But I was totally dragging my feet and it wasn’t getting done. Y’all know I’m a charcoal grill girl, and that’s a whole...
