Shrimp Fajita

Ingredients:

•   1 1/2 lbs shrimp, peeled and deveined
•    1/2 red bell pepper, cut into strips
•    1/2 green bell pepper, cut into strips
•    1/2 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
•    1/2 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
•    1 teaspoon dried garlic
•    2 teaspoons ancho chili powder
•    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
•    1 teaspoon ground paprika
•    1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
•    1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground black pepper
•    3 tablespoons olive oil
•    2 tablespoons fresh lime or lemon juice
•    3 tablespoons chopped cilantro

How to Make It:
•    Place the shrimp and vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet.
•    Sprinkle over the homemade fajita seasoning.
•    Drizzle with olive oil and toss to combine everything.
•    Bake in the oven at 400ºF (200ºC) until shrimp is cooked through and vegetable is tender, tossing once halfway through. Easy!
•    1. To make the sheet pan shrimp fajitas: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly oil a rimmed sheet pan.
•    2. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, and pepper, and set aside.
•    3. Arrange the bell peppers strips and onion onto the sheet pan. Top with shrimp, then sprinkle garlic and the seasoning mix evenly over shrimp and veggies.
•    4. Drizzle olive oil over top then toss everything to evenly coat. Spread on the baking sheet into an even layer.
•    5. Roast in the preheated oven, tossing once halfway through cooking until veggies are tender and shrimp have cooked through – about 8 – 10 minutes. You can crisp up the shrimp and vegetables by using the broiler for the last 2 minutes.
•    6. Wrap tortillas tightly in foil and warm in the hot oven during the last 5 minutes of cooking. A good idea is to add them on the side when you toss the shrimp and vegetables.
•    7. Drizzle lime or lemon juice evenly over the shrimp fajitas, sprinkle with fresh cilantro and red chili pepper flakes if you want. Serve the shrimp fajitas on warm tortillas with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!


Garlic Chicken and Lemon Asparagus

Ingredients:

•   3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-sized chunks
•    2 bunch of asparagus, rinsed and trimmed
•    1/2 cup butter, divided (1/4 cup for browning the chicken and 1/4 cup for the sauce)
•    1 teaspoon olive oil
•    2 teaspoons minced garlic, divided (1 teaspoon for the chicken bites and 1 teaspoon for the asparagus and sauce)
•    1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or Herbes de Provence
•    1 tablespoon Sriracha, optional
•    1/2 cup (125ml) low-sodium chicken broth
•    Juice of 1/2 fresh lemon
•    1 tablespoon minced parsley
•    Crushed red chili pepper flakes, optional
•    Slices of lemon for garnish

For the chicken seasoning:
•    1 teaspoon salt
•    1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
•    2 teaspoons onion powder


How to Make It:
1. To prepare the chicken bites recipe and asparagus in garlic butter sauce: Slice chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks and season with salt, pepper, and onion powder. Let sit on a shallow plate while you prepare the asparagus.
2. Wash and trim the ends of the asparagus, blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then soak them in ice water to stop the cooking. This way, asparagus will cook faster and evenly in the skillet. You can skip this step if you have skinny asparagus. Drain and set aside.
3. Melt half the butter (1/4 cup) with olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Gently stir-fry the chicken bites on all sides until golden brown. Lower the temperature, and add one teaspoon of minced garlic and Italian seasoning. Stir and cook the chicken bites for one minute more until the garlic is fragrant. Remove the chicken bites from the skillet and set aside on a plate. You might work in batches to avoid crowding the pan and have steamed chicken bites instead of browned ones.
4. In the same skillet over medium-high, add the remaining teaspoon of minced garlic, then deglaze with chicken broth (or wine). Bring to a simmer and allow to reduce to half the volume. Add the remaining 1/4 cup butter, lemon juice, hot sauce, and parsley. Give a quick stir to combine.
5. Add the blanched asparagus and toss for 2 minutes to cook it up. Push asparagus on the side, add the sauteed chicken bites back to the pan, and stir for another minute to reheat. Garnish the chicken and asparagus with more parsley, crushed chili pepper, and lemon slices, and serve immediately.

Teriyaki Salmon Bowl

Ingredients:

•    1 lb (450g) salmon filets, cut into chunks
•    1 cup (180g)  rice (we used sushi rice)
•    3 tablespoons rice vinegar
•    1/2 teaspoon salt
•    1 tablespoon  honey
•    1 teaspoon brown sugar
•    2 teaspoons gluten-free tamari (or soy sauce, or Nuoc Mam)
•    1 teaspoon sesame oil
•    1/2 teaspoon grated garlic
•    1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
•    1 tablespoon Sriracha, optional (or any hot sauce you like)
•    4 scallions, chopped
•    2 tablespoons sesame seeds
•    5 oz (150g) edamame beans
•    1 avocado, sliced

How to Make It:
 1. To make this easy Teriyaki Salmon Bowl: Cook the sushi rice according to the packet instructions. Add a small dollop of butter to the rice if you like.
2. In the meantime, mix the rice vinegar, brown sugar, and salt together in a small bowl, stirring well until the sugar and salt have dissolved in the vinegar. When the rice is cooked, pour the dressing over and stir to coat the rice.
3. Divide the cooked rice between two bowls so that two-thirds of each base is covered. Sprinkle rice with sesame seeds. In the remaining third, arrange edamame and sliced avocado.
4. To make the Teriyaki sauce, mix the honey, sesame oil, tamari (or soy sauce), garlic, ginger, and Sriracha together in a small bowl.
5. In a skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil and add the diced salmon filets. Brown the salmon quickly on all sides, then pour the Teriyaki sauce over it.
6. Turn the heat back up to high – stir so that the salmon is fully coated in the Teriyaki sauce and then sprinkle the spring onions over the top. Continue to cook on high heat for a couple of minutes, stirring occasionally, until the salmon is glazed and cooked to your liking. Remove from the pan and scoop the teriyaki salmon and spring onions onto the sushi bowls. Serve the Teriyaki salmon bowl with extra tamari soy sauce on the side if you like. Enjoy!
