- Description
- This bulgogi chicken is a quick-and-easy, but very tasty, meal. You can substitute the chicken with beef or pork for variety. It only takes 30 minutes with very few dirty dishes! Serve over rice.
- Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 5 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
- Directions
- Whisk onion, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, sesame oil, sesame seeds, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Cook and stir chicken and marinade together in a large skillet over medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Notes: You can substitute peanut oil for the sesame oil if desired. Add vegetables if you wish; carrot straws and sliced mushrooms are delicious add-ins. For a little more bite, use a peppercorn medley grinder instead of black pepper.
- Cheryl's Mixed Drink Corner
- Description
- If you have an abundance of Key limes after making a classic Key lime pie, use some up to make this refreshing summer cocktail. The tart juice of Key limes makes the mojito a bit sharper and more citrusy, and the cream makes it taste like a creamy slice of Key lime pie. You’ll need a simple syrup for this cocktail, which is super-easy to make if you don’t want to buy one. You can even add some mint leaves in with it to make the mint flavor stronger.
- Ingredients
- 1/4 c. crushed graham crackers
- 3 tbsp. simple syrup, plus more for glass
- 1/4 c. fresh mint leaves, plus more for serving
- 3 tbsp. fresh Key lime juice
- 4 oz. white rum
- 1 tbsp. heavy cream
- Key lime rounds, for serving
- Directions
- Place crackers on a plate. Pour simple syrup onto another plate. Dip rims of glasses into simple syrup, then into crackers. In a cocktail shaker, muddle mint and lime juice. Fill shaker with ice and add rum, cream, and simple syrup. Vigorously shake until outside of shaker is very frosty, about 20 seconds. Fill glasses with ice and strain mojito into prepared glasses. Garnish with more mint and a Key lime round.
- Laphroaig Cairdeas Single Malt Scotch
- Description
- Bottled at a fixed strength of 52.3%, Laphroaig® Càirdeas 2023 is aged in White Port and Madeira casks. Created exclusively for Friends of Laphroaig. Our Càirdeas expression for 2023 brings together the best of much loved Càirdeas releases over recent years. The limited-edition single malt is a combination of Madeira and White Port casks. Three quarters of the whisky is matured in second-fill Madeira casks, releasing smoky, spicy, and sweet fruit flavours. The final quarter has been finished in first-fill Port casks; the majority of these are white port, adding a hint of crisp fruit and deep woodiness to the flavour. It’s a new take on Laphroaig that plays to our strengths – welcoming friends old and new.
