Asian Chicken Canoes

Okay, they are basically lettuce wraps, but really , don't they look like a canoe ? This is a completely gluten free meal that has been researched and tested. There are also no ingredients that have high fructose corn syrup in them (IBS sufferers). Shallots can be removed if you what a totally low FODMAP rating. I find that I am not bothered by the small amount of shallots in the meal, your choice. The empty canoes This is a somewhat laborious meal in the big picture. The prep for the chicken and the Nuro'c Cham sauce is time consuming. The actual cooking times are short and together all of your efforts will produce an amazing meal. For the meal we will be having the Asian chicken lettuce canoes with various sauce options. On the side will be Asian style rice with Oyster mushrooms and sauteed Daylily Buds ( see previous post ).

Daylily Buds.

Yes you heard me right.  I never know what I'll come across that leads me to another cooking adventure. Today's new journey started at our local farmers market this morning. We have been fortunate to become friends with various vendors. One of these is Caleb C. owner of Sasquatch Farms, a local grower of fine produce.

  Keeping with our "tradition" of Lobster on New Years Day, I made broiled Lobster tails tonight. The recipe basics are from our friend (thanks Evelyn) and fishmonger. She splits the tails after hand picking them for us, and pulls the meat up and out of the shell. Thus the meat can sit on the shell as it cooks. The arrangement of the tail fins is her idea as it makes them look nice (presentation). Inside the shell I stuffed 3 fresh Meyers lemon tree leaves. Then I sprinkled black truffle sea salt and ground fresh pepper on both sides of the meat. Next I set the shell and tail fins in the pan, laid the tail meat on top and put lemon zest and a good slice of premium butter on top.  Broil in your oven, rack mid level until done (135 degrees internal). Served with lots of melted butter. Sides tonight were broiled fresh local shrimp, cucumber salad, with a dipping sauce (for the shrimp) of Black truffle hot sauce and Ranch dressing mixed into yumminess ... Finished product W
