I have the duck in the oven for the confit. I have to duck stock on the stove reducing.

Tonight is duck risotto.

I plan on a salad with it.

Stir in fish sauce, shallots, ginger, garlic, and remaining coconut milk and stir over medium-high heat until desired thickness. Pour sauce over plated fish fillets, then garnish with green onions and sprinkle with fresh ground black pepper to taste. [/FONT]

We used to just do a massive sushi delivery order.

Dinner tonight will be smothered pork chops with rice and pan wilted greens.

 

[Zhizara]

I'm having the rest of the salmon patties and creamed spinach from yesterday. I'll jazz up the white sauce with a little cream cheese and parm.

 

[Greg Who Cooks]

Sir Loin that recipe for Mahi-Mahi with Coconut Caramel Sauce looks fantastic! In fact the sauce looks like one that could enhance other dishes too. Is that your own personal recipe that you created yourself? (I want to add a credit in my saved copy.)

I was going to have Kung Pao Shrimp but in reading Sir Loin's sauce recipe I realized that I forgot to buy fresh ginger, so now I'm debating going back to the store or having a steak instead.

 

[visionviper]

Bean burritos, ravioli and creme brulee.

What can I say, it's leftovers night

 

[CraigC]

Tortilla soup tonight.

 

[DaveSoMD]

We are having golumpki (also known as cabbage rolls), beets, and salad.

 

[justplainbill]

Fried thick-cut pork chops with a coarsely grated almond 'breading', Spanish rice, and creamed spinach.

 

[Merlot]

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and corn

 

[Dawgluver]

DH is having spelunked chicken vegetable soup, I'm having slices from yesterday's Valentine's triple dipped caramel/chocolate apple.

 

[Greg Who Cooks]

Revising my earlier comment, I bucked up and drove to the store and got some fresh ginger, so my Kung Pao Shrimp is on the plate tonight. It's my own version of the recipe that I'm perfecting.

 

[Andy M.]

DH is having spelunked chicken...

What's that? Did you find it in a cave?

 

[jabbur]

PaPa John is cooking for me tonight. I'm also curious about spelunked chicken.

 

[Dawgluver]

What's that? Did you find it in a cave?

Sort of. Put on my mining helmet and dug through the freezer....
