New Recipes

I've tried a couple of new recipes recently. Here are two that were really good and will definitely be showing up again in my kitchen sometime soon!

Korean-Style Beef Bowl



Ingredients:
2 green onions
steak (I used beef tips)
2 garlic cloves
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vegetable oil
Brown Rice
carrot
bean sprouts

Cut up onions and put half in bottom of bowl with steak, pressed garlic cloves, soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and sugar. Mix well and put in refrigerator to marinate.

Cook Rice according to the box.

Peel carrots to make long thin carrot pieces.

In skillet, add vegetable oil and heat for a couple of minutes. Add beef mixture and cook for about 5-10 more minutes until meat is cooked through. Remove from heat.

Serve beef on top of rice with carrots and bean sprouts and remaining onions on top.

Chicken and Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta



Ingredients:
box of pasta (your choice)
2oz. Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes (packed in oil, drained)
Parsley Flakes
3 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
chicken (I just buy a rotisserie one and tear it into strips)

Cook pasta according to pasta.
Put Sun-Dried Tomatoes (sliced) on Paper Towel to dry.

In skillet, press garlic cloves, add oil and pepper flakes - cook on Medium heat for a couple of minutes until garlic turns slightly brown. Add chicken and tomatoes. Cook for about 3 minutes. Add pasta and parsley and half of cheese. Toss gently.

Serve pasta mixture with sprinkled remaining parsley and cheese on top.
