Inspired by the Orient, this recipe is for those who like it hot! Of course, if the heat is too much for you, leave out the jalapenos. Goes wonderfully with rice or steamed veggies.


Ingredients

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
2 cloves crushed garlic
*11/2 pounds boneless chicken breast, cross-cut thinly
2 tablespoons sugar
¼ cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon fish sauce
¾ cup dry white wine
1 fresh jalapeno
1 teaspoon pepper
Slurry (Stir together with a fork or whisk about 1/8 teaspoon cornstarch and ½ cup water. Ensure water is cold to prevent sauce from clumping.)

*easier if the meat is partially frozen

Ingredients should all be cut and measured because the cooking process goes fast once everything starts hitting the pan.

Place wok or heavy skillet over high heat. Add oil and let it heat a minute give or take, then add ginger and garlic. Stir a bit to infuse flavor into oil. Add chicken and allow to fry about 2 minutes. Add sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, white wine, jalapeno and pepper, stirring often for about 7 minutes or so, or until chicken is cooked through. Add a bit of slurry to slightly thicken the juices. Serve.

Yield: 4 servings

This recipe is delicious, simple and ez to do. A side of fries or chips will complement this nicely. For something lighter, a side salad with vinegar and oil dressing.


INGREDIENTS

Burgers
1 pound ground meat (hamburger, turkey, lamb, etc)
1/4 to 1/2 cup medium diced onions (about 1/2 small onion)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar (granulated)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger root
4 onion buns or buns of choice (Tastes just as good on two slices of whatever bread you have)

Sauce

2 tablespoons orange marmalade (apricot preserves will do in a pinch)
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1/8-1/4 teaspoon gingerroot

For burgers: *Preheat pan on stove to med-high.

In a bowl, place all ingredients. With clean hands, “smoosh" them together thoroughly. Flatten the mixture out a bit in the bowl. "Score" into even portions. Then, begin separating them and form into evenly sized patties.

Place burgers in pan. Then leave them alone. Cook about 5 minutes on each side or until desired doneness is achieved.
For Sauce: While burgers are cooking, mix ingredients for sauce together in a small bowl.

When burgers are done, drain and let rest for a few minutes (about 4-5).


Next place burgers on heel of onion bun and top with a teaspoon of sauce. Place bun caps on top of burgers and serve.

*May also cook on an electric countertop grill such as, George Foreman.
