Savoury Teriyaki Chicken and Veggies

This a good meal even if you're only cooking for one or two. I work nights, so single meals are important for me. I also LOVE teriyaki chicken.
You can get teriyaki sauce at pretty much any grocery store in the international isle, or an Asian grocery store. You can also make it, if you're feeling ambitious. That recipe can be found via google or any of my previous teriyaki chicken recipes.

What you need for one LARGE serving:
1 medium chicken breast (can be pre-cooked or left over)
1 cup of the rice of your choice (I like sticky rice) cooked accordingly
1/2 - 1 cup of teriyaki sauce
A pinch each of garlic salt, ground cumin, and cayenne pepper seasoning
1.5 tablespoons of cooking oil
1/3 of a white onion, chopped or sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
Any other veggies you enjoy in a stir fry

Cook your rice according to the type of rice. While you're doing this, begin sautéing your onion and garlic in the olive oil until the onion is transparent. Cut the chicken breast into bite sized pieces and add to the frying pan. Cook the chicken for a few minutes and then add a small amount of the sauce - just enough to coat everything. Continue to cook until you have a nice char on the chicken and onion.
Add a little bit more sauce and stir right before you remove from the pan.

Pour your rice into the bowl you will be eating out of and pour half of the remaining sauce on top of the rice. Add the chicken and onion and add the rest of the sauce.

    Hi Ervin!
    Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like the recipe.
    To be honest, I don't have a recipe for a stir fry sauce because I like to just use BBQ sauce or soy sauce.

Pierogies and Scrambled Eggs

Image
I absolutely LOVE pierogies, but I've always made them the same way; boil and then fry them. So this time, I decided to try something new, and pair them with some scrambled eggs for breakfast (or lunch). You will need: Ready-made pierogies (or home made, if you prefer)\ BBQ chicken seasoning Garlic salt Celery salt Two eggs (per person, I only made for me :P) 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese Butter or Pam for greasing the pan First, boil the pierogies until they are soft (cooked inside and no longer frozen). Grease a baking pan and place the pierogies on the pan. Sprinkle with chicken, celery and garlic seasoning on both sides and top with some mozzarella cheese. Broil for a few minutes, until the cheese is melted and pierogies have become slightly browned.  To make the eggs, crack them and put them in a small bowl, add a splash of milk, some BBQ seasoning, and the rest of the cheese, and mix until the eggs are all mixed together. Put in a frying pan stirring often to...

Cream cheese stuffed, bacon wrapped pork loin

Image
This is comfort food; there is nothing healthy about this.  I had a pack of nine of those small boneless pork loin chops and decided to do something super unhealthy with it! For 9 rolls, you need: 9 chops 1 package of garlic and herb cream cheese 1/2 cup of sweet BBQ sauce  1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese  1 teaspoon of garlic salt 1 pack of bacon Begin by tenderizing the meat to flatten it out. You can use whatever tools you have that work to do this; a meat tenderizer is ideal though.  Mix the cheese, cream cheese and garlic salt together in a bowl.  Spoon about a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the centre of each pork chop, and roll it up. Coat it in BBQ sauce.  Wrap two slices of bacon around each pork chop roll.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through. If the bacon is not sufficiently crispy, put the oven on broil for a few minutes.

Garlic Basil Chicken with Tomato Butter Sauce (stolen and revised)

So I started off cooking this meal exactly as the recipe stated, but I didn't have all the exact ingredients, and the flavours just weren't where I wanted them to be, so I made some changes. I'll post the link to the original recipe, and then write out what I did below. I'm sorry I don't have any pictures this time! The only downfall of this recipe is that it's a bit time-consuming. However, you could always cook the chicken ahead of time, which would help. Original recipe is here . INGREDIENTS 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts salt and pepper 2 tsp garlic salt 2 tsp lemon pepper 2 tsp paprika 1/4 cup of half&half cream ¼ cup olive oil 5-6 roma tomatoes, diced 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 small white onion, minced 3 tbsp dried basic  ¼ cup margerine 8 ounces pasta, like spaghetti, linguine, or bucatini (I used spaghettini) 1/2 cup of mushroom Ragu (if needed) INSTRUCTIONS Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and pound each p...
