Next-Level Summer Cocktail

7/5/2022

Picture
I would like to share a refreshing summer cocktail I put together called Lush Chiaro, lol. When I’m not drinking wine, this is the most delicious thing to drink during my home events or backyard barbecues. The recipe makes one serving, but you can adjust accordingly and make more.
Picture
Lush Chiaro

1 cherry (remove stem and seed)
1 strawberry
1/2 medium lemon, cut 1 wedge

1 shot of Ciroc Summer Citrus
1/2 cup of pineapple mango juice, or as needed
1/2 cup of ice cubes, or as needed

1. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the cherry, strawberry and lemon wedge. If you don't have a mortar and pestle, use the end of a wooden spoon instead and a small bowl.

2. Remove the lemon wedge from the mortar.

3. Add the crushed cherry, strawberry with lemon juices, 1 shot of Ciroc Summer Citrus and 1/2 cup of pineapple mango juice to the cup of ice cubes.

4. Stir, taste and enjoy!

On nights when I don’t feel like spending a lot of time cooking, empanadas are my go to meal. When I say I'm making empanadas, I usually get a WooHoo! from my wife, lol. I use the empanada dough discs from the local supermarket and seasoned the shrimp with sazon goya, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, oregano and my homemade recaito. Here’s a few pics showing how I made them…

Air Fried Jerk Wings

​It couldn't be easier. A great way to cook jerk wings has become my new favorite. Trust me, air fried jerk wings are just as delicious as the traditional ways of cooking them. I'll admit that I was skeptical at first, jerk wings or chicken are traditionally cooked on a grill or smoker. Air frying should at least be in the top 5 ways of cooking wings. I will share with you my jerk wings recipe on my next blog post, here is how I air fried the jerk wings...
Place your seasoned (jerk) wings in the fryer's nonstick basket. Set to 325 degrees for 15 minutes. 

After 15 minutes, remove the basket, turn wings over and add any sides you wish. Set to 350 degrees for 10 minutes. ​

OXTAIL STEW

Happy New Year!!!! and hope you had a great holiday.
​
“This is goooood”, ...one of the compliments I get from someone when I cook oxtail stew for dinner. I’m not sure if it’s directed to me or the oxtail stew, lol.
Although I’ve made oxtail many times before, this time I added ingredients like ginger, basil, cilantro to my usual blended ingredients and herbs (thyme, onion, green pepper, red pepper, parsley, pimento) and a scotch bonnet pepper to the pot while the oxtail is cooking. Oxtail takes a long time to cook, about 4 hours, so plan accordingly and add water to your pot when needed. There’s no official recipe for my oxtail stew and I'm not a chef, lol.

OXTAIL STEW
Feel free to serve with rice and peas, collard greens or sautéed cabbage.
Serves 4.
​
3 1/2 pounds of oxtail in lime and vinegar water, wash oxtail thoroughly then drain water.
​Add seasoning to the oxtail (1 1/2 teaspoons each garlic salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, basil) along with 1/2 cup each chopped ingredients (onion, green pepper, red pepper) and 2 stems thyme. Then add your recaito mix of blended 1/2 green pepper, 1/2 red pepper, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh ginger, 2 stem thyme, 5 pimento seeds, 2 stem cilantro, 2 stem parsley, 3 garlic cloves. Add the secret ingredients, 2 tablespoons ketchup and 1 tablespoon Gravy Master Browning.
Next up: Put gloves on and mix everything together and place in the refrigerator overnight or 1 hour if you're cooking the same day.
In a large nonstick pot over high heat, add a little olive oil then oxtail and cook, stirring, for about 2 to 3 minutes, until they are dark browned. 

Lower heat to medium, add 3 cups of water and 1 whole scotch bonnet pepper, cook for 4 to 4 1/2 hours, adding water when needed.

P.S. Leave a comment below about how you make your oxtail stew. Stay healthy and be safe.

Gigi’s Perfect Noodle Dish

So Gigi made the perfect summer dinner we call the "noodle dish" when she came to visit us in June for Ailah's high school graduation. If you've eaten this dish before you know how delicious it is. Poppy said, "I remember eating my mom's noodle dish ever since my sister and I were kids..., it's AMAZING! - a one stop shop type of dish". 
I don't think it's Chinese food anymore, the taste is from another world type level, lol. She moved so fast making her noodle dish, no rules on ingredients. She created something of her own. Leave a comment below if you would like me to post Gigi’s noodle dish recipe. Enjoy! 😊

So I tried a simple and different way of eating my favorite fish (sea bass 😋). I'd highly recommend it, if you're looking for something new. You don't have to add much else to this meal, it's incredibly delicious. Dip then bite and you'll ignite flavors that lights up every tastebud possible - it could easily become your new favorite food. If you’d like me to post my homemade jerk sauce recipe, leave a comment below. Here are some photos on how I made the fish bites...
​Enjoy!
