Not being in my own kitchen and having limited pantry items and spices has forced me to use unconventional ingredients to cook foods and create the taste that I like. Here's a recent meal I cooked after surveying what I had available.
I call it "Asian" because it tastes like Asian food but the only actual Asian ingredient is just a tablespoon of soy sauce. I'm using shrimp because I personally love it, but you can also use either chicken or firm tofu as well. This is not an actual recipe, I rarely write them down or work from one. But if anyone would like a recipe I can certainly figure it out (specific amounts, cooking time, etc.) E-mail if interested to- ArtFondaLee@gmail.com
Now onto the cooking-
shrimp marinade:
tapatio, or other hot sauce, balsamic vinaigrette, garlic, jalapeno (optional)
marinate for 10-15 minutes (longer for chicken, less for tofu)
stir fry ingredients:
soy sauce, brown sugar, red wine, veggies
over medium heat sautee garlic in oil
add shrimp
add veggies (pour in rest of the shrimp marinade)
add cooked rice (pour in stir fry sauce ingredients)
plate (remember- we eat with our eyes and mouth!)
enjoy!
