Recipes Cookbook - Sweet and Spicy Sriracha Baked Chicken Wings

Sweet and Spicy Sriracha Baked Chicken Wings |#Slowcookerrecipes #Easydinnerrecipes #Healthydinnerrecipes #Crockpotmeals #Bbqideas #Hotwingsrecipe #Asianchickenwings #Friedchickenwings #Saltandvinegarchickenwings #Asianwingsrecipe #Stickywings #Bakedchickenwingsbuffalo


Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken wings
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • For the sauce:
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely grated
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup Sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, for garnish
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. Dry the chicken wings thoroughly with paper towels, pressing down hard to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
  2. Place the chicken wings in a large bowl; set aside. In a small bowl combine the melted butter, sesame oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Pour this mixture over the wings and using your hands, toss well to coat. Spread the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake the wings until browned and crisp; 50-55 minutes, using tongues to flip them over halfway.
  4. In the meantime, make the sauce.
  5. For the sauce :
  6. Melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat. Once it's melted, add the crushed red pepper and ginger; cook for a minute, then add in the honey, Sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, and vinegar. Bring the mixture to light boil, stirring constantly, then stir in the cornstarch; cook just until thickened up - about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  7. When the wings have finished baking, carefully remove the tray from the oven and set aside. Increase the oven temperature to the broiler setting. Carefully remove the wings from the baking sheet and transfer to a large, heatproof bowl. Pour the warm sauce over the wings and gently toss to coat. Drain any excess oil from the baking sheet, then transfer the wings back to the prepared sheet and place the pan in the oven for 4-5 minutes. Stay near your oven during this time; the broiler acts fast. Carefully remove wings from the oven and transfer them to a large serving platter. Sprinkle the wings with sesame seeds, cilantro, and more honey (if desired); serve with lime wedges and lots of napkins.

Recipes Cookbook - Super Easy Egg Keto Breakfast Muffins









Super Easy Egg Keto Breakfast Muffins |#Ketorecipeseasy #Ketodietrecipes #Nocarbdiets #Lowcarbbreakfast #Ketosnacks #Ketogenicdiet #Ketocheeseburgercasserole #Ketocasserolerecipes #Ketobreakfastrecipes #Easyketorecipes #Lowcarbdinner #Lowcarbtacocasserole









Ingredients

  • 10 Eggs
  • 6 Ounces (1/2 Package) Turkey Bacon
  • 1 Cup Spinach (Fresh or Frozen-Use 1/2 Cup Thawed & Drained Frozen)
  • 1/3 Cup Sharp Grated Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 Green Bell Pepper
  • 1/4 Cup Green Onion
  • Butter
  • Salt & Pepper






Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375
  2. Fry bacon & allow it to cool.
  3. Rinse the spinach & dice bell pepper & onion.
  4. Use the butter to grease a 12 cup muffin tin.
  5. If you’re using frozen spinach and its still soggy from defrosting, set it in a strainer in the sink & take a towel or (several) paper towels & press down to soak up any water remaining. This will keep your eggs from being runny!
  6. Crack those eggs open & start beating them in a glass bowl. Or a plastic bowl. (Pro Tip: The bowl doesn’t really matter! What matters is you avoid a shell situation!!! Try not to chip an egg shell off into that bowl!)
  7. If you’re not in too much of a hurry you can beat the eggs for about two minutes.
  8. If you are late already, go ahead & start adding your ingredients.
  9. Just toss in the spinach, cheese, bell pepper, and whatever is left of the bacon. I know you ate some of it.
  10. Mix all of that up until you just can’t take it anymore & then it’s time to fill your muffin cups.
  11. Fill each cup about 1/2 to 2/3 full. If you overfill you will have a oven cleaning project this weekend that you do not want.
  12. Bake for 15 minutes!

Recipes Cookbook - Lemon Blueberry Cake

Lemon Blueberry Cake |#Lemonpoppyseedcake #Bundtcakedecoratingideas #Howtofreezeblueberries #Cheesecakecake #Cupcakecakes #Dessertrecipes #Blueberrypiecookies #Freshblueberryrecipes #Blueberryhandpies #Blueberrylemonheavendessert #Blueberrydessertrecipes #Fruitdesserts



Ingredients

  • Blueberry filling
  • 4 heaping cups blueberries, fresh or thawed (600g)
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar (200g)
  • juice of 2 lemons
  • Lemon cake
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (360g)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (113g)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (120ml)
  • 1+3/4 cups granulated white sugar (350g)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk (240ml)
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (120ml)
  • 2 vanilla beans* (or 2 tsp vanilla extract)
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • Lemon cream cheese frosting
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (226g)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, room temperature (8oz / 226g)
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (240g)
  • 1-2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (15-30ml)

Instructions

  1. Make the blueberry filling: In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the blueberries are soft and the sauce has thickened up and is reduced by 1/3, about 5-10 minutes. Stir constantly. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. It will thicken as it cools.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line the bottom and the sides of two 8" (20cm) baking pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
  3. Make the lemon cake: In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt and stir to combine. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl with a stand or handheld mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat butter, oil, and sugar on medium speed until creamy for about 2 minutes. Add 1 egg at the time and mix until fully incorporated. Alternately add dry ingredients, milk, dry ingredients, lemon juice, and end with dry ingredients. Stir just until combined. Add vanilla* and lemon zest and stir to combine. ** Divide batter into the two prepared baking pans equally. Bake for 28-32 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Don't overbake or the cake will be dry. Let cool to room temperature.
  4. Make the lemon cream cheese frosting: In a large mixing bowl, using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, whisk butter on medium speed until creamy. Add cream cheese and whisk until smooth and combined. Sift in powdered sugar and stir until well combined and creamy. Add 1 tbsp lemon juice at the time and stir until smooth and creamy. The frosting should be creamy but firm enough to frost the cake with an offset spatula. If the frosting is too soft, add more powdered sugar. If the frosting is too firm, add more lemon juice. Watch the video and the pictures above to see the consistency of the frosting.
  5. Assemble the cake: Cut a thin layer off the tops of your cakes to create a flat surface if needed. Then cut each cake in half horizontally. Place one cake layer on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread 1/4 of the frosting over the cake. The frosting should be higher around the edges that it holds the blueberry filling inside the cake (watch the video and the step-by-step photos for better understanding). Layer with 1/3 of the blueberry filling (where the frosting is lower). Repeat two more times. Place last cake layer on top and lightly frost the outside and the sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. Chill 4 hours in the fridge. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 4 days.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz tempeh (package in block form)
  • Marinade:
  • 1 ½ teaspoons garlic , finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Greek oregano (use regular oregano if you don't have Greek)
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons Tamari , low sodium if needed (or soy sauce for non gluten free version)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (see notes)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 cup veggie broth , low sodium if needed
  • Simple Oven Potatoes:
  • 2 red or yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons veggie broth or aquafaba, or drizzle of olive oil (see notes)
  • To serve:
  • 8 pita bread
  • 2 fresh tomatoes , sliced
  • ½ red onion , sliced
  • 2 cups lettuce , sliced (optional, not a traditional topping)
  • Vegan Tzatziki

Instructions

  1. The day before or early that day:
  2. Cut the block of tempeh in half width wise so it makes two shorter blocks.
  3. Boil in a pot of water for about 20 minutes. This cuts the bitterness from the tempeh.
  4. Meanwhile, make marinade by combining everything in a large container.
  5. Once the tempeh is done, allow to cool. Then cut into thin slices, about 1/8 inch thick. Using a very sharp knife will make this easier.
  6. Add thinly sliced tempeh into the marinade and allow it to soak for at least 4-6 hours, overnight is best.
  7. Next day or later that day:
  8. Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C).
  9. Take tempeh slices out of the marinade (save it!) and spread them out in a thin layer in a 9 x 13 baking dish.
  10. Gently pour about 1/4 cup of the marinade over the tempeh slices.
  11. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are brown.
  12. Meanwhile, slice the potatoes into thick french fry sized slices. I keep the skins on but you can peel them if you prefer.
  13. Place them in a bowl and cover with water to help remove some of the starch. Allow to soak for 5-10 minutes.
  14. Prep the tomatoes, red onion, lettuce and make tzatziki if you haven't yet.
  15. Drain the potatoes and pat dry. Put them back in the bowl.
  16. Add broth, aquafaba or oil (whatever liquid you prefer) and salt. Mix well.
  17. Once tempeh gyro slices are done, remove from oven and cover with foil to keep warm. Set aside.
  18. Turn the oven up to 450 F (230 C).
  19. Spread the potatoes over a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
  20. When the potatoes are done, warm the pita bread in a damp towel for 2-3 minutes to soften.
  21. Build your gyros with the tempeh gyro slices, potatoes, tomatoes, red onion and lettuce if preferred.
  22. Drizzle tzatziki over the top and devour!

Whole30 Steak Bites with Sweet Potatoes and Peppers |#Cookingrecipes #Dinnerrecipes #Healthyrecipes #Favoriterecipes #Fooddishes #Yummyfood #Whole30mayorecipe #Mayonnaiserecipe #Homemademayo #Simplemeatballs #Paleomayonaise #Paleomayo

Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato (about 12 ounces) diced into 1" pieces
  • 1 tsp sea or kosher salt
  • 1 lb flat iron steak diced into 1" pieces
  • 3 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 bell peppers seeded and diced into 1" pieces
  • 4 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Place the diced sweet potatoes into a microwave safe bowl, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Cover with a plate and microwave on high until just barely tender, 4-6 minutes. Stir once halfway through. The potatoes are ready when you can piece one with the tip of a knife and meet just a bit of resistance. Take care not to overcook at this stage or they'll turn out mushy later.
  2. Heat a 12” skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and heat until shimmering. Add the steak in a single layer. Cook, turning every two minutes, until the pieces are browned and the center is medium, about 10 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet using a slotted spoon and set aside onto a plate.
  3. Add the third tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add the sweet potatoes, toss to coat in the fat and cook until browned, stirring occasionally, until browned, 3-4 minutes.
  4. Make a well in the center of the pan and add the garlic. Sautee, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  5. Add the bell pepper and scallions and toss with the potatoes. Sautee, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are bite tender, 3-4 minutes.
  6. Add the steak and juices back to the pan along with the coconut aminos. Toss all ingredients and cook an additional 1- 2 minutes until the liquid has evaporated.
  7. Add the pepper and cilantro, toss, and remove from heat. Portion onto plates, top with additional fresh cilantro if desired, and serve immediately.

Recipes Cookbook - The Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls Ever!

The Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls Ever! |#Easycinnamonrolls #Thebesthomemadecinnamonrollsever #Homemadecinnamonrolls #Dessertrecipes #Cookingrecipes #Bakingrecipes #Dessertrecipes #Bakingrecipes #Homemadedesserts #Pauladeencinnamonrolls #Foodrecipes #Copycatrecipes

Ingredients

  • Dough
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1 tablespoon instant dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • Filling
  • 1/2 cup salted butter melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • Glaze
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup salted butter softened
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm milk, yeast, sugar, salt, butter, and eggs. Add in flour. Using a dough hook, turn the mixer on to a low speed.
  2. Once the flour starts to incorporate into the dough, increase the speed to a medium range. Add more flour as necessary so that the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. The dough mixture should be tacky, but not stick to your hands. It should be soft. Add more or less flour until the dough reaches the desired consistency. The amount of flour you add in bread making is always an approximation and you should go by feel.
  3. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased mixing bowl. Cover with a towel and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
  4. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Punch down the dough and roll into a 12inch by 18inch rectangle.
  5. Brush the dough with 1/2 cup melted butter. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle on top of the melted butter. Roll up tightly lengthwise so you have one long roll. Use plain dental floss or a sharp knife to cut the dough into 12 one-inch slices.
  6. Place the slices onto a lightly 9x13 pan. Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake the rolls for about 14 minutes, until just kissed with brown on top.
  8. While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the cream cheese glaze by using a hand mixer to whip together cream cheese and butter in a bowl until light and fluffy. Whip in powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Add enough milk to achieve a drizzle-like consistency.
  9. Frost the rolls while still warm. Serve immediately or cool and store. Stays good for 4 to 5 days.
