I got an air fryer over the weekend and finally understand the hype...

So far I've made a ton of charred brussel sprouts with a bunch of different sauces like sweet chili and fig balsamic. Highly recommend if you haven't tried this yet. So good.

Made a healthier version of fried chicken last night and can't believe the crunch the air fryer gave it. Best cooking investment I've made...

It rocks with chicken and fish… very close in quality to regular deep fried but healthier. It sucks at some things though,… our Filipino household lives on lumpia and yeah, never trust a spring roll in an air fryer.

I love the chicken wings covered in lemon pepper thing everyone does. Fantastic

A couple posters thought I was serious about hiding my verde recipe in pm,… so,… be warned, this is NOT salsa for the weak… but it’s BOMB salsa.

-Five tomatillos, rinsed well.
-One habanero
-Four dried Chile de arbols
-three garlic gloves
-Handful of cilantro
-quarter white onion
-quarter cup water
-teaspoon salt


Take the arbols and remove the seeds by pulling off the stem and tapping the pepper until the seeds fall out. Discard the seeds.

Take the tomatillos, habanero and arbols and boil them in a pot of water. You’ll want to stir the tomatillos and try flipping them so they boil and color evenly. Once it reaches a full boil immediately turn it off and strain the tomatillos and peppers. DO NOT over boil/cook them,… it’ll make them way too bitter.

Add the other ingredients to a blender and top it all off with the boiled tomatillos and peppers and blend well.

Enjoy.
Tried this weekend… it was fire

I'm hoping that means good and not too hot?? I ask because I warned yall... its a great salsa but not for those who can't handle heat. It does seem to get milder once it cools and sits for a day or so however.
If it is too hot you can add about half an avocado... and a bit of lime juice to take back a bit of the heat.

It was great my sister loves verde so I made it for her. It does have some heat which I like but I did add some lime and lemon juice to tone it down a little. Would have went avacado with it instead but didn’t have any. Great recipe especially since I already had everything!

Trying to avoid recruiting induced crippling depression with some lemon garlic fish with rustic veggies,… dropping it all in the instant pot,… then I’ll probably cry and dream of a transfer QB

Also getting beans ready to throw in the smoker now. Ribs are already in.

Making homemade cornbread, and last night I made vinegar based bbq sauce, a blueberry cheesecake and lemon cream pie also.

It shall be a glorious feast.

What kind of smoker do you use?

Daughter in law is from Columbia. She just made us a traditional native dinner. I would describe the main dish as some type of stew with chicken. Definitely different from an American stew. I’m now going to take a nap. Lol

Aji de gallina? Or a different chicken stew?

I made Brunswick Stew this week. It originated as a way for BBQ restaurants to use their leftover smoked chickens and pulled pork from the day before. Some people add browned hamburger, but I add browned hot breakfast sausage instead. It's a very thick, meaty stew with shredded smoked chicken, pulled pork, browned sausage (optional), some chicken broth, corn, potatoes, diced onion, lima beans, and stewed tomatoes. A bay leaf or two, a dash of liquid smoke, a dash of cayenne pepper, and some Tabasco or other hot sauce, and that's it. Freezes well. I usually make 2 or 3 gallons and freeze about half. Really good stuff, especially with cornbread or a crusty French baguette. The Bishop clan is eating like kings this week!

That sounds absolutely fantastic. I'm making a steak quesadilla tonight. I've been messing around with the recipe for a while, specifically what cheeses I use. Tonight I'm using a sharp cheddar and pepper jack mix. Wanted to see if I could get it to have more of a cheese pull when I pull it. I cook the beef with Badia Taco seasoning and a small can of hot green chiles. Put down a layer of cheese, then a half slice of American cheese on each side. Top it with the beef mixture, then I use this Taco Bell Chipotle sauce I found at the store. Then another layer of cheese, and finally the half slice per side of American cheese. Then use a pastry brush to coat the outside with vegetable oil and cook for about 6 minutes on medium low per side. Its Americanized as hell but I love it.

I’ve never had it ( I’ve eaten at Taco Bell maybe three times in my entire adult life) but I’m not gonna lie. It looks good.

I’m assuming it’s actually really small but like five bucks???

I had one about every weekend in college. Either that, La Bamba head sized burrito, Powers sliders, or Omega or IHOP for the stripper breakfast.

Decent size back then. I could smash off 2 though for sure.

chimichurri AND cajun? straight fusion
It came out really freaking good,… just cast iron some onions, zucchini, peppers, cherry tomatoes with Cajun seasoning and add a table spoon or two of chimichurri as a deglazer

I love chimmi and make/freeze my own AND I enjoy cooking Cajun (shrimp/chkn thighs/andou) with veg-Cajun blackened spice with some heavy cream over pasta.

Your combo is interesting but can see it with wings. Probably not going to try that unless I eat it somewhere....
