This is a recipe that I borrow from Lisa Burns because it is delicious!! It turned out great when I made it a couple of weeks ago. Leftovers were just as yummy as the first go around!
Ingredients:
4 C hot cooked spaghetti (8oz uncooked pasta)
1 tsp dark sesame oil
1 Tbsp peanut oil
1 Tbsp minced peeled ginger
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 C chopped broccoli
1 1/2 C vertically sliced onions
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
1 lb flank steak, trimmed and cut across the grain into long, thin strips
1 Tbsp chili paste
What to do:
1. Cook pasta according to pasta directions, omitting salt and fat; drain. Combine pasta and sesame oil, tossing well to coat.
2. While pasta cooks, heat peanut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and garlic, saute 30 seconds. Add broccoli and onion, saute 3 minutes. Add steak and saute 5 minutes or until done. Add pasta mixture, soy sauce, and remaining ingredients; cook 1 minute or until lo mein is thoroughly heated, stirring constantly.
**The grocery store was out of ginger when I made this, so I had to leave it out. It still turned out great! I also used olive oil instead of peanut oil because it's what I had. To get the authentic taste, do NOT omit the sesame oil or the oyster sauce. They are the key!

Grilled Cajun Salmon
Today was a beautiful day! The perfect day to grill out. I happened to have some salmon in the freezer that I had bought on sale a while back, and we decided to throw it on the grill for dinner tonight. It turned out great!! Here's how we cooked it...
Ingredients:
2 salmon fillets
1/2 tbsp paprika
1/2 tbsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tbsp black pepper
a bit of minced garlic
1/2 tbsp dried oregano
olive oil for drizzling
Instructions:
1. Mix together all ingredients except salmon and oil.
2. Spread the rub over over the salmon fillets, coating both sides well. Let sit for 1-2 hours to enhance flavor.
3. Heat grill on low-medium low heat. Drizzle olive oil over each side of the salmon.
4. Grill 5 minutes on each side until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Enjoy! We had it with parmesan rice and steamed vegetables. Yum!
