I used to buy this garlic chile chicken from a Chinese restaurant called Kip's, in El Cajon. Most of the food there was eh, but this one dish, deep fried chicken (similar to chicken karage) then topped with about 1/4 cup of fried garlic bits, green onions, and red chile bits, was one of my favorite foods ever. I used to order two orders to go, one for our dinner, and one for my breakfast and lunch the next day. I liked it better for breakfast than I did at dinner. I miss that chicken.

Thanks everyone for the great suggestions! I knew I could count on Serious Eaters :)

I am, I love peanut butter. But I love peanut butter so much, when I had one of the Peter Pan jars with the UPC code in question during the last scare, I still ate it. The whole thing.

wunami,
Sorry, but it was Ecoli in the spinach in 06 not that that really matters.
I wasn't talking about if you loan flour to your neighbor, I don't know exactly where you were going with that. I was strictly speaking about food processed commercialy. I might not of made that clear enough.
As to you implying that I believe I should be "spoonfed" my news your waaay off. I just don't appreciate sensationaism getting in the way of much more important things, like the safety of my food.

srfchf,
I would like to hear about the FDA inspector as well.

lentil :)
Weird isnt'it?

Peanut butter is getting a bad name, unfairly. I'm still a fan, and will continue to eat my Jif and natural Smucker's without hesitation.

I'm still eating my Jif...thank goodness they're safe, I don't know what I'd do without peanut butter!

This is my go-to recipe to impress... Baked Pasta with 4 Cheeses, with baked plantains and a nice, simple salad on the side. I love the silkiness of the pink sauce of the pasta. It's important that you bake it in a 500 F oven... you could even make it for 2 in a toaster oven, but if does not go up to 500, make it in a larger oven.

I also embellish boxed risottos and no one has even thought they came from a box - I make one with Smoked Gouda and Spinach, Cherry Tomatoes and Spinach and even one with Pumpkin and roasted pumpkin seeds...

Good luck... and enjoy.

@chisai~I thought of Marcella's chicken too! My hub Loves it.
Here's a good, and impressive, salmon recipe from The Frugal Gourmet Cooks Italian. (I can't make a link like everyone else can)

1 salmon filet cut from the large end of the fish (about 1 1/2 #s) Have your fish monger skin it for you if you don't want to
4-6 12" squares of aluminum foil
2-3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and sliced into 1/4" strips, the long way
kosher salt
extra virgin olive oil

Cut the salmon into 1 1/2" pieces, crosswise. You should have about 8 pieces, each about 3 ozs.
Arrange 2 of the slices on a piece of foil, right together, cut-side down. Place 2-3 tomato strips atop the fish and sprinkle with a little kosher salt. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and wrap up the fish by forming a sealed envelope, leaving a bit of space above the fish. Crimp the edges of the foil to seal.
Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10 mins in a 400º oven. Do not overcook. You may serve this right out of the foil wrapper. Just put one package on each plate.
It has a wonderful flavor and is completely foolproof. I've also used lemon slices and capers in place of the tomatoes.

Serve with some roasted rosemary potatoes and your favorite green vegetable.
Good Luck! Let us know what you make.

I prefer the organic peanut butter and peanut butter sandwich crackers (way cheaper than Ritz) at Trader Joe's. No worries!

I'm still eating my Smucker's natural crunchy. Couldn't give it up if I wanted to.

I have eaten peanut butter-containing products since the recall. But to be honest, I did have some pause. If you look at the list, the number of companies grows on a continual basis, spanning everything from nutrition bars to Wegman's. I haven't bought a jar because I have not been in a peanut butter mood for awhile, since before the recall. Food poisoning is truly 'Serious Eats' and sometimes I think it's better to try to use stuff like this as a push to explore new things for a bit, until everything calms down.

If I explode from the 3 mini Reeces Valentine pb cups I ate, though, all of my friends here will be the first to know!
