Well, its not really an exact recipe since I make it with what I have, but its delish and I wanted to share
Chicken "pasta" primavera, serves 3-4
1 zucchini, mediumish size
1 yellow sqush, medium
1 medium sized onion, your choice of color/type
1 large red bell pepper
3/4 - 1 bunch of asparagus (I like the super skinny stuff since it cooks better in this recipe)
1 package sliced mushrooms
1lb thin sliced chicke breasts, cut into 1inch chunks
2 slices bacon (optional), diced
2tbsp olive oil
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
1/4c fresh chopped italian parsley
1tbsp butter
tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
-Heat 1tbsp oil over medium, add chicken chunks and diced bacon (if using) and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
-Add 2nd tbsp oil to pan, saute onions, bell pepper, onions, asparagus, mushrooms for 5min. **note: if you want to use the zucchini and yellow squash like noodles, julienne and lightly steam or saute in another pan, or if you want to just do it the easy way (which is what I do), put the sliced squashes in now.
-Cook veggie mix 10 more minutes
-Return chicken and bacon to pan
-Add lemon zest, lemon juice and butter. Cook 5 minutes.
-Add the chopped parsley, red pepper flakes, salt/pepper and cook 1 final minute.
You'll notice the veggies put off liquid which when mixed with the lemon and butter makes a great sauce. You can also pit a touch of cream (1tsp or so) if you'd like, and top with lots of parmesan cheese0 -

Oven-style Smoked Pork Butt (for those that dont have a smoker, you can do this in your oven)
Oven to 225F
One large Pork Butt (KEEP THE FAT CAP ON!)
Seasoning Rub
1/4 C each:
onion powder
garlic powder
paprika
celery salt
1/8 C each:
Arbol Chili powder
Ancho Chili powder
Cinnamon
Mix your spices in a bowl until thoroughly incorporated.
On a foiled-sheet pan or casserole dish, place your pork butt.
I would advise putting the seasoning rub into a repurposed shaker.... Otherwise, rub the stuffing out of the pork butt. Make sure the entire pork butt has been massaged with a good layer of the seasoning rub.
Slow cook this in your oven for about 6 hours.
The fat cap will melt about 70% down and self-marinate the meat. The seasoned rub will create a nice 'bark'. The meat is so tender, juicy and succulent!
You can add brown sugar to this if you want the sweet - its definitely minimal on the carbs if you use no more than 1/4 C in the entire seasoning rub mix. Personally, I get that need for sweet out of my cinnamon to be honest....
This is a total Alton Brown moment: Good Eats!0 -
