YummlyTake your dinner to the next level with this recipe for Sweet and Sour Ratatouille. Made with lean chicken, sliced cucumber, fresh orange, and minced onions, this heart healthy meal is topped with a tangy honey mustard sauce. The contrasting flavors of sweet honey and orange with the tang of mustard and vinegar make this a dish worth savoring. Serve over fluffy rice or combine with lettuce in a lunch wrap. This dish makes great leftovers that keep well.Food.comThis recipe has been in my family for generations and is worth the wait. Plan ahead when making this recipe because the longer you let it marinate the better it tastes! (Cooking time is marinating time)Yummly## Lettuce wraps: low-carb, keto, gluten-free and delicious. Lettuce wraps (or lettuce cups) have a lot going for them: Fresh, filling and easy to prepare, they’re a great party food and a perfect fit for many specialized diets. With some attention to the ingredients you put in, they are keto, low-carb, and gluten-free. For a weeknight meal, this dinner recipe is hard to beat. Leave out the hummus and they’re even paleo. ## A variation on Asian lettuce wraps These aren’t the P. F. Chang’s-style asian chicken lettuce wraps, with ground chicken, sesame oil, hoisin sauce and soy sauce (though, those are delicious). Instead, this recipe offers a creamy, crunchy variation on a BLT sandwich. This BLTA (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado) in easy chicken lettuce-wrap form is perfect for an easy dinner or a summer party appetizer, since it is served at room temperature. The mayo-hummus spread adds creamy texture, as well as holding everything together. ## Let’s talk about butter lettuce Butter lettuce works perfectly for this because butter lettuce leaves are thick and luscious (one might even call them buttery), as well as being the perfect size for a hand-held treat. However, if butter lettuce (or bibb lettuce or Boston lettuce, which are nearly indistinguishable from butter lettuce) isn’t available, a romaine or iceberg lettuce leaf is a good substitute. For a nutrition boost, this could even be served on tender cabbage leaves from the inner layers of a head of cabbage. ## Variations on BLTA chicken lettuce wraps This is a very adaptable recipe - ground chicken, ground turkey or ground beef, any of which you can brown in olive oil in a large skillet on the stove over medium-high heat, works well to replace the diced chicken. For an easy variation on the filling, you can add diced bell peppers, red pepper flakes or chopped cucumbers. ## But wait, I want to eat P. F. Chang’s lettuce wraps! Fair enough - try this [highly yummed P. F. Chang’s-style copycat recipe](https://www.yummly.com/recipe/PF-Changs-Chicken-Lettuce-Wraps-596804) that incorporates hoisin sauce, soy sauce, water chestnuts, green onions, and rice wine vinegar into the chicken mixture for Chinese flavors. ## Baking bacon This recipe includes a couple adaptable cooking hacks: The first is baking bacon. Eliminate splatter and the need to stand over a hot stove by cooking strips of bacon in the oven on 375º F for 20 minutes. Set a timer and forget it until your bacon’s ready. Bake the bacon on a wire rack for extra-crispy strips ## Hummus/mayo spread The other kitchen hack found in this recipe is the hummus-mayo mix: It’s a great way to add lots of creamy texture to a lettuce wrap (or a lavash wrap, tortilla wrap, or sandwich!) in a healthy, lower-fat way. The extra fiber and protein in the hummus are just a bonus, this spread is delicious. ## How to serve lettuce wraps, and what to serve them with These wraps are great for a party - wash and dry the lettuce leaves as much as two days in advance and make the filling in bulk (it’s easy to double or triple the amounts). Before serving, lay the lettuce leaves out on your serving tray and assemble them in place. If you’re serving these as a main dish for dinner, you can put the filling and the creamy hummus out in small bowls on the table with a pile of lettuce leaves, and let people assemble their own. Anything that you’d serve with a BLT sandwich is a great side dish to serve with these: potato salad, coleslaw (which allows you to keep it low-carb), fruit salad, sweet potato fries or, yes, bread.Food52Middle Eastern food, and Egyptian food in particular, relies heavily on red meat. It's a sign of generosity to be served a meal with numerous meat dishes. Which is kinda funny, because the entire Middle East is bordered by beautiful, sparkling seas full of fresh seafood. My husband hails from Alexandria, Egypt. A port city thousands of years old, named after Alexander the Great. This jewel of the Mediterranean has a long, illustrious, and incredible history spanning many civilizations. What is Alexandria best known for today, you ask? SEAFOOD, is the answer you'd get in Egypt. Fresh caught seafood, prepared simply and with readily-available ingredients is what thousands of local Egyptians look forward to eating on summer vacations in Alexandria. Fish is prepared in endless combinations -- fried, butterflied and baked, grilled with a whole wheat crust and dunked in a vinegar/water/spice bath (yes, it's a thing). This recipe is my classic anchor for an Alexandrian feast fit to serve royalty, but modified for our fast-paced western lives. I can build an entire seafood extravaganza around it, by adding shrimp, lobster, a tagine of calamari in honor of my hubby's birthday... or serve it alone midweek. Spiced, cumin-laden and zesty fresh fillets, dipped in seasoned flour and fried until crunchy. It's like fish and chips -- but way more flavorful. In our home, we serve this with tahini sauce, Egyptian seafood rice (https://food52.com/recipes/83436-egyptian-seafood-rice), and a tomato-cucumber-onion salad. We never have leftovers.

For a wow-worthy party app, try this recipe in mini muffin cups to create perfectly poppable bites.Food and WineFocaccia is the ideal crouton for a dinner salad; it’s tender yet sturdy enough to stand up to bold ingredients like the steak and Calabrian chile in this recipe.Food52For this pork torta recipe, the jicama slaw is sweet, creamy, musky and tart -- none in excess. You can substitute a Mexican queso fresco for the goat cheese.AllrecipesI was first introduced to soba noodles by my sister-in-law, who loves to make them with just tamari and green onion for seasoning. I like to use them in all kinds of vegan recipes, especially fresh salads with a flavorful dressing. Soba noodles are made with buckwheat, which is gluten-free and can be found in the Asian section of the grocery store, or Chinatown. The longer the dressing sits, the better it will be, so make it ahead of time if you can.Food NetworkT.G.I. Friday’s doesn’t exactly specialize in health food: The mega-chain is famous for bar food like loaded potato skins and Jack Daniel’s–glazed chicken wings. So, it’s no surprise that when the restaurant added veggies to the appetizer list, they were deep-fried. The dish, Crispy Green Bean Fries, hit the menu in 2006, and customers went crazy. The beans are coated in a garlicky breading, fried and served with cucumber-wasabi ranch dip. They’re a top-seller these days, and fans like Karlyn Siegwarth from Pittsburgh have been begging us for the recipe. Reps in Carrollton, TX, wouldn’t give it up, so our chefs created this perfect copy.
