Baked Yams With Cinnamon-Chili Butter

Posted by MarraMamba  

I made these for a Thanksgiving dinner with our neighbors. My husband and I really liked it a lot, although he said maybe a touch of brown sugar in the butter might make it even better. I think our neighbors preferred the candied yams that they... — The Portugarians Nov 21, 2009

No-Nonsense Chuck Eye Steak

Posted by Bill Hilbrich  

Absolutely delicious! We bought some of these steaks on sale (for less than $2 a pound!) and froze them about a month ago. I needed something quick for dinner last night, so I defrosted one on the counter and whipped up this very easy recipe. Our... — The Portugarians Nov 5, 2009

Homemade Beef Jerky

Posted by Cindy in PA.  

I'm not a fan of beef jerky but my husband really likes it. We don't buy it often because it is so expensive, so I figured why not try to make some. After the long awaited 6 hrs in the oven at 170 (as low as my oven would go), it was ready. My... — The Portugarians Jul 22, 2009

Island Pork Tenderloin (Optional Salad)

Posted by Mrs Goodall  

Love it! Like others, we only made the pork, not the salad. The heat was just right. It has a noticeable zing, but it dissipates quickly. The sweet and spicy glaze was just what we imagined. The cinnamon and cumin undertones were awesome. Great... — The Portugarians Jul 20, 2009

Most Incredible No Fail Pie Crust

Posted by Karen=^..^=  

This makes a delicious tender flaky crust. I used the recipe tonight for a chicken pot pie that I made with leftover grilled chicken thighs. I used lard for the shortening to make a nice savory crust and it was fantastic. I will be using this... — The Portugarians Jul 12, 2009

My Big Brother's Bratwurst Wraps

Posted by MadzMom  

These were really really good! I just boiled them in water (we didn't have any beer) and grilled them on a stove top griddle. I made the sauce using some dijon mustard and honey. We also didn't have swiss so I used Vermont sharp cheddar. So I... — The Portugarians May 6, 2009

Chicken Garlic Bites

Posted by Mirj  

My husband said he'd give these 7 stars if he could! The chicken was so tender and juicy. I have 2 fairly picky toddlers who gobbled these up and asked for more; it's definitely a crowd pleasing recipe. I used 3 chicken breasts and the marinade... — The Portugarians May 5, 2009

Jeni's Chocolate Ganache

Posted by Amanda Beth  

Very easy to make and delicious. I used it on a bundt cake version of Best Ever Banana Cake #67256. I didn't let it cool but poured it directly on the cake from the pan. It made a nice shiny coating, and the flavor was perfect for the banana cake.... — The Portugarians Apr 19, 2009

Best Ever Banana Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting

Posted by Rhonda *J*  

This is as good as the reviewers all say. I made it in a bundt pan and it took about 1 hr 20 minutes at 275. It unmolded beautifully after resting for 15 minutes in the pan. I didn't use the freezer step. I wanted chocolate on it so I used Jeni's... — The Portugarians Apr 19, 2009

Salsa Sour Cream Chicken

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by dgpat  

We made this with #352762 - Custard Corn Bread, which was a wonderful combination. This recipe was delicious. We used a whole jar of salsa and substituted chili seasoning since we didn't have taco seasoning. The chicken breasts we had were frozen,... — The Portugarians Apr 14, 2009

Custard Corn Bread

Yum! This was delightfully moist and delicious. I didn't have buttermilk so I used 1T vinegar in regular milk. We like all sorts of corn bread, and this is going in the cook book to make again! We ate it with #88419 Salsa Sour Cream Chicken.... — The Portugarians Apr 14, 2009

Basic Meatballs

Posted by - Carla -  

These were great! I was out of milk - hard to believe that happened in a house with two toddlers - so I used buttermilk instead. Next time I'll use milk and see which I like better. They were flavorful and tender, not too onion-y tasting and not... — The Portugarians Apr 6, 2009

Pork Chops and Cabbage (Asian Style)

Posted by {-;=3 Chef Phil {-;=3  

I tried this because I had 1/2 head of cabbage left over from St. Patrick's Day. This dish didn't have much flavor and we found the pork pretty tough after simmering it in broth for a while. It just wasn't for us. — The Portugarians Apr 2, 2009

Pronto Pups aka Corn Dogs

Posted by Fair weather cook  

I'm not a huge fan of corn dogs, but my husband is, so we decided to try these out. My husband couldn't stop raving about how good they were, and my 2 toddlers each ate two of them! They won't even eat the ones at the fair in the summer, so these... — The Portugarians Feb 24, 2009
