Healthy Chicken Beans
I was making this chicken dish because of wanting to eat healthy and light. I used 2 big pieces of chicken thigh with drumsticks to make into a big pot of chicken soup (as usual way of making a soup with celery, carrots and onions). However, the chicken has to be cooked just right or little al dante. Take out the chicken and let it cool down so that you can shred the meat out. No Skin for this healthy eating. Once shredded, saute some beans (I used turtle purple beans just like purple string beans) with carmelised onions and some ginger. Add some garlic salt to taste. Once near to done, add the shredded chicken meat into the pan and mix all together, saute again for a min or two. Thats it, healthy chicken beans for dinner. No starchy food. Garnish with cucumber and bell peppers, or any other vegetables you like. Lastly, drizzle some soy sauce on top and you can enjoy this meal in front of the TV.

Seared Rockfish Masala
This is a very good dinner, healthy and light. I got the Rockfish from Costco and actually it is a good white fish, the meat is flaky and moist when cooked. So here is how I made my Seared Rockfish Masala. Seasoned those fillet with masala, garlic salt and some ground black pepper. Use a non-stick pan to sear them about 3 min each side on medium to high heat (use vegetable oil). Then throw in some diced vege you like, such as bell peppers, asparagus, parsley and green onions and then cover the saucepan with a lid for a min or two. The reason is to have some moisture in it (the sauce). Lastly, take the lid away, stir the vege and add little garlic salt to taste. You will love this...
The green vegetable is Kale. I grow Kale every year in the garden. Take out the stem, cut the leaves in small stripes, cleaned and sauteed with vege oil, garlic salt and mushrooms. Add little water to cook this, so that the kale will get softer. Say about 3-5 min.

Rockfish Ontop of Congee
It was fun thinking of what goes with my Rockfish, that is the Congree or Porridge. Cantonese called it "Jook". You can make your own flavor jook or just plain easily. Mine was watercress, sausage, chicken stock, green onions and of cos, jasmine rice. Why Jasmine Rice? Well, it is very smooth in texture, cooked fast and more aroma than the others. So the Rockfish I got from Costco is fresh and I seasoned it with olive oil, garlic salt and masala spice. Seared the Rockfish until cooked, say 4-5 minutes each side depends on how thick is the fillet. The thicker the longer in the hot saucepan (medium to high heat). The texture of the rockfish is flakey and white fish taste. I garnished with chopped fresh parsley. You can use cilantro or green onions or any other herbs you prefer. Well, try it and you sure will enjoy your jook time.

Sliced Lemon Lettuce Salad
Lemon rind is usually a gourmet ingredient in daily food at many restaurants nowadays. But what about just eat all parts of the lemon except the seeds? Well, here I discovered it when I was having sushi tuna with lemon at a nice sushi place in town. In my head I was thinking of using the sliced lemon in many dishes. Here is one of them, in the salad. I know many people use just lemon juice and rind, you know that you have to do double job (getting the rind and juice). Now is perfect idea to use both of them in just one job ie SLICE them thin. Then mix them with whatever salad you want and it turns out really good.
Ingredients:-
1 head Romaine Lettuce
1 whole lemon (thin slice)
Handful Micro parsley and cilantro
Handful Salted Peanuts
2 Tablespoon Reduced Balsamic vinegar
Your preference amount Olive oil and Garlic salt
