light and fulfilling salad as a meal or as a side for grilled fish or chicken

a very versatile vinaigrette to keep in the refrigerator at all times

IMHO, this rivals any take-out thai fried rice. It takes some planning and shopping to have all the necessary ingredients that go into giving this a rich and complex flavor but so worth it.

once you make these at home you will not be able to go back to buying store-bought

tender, lemony and juicy chicken that is easy to put together and make ahead for a weeknight meal or a fab dinner party
