Fried chicken sandwiches are super hot right now. Dressed in a smoky poblano cream sauce that delivers all that crunchy goodness with just the right amount of heat. Pickled red onions seal the deal. We’re headed south of the border for this Fried Chicken Sandwich. Crunchy fried chicken cutlets get smothered in a smoky poblano cream sauce and topped with pickled red onions that bring a zesty brightness to your bite. Poblano peppers are really pretty mild considering that wide range of peppers out there. We roast them bringing out the smoky flavor and remove the seeds leaving the right amount of heat. Paired with creamy mayonnaise and you have…

Ahhh, the sexy Poblano Burger. The perfect addition to your Memorial Day BBQ. Inspired by flavors of the Southwest, this burger is topped in a luscious green chile queso layered with thick cut smokey bacon, fire roasted poblano peppers and pickled red onions. This right here, has to be one of my all time favorite burger combinations. The green chile queso is seriously addicting to the point that I find myself dipping chip after endless chip into it as I wait for the burgers to be ready. The combination of the mild poblano pepper with the creamy queso and smokey bacon paired with bright, acidic pickled red onions sends flavor…

Crispy Mexican pizzas blend two of my favorite foods together and it’s a great way to us leftover pulled pork. Crispy tortilla, bean smear, creamy Jack cheese and, of course, all the fun toppings. Pickled onions brighten everything, cilantro adds the freshness and cotija cheese for a little saltiness. These little cuties are ready in no time at all!

We made this thing we liked to call Mexican Pizza. Although a little…

It’s #nationalgrilledcheeseday, like everyone’s fave day, right? I mean who doesnt LOVE everything cheesy? I took my favorite bacon wrapped jalapeno popper and basically smashed it between two perfectly toasted sourdough slices because one, Seattle is known for it’s super awesome sourdough and two, why not smash something totally awesome together? This recipe started when we had leftover bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers that I stuffed with chipotle cream cheese, yes, we like it spicy round here. My kids wanted a grilled cheese and one thing led to another. The chipotle just adds that little bit of smokiness that pairs perfectly with the smoky bacon and cool creamy cream cheese. AND…

The first day of Spring deserves something colorful and packed with fresh vegetables like this Asian Fusion Fish Sandwich. Spicy mayo gives this crunchy beer battered fish sandwich a bit of a kick and King’s Hawaiian rolls bring the sweetness to round out the perfect bite. This beer battered cod uses Corona for an extra light and crisp coating. I find that letting the batter sit for 10 to 15 minutes before dipping the cod makes a huge difference in the final product. Another great tip is to season, season, season. Layers of light seasoning really build flavor and ALWAYS season your fish right out of the fryer. It’s a…
