Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and thyme and more olive oil if needed and saute until lightly browned and tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the onion and season with salt and pepper. Let cook until the onions are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in the flour and mustard and cook for about 2 minutes. Whisk in the beef stock and bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the grilled chicken breasts, then cover the skillet and turn down the heat to medium-low. Let simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Prepare the rice according to the package directions. Remove the rice to a large bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons parsley. Place rice on a platter, then top with the chicken and mushroom sauce. Garnish with the remaining fresh parsley.

3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if needed
Two 8-ounce containers sliced white button mushrooms
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 medium sweet or white onion, large diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 cups beef stock, warmed
4 grilled chicken breasts, from the freezer or refrigerator section of the grocery, thawed if frozen

Sunny's Quick Beef and Pineapple Skewers image

Steps:

  • Add the honey, orange juice, olive oil, salt, red curry seasoning and black pepper to a medium bowl. Whisk until the honey and oil are dispersed. Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade, then divide the remaining marinade in half between two resealable plastic bags. Add the beef chunks to one bag and the pineapple to the other bag. Seal both bags and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water while the beef and pineapple are marinating.
  • Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove or strain the beef and pineapple chunks from the bags and discard the marinade. Pat everything dry. Build the skewers by alternating between the beef and pineapple, placing 3 to 4 pieces of each on each skewer. Place them over the direct heat of the grill and cook on each side for 1 to 2 minutes. Brush the skewers with the reserved marinade. Remove from the grill and serve with yellow rice, if using.

1/2 cup hot (spicy) honey
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon red curry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin, cut into 1-inch chunks
4 pineapple rings (canned or fresh), cut into 1-inch chunks
Yellow rice, for serving, optional

Sunny's Classic BBQ Chicken image

Steps:

  • For the brine and chicken: In a medium pot on high heat, add the tea, 1/4 cup salt and 1 cup water. Cook, stirring, until the salt dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • Pour the cooled brine into a large resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken thighs and breasts and refrigerate overnight.
  • About 2 hours before grilling, remove the chicken from the bag and pat dry. Let rest on a plate in the refrigerator for 1 1/2 hours, then at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • For the sauce. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then add the ketchup, beer, brown sugar, paprika, chile flakes, garlic powder and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and the sugar is completely dissolved, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • Preheat a grill to high heat.
  • Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken pieces. Over the direct heat, put the chicken on the grill on what would be the skin side. Grill until the chicken easily releases and there are grill marks, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip and move the chicken to the indirect heat area of the grill and brush with the sauce. Cover and grill until cooked through, brushing with the sauce again once or twice, another 6 to 8 minutes.

1 cup sweet tea
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 to 2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 cup chopped Vidalia onions
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup beer
1/4 cup tightly packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated on a rasp

Sunny's Easy Butter Chicken image

Steps:

  • For the marinade: In a bowl, add the yogurt, chili powder, cumin, turmeric, garam masala, paprika, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Stir until everything is one color. Scoop into a large resealable bag and add the chicken. Leave on the counter at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • To cook the chicken: In a large pan with straight sides on medium-high heat, add the butter and then the chicken chunks from the bag, discarding the marinade. Cook, turning, until some parts are browned but most are still white, about 8 minutes.
  • For the sauce. Add the crushed tomatoes, sugar, ginger and garlic to the pan. Things should be bubbly and hot. Stir to marry everything and when the pan smells like garlic and ginger, add the heavy cream and stir again until everything is the same color. Partially cover and simmer on low for 20 minutes.
  • For serving: Stir in the cilantro and serve over rice with another sprinkle of cilantro.

1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon turmeric
1 tablespoon garam masala
1 tablespoon hot Hungarian paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken tenders, cut into 1-inch sections
4 tablespoons salted butter
1 cup crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon sugar
2 frozen ginger pods (or 2 inches ginger, grated)
2 frozen garlic pods (or 2 cloves garlic, grated)
3/4 to 1 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more to garnish
2 cups cooked basmati rice

Sunny's Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup image

Steps:

  • For the tortilla strips: Heat the oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the tortilla strips and cook, stirring, until they are crispy, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle lightly with salt. Set aside.
  • For the soup: In the same pot, add the cumin, paprika, jalapeños, onion and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the veggies are soft and tender, about 8 minutes. Add the stock and diced tomatoes and green chiles. Bring to a simmer. Add the chicken and simmer until the chicken is warmed through.
  • For serving: Serve in bowls with a pile of the fried tortilla strips and some yogurt and hot sauce, if desired, on the side.

1/4 cup canola oil
4 corn tortillas, very thinly sliced
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon hot Hungarian paprika
2 jalapeños, finely chopped, seeds included
1 sweet onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 cups chicken stock
One 10-ounce can diced tomatoes and green chiles (I like Ro-tel)
Shredded meat from 1/2 roasted chicken

  • In a large saute pan with straight sides over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the red and green bell pepper, onion and then season with salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Saute until the vegetables are tender then add the garlic, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, and sazon seasoning. Cook for a minute or so then add the ground chicken and cook, breaking up the chicken with a wooden spoon while stirring. Make sure to really break up the ground chicken on this step so there are no large clumps.
  • Once the chicken is cooked through, sprinkle the flour over the top and stir while cooking to allow the flour to blend into the chicken for a few minutes. Add the chicken stock then raise the heat to a simmer and cook until the stock thickens a bit, about 4 to 5 minutes. Serve in warm taco shells topped with shredded lettuce and a dollop of Creamy Salsa.
  • Combine the tomatoes, cilantro, red onion, jalapeno, scallion, sour cream hot sauce, garlic powder, and lime juice in a medium bowl. Stir to combine, then season with salt and pepper to taste, and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
