Pulled Pork Wontons!

Hello my fellow chefs!!! :) I decided I was going to try a recipe that was SO OUT OF MY LEAGUE!! And it actually turned out soooo yummy!!! This is a crock pot recipe so it's easy cooking!!! :)

Anticipate 30 min of prep time before cooking

Ingredients:
1 pkg of Wonton Wrappers
1 bone in, pork shoulder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 cloves of chopped garlic
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1 cup orange marmalade
1 medium onion chopped

Dipping Sauce:
Sriracha Hot Sauce
Hoisin Sauce
Combine the two and you are set!!

Directions:
In a medium mixing bowl, mix together orange marmalade, soy sauce, garlic, salt and pepper and set aside. Once that it complete, chop your medium onion and place at the bottom of the crock pot! (I used a red onion for the pigment and I love the way they cook!!) Place the roast on top of the layer of onions and add the sauce. Set the crock pot on low heat and let cook for 8-10 hours!! :)



Once your roast is all done and delicious, pull apart he meat with two forks. Once you have all the meat in a bowl, add more coy sauce and a dash of salt and pepper! Next, grab 4 wonton wrappers and add a teaspoon of meat in the middle of the wrapper. (If you over stuff these little guys, they will come apart in the fryer!) Take a basting brush (or your fingers work too!) and brush water on the edges of the wrapper. (Do this process one by one so the water doesn't dry) Fold the corners over so it makes a triangle, this way you can get the most meat possible in the wrapper!

Fry the wonton on each side for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown! I used coconut oil to fry the wontons with :) A little bit healthier!!

The ending product should look like this!!!!


This recipe was a gamble!!! I was expecting it to be DISGUSTING and then we would have to get pizza! BUT IT WAS YUMMY!!!

Take that chance and make a dish that scares you a little!!! I promise you WILL NOT regret it :) You can only get better with every dish you make :)

I hope you all love this recipe!! It was a TON of fun to make!!

Much Love and Happy Cooking!!!! :)

Crispy Asian Chicken Salad

Here is a brand new recipe that I absolutely LOVED!!! Every ingredient i used was organic, but of course you can use any ingredients you like :) 

Ingredients:
Anticipate 1 hr and 30 min for preperation and cooking

2 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
2 Cloves of Garlic (finely diced) 
2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 Teaspoon Fish Sauce
1/2 Teaspoon Sriracha Sauce
2 Tablespoons seasoned Brown Rice Vinegar
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Ginger
1 cup Bread Crumbs
1 cup Flour
Pinch of Black Pepper


Directions:

Cut the chicken into 2 inch strips. Then combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl (besides the bread crums and flour of course!!). Once you add the chicken, cover and let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour! That way, all the ingredients can marinate the chicken and make it super yummy!!!

Once the chicken has marinated, take out a large sauté pan and coat the pan with either, olive oil, or coconut oil. (I personally love the way the chicken tastes after frying in coconut oil!!) 

Be sure not to flip the chicken too much, or the breading will fall off of the chicken. 

Once the chicken is done, get out your salad and place the chicken on top!! :) 


AND YOUR MEAL IS DONE!!!! :) 
I really hope everyone enjoys this recipe!! :) I would love feedback as well so feel free to comment on any recipe :) 

Much love and HAPPY COOKING!!!
