SIMPLE COOKING WITH STREET-SMART TIPS & EASY RECIPES Mostly sous vide & low-carb.

Hey Reader,

I'm writing this with a suitcase open on my bedroom floor — Marcus and I leave for Taiwan next week, and if you've ever packed for a kid and yourself at the same time, you know exactly the kind of low-grade chaos I'm living in right now.

Which is exactly why this week's recipe exists.

I needed something that didn't ask much of me — no oven (still don't have one, still don't miss it), no long grocery run, nothing that required patience I don't currently have. What I landed on is a Zesty Chicken Larb Salad: golden ground chicken, lemongrass, loads of fresh herbs, and a lime-fish sauce dressing that wakes the whole thing up. One skillet, and somehow it still feels like a treat instead of a chore.

Twenty-five minutes start to finish, and it's become my "we leave in three days, and I don't want the fridge full" dinner. I have a feeling it might become yours too.

Also, I've got a few BBQ skewer recipes brewing — think grilled to a char, a little smoky, the kind of thing that tastes like summer on my rooftop. More on that soon. Get the grill ready!

Wishing you a light, easy summer dinner tonight.

Cheers,

P.S. As always, if you make this chicken larb salad recipe, I'd love to hear from you. Leave a rating and review on the blog or simply hit reply; I read every response.
