Eros Sushi Wrap Recipes

SALMON SUSHI WRAP

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, season salmon with a mixture of lemon juice, ginger, soy sauce and sugar. Combine salmon mixture with rice, water chestnuts, green onion and sesame seeds; toss gently with fork to mix.
• Warm the tortillas.** Arrange a layer of spinach leaves on the bottom half of each tortilla, leaving room on the edges. Spread equal portions of the salmon-rice mixture over spinach then top with another layer of spinach leaves. Fold the side and bottom edges of each tortilla toward the middle over the filling, then roll so the tortilla covers the filling.
• * Tips: For a typical sushi flavor, use nori strips in place of spinach. Nori are sheets of dried seaweed, found in many Asian stores. Serve with wasabi, if desired.
• ** To make them more pliable before wrapping, warm tortillas:.
• • Microwave oven: 10 to 15 seconds on high heat.
• • Oven: 3 to 5 minutes at 350ºF in aluminum foil.
• • Stovetop: 15 seconds per side over medium-high heat in a large non-stick skillet.
• Servings: 4.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat; cook and stir chicken pieces until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and place on a plate. Cook and stir onion, green bell pepper, minced garlic, and whole garlic cloves in the same Dutch oven until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
• Return chicken to the onion mixture. Add tomatoes, rice, salt, oregano, black pepper, and bay leaf. Pour in enough chicken stock to cover all the ingredients.
• Bake chicken-rice mixture in the preheated oven until rice is tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Stir peas, olives, raisins, and pimento peppers into the chicken-rice mixture. Bake until warmed through, an additional 15 minutes.

SAUTéED SHISHITO PEPPERS: SUMMER'S BEST NEW BITE

Steps:

• Here's what you do. Heat a little olive oil in a wide sauté pan until it is good and hot but not smoking. Add the peppers and cook them over medium, tossing and turning them frequently until they blister. They shouldn't char except in places. Don't rush. It takes 10 to 15 minutes to cook a panful of peppers. When they're done, toss them with sea salt and add a squeeze of fresh lemon. Slide the peppers into a bowl and serve them hot. You pick them up by the stem end and eat the whole thing, minus the stem, that is.
• You can probably do fancier, cheffy things with them, but they're terrific like this. For variety, I sometimes use a little toasted sesame oil instead of olive oil and finish them with togarashi. If you have leftovers, an unlikely event in my experience, chop off the stems and put the peppers in an omelet or some scrambled eggs.
