I made this the other night with steamed broccoli and carrots, and roasted potatoes. This would be really good with rice instead, as it is very much a chinese flavored recipe. I used a low sodim soy sauce, and I made it on chicken breasts. After reading the reviews on this receipe before I made it; I lined the baking dish in foil to prevent stuck on juices.

Don't let the name fool you... This is not spicy... I don't even really know why it's in the name! But it was a good recipe! I put it on the gril and later had it in a salad. This makes 6 servings. This is another recipe that I have not yet figured out the calorie intake just yet as well.

Ingredients:
    6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    1/2c orange juice
    1/4c honey
    1-oz pkg Italian salad dressing mix

Directions:
    Place chicken in a glass dish; set aside. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over chicken. Marinate for one 
    hour, turning to coat both sides; discard marinade. Grill or broil chicken until juices run clear when pierced with 
    a fork.
 
Another very easy and good recipe!! This recipe makes about 4 servings. I have not done the calculations yet as to what the calorie intake is, but I may do that the next time I make it.

Ingredients:
    8-oz pkg. pasta, cooked
    1clove garlic; minced
    1/4c olive oil
    3/4c grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
    Keep pasta warm in a large serving bowl. Saute garlic in oil until golden and tender; pour over pasta. Add 
    cheese; toss gentls to coat. Serve immediately.
 
Very easy sidedish! Would be great if you need to take something simple and easy to a potluck deal.

Ingredients:
    8-10 redkins potatoes, cooked, and cubed
    2-3 green onions, chopped
    1-2c ranch dressing
    salt and pepper

Directions:
    Combine potatoes and onions in a large bowl. Stir in ranch dressing; season with salt and pepper. Serve chilled!
 
Another old recipe! This is an excellent recipe! It is suppose to be on tenderloin, but I've always done it on steaks instead. My dad recently cooked it on venison and it was pretty good there too (although it wasn't in the marinade nearly as long as it was suppose to be). You do need to do some planning before hand if this is what you want to cook for dinner. The marinade time is 8-12 hours.

Ingredients:
    Your choice of meat!
    1c bourbon
    2/3c soy sauce
    1 bunch cilantro, chopped
    1/2c lemon juice
    1tbsp worcestershire sauce
    2c water
    3-4 sprigs fresh chopped thyme
    1c brown sugar

Preparation:
    1. Prepare marinade by combining borudon, brown sugar, soy sauce, cilantro, lemon juice, worcestershire, 
        water, and thyme. Pour marinade over meat, cover, and refrigerate 8-12 hours. Turn meat over several 
        times. 

    2. The original recipe mentions occasionally basting the meat. We leave a little bit of the marinade on the side 
        for this instead of using the marinade that was soaking around the raw meat.
 
This is another recipe that I haven't made in a few years. It is suppose to have a gingered cocktail sauce that goes with it. I've made it, but I don't eat cocktail sauce soooooo.... I don't know if it's any good. I will put the cocktail sauce recipe with it (only because it is a very easy recipe!).
