Halibut With Chanterelle Cream Sauce

Halibut With Chanterelle Cream Sauce

Jul 8, 2011

Halibut and chanterelle mushrooms were and are an important part of Haida food culture. This flavourful recipe contains dried chanterelles because they're much easier to find than fresh. If you're fortunate enough to find them, substitute 1/2 cup fresh, chopped, for the dried; then replace mushroom soaking liquid with dry white wine and omit lemon juice.

Chicken Katsu

Chicken Katsu

Apr 4, 2009

Similar to a schnitzel or cutlet, this easy dish is delicious served either hot or cold in a sandwich. Or you can serve it with steamed rice and a salad for a complete meal. If you can't find mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine), you can substitute 1 tbsp (15 mL) each boiling water and granulated sugar.

West Coast Seafood Chowder with Lemon and Dill Dumplings

West Coast Seafood Chowder with Lemon and Dill Dumplings

May 12, 2009

The inspiration for this recipe was to have as much seafood as possible in one dish; my partner loves seafood and cannot get enough. I serve this dish in a large tureen in the middle of the table and let everyone serve themselves "family style". I serve with a great glass of cold white wine and everyone has a great time.

Orange Chili Crispy Beef Strips

Orange Chili Crispy Beef Strips

Feb 9, 2009

This dish is representative of highly flavoured meat dishes meant to accompany fiery Chinese alcoholic drinks or sherry-like Chinese rice wine. The trick to cooking it is to cook the beef until quite dry and crispy but not overcooked and burnt. It should be similar in texture to beef jerky, only more tender, so test the strips as you cook them.

Acadian Seafood Chowder

Acadian Seafood Chowder

May 12, 2009

Our Acadian ancestors prepared many of their dishes with fresh, salted or dried seafood. The dishes had to use what was available locally from the sea and land and be fairly easy to prepare. My inspiration for the Acadian Seafood Chowder comes from the culinary creative legacy of these early acadian ancestors. The chowder is served in large clear glass soup bowls accompanied by cheese/garlic butter toped grilled french baguette slices and a glass of canadian riesling wine.

Fresh Mint Jelly

Fresh Mint Jelly

Aug 9, 2012

Fresh mint and white wine vinegar create a sweet, tangy jelly that's much nicer than store-bought ones. Once you try it, you'll see it goes with more than just lamb. Try it on zippy cheese canapés, in vinaigrettes or tossed with fruit. You can use any mint for this jelly; spearmint is milder, while peppermint is stronger. Or try lemon mint, pineapple mint, even chocolate mint – or a blend. Just do a taste-test of a small batch of the infusion first.

The World's Best Steak Sandwich

The World's Best Steak Sandwich

May 12, 2009

The absolute beauty of this meal is that it is what everyone I know loves: rustic, satisfying, easy to make, un-pretentious but so incredibly delicious that every single person I've ever made it for has requested a 'repeat performance' just days later! I think it's the perfect thing to serve for a casual night of entertaining- serve it with some great red wine (may I suggest a lovely Cabernet Sauvingnon?) and some balsamic & honey dressed arugula. This menu is condusive to a chilled out night full of great conversation and laughter with people you love. I definitely created it for the people I love!

Peter Gzowski's Favourite Beef Stew

Peter Gzowski's Favourite Beef Stew

Jul 14, 2005

Back in 1992, Ottawa-based Trillium Cooking School owner Pam Collacott and Canadian Living food editor Elizabeth Baird assisted Peter Gzowski at the Ottawa International Wine & Food Show where, as master teacher, he prepared Peter's Favourite Stew. Previous to the cooking class, The Canadian Living Test Kitchen has taken his charming instructions (no measurements) and converted them into the tested recipe you see below. Later, at the behest of one of Peter's fans, we also tried the recipe with caribou and found it worked exactly the same as beef, and, what is so important, was received with acclaim by members of the test kitchen and our guests. Of course Peter poo pooed the idea of measuring and suggested times, but when you want to reproduce the taste that won his stew so many fans, you can't go wrong with a well tested recipe.

Grilled Rack of Lamb with Blueberry Shiraz Reduction Sauce

Grilled Rack of Lamb with Blueberry Shiraz Reduction Sauce

May 13, 2009

I am very excited about entering my recipe in the 2009 Canadian Living Cook of the Year Contest. I am an avid home-cook and love creating new and exciting home recipes to make for my family and friends. I am a firm believer in seasonal cooking, using the freshest ingredients available, and making use of local ingredients whenever possible. Consequently, I was delighted to see that this year's contest was to feature Canadian ingredients. I wanted to take things a step further and include some local Newfoundland ingredients. Newfoundland and Labrador has some wonderful producers for fresh, often organic, produce, seafood and meat products...and of course the island is well known for it's abundance of wild berries. Berry picking is a provincial past-time in late summer and early fall and many families, including my own, can be found on the hillsides or barrens, bent over and collecting gallons of sweet, juicy berries to be used fresh, or to be frozen for use during the long winter months. I knew as soon as I read about this year's contest that I wanted to feature these berries, along with our wonderful, locally-raised lamb and artfully crafted local wines, in my recipe. I hope you enjoy a taste of Newfoundland!

''Sure to Please'' Chicken Cacciatore

''Sure to Please'' Chicken Cacciatore

May 12, 2009

I like to prepare dishes for guests that allow me to enjoy their company. In order to do this, I select dishes that can be prepared before the guests arrive and are already cooking while we are enjoying their company. My "Sure to Please" Chicken Cacciatore is a prime example of this. Over time I have made several adjustments to enhance the flavour while at the same time using healthy alternatives (eg. skinless chicken thighs and breasts; I saute ingredients in extra virgin olive oil instead of butter). Because this dish has an Italian flare, so do all the other dishes that I serve before, during and after this meal. I serve an antipasta tray as an appetizer, and toasted garlic bread, a tossed green salad with an oil and vinaigrette dressing, whole wheat spaghetti, and the same wine that is in the cacciatore. For dessert I serve Tiramisu (also made ahead). As a result, most of my work is complete before company arrives. I have shared this recipe with women who say they do not cook and I have received rave reviews from all of them - their guests loved it so much that one man ate the leftovers for breakfast the next morning. I like to make this dish in the summer, when I can use fresh produce from my vegetable garden or from the local farmer's market. My inspiration for this recipe is that I love to cook and entertain. This recipe is full of flavour, easy to prepare and tastes like you were in the kitchen all day (what a bonus!).
