Abalone Sauce Sockeye Salmon (鮑魚醬紅鱒鮭魚, Baau1 Jyu4 Zoeng3 Hung4 Zyun6 Gwai1 Jyu4)

Here’s another tasty recipe using fresh sockeye salmon and Lee Kum Kee’s brand abalone sauce. The last recipe fresh sockeye salmon recipe, Black Pepper Sauce Sockeye Salmon (黑椒汁紅鱒鮭魚, Hak¹ Ziu¹ Zap¹ Hung⁴ Zyun⁶ Gwai¹ Jyu⁴), used black pepper sauce. The texture to this dish is provided by using bean curd sticks, which when rehydrated, are slightly chewy. Once again, the salmon skin is not removed and becomes crispy when the skin is placed directly onto a hot wok.

Black Pepper Sauce Sockeye Salmon (黑椒汁紅鱒鮭魚, Hak1 Ziu1 Zap1 Hung4 Zyun6 Gwai1 Jyu4)

Fresh sockeye salmon was available, so I paired it with Lee Kum Kee’s brand Black Pepper Sauce, rather than the more common black bean garlic sauce. The dish is just as tasty using black pepper sauce and is especially tasty when the salmon is fresh and not frozen. The salmon skin is not removed and becomes crispy when the skin is placed directly onto a hot wok. I used green and yellow bell peppers, but you can use any colored bell peppers to make this dish.

Black Bean Chili Oil Chinese Broccoli Chicken with Fried Tofu (黑豆辣椒油芥蘭油炸豆腐鷄, Hak1 Dau6 Laat6 Ziu1 Jau4 Gaai3 Laan4 Jau4 Zaa3 Dau6 Fu6 Gai1)

I’ve been using Laoganma’s brand of black bean chili sauce in many of my recipes. I went back and looked at the English translation for the ingredient and realized a more accurate translation would be black bean chili oil. So starting with this recipe, I’m using the more accurate translation in the recipe title when using the ingredient.

This is an easy to make chicken and Chinese broccoli dish, which is always a great taste combination. Red bell pepper strips are added for color and all you have to do is buy a package of fried tofu to complete the dish. Black bean garlic sauce can be substituted (Lee Kum Kee is the brand I recommend) if you don’t want to make the dish (mildly) spicy.

Basil Chicken and Shrimp Green Curry (咖哩紫蘇蝦鷄, Gaa3 Lei1 Zi2 Sou1 Haa1 Gai1)

The tasty seafood-meat combination common in Chinese dishes also works well in a curry, in this case a green curry. Using a prepared curry paste makes this dish quick cooking and easy to prepare. While this recipe uses shrimp and chicken are marinated beforehand, this step can easily be omitted if time is short and the dish will still be tasty. The spiciness of the dish comes from the red chili peppers and can the quantity can be adjusted to personal taste, or omitted altogether. I like my potatoes a little crunchy, so I add them at the end, but if you like them a little softer, add them in with the chicken at the beginning of cooking.

Enjoy!
