"I love Thai food, and in particular red curry beef, which is basically chunks of beef stew meat cooked slowly in a spicy, aromatic red curry sauce," says Chef John. "Inspired by this classic recipe, I decided to see if the same sort of flavors could be turned into a marinade for flank steak. The results knocked my socks off."

Cardamom Chicken with Salt and Pepper Crust

Marinate chicken thighs in garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey and cardamom -- and then season liberally with salt and pepper and roast in the oven. "The marinade is intense with flavor, but it's the final seasoning of simple salt and pepper that really makes it delicious," says DARLA. "Gotta use Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper here."

Deb's General Tso's Chicken

"A traditional Chinese favorite, you'll enjoy the spicy sweet soy sauce with ginger and garlic flavors, ingredients that make this dish so addictive," says Deb K. "This is a true General's chicken recipe which requires frying the chicken twice to give it that extra crispiness. The cornstarch batter gives the chicken a light coating. You can save time considerably by making and refrigerating the sauce and chicken up to 3 days. Serve with rice or noodles tossed with lightly steamed fresh vegetables, such as broccoli, zucchini, squash, and green onions."
