Drunken Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Make sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Prepare noodles: In a large saute pan, heat the oil over high heat. When you see a wisp of white smoke, add the garlic and cook, stirring, until light brown.
• Add the eggs and serrano chiles and cook, stirring, until the eggs are lightly scrambled and barely set, about 1 minute.
• Add the shrimp and onion, folding constantly until the shrimp turn pink, about 1 minute.
• Add the noodles, basil, tomatoes and sauce and toss to combine for about 3 minutes. Don't be scared to scrape the bits off the bottom before they burn. Cook for 1 additional minute until the noodles are cooked and coated well. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients and serve immediately or chill up to several hours, until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, fish sauce, cornstarch and 1 teaspoon water, making sure there are no lumps. Stir in the hoisin, chili paste and sesame oil.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sauce mixture, bring to a simmer and simmer until thickened, about 1 minute. Reserve the sauce in a small bowl for later.
• Wipe out the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the peanut oil and when hot, add the chicken and cook until just browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add the onions, peppers and garlic and cook until just softened, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet, stir in the sauce, tomatoes and scallions and cook for 1 minute more.
• Place the cucumber noodles in a large bowl and toss with the hot chicken mixture from the skillet directly before serving. Sprinkle with torn basil and serve.

Steps:

• Place watermelon in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, combine lemon and lime juice.
• Add sugar and whisk until it is dissolved.
• Add vodka and Grand Marnier.
• Pour mixture over the watermelon.
• Sprinkle with freshly chopped mint.
• Put the salad in the refrigerator for 1 hour or less before serving.
