Dinner by the Dozen: Twelve meals in two hours.

June... Summer is almost here. Let's start the fun!

Please choose 6 or 12 items from the choices below. Be adventurous and choose 6 or 12 different things, or select several of the same dish if it really appeals to you. For logistics reasons, you can choose the same item up to two times.

Bombay Tandoori Steak ~ $5 supplemental charge
In this dish, a marinade made with yogurt and cream, Indian spices and a touch of garlic, ginger and chilis, tenderizes and infuses tri-tip steaks. Perfect for the grill. Easy to adjust the spicy heat to make it more family friendly.
(low carb - easy to split - easy at home - moderately kid friendly)

Chicken Scallopini with Fresh Garden Herbs
When you taste the fresh parsley and tarragon on these tender chicken breasts you won't believe this came from your freezer. A Dinner by the Dozen favorite. Since we cut the breasts in half horizontally they cook in a flash - sauté or grill.

Honey-Chili Drumsticks
Smokey in a slightly sweet and tangy way, these chicken legs are truly outstanding. So much, that the original version of the recipe appeared in Gourmet magazine. Family friendly dish (not too spicy). Bake or grill.

Java BBQ Pork Loin
This wonderful recipe calls for a marinade, a dry rub with just a touch of coffee and a flavored BBQ sauce. The result is a delicious dish that tastes like it took forever to make, but in reality, it's fast and easy to grill.

Grilled Salmon with Charmoula ~ $5 supplemental charge
An amazing Moroccan-inspired wet rub turns the salmon almost red while infusing it with the flavors of cilantro, cumin, garlic and paprika. We served this at a party and everybody loved it! In fact, it's one of my favorite rubs for salmon. Perfect for the grill.

A perfect dish to show off with family and friends. Tastes amazing, yet it's very easy to prepare at home!

Simmers on the stovetop and it's worth the splatters!
(low carb w/o sauce - difficult to split - a bit harder at home - kid friendly)

Corn & Cheese Empanadas
These vegetarian empanadas (turnovers) are typical of the northern part of Argentina where they are called "empanadas de humita". They make a great meal, and the leftovers reheat well for lunch at the office/school the next day. Since the dough is imported and difficult to find, we are offering this dish on a first come-first served basis. We regret the inconvenience but sign up for them early so you can get them! Cooks in the oven.

Lots of our customers are always asking us when will we have the pot pie in the menu again. So to make it easier and keep everybody happy, we are offering it pre-assembled and ready to go. After the arrival of each of my kids, my neighbor, and friend, Traci delivered a chicken pot pie to our doors. It was so good it almost made up for the sleepless nights. This recipe is based on hers. Flaky pastry tops kid-friendly veggies and chicken in a creamy sauce. Cooks on the stovetop and oven. To make it healthier, we have omitted the bottom crust, but you won't miss it.

Usually humitas are cooked like tamales, enrobed in corn husks. In this version, we took the hard work and simplified the dish to cook it in a casserole dish instead.
