Sesame-Soy Shishito Chili Peppers

For cocktail hour, serve tiny grilled shishito chilis coated with a mixture of soy sauce, lemon juice, honey and garlic. Dip them in a spicy mayo and nibble on them while entertaining your guests. Way more addictive than chips!

Red Curry Salmon with Peanuts

Store-bought red curry paste is a great helper. This recipe features it in two ways: first, in the marinade for the salmon, and second, in the sauce mixed with mayonnaise, lemon and peanuts. Served with oven-roasted red bell peppers and pickled cucumbers, this fish dish will bring colour to your weeknight dinners.
