When you’re looking to liven up leftover cooked chicken, a sweet and tangy honey-mustard sauce goes a long way! Add a freshly steamed pot of rice and some sautéed vegetables, and you’ve got a quick weeknight meal that’s full of bright flavors and textures.
I cook often. Most nights I cook from a stash of my tried-and-true, favorite recipes, but I also make an effort to cook with new-to-me ingredients. I love experimenting with different types of produce, spices, and unique finds from ethnic markets.
Want to try cooking with new ingredients in your kitchen? See how I do it. Here are five simple habits that help me cook with new ingredients on a regular basis.

“A different kind of hummus, featuring fresh basil and tomatoes – smooth, flavorful, and delicious.”
I’ve been getting a lot of requests for fish recipes recently, and so today I thought I would revisit this extra-simple, extra-fast dinner that delivers huge flavor in a foolproof package.
Fish cooks so fast — this dish is so convenient for those last-minute meals. It was one of my first “grown-up” recipes, a quick meal for busy evenings after work. I would turn to this frequently when living alone or with roommates. It never failed to please, with the fresh, aromatic flavors of cilantro, ginger, and sesame.
