Tuesday: Vietnamese Grilled Chicken Noodles
To make this recipe full of lovely Asian flavours, start with the Vietnamese nuoc cham sauce. Use this fragrant lemongrass mixture to marinate chicken thighs for at least 2 hours (the time for a dip in the pool or some other summer activity). Serve the grilled poultry with rice vermicelli, salad and a garnish of peanuts and green onions. Sitting down at the table to eat is like an invitation to travel to a faraway land.
Wednesday: Cajun Spice Salmon and Vegetables
This is one spicy week! Rub the salmon in Cajun spices, then grill it and serve the fish with blackened lemon halves and a duo of seasonal veggies: green beans and sliced ears of corn. A super sunny dish that’ll brighten up your terrace.
Thursday: Harissa Grilled Lamb with Grilled Vegetable Salad
Leg of lamb steaks, an often neglected cut, are perfect for the grill. They’re the stars of this Mediterranean-inspired dish. Save time by coating these tender pieces of meat in a speedy harissa marinade, an ingredient that’s also incorporated into the dressing for the salad. You’ll want the lamb to be cooked to medium rare doneness. Delicious with grilled vegetables and arugula.
Friday: Spicy Korean-Style Burgers with Kimchi, Quick Pickled Vegetables and Fried Eggs
Feel like having burgers to top off the week? The unanimous answer is a resounding “Yes!” The Korean-inspired toppings for this recipe, including cucumbers, onions marinated in rice vinegar and a fried egg with a runny yolk, will whet your appetite. Spice things up with store-bought kimchi, a touch of gochugaru, a Korean chili, and spicy mayo for even more heat.
