Rosemary, Italian Parsley, Thyme Marinated Chicken

As Asian, we seldom use western herbs as cooking ingredient. But I find it wonderful to explore western herbs, as the taste always give surprise.

Over the weekend, I broiled chicken drumsticks with Rosemary, Thyme and Italian Parsley. 
I wish to have stronger herbs taste, hence day before I marinated the chicken drumsticks with below:

1 pack Italian Parsley
1 pack Thyme
5 Rosemary leafs
1/2 lemon juice
3 tbsp olive oils
1 tbsp melted salted butter 

Let it overnight in refrigerator. 

And the next day:

1. Let the chicken drumsticks back to room temperature.
2. Preheat the oven, 180C. 
3. After that broil the chicken drumsticks @ 200C for 15 minutes. Or longer if you prefer more brownish finishing.
4. Flips the chicken drumsticks after 8 minutes. So that both sides broiled evenly.   
5. Done! 


Hope you enjoy this recipe!

Chinese Style Steam Salmon


I always love salmon, regardless of sashimi or cooked salmon. Therefore salmon also one of my favorite home cook menu. As always I used to fried the salmon on pan oil free. But this time I try something new - steam style! 

Oh yes, steam! If you like to keep the salmon taste at its best. 

Very simple...just 1, 2, 3 and 4 steps! 

1. Marinate the salmon with little black pepper and salt for an hour.
2. Prepare Cilantrol (Chinese Parsley), ginger slices and onion slices on plate.  
3. Put marinated salmon on top. 
4. And steam for 10 to 15 minutes. Done! 



Enjoy home cook!
