The New Trend in Fusion Cuisine

For many years, fast food chains have made burgers, fries and shakes as menu staples of these establishments everywhere in the world and people across regions have learned to like these types of food however different they may be to their native dishes. But now, gone were the days where restaurants just stick to what they usually serve as more and more people are looking for variety as well as that new yet familiar taste that they have grown accustomed to with their local food. So, in the Asian region, alone, restaurants like Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC), which originally serves American cuisine, have revamped its menu by introducing new dishes that would hopefully capture the target local customers. KFC decided to expand its menu that combined Western Cuisine with Eastern influences in order to not just provide more food choices but also adapt to the local palate. Thus, this quirky and innovative restaurant has strengthened the establishment of a new trend in fusion cuisine, which is ...

How to Bake a Chicken Breast

First things first when getting ready to bake a chicken breast - you need to prep the oven (I like to set it to 375 degrees Fahrenheit) and prepare your seasonings. The number of ways you can season your chicken breast is endless - you can put a little olive oil, salt & pepper; some lemon and a touch of butter; or even some spicy Cajun seasoning. These are really just a few of the ways in which you can season your chicken. Now, you need to put the chicken in an oven safe dish. I like to put a light coat of olive oil in the bottom of the dish so the chicken breast doesn't stick too bad when it's done. Now put your chicken in the oven and finish setting the table and making the salad! The important thing to remember with chicken is that it must be cooked thoroughly for the safety of those eating it. The chicken can potentially be carrying Salmonella bacteria, which can make you very, very sick and can even kill you. By ensuring that the core temperature of the chicken breast ...

Chicken Steak Recipe

Eating steak has always been a symbol of prosperity. During the turn of the century, steak houses were patronized by the elite. The cattle and the oil barons ate their thick cuts of sirloins smothered with oysters or stuffed with them making it too expensive of a place for the common folk. This is one source for my inspiration. How many times have you been into a restaurant, and had a dish that was just so good, you had to try making it for yourself at home? I know I have. At least one of my better recipes was inspired by a dinner I had on my first anniversary at a local Italian restaurant. It is very rare for chicken fried steak to be made from a top quality cut of beef. After all, the steak is not being expected to stand entirely on its own, so it is not vital that it be perfect. Additionally, the frying of the steak has a tenderizing effect on the meat, which also permits a slightly lower quality cut of meat to be used. Obviously, there is a limit, but chicken fried steak is more fo...

Count your Chicken after They Hatch: Lesson Learned from My First 50 Mile Ultra Marathon by Article Manager

My first triathlon coach gave me some very wise advice regarding preparing for a race. He told me that the things that we most worry about affecting us on race day NEVER happen. Instead, it's always something that we don't expect. So far, after 12 Ironman races, about a dozen marathons, four 24 hour world record attempts and my first 80 km ultra marathon, this advice has proven to be very true. I was quite nervous going into this 50 mile (80 km) ultra marathon because it was my first shot at running farther than the standard 26.2 mile marathon distance. My right knee had been swollen and sore for about 3 weeks leading up to race day. Most of my training has been on steep hills and the constant downhill pounding really affected my right knee. Thankfully, and true to my coache's advice, my knee injury never really bothered me during the race and instead I was inflicted by something else that I never expected- I got stupid and assumed my success, counting my chickens before th...
