I don’t know if I can think of a better beat the heat, quickie dinner for a hot, muggy summer day than these Asian Turkey (or Chicken) Lettuce Wraps.

Bulgogi Korean Beef
Is it just me, or is Korean food trending now? Maybe it’s me because when I crave a little something, I see it everywhere! It could be the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, but I blame Chef David Chang and his wildly popular Korean American restaurant, Momofuku. He’s everywhere: TV, books, magazines! Regardless, I’m hoping to add to that trend with this fabulous Bulgogi Korean Beef.

Momofukus Bo Ssam
What happens when a lentil/yogurt/kale and green smoothie person stays on to help out her solidly Midwestern parents? Things like this, I’m afraid! This is one gorgeous pork roast from Chef David Chang of Momofuku. Momofukus Bo Ssam is crazy good. Served with rice, two simple sauces, and lettuce for wrapping, along with a few, simple accompaniments, this is absolutely one insane dinner.

Opal Thai’s Pork Larb
Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I love that show but haven’t seen it since I chopped my cable. Featured on one episode was Opal Thai’s Pork Larb made by Chef Opel (Opal Thai Food) on the episode All Family, All the Time. I was completely enamored – and Guy Fieri? There’s very little that shuts him up (I’m kinda the same way) but this dish did! 🙂 He was just about speechless.
