This spicy wonton soup recipe, developed with Michelle McGlinn, uses just five ingredients you likely have lying around already, especially if you frequently make Asian-inspired cuisines. Inspired by the spicy, silky wontons at Chinese dim sum restaurants, this soup is the perfect combination of fiery heat and meaty savoriness, complete with crunchy green scallions. A warming soup that is even better (and cheaper) than takeout, this wonton soup makes even the busiest weeknights feel like a breeze.
This steakhouse comes to us from Times Square. They also have a location in FiDi, so we're not sure why Brooklyn is in the name at all. Their Miami location is on the seventh floor of the Moxy Hotel (also not Brooklyn) and their "Asian-inspired" menu has dim sum, peking duck, and spicy kung pao chicken. You'll also find some straightforward steakhouse dishes, like a dry-aged ribeye and a seafood tower.
A lunch classic with endless opportunity for customization, chicken salad offers the perfect mixture of freshness, color, and a hearty dose of protein. It's a dish that comes in a diverse array of different formats, from creamy sandwich fillers and vibrant, Asian-inspired creations to satisfying pasta salads. Grilled, roasted, or pan-fried, chicken is the ultimate canvas for enhancing with complementary sweet and savory ingredients.
For this feature, we leaned into Asian-inspired salad kits, including Chinese, Thai, Korean and Japanese flavors. Among the things we learned is that the crucial elements in a great salad are a terrific dressing and mindfully cut veggies. Large, rough cuts of super crunchy cabbage, for example, are hard to eat and don't have enough surface area to hold dressing. Thin-cut cabbage, delicate vegetable shreds and greens with ruffly leaves are far more easily dressed.
