While waiting for boil use the one empty broth can to scramble the two eggs. Add the corn starch to the other can that is still half full of chicken broth and stir well. When broth boils, add the scrambled eggs by drizzling it in with a fork. Stir as you go in order to keep egg from sticking to bottom of pot.

Perfect restaurant quality egg flower soup! Enjoy!

SHOW #4 - Steak Bruchetta 

WATCH THE SHOW - 4

 
 
Ingredients:
1 lbs steak
1/2 lbs mushrooms
1 French bread baguette
2 oz capers
1-2 tblsp soy sauce
4-5 tblsp olive oil
steak seasoning to your taste
Rosemary to your taste
Sage to your taste
Thyme to your taste
cracked pepper to your taste
Place steak seasoning on steaks and place steaks on grill. While steaks are grilling, cut the baguette into 1/4-1/2 inch slices. Pour olive oil onto a plate and rub one side of each piece of sliced bread in it. Once all slices have been rubbed in olive oil crack pepper on each one. After the pepper, you can add a pinch of each of the other spices to the slices (to taste). Place the bread in the oven at 325º for 20 minutes. Make sure not to overcook the bread. While the bread and steaks are cooking, take a saute pan out and put the mushrooms, soy sauce and butter in it. Cook on medium high heat until the mushrooms are just cooked. Don't over cook. When the steaks are done, slice them thinly. When the bread is done, remove from oven. Place the blue cheese, mushooms and capers in ramicans and place the meat & bread on a plate. Try stacking blue cheese then capers (they stick to the blue cheese) then mushrooms and top it off with the steak. Woohoo! Awesome!

Ingredients:
6 cups cooked & chilled white rice
1 pounded boneless skinless chicken breast
12-15 frozen shrimp
1/4 - 1/2 lb of shredded or chopped pork
3 eggs
1/2 cup frozen carrots & peas
1/4 - 1/2 cup of chopped green onions
1 tblsp minced garlic
soy sauce for color; to taste
2 tblsp sesame seed
cracked pepper to taste
3 tblsp olive oil

Instructions:
Pound the chicken breast until flat. Fry chicken in very little canola oil with a little salt and pepper. Once cooked, slice the chicken and put aside. Scramble the eggs in a cup. Pour olive oil into 12" medium heated pan. Pour scrambled eggs into pan with the oil. Scramble the eggs in the oil and when finished push the eggs to the side. Add the butter to pan and then add the garlic and chopped onions. Sauté the onions and garlic on a low to medium heat for a few minutes until the onions are soft. Add the chicken, shrimp and pork to the sauté. Cook the meats on low medium heat for a few minutes until they are warm. Now stir the eggs, the meats and the sautéed onions and garlic all together. Once mixed thoroughly add the rice. Once again mix everything together well. Sprinkle the sesame seeds and pepper in the mixture and stir thoroughly again. Finally add enough soy sauce to turn it slightly brown. Mix again until all of the rice is brown. Let it cook on medium heat for about five minutes while constantly stirring and mixing. That's it! Ready to serve up! When your friends ask which restaurant you ordered it from you can just smile.
