What's for Dinner at Your House?

We have all been working from home these past 3 weeks and with still another 10 days of mini-lockdown to go so my HR Manager suggested we send out goodie boxes, and because I am such a wonderful boss I agreed. Well, blatant self-interest actually. Mine arrived just now:

My engineers in Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan are back on lockdown. Hope it takes a positive turn for you guys.
 
Paprika Chicken

Chicken breasts sauteed with onions and butter, they simmered with a sauce made from sour cream, white wine, egg yolks, and chicken broth. Paprika is added toward the end, very nice when served with fresh asparagus.

Bought this “The Rock Plus” reversible grill on impulse at Costco last weekend. It was a deal at less then $17. After getting it home and reading terrible reviews, I almost decided to return it unused. Then today, I watched a few YouTube videos and decided to give it a try with smash burgers on the Weber gas grill. Very happy with the results and I think with adequate care, the griddle will work out.

So regular readers will know that a house favourite is carne asada, which I marinade in orange juice, lime juice, garlic, chili, smoked paprika, fresh coriander, cumin powder, S&P and oil. I usually use flank steak and blast it in the air fryer for about 10 mins and let it stand for about the same, slice it up and serve with guacamole, green salad and wraps.

Mrs P requested it for last night's dinner so I dutifully set off to the supermarket, picked up limes, coriander and some green stuff, then headed for the meat display. No flank steak. I went to the butchery counter, lady asked if she could help and I asked if she had any flank steak, but no, supplier hadn't sent any.

Rethink needed. I spotted some chunky looking Aussie ribeyes so asked for the largest she had - I ended up with a 450g piece and that was that.
