Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Chili Aioli, Avocado, and Pickled Chilis

We had so much fun partnering with Chef Mike Kubiesa (co-author with Kristin Cavallari of True Comfort and True Roots) on this recipe. Our favorite thing about it? It's restaurant-quality but so doable for home cooks. He used both SKORDO Steak Seasoning and SKORDO Lemon Herb Fish Seasoning in the dish. To quote Mike, "this looks fancier than it is! I know it's a struggle for a lot of people to get quick and healthy meals out for them or their families on a nightly basis - trust me, I get it! My goal is to help you with that." Love it.

Cheeseburgers with Black Garlic Aioli and Caramelized Onions

Black Garlic is gummy, rich, sweet, fermented garlic. It brings a unique umami flavor that won't feel familiar on your palette unless you've had it before. To cut through the richness, I finished this black garlic aioli with balsamic vinegar. This makes a beautiful burger sauce that compliments our caramelized onions, made with the best steak rub- SKORDO Steak. I encourage you to experiment with these bulbs, the possibilities are endless, burgers are a safe place to start.

Chicken Souvlaki Skewers | Tzatziki Dip

Marinated chicken + Tzatziki are two things that are better with time, so prep this the day before and you have a quick, easy dinner. This one is flexible as it can be baked or grilled. You could even save the leftovers for your next chicken gyros recipe or greek Souvlaki salad.

Steak Tip Wedge Salad | Garlic Pepper Caesar Dressing

Who doesn't love a wedge salad? Sure they can be clunky to eat, but they're refreshing and flexible. Our new Garlic Pepper is loaded with Garlic, Pepper, Brown Sugar, Paprika, Onion, Cumin, Bell Pepper, Parsley--which to me screams steakhouse salad. The coarse cracked pepper crusts beautifully on the steak tips and make this creamy dressing pop! It's very much influenced by Caesar dressing, and by using mayonnaise as the base it comes together in seconds. Make it your own by switching out different cheeses and toppings like blue cheese, bacon, hardboiled eggs, or maybe artichokes.

Crispy Tofu + Broccoli | Garlic Pepper

Crispy, Sticky, Garlic-y. This vegetarian friendly meal is quick and simple, while packing a ton of flavor. Make this one your own by swapping in your favorite vegetables, or serving with noodles instead of rice. Our new Garlic Pepper seasoning is salt-free, making it perfect for asian dishes that use a lot of soy sauce.

Maine Blueberry Chicken Skewers with Yogurt Dip

Local Portland, ME, Chef Arianna Stefanilo created these Maine Blueberry Chicken Skewers with Yogurt Dip using SKORDO's own Maine Blueberry Rub They are always on the menu and a great example of how to use the blends outside of their label suggestions.

Tikka Masala Pie

This recipe is homey, cozy and will warm you up with a nice blend of juicy seasoned chicken and velvety tomato cream sauce. 

But what made it ultra special when we made this in Baking It were the spices we used from SKORDO and we think that they made all the difference. We thought of recreating it again with all the spices we used from SKORDO and it turned out be even better.

Brothy Mediterranean Seafood Boil

This colorful and flavorful medley of seafood and stewed beans is our favorite way to quickly enjoy our newest Mediterranean Fish Seasoning. One pot boil, and all the mess is sopped up with crusty bread. Have fun switching it up with different seafood like shrimp and calamari, or add more veggies like corn or kale. If you like a bit more heat, add some crushed red peppers during your sauté. Enjoy!

Chicken Alfredo + Fennel Pollen

Kicking off the spring with fennel pollen! With its strong sweet and savory flavor, it may be the worlds best recipe finisher. It's bright and floral and balances the heaviness of this Alfredo sauce.

Citrus Salad with Fennel Pollen

Hellllloooo new ingredient! Fennel Pollen is here + ready to play! Unfamiliar with fennel pollen? We've got it all covered in this blog post- what it is, what it's like, where it comes from + more. With such a beautiful, delicate ingredient it is important to give it the spot light. Here we made a bright, springy salad that essentially dresses itself between bites with the blood oranges. It makes a great mid-day snack or an impressive appetizer ((especially with this AE Ceramics Oyster plate!)

Maine Blueberry Pork Tenderloin

We love our Maine Blueberry Pork Rub! It plays perfectly on sweet vs savory and the coarse texture makes this is a seriously flavorful bite with a smoky, caramelized crust. On the side? Beer braised cabbage with sumac + rosemary roasted potatoes to compliment the rub. The entire meal comes together in less than an hour. Enjoy!

Cast Iron Pizza

When it comes to cooking for a crowd, pizza is always successful. I love being able to get the dough, sauce, and toppings prepared in advance so all of the focus can be on having fun assembling together. Not everyone has a pizza oven or a pizza stone, but it’s usually pretty easy to find a cast iron somewhere.
