Season Your D*mn Meats
Picture this scenario for a second: you’re at the humble abode of a person you’ve been seeing for a while, and they make you a meal. It looks quite delicious, so you dig in, only to realize a terrible truth: they didn’t season the meat. If this has yet to happen to you, know that that is a red flag, and you have been warned. Here are some ways I like to season and cook some meats because I would never wish the alternative even on my greatest enemies.Sweet-Kick Chicken
- uncooked/precooked chicken
- honey bbq sauce
- black pepper
- red pepper flakes
Place some honey bbq sauce onto a pan with a medium heat burner, and let it sit with some black pepper and red pepper flakes. After a short while, place the chicken onto the pan, over a stove on medium-high heat, and shake it around so it can cook in the mix of sweetness and spiciness.Sweet Salmon Zest
- tail cut salmon
- honey
- salt
- lemon pepper
- orange
- lemon
Place your cut of salmon, skin down, onto a baking pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Brush a thin layer of honey on top of the salmon, and sprinkle some salt and lemon pepper. Cut your orange and lemon into thin slices, and surround the salmon with them by overlapping them. When that is all ready, place the pan into a 375°F oven for thirty minutes.
