Cataplana Portuguese seafood stew

I'm on a cooking adventure and progressively learning to cook some Portuguese dishes. My first attempt was the Francesinha sandwich that I'm convinced was invented by someone who needed a hangover cure. I can share that recipe another day. But for today, this was my second attempt and it turned out stunningly delicious. It's a Cataplana which is a Portuguese seafood stew.

Cowboy butter salad dressing

After I made the cowboy butter the other day to go with the tomahawk steak we had for lunch, we still had A LOT of steak leftover. Two people cannot eat 2 kilos of steak. It's just not physically possible for us. Anyway, with the leftover steak, I decided to use it in a salad and turn the cowboy butter into a creamy salad dressing. Yum! And it's super easy.

Cowboy butter and dipping sauce (apparently it's a viral thing)

I didn't know there was such a thing as Cowboy Butter until I tried it with prawns at our local pub. The pub has just been taken over by some new owners and the prawns in cowboy butter was a new side dish on the menu. Yum! Then I did a search and found out that apparently this was viral on the clock app about a year ago. Since I have a hate-hate relationship with that app, I had no clue. I am not what you'd call a trendy person. Good thing the new owners of our local pub is. I'm making it today to go over a tomahawk steak we got from our local butcher, so decided to throw up the recipe on the website. Enjoy!

Slow cooked braised garlic chicken UPDATED

My original braised garlic chicken from a decade ago has been super popular over the years and each time I make it, I get asked for the recipe. I've tweaked and updated the recipe from the original, so I thought I had better update the recipe on the website too. You won't find me blathering on an on (one of the few places I don't!) so let's get right onto the recipe.
