Plated’s Gnocchi Pomodoro. This massive dish is better suited for 3-4 adults rather than the 2 who ordered it. Size does not equal taste, however. While the recipe on its own is bland, it is a solid foundation for a hearty meal for your family. Continue reading “Gnocchi Pomodoro”

Plated’s “Spicy Crunchy Shrimp Bowl” was neither spicy or crunchy. Then I went and served it on a plate. But there was a TON of shrimp. Overall it was … well, weird. Pickled radish? Not really a fan. The rice was good. The shrimp was okay. The seaweed salad was incredible!! Continue reading “Spicy Crunchy Shrimp Bowl”
9:15PM is too late to be serving Martha’s Hanger Steak & Chimichurri with potato and poblano salad.

Plated’s Seared Steak with Roasted Tomato Chimichurri. Good flavor, easy to prepare. We’re full.
Minor modification: withhold one of the three cloves of garlic from the chimichurri sauce and mince it. Use it during the first (and only) flip of the steaks at around 3 minutes. Add 1 tbsp butter to the pan and spoon the liquid and garlic over the steaks for the next 2-3 minutes until they reach 130F. Spoon the pan sauce over the steaks as they rest on a plate.
They did forget to mention trimming the ends of the snap peas. Do that.
I also roasted the vegetables for an extra 4-5 minutes.
Other than that, the recipe is pretty solid.
