Sam Choy's island flavors

About this book

Fresh, healthful ingredients, unexpected combinations of spicy and sweet, and low-key preparation characterize the dishes Hawaiians have been enjoying since Choy opened his first restaurant in 1991. But the key to his unique style is in the brilliant marriage of a main ingredient, a marinade, and a sauce to form a rich, complex taste. Here are more than 200 dishes, such as Spicy Chicken Wingettes, Big Island Avocado Bisque, Pan-Fried Catfish with Sam’s Sweet and Sour Sauce, Smoked Shrimp with Mango Salsa, Macadamia Nut Chicken Breasts with Tropical Marmalade, and Papaya Passion Fruit Cake.
