In the Kitchen with Michele Gan


Each March Serves You Right! Catering owner, Michele Gan, looks forward to the arrival of delicious and fresh spring produce. So when she was approached to host a private cooking demonstration, she was thrilled to design a menu that featured all her favorite savory seasonal spring ingredients!  



As a starter, Michele prepared a puree of fresh crushed peas and fava beans, which was paired with creamy burrata cheese and served with grilled bread and Marcona almonds. 


Spring is the beginning of artichoke season, which is why she thought our grilled artichoke salad would be the perfect item to feature for the first course. The salad includes baby spinach, radicchio, pickled baby artichokes, whipped goat cheese, pine nuts and a shallot vinaigrette.


For the entree course, Michele prepared a beautiful pan seared Alaskan halibut with lemon caper sauce. It was served over a bed of asparagus risotto with sautéed Spring vegetables.  


These three dishes encapsulate everything we love about savory spring produce. Stay tuned for something sweet!
