Crab, Shrimp and Pork Pot Stickers

Crab, Shrimp and Pork Pot Stickers

I absolutely love eating pot stickers. What’s not to love about them? Crispy on one side, tender on the other and bursting with a flavorful crab, shrimp and pork filling. These are simple to assemble and sheer gold sitting in your freezer! The uncooked pot stickers can be placed on a parchment-lined tray (make sure they’re not touching) and frozen.

Soy-Glazed Black Cod with Orange Zest

Soy-Glazed Black Cod with Orange Zest

In the deep blue depths of Alaska’s pristine waters lies what some would consider the best tasting fish in the world–Black Cod.
