A true holiday classic, Ricardo suggests a quick and easy meat stew. This rich sauce will please old and young alike.

GOURMET TIP: Try this sauce with chicken cubes for a little something different.

Pork

A delicious sauce that’ll take you for a trip down memory lane! Combine 900 g of minced pork, 40 g of panko breadcrumbs, and 1 egg; shape into 30 ml balls. This meal would be great served with potatoes and steamed green vegetables. Brown the meatballs in a non-stick pan coated in oil. Add the sauce and let simmer for 15 minutes. You can also cook meatballs in your slow cooker on low for 4 hours.

Chicken

Why not reinvent a timeless classic? This sauce pairs perfectly with chicken, for a meal that’s nutritious and delicious! Brown 2 lb. of deboned, skinless chicken thighs in a pan, then transfer to your slow cooker and coat with sauce. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.

CRANBERRY AND ORANGE COOKING SAUCE

Sweet and tangy, this cranberry and orange cooking sauce pairs nicely with a roast turkey. Comfort food at its finest!

GOURMET TIP: Try this sauce with chicken or white fish.

Turkey

For a slow cooker classic, coat 1 kg of turkey drumsticks in sauce, place in slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours. If you prefer using the oven, brown one 1.8 kg turkey roast (with skin) in a pan coated in 30 ml of oil, cover and cook in the oven (set to 375 degrees Fahrenheit) for an hour and a half.

White fish

A healthy and delicious option would be to marinate white fish filets in the cranberry and orange cooking sauce. Brown 4 to 6 filets on both sides in a large non-stick pan coated in 30 ml of butter. Add the sauce and let simmer 5 minutes, or until fish is cooked. Serve with rice and the vegetables of your choice.
