Good morning! Today we have for you:
-
A skewerless chicken satay dinner
-
Plus, crispy rice with shrimp (mmm), bacon (yes) and corn (absolutely)
Hey, all! Genevieve here, filling in for Melissa and channeling our shared love for genius chefs’ recipes that we can actually make at home. The latest is the best possible breakfast for dinner: Golden Diner pancakes.
The chef Sam Yoo created these beauties for his restaurant in Chinatown in Manhattan, where 600-plus diners line up for hours every weekend to eat them. They have the two-sided crackle of waffles with the tenderness of cake inside tall, picture-perfect rounds. At Golden Diner, the cooks slide their batter-filled battalion of skillets under a professional broiler to set the pancakes.
At home, however, you might have no more than one small nonstick pan, so I adapted the technique: Flip a pancake on the stove to brown both sides first, then slide it into the oven on a rack-lined sheet pan to bake through; repeat with the rest of the batter. This makes it easy to serve them all at the same time.

Golden Diner Pancakes
As special as the pancakes themselves are, it’s the toppings that make this dish exceptional: salty-sweet maple-honey syrup with a touch of soy sauce, maple-honey butter and a tangy berry compote. (I bet that trio would be great on my lemon ricotta pancakes or any other pancakes or waffles.)
