Private Chef recipes are always requested by our guests. Much of a private chef’s days involve careful meal planning and preparation, especially when it comes to ensuring client satisfaction. 

Each client comes with different needs and preferences, and they’ll want to enjoy a colorful cuisine adventure every single week. That said, private chefs are constantly investing and re-inventing, trying to come up with recipes that satisfy, transcend, and speak volumes.

Most personal chefs combine their recipes into a single master cookbook.  The chefs can come back to their palatable discoveries as needed. Luckily, most chefs are generous enough to share their genius, and the world now revels in recipes aplenty.

To help spruce up your dinner plans, here are some new recipes to try—and definitely enjoy:

The Perfect Roast Pork

A hearty meal made possible by an unlikely ingredient—coffee.  To achieve the perfect roast pork, you’ll need a combination of herbs and spices. You’ll also want brown sugar for the perfect hint of sweetness.  Brown sugar is also responsible for the crisp and caramelized layer and can be enjoyed as the table centerpiece.

The flavor profile lies in the coffee, however—seeping deep into the meat, you’ll find an aroma unlike any other. Enjoy it over your choice of wine and family laughter, with side dishes of buttered vegetables and mashed potatoes. Here’s what you need for the dry rub, to be marinated for 24 hours before roasting:

● Fine brown sugar – ½ cup
● Ground, decaffeinated coffee – 1 cup
● Parmesan cheese powder – ⅓ cup
● Mustard powder – ¼ cup
● Granulated garlic – ⅓ cup
● Pepper – 2 tablespoons
● Ground rosemary – 1 teaspoon
● Adobo seasoning – 2 tablespoons

The Freshest Salmon Burgers

The perfect brunch meal on a hot summer day.  On days where poultry may seem too much, turning to the wonderful produce of the ocean is key to client satisfaction. You’ll want to ensure that you only get the freshest seafood, especially when it comes to salmon. The natural taste of a salmon should never be tainted with anything, but this recipe highlights its flavor profile without sacrificing much.

Enjoy these burgers with a cold sweet tea during brunch times, while accompanied by countless stories and equally fresh salad. Here’s what you’ll need to create the perfect salmon burger:

For the salmon patties
● Boneless fillet salmon – 500 grams
● Lemon zest – 2 tablespoons
● Lemon juice – 2 tablespoons
● Fresh parsley – 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
● Fresh chives – 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
● Red onions – 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
● Eggs – 2 pieces
● Almond flour (or any flour of choice) ⅔ cups
● Salt and pepper to taste
For the garnishes
● Lettuce
● Tomatoes
● Tartar sauce
● Onions
