Chef zee!! I have people coming over today and I’m like ok cool I can make some Pastelitos to pollo real quick. I always use your recipe and right now I just thought hmmm I have yucca too maybe I can also make some yuquita frita. And I got hype came here to see if you have a video and I’m like ughhhh I don’t see one. Hopefully you’ll make one soon. Just giving you some ideas. Thanks again for all that you do. I actually added some of your recipes to my recipe book in the kitchen so that way I don’t always have to come back to the videos. Of coarse I wrote down that it’s from you so you get the credit so whoever inherits the book will know. Thanks again. Hopefully a yuca frita video soon

[@jessicacorrea410]

This looks amazing!!! Would love to see francese sauce and also a lemony, garlicky, white winey sauce lol, you get the drift 😂

Anyway, i want to thank you so much for all the hard work you do! I have some dominican food ideas for you. How to make Domplin Augado en Queso o Domplin con Arenque or how to make Yaniqueca!

[@Chefzeecooks]

Thank you 😋

[@yankeeholic22]

Literally made your pepper steak today with your rice !😍😍😍😍😍 anytime I cook any of your dishes I always tell my family about you ! Cant wait to try this recipe! Can kids eat this ? I'm always curious when a dish is cooked with alcohol

[@ilianamedina2331]

Same on telling my family about her! I’ve shared her page infinite times already😂 so easy to forward her content when they ask for recipe. Her guandules are Gold that’s my usual

[@MaggieBoy12345]

Dishes cooked with alcohol are fine for kids (if done correctly), as the alcohol itself will reduce during the cooking process. If that weren't the case, we'd all be feeling a bit boozy after eating shrimp scampi or penne vodka. The main thing is to make sure the alcohol reduces by at least half. Another way to check this is to waft as your alcohol cooks down (never try to sniff alcohol directly). By the time your sauce is sufficiently reduced, you won't be detecting any alcohol fumes.

[@raniaamir817]

Hi dear friend 💗 Wow yummy From Healthcare remedy

[@zenoxgaming3316]

You are awesome

[@shaynamendez1581]

Hi Zee. What cookware do you use? Any specific brand of pots and pan sets you recommend?

[@Chefzeecooks]

I JUST posted a video today where I answer exactly this. I hope that this helps! Thanks for watching.

[@jykirachanelle2599]

Zee what can I substitute vodka with?

[@lbabytutorials4852]

The penne sauce that is pre made in jars do they already add the vodka?

[@ilianamedina2331]

I made this but the ingredients said 1/2 cup of pasta water and the video while you were doing said remove 2 cups of pasta water so I added that🙁 I added too much pasta water now but let’s see how it comes out 🤣 still looks delicious so far.

[@ilianamedina2331]

Updated it was DELICIOUS. I think it was supposed to have the 2 cups, can’t wait to make it again!

[@laceymeyer8055]

Hi! How many does this cook for?

[@JCLopez503]

May I use grey goose?

[@FireVR8]

When did you put sugar?

[@kayleeschrage4439]

how long does it take to make

[@Chefzeecooks]

It takes about 30mins

[@jenseyantoniorodriguez9658]

Hey girl!!! I need you! PLEASE Show me how to make some egg rolls!! I just got a deep fryer from bed bath and beyond! Please help!!

[@kassemdaisy157]

Can I skip the cheese

[@algenizorrilla8162]

Wished you showed it with chicken

[@tomaxxamot2016]

[@Chefzeecooks]

Heyyyy. Thanks for watching!

[@jeannettep3505]

Why does it look like your measuring cup for the vodka is completely full but the recipe says 1cup.

[@thedecider1984]

she's cute

[@patriciamujeresdefeyvalor]

Lo boy a tratar

[@MelMar-fm7cy]

Why is it called like that 😭 penne allá vonka

[@ProtoEliteTV]

One of my fav dishes with thin sliced chicken breast. Taste great with Rigatoni as well as it holds the sauce in the middle. I substitute whit onions with shallots, my preference. But great choice using white onion rather than yellow. You didnt offer me a shot of Tito’s 😩 You’re great. Lovely vibes. Buen provecho. Im going to add you on ig.
