Chef’s Kitchen
Each month we bring a guest chef into our Chef’s
Kitchen column to give us tips that elevate their cooking (and hopefully
ours). They also provide a recipe that showcases their tips. Our guest
chef this month is Executive Chef
Jared Dill of Morton's The SteakHouse Seattle. Morton's Restaurant
Group, Inc., is the world's largest operator of company-owned upscale
steakhouses. They've remained true to the founders' original vision of
generous portions of high-quality food prepared to exacting standards
accompanied by high-level service. The company owns and operates 77
Morton's steakhouses located in 64 cities in 26 states and in Puerto
Rico and six international locations, as well as Trevi, a Las Vegas
Italian restaurants. The Seattle location was opened in December of 1999
and is a subterranean find--you won't want to leave the cocoon once the
meal has been savored.
 Jared
Dill, a native of Fort Collins, Colorado, has been with Morton's The
Steakhouse since 2006. Dill began at Morton's in Portland and quickly
became an expert on the broiler, a coveted skill for a Morton's chef. He
was promoted to Executive Chef at Morton's Seattle in the summer of
2010. Prior to his career at Morton's, Dill opened four Bugatti's fine
dining Italian restaurants in the Portland, Oregon, area. In his home kitchen,
Dill enjoys cooking traditional Mexican dishes including tamales and chile verde.
The meat/fish balancing act
By Executive Chef Jared Dill
Preparing a restaurant-quality bacon-wrapped sea
scallop appetizer can easily be achieved at home with this helpful hint.
Cook the bacon to approximately 3/4 doneness and remove it from the
oven. This will allow the bacon to achieve the perfect doneness when
finished in the oven with the scallops. Failure to do this will result
in rubbery, overdone scallops and raw, limp bacon.
