Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

ingredients
Teriyaki
3 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons mirin (rice wine)
4 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
3 1/2 tablespoons beer
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts or salmon filets (4 to 6 ounces each)
Salsa
1/3 cup diced, fresh pineapple
4 teaspoons diced red onion
2 1/2 tablespoons diced red bell pepper
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 teaspoon chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons orange juice
directions
For the teriyaki marinade, combine the soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, sugar, ginger and beer in a small saucepan. Cook over high heat until the mixture reduces by half. Let cool.
Marinate the chicken in the teriyaki marinade, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
For the salsa, combine all of the ingredients in a small mixing bowl. (This can be done in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.)
Preheat the grill or broiler. Grill or broil the chicken on each side until it is cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending on thickness.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

We recommend making the salsa ahead of time to let the flavors blend better (if you refrigerate it, make sure to let it come to room temp first before serving). Everything was outstanding. We let the chicken marinade for about an hour. Cooking time was perfect. The salsa isn't too spicy or too sweet and worked well with the teriyaki flavor. We served it with a simple fried rice.
