Sam Choy's in the Kitchen: Fueling Fitness with Flavor!
On this episode of Sam Choy's in the Kitchen, we're getting a taste of the fit life at the home of Jerry Kim—bodybuilder and co-owner of Powerhouse Gym in Aiea. Jerry's all about fueling his body with clean, nutritious meals, so Sam and John are whipping up dishes that match his dedication to health without sacrificing flavor.
First up, Sam and John create a lean, protein-packed dish: turkey patties loaded with fresh asparagus and mushrooms. This healthy twist on a classic favorite keeps things light while adding a boost of vitamins and minerals. The asparagus brings a nice crunch, while the mushrooms add a rich umami depth—eating clean doesn't mean eating bland. Jerry gives his stamp of approval, sharing how important it is to have delicious, nutritious meals that keep him energized for his intense training sessions.
But the feast doesn't stop there! Jerry's training partner, Mikey Monis, joins in for the next round—flank steak with Uncle Sam's Choy Chimichurri. This vibrant sauce takes things to the next level with a local twist, blending fresh lilikoi, juicy tomatoes, crisp onions, and a jalapeño hot sauce kick. The tangy, spicy, and slightly sweet flavors perfectly complement the tender, grilled flank steak, making it a dish that's both satisfying and packed with nutrients for muscle recovery.
Jerry and Mikey walk away with some new favorite recipes, showing that even the fittest folks can indulge in bold, island-inspired flavors while staying on track with their goals.
