Coming up on this week’s show, a Winter Citrus challenge with Bo Fowler, chef and owner of Owen & Engine here in Chicago, as both she and Rick attempt to come up with an easy weeknight meal in 15 minutes or less using just some citrus, plus five extra ingredients you can find pretty much anywhere.

Fowler emigrated from Korea and was raised in Minnesota, where she attended the University of Minnesota and, like all future chefs, got a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry.

She has opened two restaurants in Chicago: Fat Willy’s Barbecue Shack and just up the street, an English gastropub called Owen & Engine, where the menu features much more than just ale and meat pies. She joins us here in the test kitchen, to work out a main dish relying on winter citrus.
