SUNNY'S CHORIZO PANZANELLA CHEAT SHEET
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with nonstick aluminum foil. Line a second sheet tray with parchment paper.
- Spread the cubed bread on the sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Place the chorizo slices on the sheet tray lined with foil, leaving space between each piece.
- In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, 2 tablespoons olive oil, a generous pinch of salt and pepper, the red pepper flakes, lemon zest and Italian seasoning and stir to combine. Transfer to the sheet tray with the chorizo and spread out in an even layer.
- Place both sheet trays in the oven. Bake the bread cubes until toasted, 8 to 10 minutes. Roast the tomatoes and chorizo until the chorizo is cooked through and the tomatoes start to release their juices, 20 to 25 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the toasted bread cubes and roasted tomatoes and chorizo with the liquid on the sheet tray. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil along with the scallions and cilantro and toss to combine. Add a little more olive oil if needed. Let sit until ready to serve. Transfer to a serving bowl.
GARLICKY SMOTHERED CORNISH HENS
Provided by Sunny Anderson
Time 2h5m
Yield 2 to 4 servings
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Prepare the hens: In a mini food processor, pulse the garlic and 1 teaspoon salt to a paste. Using your fingers, make a pocket between the flesh and the skin of each Cornish hen. Stuff half the garlic paste between the skin and the flesh of the hens, evenly covering by pushing the paste along the flesh from the outside. Rub both hens all over with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and a grind of pepper. Cross the legs of each hen and tie together with kitchen string. Set aside and allow to come to room temperature for about an hour.
- In a baking dish large enough to hold both hens, mix together the remaining garlic paste, the bell pepper, onions, cayenne pepper, paprika, a pinch of salt and a grind or 2 of pepper.
- Place the prepared hens on top of the vegetables in the pan and slowly pour in 2 cups chicken stock. Place in the oven and cook until the temperature reaches 160 degrees F between the leg and the body of the hen when tested with an instant-read thermometer, about 40 minutes.
- Remove the hens from oven and remove from the pan to a plate. Cover lightly with aluminum foil to keep them warm while making the gravy. In a medium saute pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the vegetables from the baking dish and the flour. Whisk the flour briskly until it is combined with all the pan contents. Add the wine and let reduce. Take a sip of wine for yourself; you've worked hard. Stir in the remaining 1 cup chicken stock. Taste and season with salt and pepper, and then cook until the sauce has thickened to a gravy consistency, about 5 more minutes. To serve, remove the aluminum foil from the hens. Remove the string and cut in the birds in half. Pour the gravy over the top and garnish with chopped parsley.
SUNNY'S CHEAT SHEET WITH COD, EASY CILANTRO-LIME RICE AND NO-TROUBLE RATATOUILLE
Steps:
- Prepare the ratatouille: Preheat the oven or a grill to 375 degrees F.
- Make a rectangle packet bottom half the size of your baking sheet using aluminum foil. Pour in the marinara sauce. Add the veggies in a pattern of zucchini, yellow squash, zucchini, yellow squash, onion, and repeat. Once done, brush the top with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Cover and close with aluminum foil. Place on the baking sheet and in the oven or grill and cook for 20 minutes.
- For the fish: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the butter, mustard, paprika, chili powder and garlic. Sprinkle the fish on all sides with salt and pepper. Make a foil packet bottom for the fish. For each piece of fish, place an equal amount of the spice butter on the foil, then place the fish on top and top with another equal amount of the spice butter. Cover with another piece of foil.
- Once the ratatouille has cooked 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet and remove the top from the foil packet. Place the fish packet on the baking sheet next to the ratatouille and return to the oven. Bake for about 15 minutes.
- For the rice: Squeeze the rice in the bags to loosen. Make a packet bottom a quarter of the size of the baking sheet and add the rice, cilantro and lime zest. Gently stir with a fork, then top and close tightly with another piece of foil. Place on the final space on the baking sheet next to the fish packet. Bake until the rice is hot, another 5 minutes.
- Remove the cheat sheet from the oven. Carefully open the fish packet and allow the steam to escape. Carefully open the rice packet, then spritz with lime juice and fluff. Serve immediately.
