Olive Garden Parmesan Zucchini Bites




1 1/2 cups shredded and lightly patted dry zucchini
1 cup Italian seasoned panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 large egg

Shred zucchini with a vegetable grater.
When done, pat zucchini dry with a few sheets of paper towels.
While you don't need to completely dry the zucchini, you do want to absorb some of the moisture.
I used about 4 sheets of paper towels.
You want to keep drying the zucchini until the stage where when you pat the shredded zucchini with a paper towel,
the paper towel is moist but no longer soaking with water.
Preheat oven to 400 F. Measure out 1 1/2 cups of patted dry zucchini and add to a large mixing bowl.
Add egg, cheese and breadcrumbs. Stir until everything is thoroughly combined.
Take 1 tablespoon of zucchini batter and squeeze between palm of hand, compressing it.
Some water should also release out. Using both hands now, shape to resemble a cylinder tater tot shape.
Place onto a baking sheet lined with silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Repeat with remaining zucchini.
Bake for about 20 minutes until bottoms are golden brown and crispy.
Flip over and bake for another 5 minutes.
Serve warm with dipping sauce of your choice.

Clotted Cream




2 pints heavy cream

Pour the cream into a heavy-bottomed oven-safe pot.
The cream should come up the side of the pot somewhere between one and three inches.
Cover the pot and put it in the oven on 180 F.
Leave the covered pot in the oven for at least 8 to 12hours.
You’ll know it’s done because there will be a thick yellowish skin above the cream.
That skin is the clotted cream.
Let the pot cool at room temperature, then put it in the refrigerator for another 8 hours.
Remove the clotted cream from the top of the pot.
The cream that is underneath it can still be used for baking.

James Coney Island Grill Juicy Lucy




1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 slices cheese (American, Cheddar, or pepper Jack)
4 hamburger buns
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 teaspoons prepared mustard
12 dill pickle slices
4 teaspoons mayonnaise

Place the ground chuck in a medium0sized bowl and mix in the salt and the pepper. Form into eight patties, 1/4 inch thick. For each burger, cut a slice of cheeses into quarters and arrange them to fin on a meat patty. Top with another meat pepper and press the edges together so that no cheese will leak out while the burger is cooking.

Heat your grill to about 375 degrees. You can also use a skillet on medium heat. Place the patties on the grill and cook until the meat has browned on the bottom side, do not press the patties. But leave them undisturbed while they cook. Flip and cook the other side for 3 to 4 minutes.

While the burgers are cooking, butter the hamburger buns and toast them on the grill, buttered side down, until golden brown. Saute the onions in the vegetable oil until they are golden brown on the grill or in the skill over medium heat, frequently stirring, so they do not burn.

To assemble each burger, build up from the bottom, spread one teaspoon of mustard on the bottom bun, place three pickles over the bun, add the grilled hamburger patty and top with grilled onions. Spread mayonnaise on the top bread before putting it on top of the burger patty.

Cooking Tip-How to Braise Meat

If you want to enjoy a gourmet meal using inexpensive cuts of meat then you’ll want to learn how to “braise”. Braising means browning the meat oil and/or butter then slowly cooking in a covered roasting pan. The meat is covered in a liquid which usually includes some combination of water, broth and red or white wine. Cooking time can take from one to several hours as this method is used to tenderize and intensify the flavors in the meat and accompanying vegetables. Despite the time frame, most recipes are usually fairly simple and don’t require any advanced skills.
Follow these basic steps and you and your family or friends will thoroughly enjoy the results.
Step 1-Choose your favorite cut of meat. Lamb, beef, veal or pork shanks are very common in these recipes. Beef shoulder roast, chuck roast or brisket are also good choices. These cuts are usually tougher with higher levels of collagen. Collagen, when cooked at low temperatures for an extended time creates a gelatin which helps the tenderizing process. You can use chicken but it should not be skinless and bone should be in. Legs and thighs work best. The real secret is in the slow cooking.
Step 2-Brown the meat in some type of fat…olive oil, butter or some combination suggested in the particular recipe. The browning process is intended to add color and flavor enhancement. Frequently, the recipe may call for rolling the meat in flour seasoned with salt and fresh ground pepper. Again….a flavor enhancement. The browning process is done in a Dutch oven or large heavy pot with a lid. The browning step may take 10 -20 minutes to cover all sides of the meat. It only cooks the surface of the meat and the earing locks in flavor.
Some tips….the meat should be patted dry and free of moisture or it will “steam” more than brown…don’t crowd the meat so any moisture can escape. Size of the portions, if not whole, should be the roughly the same for even cooking.
Step 3-Add liquids. As I mentioned earlier, depending on the type of meat and recipe, you can use wine, water, stock/broth...usually a combination of these liquids. At this point you will usually add onions, garlic, spices, vegetables and any other flavoring you may like. Some cooks/recipes say don’t cover the meat & vegetables entirely. I have covered with liquid and the results are very good.
Step 4-Cover the Dutch oven or pan. You can cook over a stove top or in the oven. I prefer the oven as it provides more even cooking on all sides and results in the best flavor and tenderizing. Follow the recipe for the correct oven temperature. Remember it will always be low….300-325* or less.
Here are some typical cooking times...
Lamb shanks….4-6 each a pound…2 ½ hours
Veal shanks….4-6 each a pound…2-2 ½ hours
Shoulder roast…3-4 pounds…roughly an hour per pound
Chicken (remember bone in/skin on)….1-1 ½ hours
Give ‘braising” a try….you don’t have to be a gourmet cook to enjoy a wonderful meal!


Applebee's Thai Shrimp Salad




8 ounces shrimp peeled and deveined

Salt and Pepper

Spread evenly on the tray and bake for about 5 minutes or until just pink, firmed, and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and set aside.
Remove the packaging for the Asian chopped salad and pour into a large bowl.
Thoroughly wash and scrub the kale.
Chop into very small pieces and toss with the chopped salad.
Add in the red pepper (remove seeds and slice thinly), shredded carrots, and almonds or peanuts.
Chili Lime Vinaigrette

Blend until smooth, taste, adjust seasonings to preference, and brush or toss the shrimp in the sauce.
Add the shrimp to the salad.
Add in additional cilantro and seasame seeds if desired.
Top each salad plate with a generous handful of wonton strips.
Enjoy immediately.

Notes
If you don't plan on eating this salad right away, hold off on tossing it with the dressing as it makes the lettuce wilt.
Toss with dressing right before eating. Want some heat to the dressing? Add in some crushed red pepper flakes!

Stir for 2-3 seconds and immediately add the wine/soy/water mixture.
Bring it to a boil, then add the cornstarch and water mix and stir until it has thickened.
Add the chicken and vegetables back in, stir to combine.

Note
To make the chicken more like Panda Express cut the chicken into large cubes then pulsed it twice in the food processor
for just a 1/2 second each just to break it apart and give it the same unique look.

Dickey's BBQ Pit Baked Potato Casserole




4 large Russet potatoes
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup real bacon bits
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup sliced green onion tops

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Scrub the potatoes clean and bake for 1 hour.
It is not necessary to poke holes in the potatoes; in fact, if you don't they will be light and fluffy.
Only potatoes that are overcooked explode in the oven.
When they have cooled enough to handle scoop out the white flesh and place in a bowl.
Using an electric mixer, mash until smooth, then beat in the butter, sour cream, and milk.
Mix in the salt and pepper and about 1 tablespoon of the bacon bits.
Spoon the potatoes into a 2-quart casserole dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
Garnish with the remaining bacon bites, shredded cheese, and green onion tops.

Place the casserole dish in a 350 degree oven, and cook for about 15 minutes until the cheese begins to melt.

Applebee's Maple Blondie with Maple Buttercream Sauce




1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 tablespoon maple extract
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
pinch of sea salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
For the Maple Butter Cream Sauce:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoon maple syrup

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line an 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish with parchment paper (or line with foil and lightly grease).
Beat together the butter and brown sugar. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mix well.
Add the four, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well until batter forms.
Stir in the walnuts and the white chocolate chips.
Spread the batter in the baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes (the middle will still be slightly jiggly,
and there may still be a little batter on a toothpick when inserted).
Let cool for at least 10 minutes.
For the sauce:
Use a mixer or food processor to mix together the butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar,
and maple syrup (I use a small food processor to make sure I don't have any lumps!).
Pour sauce over the blondie* before serving (optional: you can heat this sauce for about 15 seconds in the microwave before serving if desired).

Notes

The sauce being poured over the ice cream in the pictures, but after extensive (ahem) taste testing,
it is better poured directly over the blondie with the ice cream on top of it all.

And if you're serving the blondie fresh out of the oven, there's really no need to heat the sauce at all, even if you want it warmed.
The high ratio of butter in the sauce will ensure that it gets all warm and melt-y once it hits the warm blondie.
