CRISPY BLACK CHICKEN WITH APPLE CIDER VINEGAR SAUCE AND ROASTED GARLIC, DIRTY RICE AND HEIRLOOM GLAZED CARROTS
Steps:
- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the garlic cloves onto a sheet tray and roast, 20 minutes.
- Set up a deep fryer with canola oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Fry the brussels sprouts until crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Season with salt.
- Lower the temperature on the fryer to 275 degrees F.
- Combine the cornstarch, baking powder and salt to taste in a wide shallow dish. Dredge the chicken halves in the cornstarch mixture and shake off any excess. Deep-fry the chicken for 10 minutes, then remove from the oil onto a paper towel-lined tray.
- Increase the temperature on the fryer to 400 degrees F. Place the chicken back into the fryer to crisp for 5 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Add 1/4 cup each of the apple cider and apple cider vinegar to a large saute pan placed over medium-high heat. Allow to reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Add half the chicken stock and salt to taste. Reduce by half, about 5 minutes, then add the remaining chicken stock. Add the roasted garlic and allow the sauce to reduce, 5 to 7 minutes. Finish the sauce with the remaining 2 tablespoons each apple cider and apple cider vinegar and the butter.
- For the dirty rice: Add the onion, salt to taste and 2 tablespoons of the extra-virgin olive oil to a medium saucepan and turn the heat to medium high. Sweat the onion until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat. Toast for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock, bay leaves and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce to a simmer and cook until the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- Heat a large saute pan with the remaining 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and salt to taste. Saute until translucent, 5 minutes. Add the chicken livers and blood sausage and brown until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the cooked rice to the pan and stir to combine, tossing to thoroughly coat the rice in the chicken livers and blood sausage. Remove the pan from the heat, add the brandy and ignite with a click lighter. Put the pan back on the heat and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the alcohol has cooked off. Turn off the heat and stir in the scallions.
- For the glazed carrots: Season a pot of boiling water generously with salt. It should be as salty as the sea. Prepare an ice bath and season generously with salt. Add the carrots to the boiling water and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until tender but still slightly crisp. Remove the carrots and immediately plunge into the ice bath. Set aside.
- Melt the butter, brown sugar and cayenne together in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken stock and the blanched carrots. Toss to coat the carrots, then allow the liquid to reduce until the glaze has thickened, 5 minutes. If the mixture needs to be thinned out, you can add a bit more chicken stock.
- To plate: Place a scoop of dirty rice onto the plate. Top with the glazed carrots, followed by the chicken. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, making sure to include the roasted garlic cloves. Garnish with the crispy Brussels sprouts and micro radish.
APPLE CIDER AND SAUTEED APPLE BASMATI RICE
Steps:
- Heat a Dutch oven over low heat and add the oil. Add the onions and sweat until translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium, add the apples, tossing well, and cook until they start to brown. Add the rice and thyme. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then add the chicken stock, apple juice, butter, vinegar and some salt and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce the heat to low and cook until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
- Fluff with a fork and adjust the salt as needed.
WILD RICE AND ROASTED SQUASH SALAD WITH CIDER VINAIGRETTE
Toothsome wild rice, caramelized roasted veggies and crisp radicchio all shine in this generous salad, which can be served as a hearty side or satisfying lunch. Radicchio adds a pop of color and a punch of bitterness, but a peppery green like arugula would also make a great substitute. This salad is tossed with a generous batch of mustard-cider vinaigrette. If you decide to double the dressing or have any left over, it pairs beautifully with just about any grain or hearty green, and will keep refrigerated for up to three days.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the center of the oven.
- Prepare the rice: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the wild rice to the boiling water, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the rice until tender and most grains have split, 40 to 50 minutes. Drain the rice.
- While the rice cooks, roast the squash: On a baking sheet, toss the squash with the olive oil, paprika and a sprinkle of kosher salt and pepper. Spread the squash into an even layer, then transfer to the oven to roast, stirring a few times, until golden and tender, about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette: In a small saucepan, bring the apple cider to a boil over high. Boil the cider until it has reduced to about 1/4 cup, 10 to 15 minutes. Carefully transfer the cider syrup to a jar with a lid (don't put the lid on yet) and let it cool slightly. Add the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, shallot, mustard, salt and pepper. Screw the lid on tightly and shake vigorously to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the salad: Add the cooked rice, roasted squash, radicchio, cherries and parsley to a large bowl. Shake the vinaigrette to combine, then drizzle a few tablespoons over the salad and toss gently to combine. Add more vinaigrette to taste. (You may have a bit of extra vinaigrette; refrigerate it for up to 3 days and toss with other greens or grains.)
- Top the salad with the toasted walnuts and a sprinkle of flaky salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper.
- Get a skillet very hot. Once it is hot, add oil to it and brown the chicken on both sides. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, until it's a nice, golden color. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate. It's okay that it's undercooked, it will finished cooking in the sauce.
- Over high heat, brown the shallots.
- Add cider vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pan, getting all the shallots and any leftover browned chicken bits.
- Before the vinegar evaporates, add the cider and the apple slices. Let this reduce on high for about 3 minutes. The apples and shallots will get very tender.
- While they reduce, mix the chicken broth and the cornstarch until there are no lumps left, then slowly add it to the bubbling cider and apples, stirring all the time while the sauce thickens.
- Mix in thyme, mustard, salt and pepper.
- Return the chicken and its juices back into the sauce, turn down to medium-low and summer for at least 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked all the way through. Serve with hot cooked rice.

Steps:
- Start the rice pudding: In a medium pot, combine the milk, cider, rice, brown sugar, and salt over medium heat. Stirring frequently, heat the mixture to a simmer. Continue to simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender and absorbs most of the liquid and the liquid becomes thick, 25 to 30 minutes.
- While the pudding cooks, make the candied pecan topping: In a medium pot, combine the granulated sugar with the cinnamon, 1/4 cup water and a pinch of salt. Begin to heat over medium heat until the mixture melts, stirring gently occasionally.
- Cook the mixture, stirring frequently, until light golden brown and boiling. Continue cooking, swirling frequently without stirring, until golden brown and caramelized. Add the pecans and continue to cook over medium heat, stirring frequently to glaze and coat the nuts fully. Continue cooking, tossing, until the mixture no longer appears liquid and the nuts become more difficult to stir, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the cream and vanilla, stirring well to combine.
- Pour onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to cool completely, 10 to 15 minutes, then coarsely chop.
- Finish the rice pudding: When the rice pudding has reached the appropriate doneness, turn the heat to low, and stir in the cream, butter, and vanilla. Cook until the mixture is heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Serve the rice pudding warm or pour it into a heatproof bowl, cover directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve cold. Serve dusted with cinnamon and topped with the coarsely chopped candied nuts.
