Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided (250 g)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks, room temperature (230 g)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (250 g)
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 2 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
  • 5 tablespoons ice water
  • 4 strips bacon
  • 2 cups small broccoli floret (300 g)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk (240 mL)
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT
  • pie weights, coffee beans, or dried beans
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  2. Add 2 cups (200 g) of cheddar cheese and the butter to a large bowl. Mix to combine with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer.
  3. Add the flour, paprika, garlic powder, and 2 teaspoons salt and mix well. Add 3 tablespoons of ice water and mix. Add the remaining ice water 1 tablespoon at a time. The dough should hold together when pinched, but crumble apart if you break it up in your hand. If it seems too dry, add a bit more ice water.
  4. Transfer the dough to a clean surface and knead with your hands until it comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, then wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  5. Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a circle about ⅛ inch (8 mm) thick. Carefully transfer the crust to a 9½-inch (24-cm) glass pie dish.
  6. Trim the edges (save the trimmings to make crackers!). Poke holes in the bottom of the crust with a fork, then use the tines to crimp the edges. Line the dough with parchment paper and fill with pie weights.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes, until the edges are crisp.
  8. While the crust is baking, prepare the fillings. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 5-7 minutes. Using tongs, remove the bacon from the skillet and let drain on paper towels until cool enough to handle.
  9. Add the broccoli to the skillet and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
  10. Chop the bacon.
  11. Remove the pie weights from the crust, then add the broccoli and chopped bacon to the center. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
  12. In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the milk, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and the pepper. Whisk to combine.
  13. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings in the crust.
  14. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned. Cover the edges with tinfoil if they are starting to burn.
  15. Let the quiche cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  16. Enjoy!

  • 420g bread flour
  • 30g cocoa powder
  • 100g cold butter, cut into small cubes
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 45g sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 150g milk chocolate chips
  • 4 tbsp plain flour

  • Sugar syrup, to glaze
Instructions
  1. Heat the oven to 200C/400C.
  2. Add the milk and Baileys Chocolat Luxe to a jug and heat in the microwave for 1 min. Leave to cool to blood temperature, then add the yeast and 1 tsp of the sugar and stir to combine. Leave the yeast to bloom for 5 mins.
  3. Add the flour, cocoa, salt and butter to a large mixing bowl and rub in the butter until the mixture has the texture of fine breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, then make a well in the middle and add the 2 eggs and the milky yeast mixture. Bring the mixture together into a soft dough, then turn out onto a floured work surface and knead for 10 mins until the dough is smooth and stretchy. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover in cling film and leave to proof somewhere warm for a couple of hours, or until the dough has doubled in size.
  4. Tip the dough out onto a floured surface and spread out into a rectangle. Sprinkle with the chocolate chips and knead again so that they are evenly dispersed.
  5. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, shape into buns, place on a lined tray and cover with cling film until doubled in size again, about another hour.
  6. Mix the flour with enough Baileys Original to form a stiff paste. Score the top of each bun with a cross and pipe the flour paste into the crosses. Bake for 20-25 mins until risen and smelling lovely and chocolately. Place on a wire rack and brush with sugar syrup, then leave to cool.
  7. Serve halved and toasted with lots of butter and enjoy!

Amazing Italian Lemon Butter Chicken

Amazing Italian Lemon Butter Chicken
About eight years ago, a dear Italian woman introduced me to this dish. She has since passed away and taken her recipes with her, as she had nothing written down. This is the closest of all my attempts to duplicate her dish. It is delicious and easier to make than it looks.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
Lemon Butter Sauce:
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 5 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 cup butter, chilledsalt and pepper to taste
Chicken and Pasta:
  • ½ pound dry farfalle (bow tie) pasta
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to ¼ inch thickness
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ¼ cup all-purpose floursalt and pepper to taste
  • 4 ounces bacon6 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 6 ounces artichoke hearts, drained and halved
  • 2 teaspoons capers, drainedchopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
  1. To make the sauce, pour the wine and lemon juice into a saucepan over medium heat. Cook at a low boil until the liquid is reduced by ⅓. Stir in cream, and simmer until it thickens. Gradually add the butter 1 tablespoon at a time to the sauce, stirring until completely incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, and keep warm.
  2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
  3. To make the chicken, heat oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. In a bowl, stir together flour, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat chicken with flour mixture. Without crowding, carefully place chicken in hot oil. (If necessary, cook in batches.) Fry until cooked through and golden brown on both sides. Remove the chicken to paper towels. Stir the bacon, mushrooms, artichokes, and capers into the oil; cook until the mushrooms are soft.
  4. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size strips, and return them to the skillet. Stir half of the lemon butter sauce into the chicken mixture.
  5. To serve, place pasta in a large bowl. Stir the chicken mixture into the pasta. Taste, and adjust seasonings. Stir in additional lemon butter sauce as desired. Toss well, and garnish with parsley.
