Thanksgiving meatmas: Meat stuffed with meat wrapped in meat.

Making:

Sausage stuffed chicken wrapped in cherry wood smoked bacon with a cherry shallot sauce

6 servings prepared

Here's what I have:

26.4 oz of chicken breast

16 oz Italian sausage

9 strips Cherrywood thick-cut bacon

The sauce:

1 oz red wine vinegar

2 tablespoons Cherry preserves

1 teaspoon butter

4 oz shallot

1/4 cup vegetable broth

Preparation:

The sausage was split into three equal parts and rolled into a long shape. These were then set to the side. Next the chicken was flattened with a meat tenderizing mallet until it was spread out enough to place the sausage inside and wrap the chicken around it. These were secured with toothpicks and then three strips of bacon or used to wrap around the chicken. Any Loose Ends of bacon were secure to the chicken with toothpicks as well.

The oven was preheated to 375°, total bake time was 75 minutes.

To make the sauce a bit of butter was melted in a sauce pan. The shallots were added and cooked until soft. Next vegetable broth was added along with the cherry preserves. This was allowed to cook until boiling, the vinegar was added and the heat turned down. The sauce was then allowed to cook until reduced.

The plate!

One chicken is enough for two servings.

Cheese tortilla party

Making: Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder 30 Grams butter powder 419 grams hot water Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked. Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form. The plate! - Kris
