Sauté the potatoes with the garlic and thyme until the potatoes are almost cooked. Add the pancetta and continue to cook, until the pancetta is golden brown and crisp on the edges. Remove the thyme and garlic and check for seasoning.

Steps

1. Prepare the chicken: Season the flesh side of the chicken with half of the salt, the paprika, lemon zest, and olive oil. Flip and season the skin side with the remaining salt. Place in the refrigerator skin-side up, uncovered, and let rest for 24 hours.
2. Make the aioli: In a medium bowl, whisk together the salt, egg yolks, and lemon juice. While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the oil until emulsified. Season to taste with salt.
3. Make the paste: Smash all the ingredients together in a mortar and pestle until the coriander seeds have popped. Set aside.
4. Cook the chicken: Heat the canola oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add the chicken, skin-side down (make sure the skin is stretched over the chicken to avoid any exposed skin!), and reduce the heat to medium. Wrap a slightly smaller cast-iron pan in foil and press on top of the flesh-side of the chicken. Cook until the skin is crisp and the chicken is almost nearly cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the cast-iron skillet and carefully drain off the fat. Flip the chicken over in the skillet. Remove from the heat and let the chicken rest and carry over cooking in the skillet for around 10 more minutes.
5. Meanwhile, Make the sauce: Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Add the garlic and cook until just toasted, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, then immediately add the onions to stop the garlic from cooking any more. Cook until the onions are soft, 3 minutes, then stir in the prepared chili paste. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the wine. Cook until reduced by half, then stir in the chicken stock, bay leaves, and lemon peel. Bring to a simmer and reduce by half, 25 to 30 minutes. Season to taste with the sherry and salt. Keep warm.
6. To serve, transfer the chicken to a serving platter with a ramekin of the aioli. Drizzle the pan drippings over the chicken and top with some of the piri piri sauce. Drizzle with some olive oil and serve with fries.

Steps

1. Make the pickled tomato salsa: Bring a medium pot of water to boil and set an ice bath nearby. Remove the cores from the tomatoes and score an “X” on the undersides. Blanch for 15 seconds in the boiling water, then immediately transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking. Peel the skins with a paring knife, then seed and chop the tomatoes.
2. In a large bowl, toss the tomatoes with the scallions and serrano chiles.
3. In a medium saucepan, bring the vinegar to a boil. Add the sugar and salt and cook until dissolved, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
4. Heat the olive oil in a separate medium saucepan over medium heat until just smoking. Add the ginger, garlic, mustard seeds, cayenne, cumin, turmeric, and peppercorns and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
5. Pour the spice mixture over the tomatoes, followed by the vinegar mixture. Stir to combine, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 3-4 hours or several days.
6. Make the chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
7. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper.
8. Heat the oil in a large cast iron pan over high heat. Add the chicken skin-side down and cook for about 9 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and releases easily from the pan. Flip the chicken and finish cooking in the oven for 10 minutes, until cooked through.
9. Make the cilantro sauce. Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and season with salt, then cook until starting to brown. Add the mushrooms and cook until soft and golden, about 10 minutes.
10. Add the cilantro stems and leaves, reserving about ½ a bunch of leaves for later on. Add the cumin and jalapeños, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock. Increase the heat to high and cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
11. Add the cream and return to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat. Transfer the sauce to a blender with the reserved cilantro leaves and puree. Return the sauce to the pan.
12. Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, and vinegar together in a small bowl. While continuing to whisk, pour 1 cup (290 G) of the sauce into the egg mixture to temper. Add the egg mixture to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thick and smooth.
13. Arrange the chicken over a bed of your favorite rice and spoon the cilantro sauce over. Garnish with the Pickled Tomato Salsa, scallions, and cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.

Steps

1. To prepare the stuffing, in a bowl add the bread crumbs, fresh thyme, chopped up dried cherries, crushed garlic, cayenne, black pepper, salt, egg yolk, grated parmesan cheese, and a little bit of olive oil. Take a fork and give that a good mix. This stuffing isn't really and isn't really dry, it's just kinda in between. After it's all mixed together, you should be able to squeeze it together between your fingers and have it hold together. Set that aside
2. Butterfly the chicken breasts before pounding them flat. Put the chicken breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound it (but not too thin). Season with salt and pepper, be careful with the salt because we're going to warp this in prosciutto wich is salty.
3. Put half of the stuffing mixture on the chicken breast and pad it firmly. Use the plastic to roll that up tight and towards the end twist the plastic wrap on both sides to keep everything nice and together.
4. On a piece of plastic wrap, lay down 2 pieces of prosciutto. Lay them out to the same length of the wrapped chicken. Unwarp the chicken breats and place it on one end of the prosciutto and roll this up so that the prosciutto covers the chicken entirely. You want to roll it firmly without pushing the stuffing out. Towards the end twist the plastic wrap on both sides to hold it tight.
5. Lay 4 pieces of string on the cutting board, about an inch apart. Lay the stuffed chicken on top and make 4 ties. Don't make a simple tie, instead twist the string through 3-4 times and then tie to make it hold in place. Cut of the extra strings and you're ready to cook them (or you can refrigerate until ready)
6. Lay the chicken breasts in a lightly oiled pan (oven proof) and out those in a pre-heated 400F oven for about 25 min (or internal temp of 155F). Remove from the oven , remove from the pan. Put them on a plate, loosely wrapped with foil to rest and prepare the sauce
7. Add chicken stock and balsamic vinegar to the pan. Reduce by half on high heat, turn off the heat and stir in a piece of butter. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Set that aside
8. Cut the strings and slice the chicken and serve on a warm plate, spoon over a couple spoons of the sauce and serve with rice

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Combine chicken bones, onions, celery, and carrots in a large roasting pan; toss with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Roast until the bones and vegetables are a rich golden brown, about 30 to 40 minutes.
3. Transfer the bones and vegetables to a large stockpot, add 12 cups cold water, and the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 4 hours, skimming the scum that rises to the top with a ladle every 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain through a mesh strainer into a clean pot. Place back on the stove over high heat and cook until reduced by half. Use immediately or let cool to room temperature, cover, and refrigerate or freeze until ready to use.

Steps

1. Dry roast the pine nuts, pistachios and almonds or fry them in a bit of oil until they're brown. Keep on stirring them because they can get burned easily. Once golden brown, set aside.
2. If you're going to poach the chicken,  it's better to use ones with bones (they give flavor to the broth). The shortcut here, is to get roast chicken and use it's pieces and use ready made chicken broth (or use chicken stock cubes like Knor)
3. To poach the chicken, place in a large saucepan along with the quartered onion, cardamom pods, cloves, pepper corns, and bay leaves.
4. Add water (make sure the chicken is covered with water) and add sea salt (you can also add fresh thyme or rosemary to give it more flavor)
5. Put the pan on high heat until the water boils, lower the heat to medium and let it simmer for 15 min (remove the scum that floats on top).
6. After 15 min turn off the heat and cover the pan for another 10-15 min (with the heat off) then remove the chicken pieces and let them cool before you can remove the flesh from the bones (and set aside). Pour the chicken stock (where all the flavor is) through a sieve and set aside.
7. In the meantime, wash the rice and leave aside soaking in water (it makes it easier to cook)
8. In another saucepan, over a medium heat, fry the ground beef in 2-3 tbsp of oil and while browning the meat add the spices (ground cardamom, allspice, salt, cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper). 
9. When the meat has browned, drain the rice and add it to the pan and fry a little bit with the meat.Then add the chicken stock and turn up the heat. Once the liquid starts to simmer, turn down the heat to low and cover (for 30 minutes). Try not to uncover during this time (it messes up the rice). 
10. After 1/2 hour, uncover and check if the rice is cooked and the liquid has dried up. Fluff the rice with a big fork or spoon to mix the meat and rice. Add the chicken pieces and the fried nuts on top and serve.

Steps

1. To a mortar and pestle add sliced garlic, chili paste, maple syrup, soy sauce, mayonnaise, and the rice vinegar. Pound (smash the garlic first) until mixed together well and set aside
2. Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour in the marinade and give them a thorough mixing until the thighs are fully coated with the marinade. Wrap and refrigerate for a couple of hours
3. Prepare the grill, season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and place on the grill (smooth side down) and turn every 3-5 min until fully cooked
4. Take the thighs off the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes

Steps

1. Dice 1 onion and add to a pot with the chicken, 1 clove of garlic, 1 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp saffron. Let it cook for 1 hour on low heat. Once the chicken is cooked, debone and shred to pieces
2. Grate 1 onion and add to a pot. Wash 1 cup of barley and add it to the onion. Add 5 cups of water. Add 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp turmeric, 1/4 tsp black pepper and let it cook for 2 hrs (covered)
3. Dice the mushrooms and set aside. Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a pan. Saute the mushrooms for 2 min.
4. Add the sauted mushrooms, the shreded chicken and the chicken broth to the pot of barley and let it cook for 1 more hr
5. To make the white sauce, in a separate pan melt 1 tbsp butter, add 1 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tbsp flour and stir for 1 min. Then add 1 cup of milk and stir until it becomes smooth
6. Add the white sauce to the soup and let it cook for 30 min
7. Finally, add the juice of 1-2 lemons, garnish with parsley and enjoy

Steps
