Steps:

• Season chicken liberally with salt and pepper.
• Broil 6-8 inches from heat for 5-7 minutes per side, until skin is browned.
• Remove from broiler and reduce oven to 350.
• In a small bowl, blend butter, mustard, vinegar, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Place chicken, skin side up in a large baking dish.
• Brush with seasoned butter. Sprinkle bread crumbs over chicken.
• Bake 15-20 minutes, until cating is browned and chicken is tender.

Steps:

• Place washed chicken breasts on foil on roasting pan.
• Broil at 400 F for 10 minutes, turning once.
• During the broil, mix the butter, mustard, paprika, garlic and vinegar into a paste.
• Turn the chicken back to skin side up and slather with the butter paste.
• If desired coat with bread crumbs, I prefer the almonds.
• Turn down oven to 325 degrees F.
• Cook until juices run clear, if crust begins to brown too much, cover lightly with foil tent.
• Let rest briefly and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease four 10-ounce ramekins with the butter and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Season the water generously with salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk and cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat until small bubbles appear around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly add the American cheese, stirring until melted. Remove from the heat.
• Drain the potatoes well and return to the pot. Place over low heat, stirring constantly, until the excess water evaporates, about 1 minute. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving a few clumps of potato. Slowly pour in the milk and cheese mixture and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, mix to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Divide the potatoes evenly between the prepared ramekins. Top each with 1 tablespoon of the remaining Parmesan. Bake until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling, about 15 minutes. Garnish with the chives and serve.

Steps:

• Boil the Artichokes: Bring the water, bay leaves, salt, and peppercorns to a boil in a large pot.
• With a small, sharp knife, trim the tough outer skin from the artichoke stems and remove the bottom row of leaves. Using long handled tongs, carefully add the artichokes and lemons to the pot and return to a boil. Place 2 small heavy plates on top of the artichokes to keep them submerged, lower the heat, and cook at a low boil until the artichokes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain in a colander and let the artichokes sit until cool enough to handle.
• Pull off the large outer leaves from the artichokes, and discard or reserve for another use. Remove and discard the spiky inner leaves. Scrape the hairy choke from each heart and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Set aside to use in sauce.
• Make the Chicken and Sauce: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
• Season each chicken breast half with 1/2 teaspoon of the Essence and set aside.
• Combine 1/2 cup of the flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Essence in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs with the remaining tablespoon Essence. Put the egg wash in a third bowl.
• Dredge the chicken first in the flour, shaking to remove any excess, then in the egg wash, letting any excess drip off, and then in the bread crumbs.
• Heat the oil and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in 2 batches and cook until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and roast until cooked through, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large clean skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the remaining butter over medium-high heat. Add the yellow onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms and cook until soft and they give off their liquid, about 4 minutes. Add the salt and pepper and stir. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons flour, stir to incorporate, and cook until the mixture is thick, about 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until evaporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, stir well to incorporate, and simmer until the mixture is thickened, about 2 minutes. Add the cream, bring to a simmer, and cook until the mixture is thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced artichoke hearts and lemon juice and stir to incorporate. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining tablespoon butter, the green onions, and parsley. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.
• To serve, place 1 chicken breast in the center of each of four large plates and top each with an equal portion of the sauce. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat a heavy grill pan or griddle pan over high heat. Wipe hot grill or griddle with extra-virgin olive oil. Cook steaks 6 minutes on each side for medium doneness, 8 minutes for medium well. Season steaks with steak seasoning or salt and pepper and remove to a warm platter to allow the meat to rest.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, 10 to 12 minutes, until onions are soft and sweet. Add balsamic vinegar to the pan and turn onions in vinegar until vinegar cooks away and glazes onions a deep brown color, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add oil, garlic and onions and saute 5 minutes until onion bits are tender. Add sherry to the pan and combine with onions. Stir in tomato sauce and Worcestershire and season with black pepper.
• To serve, top steaks with onions and drizzle a little steak sauce down over the top, reserving half of the sauce to pass at table.

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette, drain and roughly chop the green peppercorns. Place them in a steel mixing bowl with the vinegar. Whisk in the olive oil, and then the honey. Place the mixture in a small sauce pot with the tarragon and warm over medium heat. Do not boil. Cook for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
• For the steaks, season heavily with salt and fresh cracked pepper. Warm 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a heavy bottom pan. Pan sear the steak on each side for about 4 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons whole butter, 1 bay leaf and chopped shallots to the pan and baste the steaks with the browning butter. Remove the pan once the steaks are at the desired temperature.
• For the vegetables, peel and then cut (if necessary) the vegetables to similar sizes. In a heavy bottomed skillet gently brown the vegetables until golden brown and tender. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve place the steak on a large dinner plate. Add some of the vegetables, and finally, spoon some of the vinaigrette over the beef and vegetables. Serve immediately.
