Fricos Rosemary Lemon Bean Puree Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the parmesan, basil and lemon zest in a bowl.
• Transfer a heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture to a silicone- or parchment-lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. (A silicone baking mat is highly recommended for this recipe.) Repeat with the remaining cheese mixture, spacing the spoonfuls about 1/2 inch apart. Bake 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Let cool, then use a flat spatula to remove.

Steps:

• Put the beans in the container of a food processor with 1 clove of garlic and a healthy pinch of salt. Turn the machine on, and add the 1/4 cup olive oil in a steady stream through the feed tube; process until the mixture is smooth. Taste, and add more garlic if you like; then, puree the mixture again.
• Place the mixture in a bowl, and use a wooden spoon to beat in the rosemary, lemon zest and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Taste, and add more salt and pepper as needed. Use immediately, or refrigerate for as long as 3 days.

Steps:

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450°. In a medium bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 of teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
• Put the chicken pieces in a large roasting pan and toss with 1 tablespoon of oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Arrange the chicken pieces about 1 inch apart, skin-side up, and roast for 25 minutes.
• Add the Brussels sprouts and continue cooking until the chicken and sprouts are done, about 12 minutes longer. Transfer them to plate and leave to rest in a warm spot for about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the garlic, and the rosemary over low heat, stirring, for 3 minutes.
• Raise the heat to moderate and add the beans, 1/4 cup of the water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
• Cook, mashing the beans to a coarse puree, until hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley.
• Pour off the fat from the roasting pan. Set the pan over moderate heat and add the remaining 1/4 cup water.
• Bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan to dislodge any brown bits. Boil until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 4 minutes.
• Add any accumulated juices from the chicken and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Spoon the white-bean puree onto plates and top with the chicken, the Brussels sprouts, and then the pan juices.
