Oaxaca Fudge Bars With Cashew Crumb Topping Recipes

Steps:

• For the topping: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Toss the cashews and coconut with the oil, curry powder and salt in the baking pan. Bake, stirring once or twice, until the coconut is golden brown, about 5 minutes (be careful, it can burn quickly towards the end). Stir in the lime zest and cool completely. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
• For the fish: Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Drizzle the parchment with olive oil and place the fish on top. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper, turning the fillets to coat them with the oil. Sprinkle the top of the fish with the coriander and curry powder, then roast until the cod is just cooked through and flakes apart easily, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Serve the fish with the cashew coconut topping and lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pulse the bread in a food processor to get slightly coarse bread crumbs.
• Coat a casserole dish just large enough to hold the fillets with 1 tablespoon butter. Place the fillets in the dish and season with salt, pepper, lemon zest and juice, and thyme leaves.
• Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet with the smashed garlic. As soon as the butter starts to bubble, turn off the heat and let the garlic infuse the warm butter.
• Remove the garlic chunks from the butter. Add the bread crumbs and lightly toss until all the butter has been absorbed. Turn the heat off, stir in the parsley and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Spread a layer of bread crumb mixture over the top of each fillet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until bread crumbs are golden brown and fish is cooked through.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the juice and zest of 1 lemon. Place the scrod fillets in the bowl and allow the fish to marinate for approximately 20 minutes. In a medium sized saute pan, sear the scrod fillets over medium heat until both sides are evenly brown. Remove the fillets from the pan and set aside.
• Serve with Romano Mashed Potatoes, Fresh Vegetables with Crispy Bread Crumbs, and Sauteed Asparagus.
• In a large pot, combine the potatoes and just enough water to cover them. Boil the potatoes over medium-high heat until the water comes to a rolling boil. Continue boiling the potatoes until they are fork tender. Drain the water from the pot and add milk to desired creaminess, cheese, parsley and salt and pepper to the potatoes. Mash the ingredients all together with a hand masher until they are all thoroughly combined. Serve with the fish and vegetables.
• In a medium sized saute pan, sear the asparagus spears with olive oil and lemon juice. Cook the asparagus until it is tender. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
• In a medium-sized pan, cook the bacon strips until they are crispy. Remove the slices from the pan and crumble the pieces. Reserve the pan of bacon grease and add in the diced red pepper, green pepper, onion, parsley, and garlic. Saute the vegetables in the bacon grease with hot pepper sauce until they are tender. Add the bread crumbs to the pan and thoroughly combine all of the ingredients.

Steps:

• For the crust: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square metal baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk the flour, oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Stir in melted butter until combined. Set 1 1/4 cups oatmeal mixture aside. Press remaining oatmeal mixture firmly into prepared pan. Bake until light golden brown, about 8 minutes. Cool completely. Stir cashews into the reserved oatmeal mixture.
• For the filling: Whisk the flour, brown sugar, instant espresso powder, cinnamon, chili powder and salt in a medium bowl. Put the chocolate and butter in large microwavable bowl; microwave on medium power until chocolate is softened, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Stir until mixture is melted and smooth. Whisk in eggs, then stir in flour mixture. Pour filling over cooled crust and sprinkle with reserved oatmeal mixture.
• Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out with few crumbs attached, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool to room temperature, at least 1 hour. Remove using foil overhang and cut into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9 x 13 inch pan. In a large bowl, combine mix together the brown sugar, 3/4 cup margarine, eggs and 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Stir in baking mix and oats. Set aside.
• To Make Filling: Heat chocolate chips, condensed milk, 2 tablespoons margarine or butter and salt in saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in pecans and 2 tablespoons vanilla.
• Press about two-thirds of the oatmeal mixture into the bottom of the pan. Spread evenly. Pour chocolate mixture evenly over oatmeal layer. Drop remaining one-third of oatmeal mixture by tablespoons on top of the chocolate mixture. Bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into bars.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
