Sunnys Easy Cranberry And Goat Cheese Crostini Recipes

Steps:

• Spread the goat cheese on the crostini, then top with the cranberry sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Arrange the baguette slices on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until slightly dried out, about 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the chevre, chives, parsley, lemon zest, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl until well combined. Stir in the lemon juice to loosen the mixture so it will be easier to pipe. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag and cut off the tip of one corner with scissors.
• Pipe the goat cheese mixture onto the crostini. Return the crostini to the oven and bake until warm, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the honey and balsamic in a small bowl.
• Place 2 raspberries on top of each crostini and transfer to a serving platter. Spoon a little of the balsamic mixture on each crostini and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine the cranberry juice, agave and mint in a medium saucepan over medium heat just until it comes to a boil. Whisk to combine, then cover and steep until the cranberry juice tastes like mint, 3 to 5 minutes. If not sweet enough for your liking, add a bit more syrup. Strain out the mint and pour the liquid into a pitcher.
• Stir the rum and lime juice into the pitcher and refrigerate until cold.
• To serve, add 3 to 4 mint leaves, a few cranberries and ice to lowball or wine glasses. Pour in the chilled drink, then top off with a splash of sparkling water or ginger ale. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make and freeze the stuffing: Mash together the goat cheese, shredded cheese, cranberries, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl with a fork. (You can use your hands to mix it really well.) Taste a 'lil bit and add a pinch of salt if needed. Divide the cheese mixture into four sections and shape into torpedo-like logs a bit shorter than the length of the chicken breasts. Wrap each in plastic wrap. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Prepare the chicken: Use a paring knife to cut a pocket into the short, fat end of a chicken breast, that will run through much of the length of the breast, without cutting all the way through. It may take a few strokes with the knife. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Remove the stuffing from the freezer and insert one log in each pocket. If necessary, trim the logs to fit into the pockets. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
• Season and grill the chicken: Preheat the grill for direct and indirect grilling at 350 degrees F and oil the grates.
• Brush olive oil on the chicken and sprinkle on all sides with salt and pepper. Place the chicken over the direct heat of the grill and cook until a peek beneath reveals grill marks, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip and place over the indirect heat of the grill to finish. Remove when a check with a thermometer shows the chicken to be at around 155 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the chicken from the grill and tent with aluminum foil for 5 to 10 minutes. The temperature of the chicken should increase to 165 degrees F.
• Make the glaze: Combine the chicken stock, cranberries, honey, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the toothpicks from the chicken, transfer to plates, and serve each with a spoon of glaze over the top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a deep 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
• Make the sauce. In a large bowl, mix the ingredients in order, combining completely between additions. Start by adding the flour, paprika, ground mustard, garlic, scallions, hot sauce, cream cheese, a pinch of salt and more grinds of black pepper than normal. Mix this until combined completely. In a liquid measure, mix the heavy cream and pasta water together and add slowly to the bowl while whisking. Add the Cheddar, Gouda, mozzarella and Pecorino Romano cheeses.
• Bake. Add the pasta to the bowl of liquid and stir until the liquid seeps into the elbows and everything is distributed evenly. Pour into the prepared dish. Level with the back of your spoon. Toss together the Cheddar and mozzarella in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Use 2 tablespoons of the oil to brush both sides of the bread slices. Arrange on a baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, flipping halfway through, about 7 minutes. While the toasts are hot, rub both sides with the whole garlic clove and return the bread to the baking sheet.
• Toast the pine nuts in a large skillet over medium heat, swirling, until lightly golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive, minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet and cook, over medium heat and stirring frequently, until the garlic is soft, about 1 minute. Add the spinach, in batches, sprinkling with salt after each new addition, until wilted and tender. Transfer to the bowl with the pine nuts, add the lemon zest and toss well. Drain the mixture in a colander and then roughly chop it.
• Divide the spinach mixture among the toasts and top each with some crumbled goat cheese. Bake just until cheese starts to melt, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with more red pepper flakes if using and serve warm.
