• Cook the Italian sausage and red pepper flakes in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until crumbly, browned, and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Cook the bacon in the same Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain, leaving a few tablespoons of drippings with the bacon in the bottom of the Dutch oven. Stir in the onions and garlic; cook until onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Pour the chicken broth into the Dutch oven with the bacon and onion mixture; bring to a boil over high heat. Add the potatoes, and boil until fork tender, about 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the heavy cream and the cooked sausage; heat through. Mix the spinach into the soup just before serving.

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir sea scallops, shrimp, and calamari rings in the hot oil until scallops and calamari are opaque and shrimp are pink, about 5 minutes.
• Bring a separate pot of water to a boil and add mussels and littleneck clams to the boiling water; cook until shells have opened, about 3 minutes. Remove shellfish and rinse with hot water.
• Pour crushed tomatoes, water, 2 cans chopped clams, 1/4 cup olive oil, onion, red pepper flakes, garlic, oregano, parsley, and salt into a large pot and bring to a boil. Stir cooked scallops, shrimp, calamari, mussels in shells, and littleneck clams in shells into tomato mixture. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour.
• About 10 minutes before serving, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes; drain and rinse pasta in hot water to prevent sticking. Serve seafood and sauce over pasta.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring the broth to a simmer over medium heat.
• Add the pasta and return the broth to a simmer.
• Simmer until the pasta is tender (10 minutes).
• Whisk in the egg and let cook for 1 minute.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with cheese and parsley.

Steps:

• In a 5 quart Dutch oven, combine the first eight ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove chicken to a platter to cool and strain the broth, discarding the vegetables and bay leaves.
• Remove skin and bones from chicken and discard, cutting chicken into bite-size pieces - set aside.
• Return broth to Dutch oven and add tomatoes, onions, parsley, ketchup, salt, rosemary, basil, garlic and pepper and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes, then add beans, cheese and chicken and allow to heat through.

Steps:

• In a 5 quart soup pot or Dutch oven, bring tomato juice, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar and spices to a simmer on medium heat.
• Next add drained vegetables and chicken and continue to simmer for 20 minutes.
• Note - Sugar can be substituted with Splenda or just leave out. I use it because it keeps the tomatoes and their juices from being so bitter.
• Note 2 - Cannellini beans are just white kidney beans and chick peas are just garbonzo beans.

Steps:

• preheat oven 450 degrees F.
• Lay chicken on flat surface season with salt and pepper.
• place slices of ham over breasts until all is used.
• in bowl- mix parsley, bread crumbs, cheeses, eggs, basil and rosemary.
• layer some filling on each chicken breast on the smaller end roll up the chicken tightly and secure with butchers twine or toothpicks.
• place in foil pouches and bake 15-20 minutes in shallow pan.
• make sauce while roasting chicken in large pot saute garlic in olive oil for about 2 minutes.
• add tomatoes, basil and salt let cook for about 45 minutes at a slow boil.
• when chicken comes out quickly brown them in a little olive oil, top with sauce and serve over pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place each chicken breast half between two sheets of waxed paper.
• Using a meat mallet or the dull side of a cleaver blade, press down and then push out from the center of each breast half, flattening it out evenly. Do not overpound or the breasts will break apart.
• To make the stuffing: soak the bread in the stock until it is softened, two to three minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a skillet melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the green onions and sautee, until softened but not browned, about three minutes. Place the green onions in a mixing bowl.
• Squeeze the excess stock from the bread; discard the stock.
• Add the bread to the bowl, along with the sage, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and mix well. Taste for seasoning.
• Place a slice of ham on each of the flattened chicken breast halves.
• Divide the bread stuffing between the two breasts, spreading it over the ham.
• Roll up each breast from a narrow end; the opposite end should remain uncovered and slightly overlap the roll.
• Tuck in any stuffing that may have leaked out of the ends; the ham slice will prevent stuffing from leaking out of the center of the chicken roll.
• Using cotton kitchen string, tie the rolls closed in the same fashion that a roast is laced. Toothpicks can be used to fasten the ends securely.
• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Meanwhile, dredge the chicken rolls in the flour and set aside.
• When the skillet is hot enough to make the chicken rolls sizzle, add them.
• Brown on all sides for no longer than five minutes. Prolonged sauteing will toughen the delicate breast meat. To turn the rolls, gently slide a spatula under them to prevent rupturing.
• Transfer the sauteed breast rolls to a casserole just large enough to accommodate them, but with enough room to keep them from touching.
• Set the skillet aside for later deglazing.
• Pour the stock over the breasts, cover tightly, and place in the preheated oven.
• Bake until the breasts are just cooked through but still juicy, 20 to 25 minutes (it took me 40 minutes for the chicken to be fully cooked).
• Remove from the oven, and transfer the rolls to a cutting board, reserving the liquid in the casserole.
• Remove the string and toothpicks and let stand for five to ten minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the pan drippings that remain in the skillet in which the breasts were sauteed.
• Add 1/2 cup of the stock from the casserole and bring to a simmer, using a wooden spoon to dislodge any bits stuck to the pan bottom.
• Add the wine and continue to simmer to evaporate the alcohol.
• Taste for salt.
• Cut each of the stuffed breasts crosswise into five or six slices and arrange on a serving platter. Pour the hot pan juices over them.
