Here you go!! Stop by for some chicken and use your left-over stuffing!

Stuffing-Topped Chicken

Here’s a new use for leftover stuffing. We use chicken thighs because we love the rich flavor of dark meat, but boneless, skinless breast works too.

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 35 minutes

Cook time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped shallot

1/2 teaspoon salt-free poultry seasoning

1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided

1-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

2-1/2 cups quartered mushrooms (6 ounces)

1/3 cup dry white wine or dry sherry

Preparation

1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.

2. Toss chicken with 2 tablespoons flour, pepper and salt in a large bowl. Whisk broth with 2 tablespoons flour in a small bowl and set aside.

3. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan and heat over medium heat. Add chicken (shaking off any excess flour) and mushrooms; cook, stirring, until chicken is cooked through, about 8 minutes.

4. Increase heat to medium-high; add wine (or sherry) and cook, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, until almost evaporated, about 2 minutes. Stir in reserved broth-flour mixture and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes more. Spoon leftover stuffing over chicken mixture. Transfer pan to oven and broil until stuffing begins to crisp, about 4 minutes.

Enjoy!

Can we say Holiday Dinner!! Crown Roast Pork!!

Ingredients - Crown Roast of Pork Recipe
* 3 tablespoons butter
* 3/4 cup chopped onion
* 1/4 cup chopped celery
* 1/2 cup peeled, cored and chopped tart apple
* 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
* 1 pound ground pork
* 1/2 pound ground seasoned pork sausage
* 1/2 cup chopped parsley
* 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
* 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
* 1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
* 9 pounds crown pork roast
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. To Make Stuffing: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides add onion and saute, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Stir in celery and apples; saute (without browning) about 5 minutes longer. Scrape skillet contents into a large mixing bowl. Add bread crumbs, ground pork, sausage meat, parsley, sage, salt and pepper. Mix together gently but thoroughly. (Note: Do not taste the uncooked stuffing, for it contains raw pork; instead, fry a small ball of the stuffing in the skillet, then taste and season with more salt and pepper as necessary).
3. Fill the center of the crown with the stuffing, mounding it slightly. Cover it with a round of aluminum foil and wrap the ends of the chop bones in strips of foil to prevent them from charring and snapping off.
4. Place the crown on a rack in a shallow roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably, and roast in the center of the oven, undisturbed, for about 3 hours or until internal temperature of meat is 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). (Note: 30 minutes before pork is done, remove the foil from the top of the stuffing to allow the top to brown.)
5. Carefully transfer the crown to a large, heated, circular platter, strip the foil from the ends of the chops and replace it with paper frills. Let the crown rest for about 10 minutes before carving and serving. To Carve Pork: Insert a large fork in the side of the crown to steady it and, with a large, sharp knife, cut down through each rib to detach the chops. Two chops per person is a customary portion accompanied by a generous serving of the stuffing.

Preparation

For brine:
Combine 1 quart water and all remaining ingredients in medium saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar and salt dissolve. Pour brine into wide pot or container large enough to hold pork (3- to 4-gallon capacity). Add remaining 5 quarts cold water; stir to blend. Let stand until brine is cool to touch, about 1 hour.

For pork:
Place pork on work surface. Trim off all but 1/4-inch layer of fat from roast. Turn roast over so that rib bones point up. Using boning knife and starting where meat meets rib bones, gradually cut loin away from rack of bones, leaving 2 inches of meat attached to bones (do not cut meat off bones completely). Tie meat back onto bones with kitchen string at 2-inch intervals. Place roast in brine, submerging pork completely and weighing down with heavy pot if necessary. Cover and refrigerate 5 days.

Remove pork from brine; discard brine. Rinse pork under cold running water for 5 minutes to reduce saltiness; pat dry with paper towels. Place pork on rack set over sheet of foil; let stand at room temperature 2 hours.

Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Place pork on rack in large roasting pan. Mix thyme and crushed peppercorns in small bowl; sprinkle mixture over pork. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of pork registers 140°F, about 1 hour. Remove from oven. Let roast rest 30 minutes (internal temperature of roast will increase 5 to 10 degrees).

Remove kitchen string from roast. Cut meat into slices and serve.
