- Steam Oven Roast Chicken and Vegetables
Steam ovens have the perfect balance of heat and humidity to roast a whole chicken with seasonal vegetables with outstanding results. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Steam Oven Roast Chicken and Vegetables Convection and Convection-Steam Steam-roasted chicken with vibrant vegetables creates a succulent and flavorful dish. Steam ovens have the perfect balance of heat and humidity to roast a whole chicken with seasonal vegetables with outstanding results. One of the best ways to achieve great flavor when roasting a whole chicken is to give it a dry rub of kosher salt and your preferred seasoning and let it sit uncovered in the refrigerator overnight. Not only does this step infuse flavor into the chicken, when the skin is slightly dehydrated it will achieve better browning and crisping. INGREDIENTS For the chicken 1 4-5 lb. whole chicken 1 tsp Kosher salt 1 tsp Old Bay or other poultry seasoning 1 small lemon quartered 3 sprigs fresh rosemary or thyme Avocado spray oil or ghee For the vegetables 6 golden potatoes 2- 3” in length scrubbed clean and cut into ½” slices 12 Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut into ½” slices 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into ½” slices 6 shiitake or cremini mushrooms, stems removed, wiped clean and cut into quarters ½ medium red onion, cut into ½” dice Olive oil ½” tsp mixed Italian seasoning Combine the prepared vegetables in a bowl and toss with just enough olive oil to coat. Sprinkle with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper and the mixed Italian seasoning. Serves 4 - 6 PREPARATION To maintain a sanitary environment when working with raw poultry, place the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet or washable cutting board and wear disposable prep gloves. Combine the kosher salt with the seasoning and set aside. Place the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet, remove any innards and pat the cavity and the exterior of the chicken dry with paper towels, discard the towels in the compost. Spread the prepared seasoning over the chicken and place the chicken in the refrigerator uncovered overnight or until ready to cook. Ideally remove the chicken one hour before you plan to roast it to bring it to room temperature. Place the chicken on a rack in a shallow pan, place the halved lemon and rosemary in the cavity and loosely tie the legs together. Heat the oven in the Convection mode to 400 F°. Spritz the chicken with some avocado spray oil or brush with ghee and place in the oven when it comes to temperature. Set the timer for 15 minutes. When the timer has elapsed, change the oven mode to the Combination Convection Steam mode or choose a moderate percentage such as 60% and set the temperature to 350 F°. Set the timer for 50 minutes and check the chicken when the timer elapses to determine doneness. The legs should swing free and the juices run clear. If the chicken is done remove it from the oven and set aside to cool for 10 - 15 minutes before carving. Combine the prepared vegetables with a light coating of olive oil, kosher salt, freshly ground pepper and the mixed Italian seasoning. Spread onto the solid oven pan and slide the pan into the oven 15 minutes before the chicken is estimated to be finished cooking. The oven temperature can be increased to 375 F° when the chicken has been removed for a crisper finish. Remove the vegetables from the oven when the chicken has been carved and is ready to serve.

- Lemon Meringue Pie
There are three elements in a lemon meringue pie: the crust, the lemon curd filling, and the fluffy meringue. To ensure each one bakes perfectly, use the same tools as a professional baker and choose the Convection Bake mode in your oven. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Lemon Meringue Pie Convection Bake Mode Lemon Meringue Pie Professional bakers use convection ovens because the circulating heated air cooks food evenly, ensuring outstanding results. Because convection cooks from the edge to the center, this recipe reduces the baking temperature by 25 degrees. There are three elements in a lemon meringue pie: the crust, the lemon curd filling, and the fluffy meringue. To ensure each one bakes perfectly, use the same tools as a professional baker and choose the Convection Bake mode in your oven. Be sure to let the eggs come to room temperature and separate them carefully. Ensuring the whites have no traces of yolk makes all the difference in achieving those perfect peaks. Using superfine or Bakers sugar is also recommended when making meringue. Recipe ingredients For the Crust 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1/8 tsp salt 4 oz cold, unsalted butter cut into small cubes 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup ice-cold water Combine the flour, salt, butter, and sugar in a food processor bowl and pulse to combine. With the motor running slowly, add the water and mix until a ball forms. Scrape the mixture onto a lightly dusted rolling mat and press into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. When ready to continue, let the pastry sit outside the refrigerator for 20 minutes to soften slightly. Roll the pastry to a 12" circle on a lightly flour-dusted pastry mat and place it in a 9" pie pan. Trim the overhang, crimp the edges, and place the prepared pan in the freezer. Meanwhile, arrange the oven racks so you can bake on the lowest rack (for gas ovens, I recommend rack position two) and the upper racks, leaving plenty of room for baking with the meringue topping. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake mode to 350 F. Line the prepared pan with parchment and pastry baking weights and bake for 20 minutes until the crust is lightly golden. Set aside to cool before removing the pastry weights. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and move on to making the filling. For the Filling 1 1/3 cups water 1 cup granulated sugar 1/3 cup cornstarch 1/4 tsp salt 1 tbsp lemon zest 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice 5 large egg yolks, beaten 2 tbsp unsalted butter Combine all the ingredients except the egg yolks and butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat and cook until the mixture thickens and bubbles. When the mixture has thickened, reduce the heat to low. Whisk the egg yolks and very slowly add a few spoons of the liquid from the pan to the eggs, then very slowly whisk this mixture into the pan. Increase the heat to medium and cook the mixture for another 4 - 5 minutes until it is very thick and large bubbles burst to the surface. Remove from the heat, whisk in the butter, and spread the filling into the prepared pie shell. For the Meringue 5 large egg whites 1/2 tsp cream of tartar 1/2 cup superfine or Bakers sugar 1/8 tsp salt In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed for a minute. Increase to high speed and whisk for approximately 4 minutes until soft peaks form. Add the sugar and salt and continue beating for another 2 minutes until the egg whites are stiff and glossy. Spread the meringue over the filling to the edge of the crust so the filling is completely covered, and swirl the meringue into a decorative pattern with the back of a spoon. Slide the pie into the oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until the meringue is lightly browned. Cool the pie on a cooling rack for at least an hour before serving, or chill it once cooled for 2 - 4 hours before serving. This pie is best served the day it is baked; however, my "extra" slices were still very good after two days in the refrigerator.

- Steam Oven Cooking Made Easy Part 3
Part 3 will cover the basics of cooking multiple dishes simultaneously. An advantage of convection-steam oven: cooking several foods at once. Steam Oven Cooking Made Easy - Part 3 How to get the most out of your steam oven? Plan to cook multiple foods at one time. If you have mastered the basics of steam oven cooking, as outlined in parts 1 and 2 of this series, then it’s time to explore other ways of using your steam oven. Part 3 will cover the basics of cooking multiple dishes simultaneously. Steaming Steaming multiple foods at one time is easy; once the oven is set to the steam mode, you can steam any grain, vegetables, pulses, fish, shellfish, and even eggs, making meal preparation much easier. For example, if you plan a summer BBQ, you can steam potatoes and eggs for potato salad, broccoli and couscous for a salad, orzo pasta and shrimp, or corn on the cob. The possibilities are endless. All you have to do is plan the staging in the oven and the timing for each item. Best of all, while the various foods are steaming, you can focus on preparing the other components for each salad and easily assemble each dish as the food is cooked. Not only can you easily prepare multiple dishes, but there will be no cooktop or saucepans to clean, and the cooking containers can be washed in the dishwasher. It is important to stage the oven before cooking! Roasting Roasting a variety of vegetables together with a quick-cooking protein is perhaps the easiest and healthiest way to prepare a meal. Again, it’s important to think through the staging of each dish in the oven, as well as the timing and the temperature. Roasting is done in the combination Convection/Steam mode, and if your oven has options for the amount of steam, choose 50-60%. If you want to sear meat or poultry first, using a drier heat will give the best results. Heat the oven in the Convection mode to 375 - 425 F and cook the meat for 12 - 15 minutes. Then reduce the oven temperature to 340 and change the mode to the Combination Convection Steam mode for the remainder of the cooking time. BACK TO LEARN PAGE RESCUED BY MY CONVECTION OVEN!

- Convection Baked Carrot Apple Muffins with Pecans and Coconut
Carrot Apple muffins with pecan and coconut are great snack. Because they are made with vegetable oil they keep well in an airtight container or can be frozen. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Convection Baked Carrot Apple Muffins with Pecans and Coconut Convection Bake or Bake Mode Freshly baked healthy carrot muffins ready to enjoy. A perfect healthy snack and very forgiving, if you don’t care for one of the ingredients add more of another. Because these muffins are made with vegetable oil they keep well in an airtight container or can be frozen. These easy to prepare muffins are a staple in my house in the fall and winter months. A perfect healthy snack and very forgiving, if you don’t care for one of the ingredients add more of another. Because they are made with vegetable oil they keep well in an airtight container or can be frozen. The recipe makes 18 muffins so if you don’t have two muffin pans, bake 12, remove those from the pan after a short cooling spell and bake the remainder of the muffins. Because these muffins have such a high moisture content I prefer to bake them in the Bake mode or the Convection Bake mode since the direct heat from the top and bottom heating elements ensures a drier crumb. Remember if you use Convection Bake reduce the recipe temperature by 25 degrees and if baking two trays at one time there is no need to switch the pans part way through baking. INGREDIENTS 2 cups all purpose flour 2 tsp baking soda 1 tbsp wheat germ (optional) 2 tsp ground cinnamon 1 cup granulated sugar ¼ tsp salt 2 cups carrots, peeled and grated (2 -3 medium carrots) ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts ½ cup golden raisins ½ cup flaked unsweetened coconut 3 large eggs 1 cup olive oil or your preferred vegetable oil 2 tsp vanilla 1 Granny Smith apple, coarsely grated PREPARATION Arrange the oven racks so there is one rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven in the Bake mode 350℉ or if baking two trays in the Convection Bake mode 325℉. Oil an 18 cup muffin tin or line with baking cups. In a large mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and whisk in the wheat germ (if using) and the sugar. Stir in the carrots, pecans, raising and coconut. In another bowl or large mixing jug combine the eggs, oil and vanilla and whisk to combine. Stir in the shredded apple and combine gently with the flour mixture. Fill each of the muffin cups ¾ full and bake for 18 - 20 minutes, until the tester comes out clean. Cool the muffins in the pan for at least 5 minutes before out onto a cooling rack. Makes 18 muffins Snack Muffins with Carrot Apple Coconut & Pecans .pdf Download PDF • 201KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- Roasted Japanese Eggplant & Grilled Pork Blade Steak
Cubed Japanese eggplant tossed with sesame oil, ginger, and garlic roasted in Convection and served with a grilled pork blade steak for a quick delicious Convection meal. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Roasted Japanese Eggplant & Grilled Pork Blade Steak Convection and Convection Broil A beautifully arranged meal of tender meat, roasted eggplant, fresh greens, chilies, and scallions on a patterned tablecloth. Cubed Japanese eggplant tossed with sesame oil, ginger, and garlic roasted in Convection and served with a grilled pork blade steak for a quick delicious Convection meal. This recipe demonstrates how to make good use of the Convection Broil mode in your oven. I began by roasting the eggplant in the Convection mode, then changed the mode to Convection Broil and added the pork blade steak. The benefit of using the Convection Broil mode is that the eggplant could continue cooking in Convection while the pork was being cooked by the powerful direct heat of the broiler. I prepared this meal in a Speed oven that has Microwave, Convection, and Broil modes but this meal can also be prepared using the Convection Broil mode in a larger Convection oven. This meal could also be prepared with boneless skinless chicken thighs, salmon, or skirt steak if you prefer. INGREDIENTS For cooking the eggplant 2 Japanese eggplant, cut into 1” chunks 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil 1 tbsp peanut oil 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger Sauce for serving the eggplant ¼ cup tamari or soy sauce 2 tbsp rice vinegar 2 tbsp Mirin cooking wine or dry Sherry 2 tsp cornstarch Garnish for serving the eggplant 4 scallions, white part only, finely chopped Finely sliced hot red chili (optional) Fresh chopped cilantro for serving, optional For the pork blade steak 1 pork blade steak, approx. 12 oz 1 tsp Chinese 5-spice powder 1tsp peanut oil PREPARATION Heat the oven in the Convection or Convection Roast mode and set the temperature to 375F (190C). Place one oven rack close to the Broil element and the other rack in the middle of the oven. Toss the cubed eggplant with the sesame and peanut oils and the garlic and ginger. Spread the eggplant onto a rimmed baking sheet and place it on the middle rack in the oven. Set the timer and cook the eggplant for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce and the garnish and season the pork blade steak. Place the blade steak on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. When the timer has elapsed change the oven mode to Convection Broil 475F (246C) and slide the pork into the oven. Cook the pork for 5 - 6 minutes on the first side then turn it and cook for another 4 - 5 minutes. Set the pork aside to rest for a few minutes before slicing, drizzle the eggplant with the sauce and add the garnish before serving.

- Convection For Crisp Roast Salmon
Convection Broil is the ideal cooking mode for crisp crusted juicy salmon bursting with flavor. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Convection For Crisp Roast Salmon Convection Broil Grilled salmon with pasta, fresh vegetables, basil garnish, and savory sauce. Meaty cuts of salmon such as King or Atlantic salmon are delicious when cooked with high heat because the higher fat content adds fabulous flavor while the circulating convection heat ensures the fish doesn’t dry out. Broiling or grilling is a delicate dance, the high heat bursts open the flavor of the food but too much heat and the food can easily be destroyed. A meaty piece of salmon weighing ¾ lb will cook in approximately 10 minutes in the Convection Broil mode at 450℉. Remember these important steps for successful oven broiling. Only a short preheat time is required when using the Broil modes because the heating cycle is accelerated for quick cooking. Allow approximately 5 - 8 minutes to preheat the broiler but be sure to arrange the oven racks prior to heating the oven so you don’t have to handle a hot rack. Remember the oven door must remain closed during broiling and when you remove the fish from the oven, slide it off the hot pan so it doesn’t continue cooking. To keep the kitchen air clean when broiling be sure to turn on the cooktop ventilation, this will also minimize residual odors from lingering. INGREDIENTS 2 pieces center cut Atlantic or King Salmon approx. ¾ lb. each ¼ cup Teriyaki glaze and a sprinkling of sesame seeds or your preferred glaze PREPARATION Heat the oven in the Convection Broil mode to 450°F. Place the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet or an oven broil pan and brush with your preferred glaze. It’s best not to add too much glaze especially when using a sauce that has sugar to avoid burning. Place the pan in the oven making sure the top of the fish is at least 3 - 4 inches away from the top heating element. Cook for 10- 12 minutes, test the fish for doneness and if done remove from the pan and set aside to rest for a few minutes before serving.

- Stuffed Pumpkins with Wild Rice, Chestnuts, and Dried Cherries
The first step is to scoop the seeds out of the pumpkins and bake them until they soften. The wild rice blend is cooked at the same time then combined with the Chestnuts and Dried Cherries. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Stuffed Pumpkins with Wild Rice, Chestnuts, and Dried Cherries Convection Bake Mode Colorful stuffed pumpkins filled with a savory mixture of rice, cranberries, and herbs. Make-ahead side dishes are a great addition to your holiday menu and since all the work is done in advance, several dishes can be heated through at one time in your Convection oven. These mini pumpkins are easy to work with and make a wonderful festive presentation. Even though winter squash is considered to be hard squash, the skin is actually quite thin, still, you will find cutting them easier if your knife is nice and sharp. INGREDIENTS 6 assorted mini pumpkins (easily found at a Farmer's market) 3 fresh sage leaves, minced or ¼ tsp dried sage 1 cup wild rice blend 1 medium onion, finely chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced ½ cup cooked chestnuts, chopped ½ cup dried cherries ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley leaves ½ cup chicken or vegetable stock PREPARATION In this recipe, the first step is to scoop the seeds out of the pumpkins and bake them for about 35 - 40 minutes until they soften. The wild rice blend is cooked at the same time then combined with the remaining stuffing ingredients. Once the pumpkins have been stuffed they only require heating prior to serving. For the pumpkins Heat the oven in the Convection Bake Mode to 350F. Shave a thin slice off the bottom of each pumpkin so they will sit upright on a baking sheet. Cut the top of each pumpkin off with a sharp knife, scoop out the seeds and discard Drizzle a little olive oil in each pumpkin and sprinkle with the sage. Place the pumpkins on a baking pan and bake for 35 - 40 minutes until they have softened. Remove the oven and set aside to cool. Meanwhile, rinse the rice and cook following the package directions. Heat a medium-sized skillet over moderate heat, add a little olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter and saute the onion for several minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for a few minutes then stir in the chestnuts, cherries, cooked rice, and chopped parsley. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Stir in the vegetable stock to keep the mixture moist during the reheating and stuff each pumpkin with a generous amount of the stuffing. Cool and cover before refrigerating or reheat for 15 - 20 minutes, in the Convection Bake mode at 350F. Serves 6 Stuffed Butternut Squash .pdf Download PDF • 352KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- Broiled Cod with Miso Soy Glaze
As you become comfortable with your oven cooking modes a Broiled Cod with Miso Soy Glaze is easy to prepare. Moisture and flavor are king in this recipe! YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Broiled Cod with Miso Soy Glaze Traditional Broil Mode Grilled fish fillets with savory sauce, garnished with cilantro, served with vibrant vegetable slaw, create a colorful and appetizing dish. As you become comfortable with the various tools your appliances feature you can put them to work for you to make meal preparation much easier. I like to see myself as the conductor effortlessly orchestrating the cooking by making good use of the tools at hand. All it takes is a little planning. For example with this meal I am using the Broil mode in the Convection oven; if you use a steam oven, use the combi steam mode (convection and steam). Both ovens heat quickly when using these modes and the cooking time is approximately the same. You could also begin by steaming some rice in the Combi Steam oven and even add in additional vegetables. Considering that the fish and vegetables cook quickly, the sauce takes about 25 minutes to reduce so begin by making the sauce and reheat before serving. INGREDIENTS Sauce ½ cup mirin ¼ cup dry sake 1 tbsp slivered fresh ginger 2 tbsp water 2 tbsp yellow miso paste 2 tbsp sugar Wild Cod 1 ½ - 2lbs wild cod fillets 1 tsp sesame oil 1 tsp tamari or soy sauce Garnish Steamed Napa Cabbage ½ head Napa cabbage, core removed, cut into thin strips 1 tsp slivered ginger 2 tbsp tamari or soy sauce 1 tsp sesame oil Garnish 3 green onions, trimmed and thinly sliced on the diagonal 2 tbsps. yellow or red pepper, thinly sliced 1 tbsp freshly chopped cilantro leaves Combine and sprinkle over the cabbage before serving. PREPARATION Combine the mirin, sake and ginger in a small heavy saucepan and cook at a gentle simmer over medium low heat for 5 minutes. Combine the water, miso and sugar, stir into the sauce and continue cooking over low heat for about 25 minutes until reduced to about ⅔ of a cup. Keep the sauce warm or reheat if necessary and spread over the broiled fish before serving. Wild Cod Preparation Arrange the oven racks so that one rack is close to the top heating element. Heat the oven in the Broil mode 450 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, shiny side down and place the fish on the baking sheet. Combine the sesame oil and tamari or soy sauce and spread evenly over the fish. Cook the fish for approximately 5 minutes until it begins to flake, remove from the oven and top with the prepared miso sauce. Steamed Napa Cabbage Heat the Combi Steam Oven in the Steam mode 212 degrees. Combine all the ingredients in the large solid pan and steam for 6 - 7 minutes until the cabbage has softened.

- Vegetarian Tortilla Casserole with Zucchini, Corn, and Black Beans
Begin by roasting both the zucchini, corn in the convection mode for 15 minutes at 425°F. Then you will layer the roasted vegies with the tortillas, salsa and cheese. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Vegetarian Tortilla Casserole with Zucchini, Corn, and Black Beans Convection Roast or Convection Bake Mode A vibrant tortilla casserole with fresh salad, avocado slices, and seasoned chicken on a patterned table setting. To prepare this meal you will begin by roasting both the vegetables and chicken in the convection mode on separate trays for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, remove the vegetables, lower the oven temperature, and set the timer for 15 minutes. Layer the vegetables into the casserole with the tortillas, beans, salsa, and cheese, and pop it back in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Take the chicken out after 15 minutes and set it aside to cool while the casserole continues to heat through. This recipe uses mild salsa but it is easy to tweak it to your preferred taste and spice it up a bit. The important thing is to develop a comfort level when making oven meals using Convection. INGREDIENTS 2 medium zucchini, cubed 1 red pepper, cubed 2 cups corn kernels ½ red onion cut into ½” dice 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 1 tbsp ground cumin ½ tsp dried oregano ½ tsp chili powder (optional) 2 tbsp vegetable or olive oil 1 jar salsa 1 can black beans, drained 3 cups Mexican blend grated cheese 8 corn tortillas PREPARATION Heat the oven in the Convection Roast or Convection Bake mode at 425 degrees. Combine the zucchini, pepper, corn kernels, onion, garlic, and seasonings in a bowl and add the oil. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and spread onto a large rimmed baking pan. Place the pan on rack position 1 or 2 close to the bottom heating element and cook for 15 minutes until the vegetables begin to caramelize around the edges. If baking some chicken at the same time place the seasoned chicken on a rimmed baking sheet on rack position 4 or 5 closer to the top heating element. Remove the vegetables from the oven after 15 minutes, and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. If baking some chicken at the same time, set the timer for 15 minutes to finish cooking the chicken. Add the beans and salsa to the baking pan with the vegetables and fold to distribute evenly. Now you are ready to assemble the casserole. Lightly oil the bottom of a casserole dish with several corn tortillas, cutting them as needed to cover the surface. Add half of the vegetable mixture to the pan and top with half of the cheese. Cover this layer with more tortillas, add the remaining vegetables, and top with the remaining cheese. Cover the dish loosely with foil, crimp the edges to seal, and place in the oven. Heat the casserole for another 15 minutes until the cheese has melted and is bubbling. Once the chicken has cooked for 30 minutes remove the tray from the oven and let the chicken cool slightly, that way you can slice it off the bone or keep it covered with some foil to keep warm to serve with the hot casserole.

- How to Roast Lamb Shoulder Roast in Convection
It’s good to know if you are cooking something like a lamb shoulder roast that will be in the oven for quite some time that you can cook a dessert at the same time. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 How to Roast Lamb Shoulder Roast in Convection Convection (True Convection) Roasted lamb slices with broccolini, chickpeas, wilted greens, and creamy feta cheese on a rustic plate. It’s good to know if you are cooking something like a lamb shoulder roast that will be in the oven for quite some time that you can cook a dessert at the same time. One of the greatest benefits of Convection cooking is the ability to cook an entire meal at one time with no transference of flavor. I am not suggesting you have to cook a cake at the same time but it’s good to know if you are cooking something like a lamb shoulder roast that will be in the oven for quite some time that you can cook a dessert at the same time. INGREDIENTS 1 - 2lb lamb shoulder roast 1 - tablespoon olive oil 1 - teaspoon herb’s de Provence OR 1 - tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary 4 - cloves garlic, minced Kosher salt & pepper Roasted Greens Chickpeas and Feta Cheese 1 - bunch Dino or red kale, stems removed, leaves cut into 2” pieces 3 - cloves garlic, minced 1 - tablespoon olive oil 1 - bunch broccolini, stems trimmed 1 - 14oz can chickpeas drained and slightly dried out Dash of dried red chili (optional) 4 - oz Feta cheese, sliced PREPARATION My cooking plan is to cook the lamb shoulder roast at 300 degrees Convection for about 1 ½ hours. The cake also cooks at 300 degrees and takes approximately 50 minutes to bake so I will cook that during the first hour the roast is in the oven. Once it’s out of the oven I will increase the temperature to 375 to make sure the lamb renders any fat and gets nice and crisp. The vegetables will only take about 12 - 15 minutes to cook so they go in at the very end. Combine the oil and seasonings and rub into the lamb, a few hours or even overnight in advance of cooking and let the lamb sit outside of the refrigerator for at least an hour before cooking. Heat the oven to 300 degrees, Convection, place the roast on a rack in a shallow pan and roast for 1 hour 15 mins. Increase the heat to 375 and cook for 15 minutes, remove from the oven and check the internal temperature, it should be 145 degrees, and set aside to rest before carving. Roasted Greens Chickpeas and Feta Cheese Combine the kale & minced garlic with the 2 teaspoons of olive oil and massage the oil into the leaves, add the chickpeas and toss well then fold in the broccolini and chili if using. Sprinkle with kosher salt and spread onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes then add the Feta cheese slices to the pan and cook for another few minutes until the cheese begins to melt.
