Description

Market fresh produce turn these simple ingredients into a show-stopper appetizer, Roasted Turnips with Kale & Garlic Scape Chimichuri on top oven Baked Potato Chips! This recipe was created for the Black Forest Farmer’s Market.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Roasted Turnips

  • 1 lb Turnips (4 cups) Trimmed, scrubbed and diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Paprika
  • 1/4 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Kale & Garlic Scape Chimichuri

  • 1 cup Baby Kale
  • 5 Garlic Scapes
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Lime Juice
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes (Optional)

Oven Baked Potato Chips

  • 1 lb Russet Potatoes (2-3 potatoes), Scrubbed
  • 3 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt

Instructions

Roasted Turnips:

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F. Get out a sheet tray. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, toss together the turnips, olive oil, spices, salt and pepper.
  3. Spread the mixture out onto your sheet tray in an even layer.
  4. Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through roasting until the turnips are nicely golden brown and slightly crispy.

Kale and Garlic Scape Chimichuri:

  1. Into the bowl of a food processor, add all the ingredients, kale, garlic scapes, olive oil, red wine vinegar, lime juice, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.
  2. Process on 15 second intervals until the chimichuri reaches your desired consistency. (Traditionally chimichuri is not blended until smooth but left slightly chunky.)
  3. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

Oven Baked Potato Chips:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F Convect or 400°F regular. Get out a large sheet tray and set aside.
  2. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the potatoes into 1/8″ slices. Place the slices into a large bowl of warm water. This helps to remove some of the starch from the potatoes.
  3. Drain the potato slices and pat them dry with a clean dish towel or paper towel.
  4. In a large bowl toss the potato slices with the olive oil and salt.
  5. Place the potato slices onto your sheet tray in one single layer. This make take a few rounds, do not overlap or the chips will not cook evenly.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes, then using a spatula, flip the chips over and bake for another 10 minutes on the other side. Take care in the last few minutes to watch so that the chips do not burn!
  7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.

Assembly:

  1. Place one chip onto a plate, top with a tablespoon of roasted turnips, then top with a drizzle of chimichuri. Continue with remaining ingredients. Enjoy!

Description

Greek Chicken & Chickpeas is a flavorful and flexitarian dinner that will impress your guests and family!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Chicken Breasts, diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2, 15oz Cans Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 Large Onion, diced
  • 2 Lemons, zested and juiced
  • 4 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 3/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 3 tsp Oregano
  • 2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Set out two separate mixing bowls, one will be for the chicken, the other for the chickpeas. (Note: If you do not mind the meat and chickpeas mixed together then feel free to use one large bowl!)
  2. To one bowl, mix up the marinade. Add the olive oil, diced onion, garlic, lemon zest and juice, oregano, salt and pepper. Whisk together to combine.
  3. Pour half of the marinade into the other bowl. You should have half of the marinade in each bowl.
  4. Add the chickpeas to one bowl and cover then add the chicken to the other bowl and cover it. Place both bowls into the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
  5. When you are ready to cook. Heat two large cast iron pans over medium high heat. Add 2 tsp olive oil to each pan.
  6. When the pans are heated, add the chickpeas to one pan and the chicken to the other.
  7. Cook the chicken and chickpeas, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the chickpeas are crispy. The cast iron pan will help to crisp and slightly char the chicken and chickpeas. This is good flavor! (Note that the chicken should be cooked through to 165 F).
  8. Serve the chicken and chickpeas over whole wheat naan bread, tzatizki sauce, tomato and cucumber salad and top with feta and kalamata olives. Enjoy!

Braided Pesto Garlic Knots are delicious bites packed with spinach pesto, garlic and cheese. Perfect as an appetizer or side dish!

Ingredients

Units Scale

Instructions

  1. Start by making the Whole Wheat Pizza Dough and Spinach Pesto.
  2. Roll the pizza dough into a square, roughly 12×12 inches.
  3. Using a spatula, spread the pesto onto the dough, leaving about a 1/2 inch border around all sides.
  4. Evenly sprinkle the mozzarella over the pesto.
  5. Next, take the top half of the dough and fold down to meet the bottom. You are basically folding the dough in half here. (Check out the video for a play-by-play!)
  6. Then, using a knife or bench scraper, cut the dough horizontally into 6 sections. You should have 6 rectangles at this point.
  7. Now, take one of your rectangles and vertically cut two slits into the dough, keeping the top portion intact. Continue with remaining rectangles.
  8. Next it’s time to braid! Take one of your rectangles and fold the left dough portion over the middle section then repeat with the left side. Continue braiding until you reach the end of the dough. Then, pinch the bottom of the dough to seal. Now take the end you sealed and roll it up towards the other end. You will now have a braided pesto knot! Continue with the rest of the rectangles.
  9. Place the knots into a 9×9 baking dish and brush with a little olive oil.
  10. Place into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. Note if the tops get a little too brown, cover with foil for the last 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and serve with marinara sauce or extra pesto. Enjoy!
