BONE BROTH-BRAISED TURMERIC CHICKEN WITH VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with the coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat a braiser or large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat until melted and shimmering. Add the chicken to the pan, skin-side down. Sear until the skin is deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove to a plate. Stir the carrots into the pan and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shallot, garlic, ginger and turmeric and cook until fragrant, about 30 more seconds. Add the cauliflower and raisins and stir together. Pour in about 1/2 cup bone broth and scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Pour in the remaining broth and the honey. Nestle the chicken back into the pan skin-side up. Bring to a boil, then place in the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the cauliflower is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately.

CREAMED FARMSTAND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• For the veggies: Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Carefully place the squash and tomatoes in the skillet. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook without stirring until squash is golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side, and tomato skins begin to blister and crack. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside. Add the greens and vegetable stock to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens have wilted and the liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add the cream and cheese. Stir until the cheese melts and the cream thickens, about 3 minutes. Stir in the squash and tomatoes and cook for 1 minute more to warm through. Remove from heat.
• For the topping: Place a small nonstick pan over medium high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Sprinkle the crackers into the oil in an even layer. Cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the onions and parsley. Sprinkle over the creamed veggies when ready to serve.

FETTUCCINE ALFREDO WITH VEGGIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente according to the package directions, then reserve 2 cups of the pasta water and drain.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, scatter in the mushrooms. Cook, without stirring, until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir and continue to cook until well browned, about 2 minutes more. Add the Brussels sprouts and scallions. Season with salt and the red pepper flakes. Cook and toss until the leaves are wilted but still bright green, about 3 minutes.
• Add another 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Make a space in the middle and add the tomato paste and sliced garlic. Cook and stir until sizzling, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup of the pasta water and bring to a rapid simmer. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the oat milk and remaining 1 tablespoon oil, bring to a simmer and stir to combine. Toss to coat the pasta with the sauce, adding the remaining pasta water, as needed, if it seems dry. (You may not need all of the pasta water.) Serve with torn basil.
