Chicken Orzo Skillet

Yield: 4 servings

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken, cubed
salt and pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp salted butter
1 shallot, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1/2 cup orzo
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 cup spinach

1. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear on both sides until golden, about 8 minutes per side. Remove from pan and set aside.
2. To the same skillet, add shallot and garlic. Cook over low heat until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes.
3. Increase heat to medium, then add white wine and lemon juice. Bring to a boil.
4. Add the chicken broth and orzo, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally for 10-15 minutes or until the orzo is soft.
5. Stir in the parmesan cheese and spinach. Add more broth if needed. The orzo should be sticky and creamy, not dry.
6. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Serve.

Falafel

Yield: 24-30 patties

1 1/2 cups dried chickpeas
3/4 cup onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup packed flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup packed cilantro
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne
1 tbsp olive oil

1. The night before, soak chickpeas. Add dried chickpeas to a large bowl filled with water. (Dried beans will triple in volume, so ensure you add plenty of water to accommodate.) Cover and let soak at room temperature for about 18 hours. Drain and rinse well.
2. In a food processor, combine chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, lemon zest, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and olive oil. Pulse until chickpeas are finely minced and well mixed, scraping down the sides as needed. The mixture should loosely hold together when squeezed together with your fingers. If not, process a bit more.
3. Form into patties. Scoop walnut-sized portions of the chickpea mixture and use your hands to gently roll each into a smooth ball. The batter will be slightly tacky - if it's too difficult to handle, refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes, then resume scooping.
4a. Baking: Preheat oven to 425F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Arrange falafel on prepared baking sheets and brush each olive oil. Bake until firm and golden on the outside, 20 to 25 minutes.
4b. Frying: Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil in a small pot for several minutes until it starts to bubble. Keep the heat on medium. Drop 4 falafels gently into the oil. Let cook for 2-3 minutes until crisp and browned on the outside. Place on a plate lined with paper towel and repeat.

Crust:
1 cup coconut manna, warmed
1/2 cup honey, warmed
1/4 cup coconut oil, warmed
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 cups cassava flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp coconut sugar

Filling:
3 cups frozen blueberries
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper. Make sure your ingredients are warmed and pourable (use a warm water bath for 10 minutes to get everything soft).
2. Place the coconut manna, honey, coconut oil, and lemon juice in a food processor and process until combined.
3. In a small bowl, combine the cassava flour, baking soda, and salt.
4. Add about 3/4 of the dry mixture to the food processor and pulse until just combined. Do not overmix. Add the remaining mixture and pulse once to combine.
