BLACK GARLIC RICE PILAF

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for cooking over indirect medium-high heat.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat on the stovetop and add the oil. Once heated, add the onion, bell pepper and black garlic, stirring to combine. Cook until the onions have sweated and are starting to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to combine, coating the rice with the oil. Stir in the stock, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Cover with the lid or foil. Cook over indirect heat for 40 minutes. Remove from the heat, then rest for 10 minutes before serving.

INSTANT POT COLLARD GREENS & BLACK-EYED PEAS

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart or larger Instant Pot to sauté. Once hot, add the oil, onions, garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the ham hocks and sauté for another minute. Turn off the machine and stir in the black eyed peas, collard greens, salt, pepper, chicken stock, bay leaves, thyme, and liquid smoke.
• Lock the lid in place, making sure the valve is set to seal, and pressure cook on high for 25 minutes. Allow the machine to natural release for 10 minutes before manually releasing any residual steam.
• Carefully open the lid and stir in the vinegar and hot sauce. Give it a taste and adjust seasoning accordingly. Discard the ham hock bones and serve immediately.

INSTANT POT GARLIC PARMESAN MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Set a wire rack or steamer trivet inside the bowl of a 6-quart or larger Instant Pot. Place the whole potatoes on top of the rack in a single layer, as best as possible. Pour in the water. Lock the lid and set the valve to seal. Set the cook time at high pressure for 20 minutes. Allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes before manually releasing any residual steam.
• Carefully open the lid and remove the potatoes and rack onto a plate; set aside. Drain the water and return the bowl to the Instant Pot. Set to sauté and once the bowl is dry, add the butter and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until the butter has melted and the garlic has begun to brown. Stir in the milk and cook until the milk has warmed through.
• Turn off the pressure cooker and add the potatoes back into the pot with the warmed milk and garlic. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth. Stir in the salt, garlic powder, pepper and parmesan. Give it a taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Serve warm with the chives on top for garnish.
