BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WHITE BEANS AND PECORINO

Transfer to large bowl. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in same skillet. Add remaining brussels sprouts, reduce heat to medium-high, and cook until brown, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer brussels sprouts to same bowl.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet; increase heat to high. Add garlic; sauté until brown, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Add broth and brussels sprouts.

Season with salt and pepper. Stir in cheese.

SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PECORINO AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Trim bottoms of brussels sprouts and discard any discolored or loose outer leaves. Using a mandoline, the slicing attachment on a food processor or a very sharp knife, shave sprouts into the thinnest of slices.
• In a large bowl, combine shaved sprouts with the other ingredients, mixing roughly by hand so that the greens begin to wilt a little. Season to taste with salt and add a little more olive oil if necessary, either for your taste or because the sprouts were large.

BRUSSELS SPROUT RISOTTO WITH LEMONY WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Place a medium saucepan on a back burner over low heat. Add the chicken broth and heat to warm.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and season with a pinch of salt. Cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant. Add the rice and increase the heat to medium. Stir the rice to coat in the oil and toast for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant. Deglaze with the wine and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until most of the wine has absorbed into the rice, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the shredded Brussels sprouts and a pinch of salt, then stir to combine. Using a ladle, add 1 cup of the warm chicken broth into the rice. Stir frequently until the broth is absorbed and the rice begins to release its starches, 8 to 10 minutes. Repeat with 2 to 3 more additions of the remaining broth, stirring the rice frequently, until the rice is tender but slightly toothsome and the risotto is loose and soupy.
• Stir in the Lemony White Beans and 1 1/4 cups of the Parmesan. Serve individual portions in shallow bowls, topping with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of the remaining Parmesan.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the beans, olive oil, chiles, lemon zest and juice, salt and a couple turns of black pepper. Gently mash, leaving some beans intact. Set aside until ready to incorporate into the risotto.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450°. In a medium bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 of teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
• Put the chicken pieces in a large roasting pan and toss with 1 tablespoon of oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Arrange the chicken pieces about 1 inch apart, skin-side up, and roast for 25 minutes.
• Add the Brussels sprouts and continue cooking until the chicken and sprouts are done, about 12 minutes longer. Transfer them to plate and leave to rest in a warm spot for about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the garlic, and the rosemary over low heat, stirring, for 3 minutes.
• Raise the heat to moderate and add the beans, 1/4 cup of the water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
• Cook, mashing the beans to a coarse puree, until hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley.
• Pour off the fat from the roasting pan. Set the pan over moderate heat and add the remaining 1/4 cup water.
• Bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan to dislodge any brown bits. Boil until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 4 minutes.
• Add any accumulated juices from the chicken and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Spoon the white-bean puree onto plates and top with the chicken, the Brussels sprouts, and then the pan juices.
