CHICKEN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Cook the onions and apples in the butter, until tender, then season with curry powder. In a food processor, coarsely chop the nuts with the chicken. Add the cooked onions and apples and the egg and process just until combined and almost pureed. The mixture should come together but
• not be pasty. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground black pepper. Shape the mixture into 8 small patties. Dredge them lightly in flour and cook in butter for 3 minutes a side or until hot through.
• Serve over a green salad or with cabbage. Delicious topped with sour cream.

HOISIN CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a medium-sized skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and salt and pepper. Cook until no longer pink in the center. Remove and set aside on a plate.
• Add the broccoli and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender.
• Add in the chicken and hoisin sauce. Heat until cooked throughout. Serve over rice and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

HOISIN-GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the star anise and peppercorns; cook, stirring, until toasted, about 10 seconds. Add the cilantro, scallions and garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add the soy sauce mixture and simmer over medium heat until slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool, then add the chicken and toss. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours.
• Transfer the chicken to a rack set in a roasting pan (reserve the marinade). Refrigerate the chicken, uncovered, about 3 hours to dry out the skin.
• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Pour 1/4 inch of water and the reserved marinade into the roasting pan. Roast the chicken 20 minutes. Baste with the pan juices, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue roasting until the skin is glazed and a thermometer inserted into a breast registers 160 degrees F, 20 to 25 more minutes. Transfer the chicken (on the rack) to a board. Pour the pan juices into a skillet; simmer over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Drizzle over the chicken.
• Whisk the soy sauce, rice wine, hoisin sauce and honey in a bowl; set aside.
