PARMESAN SAGE RICE

Steps:

• Add rice, oil, cayenne and garlic salt to a medium sauce pan. Put temperature on medium and saute, stirring constantly, until the rice is evenly covered with the oil. You want to saute it at least 5 minutes to make the rice have a crispier (but not crunchy) texture when it's all finished.
• Add the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then cover, turn down to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes check it to make sure it's not too crunchy. If it is, just add a little more water and let it simmer longer.
• Remove from heat.
• Add Parmesan, sage, parsley and pepper and mix it up until Parmesan "disappears" into the rice.
• Add more of whatever you like to taste. It should be salty enough with the garlic salt, chicken broth and Parmesan, so be careful about that.

FRIED CHICKPEAS WITH SAGE AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Rinse the chickpeas and drain them very well. Line a baking sheet with a couple layers of paper towels and turn the chickpeas out on top in a single layer. Let the chickpeas dry thoroughly, at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours (the drier the better).
• Fill a medium pot with vegetable oil to a depth of 2 inches. Bring the oil to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat. Add the sage leaves and fry until a shade darker and crisp, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with a little salt.
• Add half of the chickpeas to the oil and fry, stirring often, until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return the oil to 350 degrees F and repeat with the remaining chickpeas. Cool completely.
• Gently toss together the fried chickpeas and sage, the Parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste.

• Spray the hot waffle iron with nonstick spray. Ladle 1/2 cup of the batter (or as much as your iron will allow) into each mold, and sprinkle with sausage and chives. Close the top and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, sausage and chives.
• Serve with maple syrup. Top as desired with sour cream, bacon or pesto.
