SUNNY'S LOADED DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• In a large pot over low heat, add the shredded chicken and stock. Heat gently for 15 minutes to reheat and rehydrate the chicken.
• In a large pan with straight sides on medium heat, add the butter, oil, onions, a pinch of salt and a hefty amount of pepper. Cook until the onions are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Then, add the mustard, red chili flakes, thyme and garlic. Cook a few minutes to combine, then add the flour and cook until you can't smell the flour anymore, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain the chicken stock from the pot of chicken (reserve the chicken) and slowly add the stock to the pan, stirring. Cook until thickened to a gravy consistency, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fry the crinkle fries according to the package instructions.
• Toss the parsley with the reserved chicken. In a shallow serving bowl, add the fries, some cheese, the chicken, more cheese, the gravy, bacon and scallions.

SUNNY'S BEER-BATTERED EGGPLANT FRIES WITH NUNYA BUSINESS TZATZIKI DIP RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:

• For the dip: In a food processor, add the cream cheese, dill, cucumber and 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice and pulse until smooth. Taste and add more lemon juice if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve. For the eggplant: Place the eggplant spears on a baking sheet and lightly brush with the oil just to coat. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, Greek seasoning, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the eggplant in batches and coat with the flour mixture, shaking to remove the excess, then remove to a plate. For the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, Greek seasoning, lemon zest and a nice pinch of salt until combined. Slowly whisk in the beer until you achieve a pancake batter consistency; you may not use all of the beer. Allow the batter to rest 5 minutes. If it thickens, loosen with a bit more beer. Heat a fryer filled with oil to the proper level or a pot with about 2 inches of oil to 365 degrees F. In batches, dunk the flour-coated eggplant spears into the batter, shake off the excess and gently place in the oil. Fry until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes, making sure to maintain an oil temperature around 350 degrees F. Remove the eggplant to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately spritz lightly with lemon juice and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve immediately with the chilled dip.

BEER-BATTERED FRIES

Steps:

• Fill a small Dutch oven with 3 to 4 inches of oil and heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil registers 325 degrees F. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1 cup of the beer and stir until smooth, adding more beer a tablespoon at a time if necessary until the batter is the consistency of heavy cream. Set aside.
• Using kitchen towels, dry the potatoes thoroughly. Working in batches, slide the potatoes into the oil, being careful not to crowd the pan, and cook until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or skimmer to remove to the towel-lined plate and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt.
• Raise the oil temperature to 350 degrees F. Dip the partially cooked fries a few at a time in the batter to coat. Using a fork, slide the coated potatoes 1 at a time into the oil, about 6 or 8 in a batch so as not to overcrowd the pan. Use a metal skimmer or tongs to keep them separate, as they tend to cling together. Cook until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to fresh paper towels to drain. Serve immediately.

SUNNY'S NUNYA BUSINESS PASTA PIZZA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Add just enough pizza sauce to the baking dish to coat the bottom. Begin to layer with half the pasta (uncooked), half of the remaining sauce, half of the mozzarella, half of the Cheddar blend, a pinch of Italian seasoning and some red chile flakes and black pepper. Repeat the layers a second time.
• Press the layers down to level and add 1/2 cup water to the dish along the sides (to not mess up the top). Top with the pepperoni. Sprinkle over some red chile flakes and another pinch of Italian seasoning and black pepper.
• Bake until the edges are bubbling and the pepperoni is beginning to curl on the edges, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove and immediately top with the Pecorino-Romano and hand-ripped basil. Allow to cool about 10 minutes before slicing.

Add the garlic, chili powder and cumin and cook until the spices are fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the beef, salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, breaking the beef into bits while browning, until fully cooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the marinara sauce and stir to coat. Let cook for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
• Heat the nacho cheese sauce according to the package instructions. Top the fries with the chili and nacho cheese sauce, then garnish with the scallions and pickled jalapenos.

Steps:

• For the lamb: In a large pan on medium heat, add the olive oil. When it begins to swirl, add the onion, garlic, oregano, lamb, salt and plenty of black pepper. Combine the ingredients, breaking up the lamb while cooking, until it is browned, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Layer the dip. In an 8-inch square dish, layer in this order: Spread the hummus on the bottom, then sprinkle evenly with the lamb, feta, tomatoes and cucumbers. Spread the tzatziki dip over the top and sprinkle with the dill to finish. Serve with the pita chips.

SUNNY'S NUNYA BUSINESS BUFFALO CHICKEN GARLIC BREAD PIZZA

• Mix the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the marinara, wing sauce and honey.
• For the topping: In a medium bowl, toss together the chicken, chiles, blue cheese and wing sauce.
• Build the pizzas. Top each toast with some of the sauce, then the chicken mixture and a sprinkle of mozzarella.
• Return the pizzas to the oven and bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 8 minutes. Serve with a drizzle of ranch dressing (and a cold beer, if you like).

SUNNY'S EASY EGGPLANT DIP

Steps:

• For the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a ramekin, add the olive oil and garlic. Roast until the oil begins to bubble and the garlic becomes a very light golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the garlic to a large bowl and put half of the oil in a large pan. Reserve the rest of the oil in the ramekin for garnishing.
• For the dip: In the large pan with the garlic-infused oil, add the eggplant, onion and paprika; you may have to do this in batches. Turn to medium-high heat and cook, tossing, until all sides of the eggplant are lightly golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer everything in the pan, bits and all, to the large bowl with the awaiting garlic.
• Using a mezzaluna, chop the contents of the bowl until broken down but still a bit chunky. Sure you can do this in a food processor, but it may lose the texture if over-pulsed. You can also chop all of this on a cutting board, then scrape everything back into the large bowl. Add the parsley, yogurt and lemon zest and juice to the bowl. Stir to combine, taste and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until cool.
• If traveling with this to a swanky party, wait to garnish until just before serving at your host's place. Transfer the dip into a serving bowl, make a nice swirl with the back of a spoon and pour over the remaining garlic-infused olive oil. Sprinkle over the chopped parsley and serve with assorted pita chips, grissini and flatbread crisps.
