Sunnys Easy Baked And Loaded Pancake With Lemon Maple Glaze Food

SUNNY'S PEACHES AND CREAM PANCAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, make enough pancake batter according to the package instructions to make 6 pancakes. Whisk the lemon juice into the batter. Let rest in the refrigerator while you make the peaches.
• Heat an oven-safe 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Cook and mix together until the butter is melted and the mixture is combined. Add the frozen peaches and mix to coat. Let cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the pancake batter over the peach mixture. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a medium bowl whisk together the cream cheese, lemon zest and powdered sugar. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and a pinch of salt. The icing should be thick but pourable. If needed, whisk in more heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time until pourable.
• Remove the pancake from the oven. Slice like a pie and serve each slice drizzled with the icing.

SUNNY'S HERBED LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN GLAZE

Steps:

• Zest the lemon, then cut it in half and supreme/section it. Squeeze the juice of the remaining lemon center into a small bowl.
• In a medium pot on medium heat, add the onions, red chile flakes, olive oil, a nice pinch of salt and plenty of coarsely ground black pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onions are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, lower the heat and stir the garlic into the onions until lost and fragrant. Add the lemon zest and juice, lemon curd, chicken stock, Worcestershire, rosemary and thyme to the pot. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, another 3 to 5 minutes. Gently stir in the parsley and lemon sections. Season with salt and pepper.
• Use 1/4 cup to glaze a whole chicken while grilling. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the chicken when serving.

SUNNY'S EASY MAPLE AND LEMON PAN-ROASTED CARROTS

Steps:

• For the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk the maple syrup, butter, lemon zest and juice, chile flakes and a pinch of kosher salt.
• For the carrots: In a large saute pan on medium to medium-high heat, add the olive oil and when it begins to swirl, add the carrots cut-side down and season with kosher salt and pepper. Cook to sear and caramelize, 5 to 10 minutes, then flip. On the flip, add the glaze and allow it to bubble and reduce, about 2 minutes. Pour everything onto a serving platter. Top with a sprinkle of flakey salt and chopped parsley or carrot greens.

SUNNY'S APPLE-BOURBON HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• To make the glaze, add the apple cider, brown sugar, bourbon, pumpkin pie spice and cloves to a large pot. Turn the heat to medium high and cook, while stirring, until the liquid reduces and becomes slightly thickened like a glaze, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the butter and stir to melt. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
• Lay out plenty of aluminum foil to wrap the ham in and create a bed for it. Place the ham in the center of the aluminum foil and pull the sides up around it, leaving the top exposed. Pour over half the glaze, getting it into the spirals. Finish tightly wrapping the ham and place it on a rack in a roasting pan. Fill the pan with water, but do not let it touch the bottom of the ham.
• Cook until the internal temperature reaches about 140 degrees F (gauge 15 to 20 minutes per pound). Remember, it is already cooked, so you just need to bring it to temperature without drying it out.
• Remove the ham and raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Pull back the aluminum foil (watch out--it's steamy and hot!!). With a brush and the remaining glaze, slather the top of the ham, allowing the glaze to get into any creases of the spiral you see. Place back in the oven uncovered but still sitting in the foil and roasting pan, an additional 10 to 15 minutes. Remove and rest 10 minutes before serving.

BAKED PANCAKES WITH SAUSAGES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
• Place sausages in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Drain on paper towels.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, white sugar, and salt; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until light and fluffy. Add milk and shortening; mix well. Gradually stir in dry ingredients until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan. Arrange sausages on top of the batter.
• Bake in preheated oven until pancakes are golden brown and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Cut into 10 pieces and serve hot with butter and syrup.
