Crab Stuffed Cheddar Bay Biscuit with a Lemon Butter Sauce Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1 cup milk 1 cup lump crab meat 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/2 cup unsalted butter (for sauce) 2 cloves garlic, minced Salt and pepper to taste Directions 1. Set your oven to preheat at 400°F (200°C) so it’s nice and hot for your biscuits. 2. In a big mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt. 3. Add in the cold, cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour mix until it all looks like coarse crumbs. 4. Stir the shredded cheddar cheese into the mixture. 5. Pour the milk in gradually, stirring until a soft dough forms. 6. Gently fold in the lump crab meat, chopped green onions, and Old Bay seasoning. Try not to overmix so the dough stays nice and tender. 7. Scoop out heaping spoonfuls of the dough and drop them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. 8. Slide the baking sheet into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed up and golden brown. 9. While the biscuits are baking, let’s make that lovely lemon butter sauce. Over medium heat, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the minced garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1 minute. 10. Pour in the lemon juice and give it a quick stir. Season the sauce with a bit of salt and pepper to your taste. 11. When the biscuits are fresh out of the oven, serve them warm and drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the top. Enjoy every bite!

Chef John's Chicken Kiev Golden Garlic Herb Butter Chicken Kiev Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped 1 teaspoon lemon juice Salt and black pepper, to taste 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 2 large eggs, beaten 1 cup breadcrumbs 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/4 cup vegetable oil (for frying) Fresh lemon wedges, for garnish Directions: In a small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic, parsley, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Shape into a log using plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Pound each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap to about 1/4-inch thickness. Slice frozen herb butter into four portions. Place one portion in the center of each chicken breast. Fold in the sides and roll tightly, securing with toothpicks. Place rolled chicken in the fridge for 30 minutes to set. Prepare three shallow bowls: flour in one, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs mixed with paprika in the third. Dredge each chilled chicken roll in flour, then egg, then breadcrumb mixture. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry each chicken roll for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20–25 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove toothpicks, rest for 5 minutes, and serve with lemon wedges.
