Apple-Cranberry Stuffed Cornish Hens! 🤩

INGREDIENTS :
4 Cornish hens 🐔
2 tablespoons unsalted butter 🧈
¼ cup chopped onion 🧅
¼ cup chopped celery
⅓ cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1-1/2 cups cooked rice (long grain and wild, or Royal/Wild Blend) 🍚
½ cup peeled, diced Fuji apples 🍎
½ cup sweetened dried cranberries 🍒
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
kosher salt and freshly-ground black pepper
splash apple cider
1 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons maple syrup 🍁
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
pinch ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
kosher salt and freshly-ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS :
Make the Stuffing: Melt butter in a skillet, add onions and celery, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add pecans, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Deglaze with apple cider, scraping brown bits.
Remove from heat, stir in rice, apples, cranberries, and parsley. Season to taste and set aside.
Make the Glaze: Combine apple cider and maple syrup in a pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer until reduced to 1/3-1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Whisk in Dijon mustard and cinnamon until smooth. Set aside.
Stuff and Roast the Hens: Remove hens from the refrigerator 30 minutes before roasting. Remove giblets, rinse hens, and pat dry. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place a roasting rack in a pan and spray with cooking spray.
Season hen cavities with salt and pepper. Spoon ½ cup stuffing into each. Tie legs closed and tuck wings. Arrange hens in the pan.
Brush hens with melted butter, season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes, then reduce oven to 375 degrees F. Continue roasting for 40-50 minutes, glazing every 10 minutes during the last 30 minutes. Shield with foil if browning too quickly.
Hens should register 180 degrees F. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Garlic Butter Dream Rolls 🤤

INGREDIENTS :
1 cup whole milk (240g), warm (around 110F) 🥛
3 teaspoons active dry yeast or instant yeast 🥄
⅓ cup sugar (70g) 🍚
3 ¾ cup all purpose flour (490g) 🌾
1 large egg 🥚
1.5 teaspoon salt 🧂
6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened at room temperature (85g) 🧈
Egg wash: 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon milk 🥛
Garlic butter: ¼ cup salted butter (57g) 🧈
2-3 garlic cloves, finely chopped 🧄
1-2 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley 🌿

INSTRUCTIONS :
In a large bowl, stir together the warm milk with the yeast.
Add all the other ingredients for the dinner rolls to the same bowl.
Use a large bowl to stir together the ingredients until they form a shaggy dough.
Turn out onto a clean surface, and knead with a push-pull motion using your palms for 15 minutes. The dough will be sticky at first, but will become smooth and stretchy with time, so do not add more flour. You know the dough is done kneading when it passes the window-pane test (stretch a piece of dough slowly between your fingers until it becomes almost paper thin without ripping).
Transfer the dough to a large clean bowl sprayed with a little oil. Cover with cling wrap and place in a warm, humid spot to let the dough rise until it at least doubles in size. This typically takes around 90 minutes.
Once risen, punch the dough and turn it out onto a clean surface. Divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a tight, smooth ball. I like to do this by placing the dough on one palm which I hold flat, and twisting it around with the other palm which I slightly curve, using gentle pressure. You can also twist it into a ball on the counter using one palm. Make sure there aren"t any wrinkles or cracks.
Line a 9x13" baking sheet with parchment paper, and place the rolls on the sheet with even space between them.
Mix the egg yolk and milk in a small bowl to make the egg wash, and use a pastry brush to generously brush the rolls with the egg wash.
Allow the rolls to rise a second time in a warm spot for 30-45 minutes until they are puffy.
In the last 20 minutes, preheat the oven to 350F (conventional).
Once the rolls are risen, brush them with another generous coating of the egg wash.
Bake for 20-22 minutes until the rolls have a beautiful shiny golden crust on them.
To make the garlic butter, melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes. Then turn off the heat and mix in the parsley.
Brush the rolls with garlic butter while they"re still hot.
Serve & enjoy!

Perfect Creamed Corn 🌽

INGREDIENTS :
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons finely diced shallot
5 cups frozen sweet corn, thawed
1 cup heavy cream
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
pinch of cayenne pepper
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Optional: freshly grated parmesan

INSTRUCTIONS :
Dissolve the flour: Whisk the flour and milk together in a small bowl, then set aside.
Sauté the shallot: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Sauté the shallot in the melted butter for one minute, until softened.
Mix it together: Add the corn, cream, and thyme to the skillet. Stir for 4 to 5 minutes, until the corn has plumped up. Then add the milk mixture and stir for another 3 to 4 minutes, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
Blend some corn: Take 1 to 2 cups of the creamed corn and blend it in a blender or food processor until smooth. Alternatively, you could use a stick blender and spot blend a few times. This not only thickens the creamed corn but also enhances the corn flavor while making the sauce a vibrant yellow!
Season and serve: Add the blended corn back to the skillet and stir together. Season the creamed corn with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. If you"d like it extra creamy, stir in some freshly grated parmesan! Then serve it up warm.
