Sweet Potato Chips

From GE | 2012-02-012

Share>> Print >>

Makes 6 servings
1 Serving = 10 Chips

Ingredients:
Salt to taste if desired
2 Medium Sweet Potatoes (depending on your style you can peel them or not)

Step-by-step

  1. Thinly slice potatoes and pat dry. The best way to get nice thin slices is if you chop them on a flat edge so the “chips” may resemble a triangle or semi-circle shape.

  2. Place potato slices on baking sheets coated with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt.

  3. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes until browned and crisp then flip the potatoes and bake for another 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

Note: It may take more than 15 minutes on each side for the chips to get crispy. If you oversaturate the potato with cooking spray it will take even longer to bake to a crisp texture. It’s critical that you slice the potato thinly to get a crispy texture. Another option is to go for more oven fry approach in which case you would simply julienne the potato.

Pan Sear Salmon

The trick to perfectly cooked salmon is to leave it alone. Once you add it to the pan, don’t move it until it’s ready to remove and you’ll end up with a crispy top and juicy, medium-rare to medium flesh at the bottom.

Ingredients

  • (4 oz.) 1 inch thick salmon fillets

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

  • 4 oz. baby arugula, rinsed and drained well

  • 4 oz. baby spinach, rinsed and drained well

  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Step-by-step

  1. Season salmon fillets with 1/2 teaspoon salt and allow to rest at room temperature, 15 minutes.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add salmon, skin side up. Immediately reduce heat to medium and cook 3 to 4 minutes, covering skillet with lid after 2 minutes. Remove salmon from skillet and set aside, keeping warm.

  3. Remove all oil from skillet. Return to medium heat and add garlic. Cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add arugula and spinach and cook, tossing occasionally, until greens start to wilt, about 90 seconds. Stir in vinegar and cook until almost evaporated, about 30 seconds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  4. Divide greens between 4 serving plates, top with salmon, and drizzle any remaining juices from pan over salmon.

Squash and pear soup

Ingredients

  • 1 large butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1 inch pieces

  • 2 carrots, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces

  • 2 tbs extra virgin olive oil

  • 3 leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned and sliced

  • 2 Bosc pears, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces

  • 1/2 cup white wine

  • 1 tbsp crystallized ginger for garnish (optional)

  • 1/4 cups brandy

  • 7 cups chicken broth, reduced sodium

  • 1 large sprig fresh thyme

  • 1 one-inch piece of gingerroot, peeled and grated

  • 1/4 cup sour cream, reduced fat, for garnish (optional)

Step-by-step

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

  2. Place the squash and carrots in a roasting pan large enough to hold them in one layer (or use 2) and toss with oil. Roast for 10 minutes, then add the leeks and pears. Toss to combine and continue to roast for another 30 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and browned.

  3. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately add the wine and brandy, using a wooden spoon to scrape the vegetables and their caramelized juices from the sides and bottom of the pan. Transfer the vegetables and liquid to a large soup pot. Pour in the broth, adding additional water if necessary to cover the vegetables by one inch. Add the thyme sprig and grated gingerroot and bring hte liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 1 hour.

  4. Remove the thyme sprig and puree the soup either with a handheld blender or in batches in a food processor or blender. Transfer the soup to a medium mesh sieve set over another pot. Use a rubber spatula to press the solids through the sieve. If the soup seems too thick, thin it with a little water. Season to tase with salt and pepper.

  5. Just before serving, warm the soup over low heat. Serve in warmed bowls, drizzled with sour cream if desired, and garnish with the crystallized ginger and a sprinkling of fresh thyme leaves.
