BBQ Chicken Recipe

BBQ Chicken

The challenge in making BBQ Chicken Recipe is preventing the outside of the chicken from burning before the inside is cooked through. This is traditionally solved by painting the barbecue sauce on the chicken at the end of cooking. But this recipe uses a different method: an electric skillet. The result is a tender, tasty BBQ chicken through and through.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

* 1 tsp. oil
* 3 lbs. chicken pieces
* kosher salt and black pepper
* 16 oz. barbecue sauce
* 16 oz. orange soda

Preparation

1. Preheat an electric skillet to 275 degrees F. Add oil.

2. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. When oil is hot, add chicken to the skillet. Brown for 2 minutes on the first side. Flip.

3. Add the barbecue sauce and orange soda.

4. Cook, basting occasionally, 35-40 minutes until chicken is cooked through.

How to Make Lemonade

How to Make Lemonade Step 1 - Gather the Ingredients for the Lemonade

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Once you learn how to make lemonade with these easy instructions, you'll never go back to store-bought lemonade again.

The first step is gathering your ingredients for the Lemonade Recipe.

You will need:

* 1-1/4 cups granulated sugar

* 6 cups cold water, divided

* 5-8 lemons

In addition, you will need:

* a strainer

* reamer (optional)

* 1- or 2-cup liquid measuring cup

* pitcher

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Pour the sugar and 1 cup of the water into a saucepan. Over medium heat, bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and stir until all the sugar has dissolved.

Now you have a simple syrup. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate while you juice the lemons.

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Roll the lemons to warm them and get the juices flowing. Cut in half.

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Place a strainer over a liquid measuring cup. I like to use a 2-cup liquid measuring cup because the strainer fits easily over it.

Now juice the lemons over the strainer, allowing the liquid to flow into the measuring cup. Continue juicing until you have 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. You may need 5 lemons; you may need up to 8 lemons.

Combine the Lemon Juice and Simple Syrup

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Mix the refrigerated simple syrup and the remaining 5 cups of cold water. Add the fresh lemon juice. Mix well.

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Enjoy your lemonade! For variety, try garnishing with fresh mint, fresh lemon slices or a fresh strawberry.

Simple Syrup Recipe

Simple Syrup

Simple Syrup requires only water and granulated syrup, and can easily be made in only a few minutes. It's a building block for cocktails or for nonalcoholic drinks, and can also be used to sweeten iced tea or coffee, or even to brush over cakes before frosting to keep them moist. You can even flavor simple syrup by steeping ingredients like vanilla beans, herbs or citrus peel in it. Simple syrup will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1 cup water

Preparation

1. In a small saucepan combine sugar and water. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a simmer and the sugar dissolves until the liquid is no longer cloudy and is perfectly clear, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cool simple syrup completely before storing in the refrigerator.

This recipe for Simple Syrup makes about 1 1/2 cups.

Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Best Chocolate Chip Cookie

The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie in my book are big, fat, chewy and loaded with chocolate chips. These jumbo chocolate chip cookies fit that description perfectly. Moist, chewy and really big, these chocolate chip cookies are what the best chocolate chip cookies are supposed to taste like.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

* 1 cup butter, at room temperature
* 3/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. dark brown sugar
* 1/4 cup granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 3 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/2 tsp. rapid rise yeast or active dry yeast
* 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
* 2 cups dark or semisweet chocolate chips
* 1 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Cream butter and sugars together with an electric mixer.

3. Beat in eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy.

4. Lightly scoop flour with a spoon into a measuring cup (not a coffee cup or drinking cup). Then level with a knife. It is important to measure the flour correctly or this recipe won't turn out right.

5. Sprinkle the flour over the butter-sugar mixture, but do not mix it in yet. Sprinkle the yeast and salt over the flour.

6. Now mix in the dry ingredients, just until it becomes a soft dough. Do not overmix.

7. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts.

8. At this point, it's ideal if you chill the dough 24-36 hours. But if you're impatient (and who isn't when it comes to making cookies), you can bake these right away.

9. Line a heavy cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Alternatively, just use a heavy, insulated, ungreased cookie sheet.

10. Use an ice cream scoop or a 3/4-cup measuring cup to portion dough onto the cookie sheet. Leave about an inch room between the cookies. You will have room for 4-6 cookies on one sheet. Do not use two cookie sheets! Bake in batches on the center rack, or the cookies won't turn out right.

11. Place cookie sheet on the center rack of the oven. Bake 10 minutes. Without removing the cookies, turn oven temperature down to 350 degrees. Bake another 8-12 minutes, until the cookies are browned around the edges, but not in the center.

12. Important: Cool on the cookie sheet for at least 10 minutes before serving. The cookies are still "baking" (absorbing residual heat) at this point, so if you remove them too soon, they may not be cooked through.

13. Remove cookies to a rack and repeat with remaining cookie dough.

How to Measure Flour

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

How to Measure Flour

Improper measuring is probably the number one reason recipes fail. Flour is crucial to the structure of baked goods; too much flour and your product will be tough and dry. Too little flour, and your product will collapse when it comes out of the oven, and have wet spots and dense layers.

To correctly Measure Flour, use a spoon to lightly scoop flour out of its container into a measuring cup. Continue until the cup is overflowing. Then use the back side of a knife to level off the flour even with the top edge of the measuring cup. Repeat as necessary, with 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/4 cup measures. Be sure to look at my Step by Step: Measuring Flour Correctly for best results.

For the most accurate flour measuring, you can weigh the flour on a kitchen scale. This is what home economists do when they are testing recipes before publication; and it's the way Nigella Lawson always measures her flour on her TV show!

* One cup of white flour weighs 120 grams.
* One cup of whole wheat flour weighs 140 grams.
* One cup of bread flour weighs 130 grams.
* One cup of cake flour weighs 114 grams.

The most common mistake made in measuring flour is to dip the measuring cup into the flour instead of lightly spooning flour into the measuring cup. This can result in up to 25% more flour than the recipe calls for.

To see this for yourself, measure 3 cups of flour into a bowl by scooping the flour with the measuring cup. Then stir the measured flour, and re-measure by lightly scooping with a spoon. When you have measured 3 cups this way, how much flour is left in the bowl? This extra flour will make your baked products heavy and tough. So remember to measure by lightly scooping with a spoon!

Measuring Flour: Wrong and Right

Picture Of Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Measuring Flour incorrectly is one of the most common mistakes people make in baking and cooking. At the University of Minnesota, we conducted experiments where we learned that the biggest variable in every recipe is the cook. So standardizing measuring techniques is the most important way to ensure that a recipe works.

This is the wrong way to measure flour. Scooping flour from the container or bag directly with the measuring cup will pack the flour into the cup and you'll end up with too much flour. Even with a properly leveled top, this method is wrong.

Gram weight of flour measured incorrectly

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

A cup of all-purpose flour, properly measured, should weigh 120 grams. As you can see, the flour measured incorrectly by dipping the measuring cup into the flour weighs 161 grams. This is more than 30% more flour than the recipe needs. A cookie or cake made with flour measured this way will be tough and dry. Sauces will be too thick, and pie crusts crumbly and dry.

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

To measure flour correctly, you need calibrated measuring cups made for measuring dry ingredients. Do not use a coffee cup or drinking glass. Lightly spoon the flour directly into the measuring cup from the container or bag. Do not shake the cup. Do not pack the flour down.

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Keep spooning the flour into the cup until it mounds well above the top of the measuring cup.

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

Using a dinner knife, turn it so the flat side is down. Hold the cup with the flour in your left hand, and start sweeping the knife over the top of the cup to remove the excess flour.

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

You'll probably need to pass the knife over the measuring cup a few times to get a level surface. Do not shake the cup or pack the flour down.

Picture Of
Molten Chocolate Lava Cake

As you can see, the properly measured flour weighs 121 grams. That's an accurate measurement, and the recipe will be perfect.

Other Measure Flours weigh different amounts. For the most accurate baking, you can weigh flour instead of measuring it. But with some practice, your flour measuring skills will become quite precise.

Ice Cream Pie Recipe

Ice Cream Pie

This Ice Cream Pie is one of my favorite summertime desserts, because everybody loves it, and it's so easy to make. Although my recipe for ice cream pie calls for homemade chocolate sauce, you can certainly use store-bought chocolate sauce in a pinch.

Prep Time: 4 hours, 5 minutes
Total Time: 4 hours, 5 minutes

Ingredients

* 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust
* 1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
* 3/4 cup crushed peanuts
* 3/4 cup miniature chocolate chips
* Chocolate Sauce:
* 1 8 oz. semisweet chocolate bar, chopped
* 1 Tbsp. butter
* 1/3 cup heavy cream

Preparation

1. Spread softened ice cream into graham cracker pie crust. Smooth the top of the ice cream. Sprinkle crushed peanuts and chocolate chips over ice cream. Freeze until firm, about 4 hours.

2. Make the chocolate sauce: Place chopped chocolate and butter in a glass bowl. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat just until scalded (bubbles will form around the edge). Immediately pour cream over chopped chocolate. Stir until melted.

3. Cut pieces of pie. Spoon hot chocolate sauce over pie.

Strawberry Ice Cream

This Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe is made without eggs, so it's quick and easy. If fresh strawberries are in season, I recommend using those. If not, frozen strawberries work just as well for this homemade strawberry ice cream.

You will need an ice cream maker to make this Strawberry Ice Cream.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

* 16 oz. frozen strawberries (or 2 cups fresh strawberries, washed and hulled)
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
* 2 cups half and half or heavy cream
* 1-1/2 cups whole milk

Preparation

1. Place strawberries, sugar and balsamic vinegar in the work bowl of a food processor, fitted with a metal blade. Puree, leaving some chunks of strawberry.

2. Pour strawberry mixture and remaining ingredients into an ice cream maker. Freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
