 Shrimp Cocktail Sauce

12/2024 from Elizabeth Cook

1 cup Heinz Chili Sauce

3/4 tsp finely grated lemon zest

2 Tbs fresh lemon juice

2 Tbs horse radish

2 tsp black pepper

3/4 tsp tabasco

Sheet Pan Chicken Shawarma

This serves about 6 people. You can serve it over rice with tzatziki and hummus, in pita bread, or over a salad.

Ingredients: 

• 3 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt 
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• Zest and juice of 1/2 a lemon
• 1 tbsp minced garlic 
• 1 tbsp dried oregano 
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 2 tsp cumin 
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon 
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper 
• 1 large red onion
• Olive oil spray 

How to: 

• Preheat oven to 425F. 
• Dice chicken thighs into 1 inch cubes. Add to a large mixing bowl with all of the other ingredients, except for the red onion.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate for at least 20 minutes on the counter, or place in the fridge for up to 12 hours for even more flavor!
• Line a baking tray with parchment paper and spread the chicken into an even layer. Slice the red onion and sprinkle it over the top of the chicken, then lightly spray everything with olive oil spray.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, then I like to turn the oven to broil for 3-5 minutes until the tops of the chicken get a little char. 
• You can serve this over rice, in a pita, or on a salad! Enjoy!

Brown Sugar Kielbasa

Ingredients

• 2 12 oz packages kielbasa
• 3 cups brown sugar
• 5 tbsp stone ground mustard
• 3 tbsp white vinegar
• 1 tbsp black pepper

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• In a large sauce pot, combine sugar, mustard, vinegar, and pepper and whisk over medium heat until the sugar has melted, about 2 minutes, then lower the heat all the way.
• Cut the kielbasa down the center, longways, then into small, bite-sized chunks. Add them into the sauce and let them cook for a minute or two as you stir to coat each piece.
• Using a slotted spoon or tongs, place the kielbasa onto a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake for 15 minutes. ***Parchment is essential here!!!!
• Taking the edges of the parchment, pick it up and slide the kielbasas back into the sauce.
• Toss them again to coat then repeat the step of placing them back onto the sheet and baking for another 15 minutes.
• Take them out and enjoy!
