Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

1 cup bread crumbs
¼ cup minced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 ½ teaspoons coarse sea salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground paprika
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)
1 pound ground chicken
1 large egg

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Place bread crumbs, onion, garlic, Parmesan cheese, salt, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper into the bowl of a food processor; pulse until blended.
Combine chicken, egg, and bread crumb mixture in a large bowl until evenly mixed. Divide and shape mixture into 4 equal patties. Place on a cookie sheet and cover with aluminum foil. Refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes.
Cook patties on the preheated grill until cooked through, at least 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the patties should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Pasta Skillet with Kielbasa

This kielbasa pasta skillet was inspired by several recipes here. I used what I had on hand, and everyone loved it! It's a nice change from regular pasta and meat. Try it with fresh garden tomatoes when they're in season. A Caesar salad would go well with this.

Beef and Guinness Stew

This Guinness beef stew is a very simple dish, but at the same time, it has a deep, complex, rich flavor. The maltiness of dark beer really does amazing things for the gravy. I served this in a nice ring of green onion-mashed potatoes. I hope you give this a try, whether for Saint Patrick's Day or any time of the year.

Instant Pot Lebanese Lentil Soup (Shorbat Adas)

This Lebanese Instant Pot red lentil soup is a beautiful sunny color thanks to red lentils. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of Aleppo pepper, if desired.

Norwegian Potato Klub

Norwegian klub is a dish my mother made when we were growing up. I like to have it topped with bacon grease, and my wife likes them brushed with butter and sprinkled with sugar. Sliced and fried the next day these are a hearty breakfast meal. If you have a grinder, you may grind the potatoes instead of grating.

Fruit and Yogurt Smoothie

This yogurt smoothie recipe is delicious! You may substitute the strawberries for any other berries or fruit.
