Steps:

• Make the guajillo vinaigrette: soak guajillo chiles in warm water to cover overnight. The next day, scrape chili from skin and chop ½ cup flesh, discarding skin. In small saucepan over very low heat, cook garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil until soft. Remove garlic and mash to a paste; combine with chopped guajillo, ½ cup olive oil, lemon juice, Sriracha, chili flakes and salt and sugar to taste.
• Make the bread crumbs: In small heavy skillet over low heat, cook bread crumbs in butter with garlic and thyme, stirring occasionally, until golden; discard garlic.
• Prepare outdoor grill. Season chicken with salt and pepper and grill over medium coals (turning frequently) until cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes. Transfer chicken to platter and let rest 10 minutes. Cut breasts in half and split drumsticks from thighs; dress with guajillo vinaigrette.
• Mix yogurt with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste; dollop on 4 plates. Arrange 2 pieces chicken on each plate. Toss frisée and radicchio with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste; mound next to chicken and sprinkle with bread crumbs.

Steps:

• Cook pasta until almost fully cooked (al dente), drain, and set aside.
• While the pasta is cooking:.
• In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, sauté the onions in two Tbl of olive oil for approximately 3-4 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic and pepper flakes and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onions become translucent.
• Transfer the onion mixture to a bowl, leaving as much oil as possible in the skillet, and set aside.
• Add the chicken to the pan, sprinkle with salt, and sauté approximately 4-5 minutes until no longer pink (add additional oil as necessary).
• Add the wine to the skillet and deglaze.
• Return the onion mixture to the skillet and add the tomatoes with their juices and oregano. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the parsley and basil. Season with more salt, to taste.
• Add the drained pasta to the tomato mixture; stir well and cook for another minute or two to bring the pasta up to temperature and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with racks in middle and upper thirds. In a small bowl, stir together rosemary, oregano, chiles, lemon zest and juice, and 1 tablespoon pepper. Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with oil. Place chicken, skin side up, in dish. Spread herb mixture over chicken and under skin of breast. Season with salt and drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil.
• Roast chicken on upper rack, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place bell peppers and onion on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Gently toss vegetables to coat, then arrange in a single layer and season with salt and pepper. Add wine to dish with chicken and roast vegetables on middle rack, 20 minutes.
• Remove both pans from oven. With tongs, transfer vegetables to pan with chicken, arranging them around bird. Continue roasting until skin is golden and chicken is cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh, avoiding bone, should read 165 degrees), 20 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before carving. Serve chicken warm or at room temperature with peppers, onion, and pan juices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Heat the oil in a large skillet and brown the chicken pieces on all sides for about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a large casserole.
• In the same oil saute the garlic and onions until golden, then stir in the tomatoes, white wine, chopped parsley, salt, and a little black and red pepper. Simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, then pour over the chicken in the casserole. Now cover and place the casserole in the oven for 1 hour.
• While the chicken cooks, prepare whatever pasta you desire and serve with the chicken peices and sauce poured over.

Steps:

• Make the chile oil: Chop jalapeño and serrano chiles and put them in a small saucepan with 3/4 cup olive oil. Add hot paprika and grind in a fair amount of black pepper. Steep over medium heat for about 15 minutes. Let sit overnight, or all day.
• Strain chile oil into a large bowl. Slice 2 lemons and add them to the bowl. Season with salt. Coat chicken with the oil, put in a zip-top bag and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to a day.
• Heat oven to 500. Heat a cast-iron skillet until it's quite hot (about 5 minutes). Meanwhile, remove the chicken from the chile oil and pat it dry. Sprinkle it with salt and shower it with pepper; you need a lot. Slick the bottom of the pan with olive oil and put the chicken, skin-side down, in the hot skillet. Cook until the skin is crisp and golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the chicken skin-side up.
• Put the skillet in the oven and roast about 20 minutes, or until a thermometer registers 170 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh. Sprinkle with juice from half a lemon, shower with more pepper and allow to rest 10 minutes before serving.
