Steps:
- Add the 4 tablespoons butter to a large heavy-bottomed saucepot over medium-high heat. In batches, fry the ham until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add half of the fried ham back to pot; reserve the remainder for garnish. Whisk in the flour and cook for 4 to 5 minutes to create a medium-dark roux.
- Slowly whisk in the chicken stock, bring to a low simmer and cook until the gravy has thickened, 5 minutes. Season with the paprika and 1 teaspoon salt and pepper.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pearl onions, and sear briefly. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook on all sides for 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid has mostly evaporated and onions are tender, 4 minutes.
- For each serving, place one-quarter of the tater tots on a heat-proof serving plate. Scatter 1/4 cup of the mozzarella pieces over the tater tots. Add 1 cup of the ham gravy, one-quarter of the braised onions and 1/2 cup of the pepper jack cheese. Place under the broiler; broil until the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with some of the sliced banana peppers and reserved fried ham.
SWEET PO-TATER TOTS

Time 1h
Yield about 3 dozen tater tots
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and add the sweet potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes, drain and rinse with cold water to cool. Dry off any excess water with a kitchen towel.
- Put the onions and cooled sweet potatoes in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade. Pulse until the sweet potatoes are almost pureed but still a bit grainy. You should have some very small bits of potato visible. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to combine.
- Using your hands, shape the potato mixture into 1- to 1 1/2-inch-long cylinders, packing them very tightly.
- Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep heavy skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil registers 350 degrees F. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
- Working in batches, add the tater tots to the shimmering hot oil and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes, turning with tongs or a slotted spoon to ensure even browning and being careful not to overcrowd the pan. With a slotted spoon or skimmer, remove the browned tots to the towel-lined plate to drain. Serve warm.
MASA BALL SOUP

Yield 8 servings
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- For the masa ball: In a bowl, mix together the masa harina, manteca, horseradish, salt, baking powder, eggs and 3/4 cup water until completely combined. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- For the enriched broth: In a large pot, add the chicken stock, chicken legs and onions. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until reduced by one-quarter, about an hour. Strain the broth, discarding the onions. Remove and discard the chicken skin, then shred the meat and set aside. Season the broth with the vinegar and some salt.
- For the composed soup: In a pot on medium-high heat, bring the enriched broth back to a simmer. Form the masa mixture into 8 balls and add to the broth. Cook until the centers of the balls are hot, about 5 minutes. Add the celery, carrots and reserved shredded chicken and cook until the soup is almost boiling, another 2 minutes. Mix in the cilantro and serve.
THE DISCO BISCUIT
Steps:
- For the disco chicken marinade: Put on your best disco clothes and shoes. Lay chicken breasts flat on a cutting board. Carefully slice each breast in half, horizontally. Take cut chicken and place flat in a resealable plastic bag, then close bag. Now it's time for Poundtown. Put bag back on cutting board and use a meat hammer, large pot or rolling pin and pound out chicken without breaking bag to 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick. Remove chicken from bag and place in a large deep container. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
- Add buttermilk, salt, pepper and jalapenos to a food processor or blender. Process until jalapenos are pulverized, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour buttermilk mixture from processor into the container on top of chicken and return to refrigerator. Let chicken marinate in mixture for at least 8 hours.
- For the disco flour: Mix flour, salt, pepper, paprika, cumin and garlic powder in a bowl until combined. Take a break and put on some disco music. Set disco flour aside until ready to dredge disco chicken.
- For the spicy honey butter: Add butter, honey and cayenne pepper to a large pot. Bring mixture to a simmer and whisk vigorously. Cook until all butter is melted, then remove pot from stovetop and let mixture cool completely. Pour cooled spicy honey butter into a squirt bottle. Again, take a break and ponder if disco was the best music of the 70's. Maybe so, maybe not. Do not refrigerate spicy honey butter; store at room temp!
- For the Cheddar biscuits: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine flour, butter, cheese, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt and brown sugar in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Turn on mixer and mix until slightly grainy, not doughy, then turn off mixer. Add buttermilk, milk and cream and mix until doughy and well-mixed, then turn off mixer and remove dough from mixer bowl.
- Grease a muffin tin and form 5-ounce dough balls with your hands. Add dough balls to muffin tin and press down in muffin slots. Bake until tops are golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Now dim the lights and turn on the disco ball.
- For the assembly: If pan-frying, add oil to a pan and heat up to 350 degrees F. If using a deep-fryer, add oil and set fryer temperature to 350 degrees F.
- Remove chicken breasts one at a time from disco marinade and dredge in disco flour, pressing down on chicken to ensure a good coating on both sides. Remove chicken from disco flour and place into hot oil. Fry until chicken is golden brown and a meat thermometer inserted in the center registers an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, 5 to 7 minutes. Grab a regular thermometer and place it under your tongue-it should read above 98.6 because you're on fire!
- Grab a plate and make a design on it with the spicy honey butter. Cut a biscuit in half and put on plate. Add a little more spicy honey butter on biscuit halves. Place disco chicken on top of biscuits and cover chicken in spicy honey butter. Grab finely chopped green onions and sprinkle on top of disco chicken. Give yourself a high five! If you're not dancing, then start! With a knife (optional) and fork, cut into disco biscuit and savor the flavor(town). You have just made and now eaten a Guyutes Disco Biscuit. You are special, and don't let anyone tell you differently. (Make 7 more sandwiches in same manner.)
JERSEY DINER DISCO FRIES

Time 4h
Yield 8 servings
Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and cover with ice water. Let stand for at least 30 minutes and up to an hour. Drain the potatoes well. In batches, dry the potatoes on kitchen towels and let them sit for 30 minutes more to absorb any remaining moisture.
- Fill a fryer or a large, heavy saucepan with 5 inches of oil. Place over high heat and bring the oil up to 315 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan and place near the fryer or stove.
- In batches to avoid crowding, add the potato wedges and fry, shaking them in the basket to separate them, or if in a large pot, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Cook until the potato wedges are pale gold and slightly floppy, about 4 minutes. They should not be browned at this point. Remove from the oil with a wire skimmer and transfer to the wire rack to drain. Bring the oil back up to 315 degrees F and repeat with the remaining potato wedges. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set aside?do not throw out the oil. Let the potato wedges stand until completely cooled, at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.
- Meanwhile, prepare the gravy. In a high-sided skillet or medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and melt. Sprinkle the flour in the pan and cook, whisking until light brown, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the chicken stock and Worcestershire sauce. Continue whisking until there are no lumps. Let the gravy come to a bubble and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat and hold there, whisking regularly to keep it from sticking. Now it's time to finish the French fries.
- Reheat the fry oil over high heat to 350 degrees F. In batches to avoid overcrowding, add the potato wedges to the hot oil and deep-fry until crisp and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a sheet pan and keep warm in a 200 degree F oven, if needed, while you fry the remaining potato wedges. Season with salt.
- Preheat the broiler.
- Arrange the potato wedges on a baking sheet or oven-proof platter. Pour the gravy over the top of the potato wedges and top with the shredded mozzarella. Place the baking sheet under the broiler until the cheese has melted, about 1 minute.
CAJUN JAMBALAYA
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large stockpot set over high heat. Add the celery, onions and peppers, and saute until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the shrimp, chicken and Creole seasoning in a large bowl and stir to coat.
- Add the garlic to the stockpot, and saute for 1 minute. Add the bay leaves, tomatoes and Worcestershire. Add the rice and stir to coat in the oil, then stir in the stock. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and absorbs some of the liquid, about 15 minutes. Add the chicken, shrimp and sausage to the stockpot, and cook until the meat is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Serve hot.

- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and celery and cook until the onions are translucent, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the sage, parsley and 2 cups chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add salt to taste and 1 teaspoon pepper.
- Pour the broth mixture over the bread in the bowl and mix with a wooden spoon until combined. Whisk the remaining 1/4 cup chicken broth with the egg in a small bowl; add to the stuffing mixture and toss to combine. Spoon the stuffing into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down gently so it is evenly distributed. Bake until dry on top and golden brown, about 1 hour.
