FILIPINO-STYLE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES
Breakfast is hugely important in Filipino culture, a legacy of the country's rich agricultural past, when farmworkers ate large morning meals to get through the day. Accordingly, the morning after Thanksgiving, the brothers Chad and Chase Valencia - who own the Filipino restaurant Lasa in Los Angeles's Chinatown - make breakfast sandwiches for their family out of leftover asado (a salty-sour pork dish), ham or turkey. The sandwiches are endlessly customizable: Chase mixes the asado and its accompanying sauce into the eggs, like a scramble, to become the base of the sandwich, while Chad crowns his with a fried egg. But the constants are the queso de bola, a nutty Filipino cheese (similar to Edam cheese) served during the holidays that melts elegantly atop the meat, and pan de sal, a slightly squishy, yeasted roll whose sweetness stands up to all the savory components of the sandwich. Both the cheese and the pan de sal are readily available at many Asian grocery stores, and well worth getting to make superior sandwiches.

Steps:
- Heat a large cast-iron pan over medium heat. Slice the pan de sal in half and slather mayonnaise on both cut sides of the rolls.
- Place cut sides down on the heated pan and toast until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. (You may need to do this in batches.) Remove from pan and set aside.
- In a small sauce pan over medium-low heat, reheat asado with enough sauce to bring to a simmer. Alternatively, if using ham or turkey, add 1 tablespoon butter and cook ham or turkey slices until brown on both sides, about 2 minutes each side. (You may need to do this in batches, adding more butter if necessary.)
- When the asado comes to a simmer or while the ham or turkey is heating, fry the eggs in a separate pan: Heat a large nonstick pan on medium-low and add 1 tablespoon butter. Break eggs into pan and cook just until egg whites are fully set. Season with salt.
- Assemble the sandwich: Place the meat on the bottom half of the roll and top with a slice of cheese, a fried egg and the top bun. Repeat with remaining sandwiches and serve.

Steps:
- For the rice: Wash the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepot over high heat, bring the chicken broth to boil. Add the rice, cover and reduce the heat to low for about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. (Alternatively, add both the rinsed rice and the chicken broth to a rice cooker and turn the machine on - it will keep the rice warm until ready to serve.) Fluff with a fork and cover. Keep warm until ready for use.
- For the burgers: Mix the ground beef, onions and some salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Form 4 medium patties and set aside.
- Set a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Add a drizzle of canola oil and set the patties in the pan. Cover pan with a lid (or a second pan) to seal in the moisture and ensure juicy patties. Cook until well browned on first side, 3 to 4 minutes. Then remove the lid, flip over, replace the lid and continue cooking to desired doneness, about 3 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the burgers and keep warm.
- For the gravy: Add the butter to the pan with the drippings. Saute the mushrooms and onions until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a boil and reduce down for 2 to 3 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoons water to make a smooth paste. Slowly add into the gravy, stirring constantly until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm until ready for use.
- For the eggs: Add some canola oil to a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook sunny-side up, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and keep warm. (You can flip the eggs over-easy if you want them cooked a little more.)
- To serve: Place the cooked rice on a plate, place the burgers on top, then the eggs and finally the gravy. Garnish with parsley and tomato if desired.

Steps:
- For the chicken tenders: Place the flour, eggs and crushed tortilla chips into 3 separate shallow bowls or pie plates.
- Dredge the chicken tenders one at a time into the flour, shaking to remove excess. Then dip in the egg, allowing the excess to drip off and then dredge in the crushed chips, pressing to coat. Place on a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining tenders.
- Heat enough oil to come 1 inch up the sides of a large heavy-bottomed straight-sided skillet. When the oil is hot (a bit of flour will sizzle and bubble up) slip the chicken tenders, 4 at a time, into the hot oil. Fry until the outside is crisp and the inside is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove with a spider to a wire-rack-lined-baking sheet.
- For the buffalo sauce: Put the butter in a small saucepan and melt over medium heat. Stir in the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and cayenne pepper. Remove from the heat.
- For the sandwich: Preheat a panini press. Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Spread a couple of tablespoons of ranch dressing onto each side of the bread. Add a layer of sliced tomato on one half of the bread. Dip each tender into the buffalo sauce, flipping to coat, and then place 3 or 4 pieces in a single layer on the tomatoes. Top with pickles and lettuce. Top with the other half of the bread. Place into the panini press, close and cook until the outside is toasted. Remove and slice in half.
