GARLIC AND HERB CHICKEN PANINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the baguette in half lengthwise. Remove some of the interior bread to make room for the filling. Spread the garlic and herb cheese on both the top and bottom halves of the baguette. Spread the Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke Base on the bottom half. Layer the sliced provolone on top. Cover with the top half of the baguette and cut in half crosswise. Place the halves side by side on a baking sheet and brush the tops with the olive oil. Place another baking sheet on top and put a heavy pot or cast-iron skillet on top to weigh it down.
• Bake until the bread is crispy and the filling is hot, 10 to 12 minutes. Slice into small pieces and secure each piece with a cocktail pick. Serve warm.
• Cut the chicken into bite-size piece. In a large bowl, toss together the chicken, artichoke hearts, spinach and olive oil. Season to taste with red pepper flakes, salt and black pepper.

SHEET PAN CURRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the curry paste, vegetable oil, brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
• Put the green beans and carrots on an oiled sheet pan and pour slightly less than half the curry mixture over them. Use a pair of tongs to toss and coat them. Season with 3/4 teaspoon of salt.
• Nestle the chicken drumsticks on the sheet pan. Using a spatula or spoon, spread the remaining curry mixture on the drumsticks. Do your best to coat them evenly. Season the chicken with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt.
• Roast the chicken and vegetables (turning them halfway through to prevent them from getting too dark on the bottom) until they are tender and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken (without touching the bone) reads 170 degrees F, about 30 minutes.
• Scrape the chicken, vegetables, and any browned bits from the pan onto a large serving dish and garnish with the cilantro.
• Serve with rice, yogurt and lime wedges.
