ROSEMARY-PAPRIKA CHICKEN AND FRIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees, and place a sheet pan on the oven's lowest rack to heat. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lemon zest and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer half of the mayonnaise mixture (about ¼ cup) to a medium bowl. Stir in the smoked paprika, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Season the chicken all over with 1½ teaspoons salt. Add the chicken to the bowl of paprika-mayonnaise, and rub it all over the chicken. Set aside.
• Halve the potato crosswise (no need to peel), then cut it into ¼-inch-thick fries. Right on the cutting board, drizzle with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Place the chicken breasts skin side down on the heated sheet pan, then scatter the potatoes around the chicken in a single layer. Roast on the bottom rack for 15 minutes, then flip the chicken so the skin side is up. (No need to turn the potatoes.) Roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the fries are browned underneath and the chicken registers 155 degrees when an instant-read thermometer is inserted in the thickest part. (The temperature will rise as the meat rests.) Let the chicken rest for at least 5 minutes, then cut the chicken meat from the bones and slice. Stir the lemon juice into the remaining mayonnaise mixture. Eat the chicken with the fries and a puddle of the lemon-garlic mayo for dipping.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA RUB

Steps:

• Combine smoked paprika, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic, and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Pat chops dry with a paper towel and evenly distribute dry ingredient mixture on front and back of each chop. With fingertips, lightly rub dry ingredient mixture into the chops on both sides.
• Place chops on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
• Remove rubbed chops from the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• While chops are getting to room temperature, clean the grate of an outdoor gas grill and preheat to medium heat.
• When the grill is ready, lightly spray chops with avocado oil spray.
• Lightly oil the grill grates, place chops on the grill, and cook for about 3 minutes. Rotate chops 90 degrees to create a criss-cross grill pattern and continue grilling for 3 minutes. Turn chops and grill until pork chops are no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove to a serving platter and allow to rest under a foil tent, for about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
