KATE'S KICKIN' SPICE BLEND
I put this together because I found myself using these same seasonings a lot in everyday cooking and I finally got tired of adding things separately! I use (with a tablespoon of olive oil) to season water before I steam greens or corn, to roast potatoes or yams (cut into 1/2 inch cubes and toss with olive oil), as a dry rub on meat for bbq, and in soups to add a little extra kick. It tastes similar to the seasoning they use in some restaurants for French fries. I use it pretty liberally because I like extra spice, can be used more sparingly if you like less. Start with a tablespoon and make it yours!

KICKIN' CHICKEN BAKE
This delicious twist on the chicken & broccoli crescent ring was a contest winner submitted on one of Emeril's Cooking with Kids specials. A little boy named Noah came up with this version, which I tried immediately and loved. I added jalapenos and more garlic to mine. I use leftover rotisserie chicken, skinned and boned or freshly poached chicken breast meat in this. Also NOTE: The original version called for only 1 can of crecsent rolls and made 1 wreath. However, I found there was a lot of filling, enough for 2 wreaths. I made 1 wreath and saved the extra filling to bake as a separate casserole (bake for the same amount of time and serve with crusty rolls on the side).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the poblano chiles cut-side-down onto the baking sheet.
- Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Once cool, remove the skins and discard. Dice the chiles.
- Cook and stir the bacon in a large pot over medium heat until it has released its fat and is beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, and discard all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease from the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high, and add the pork loin cubes. Cook, stirring occasionally until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the pork from the pot, and reduce the heat to medium. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and is beginning to turn brown, about 5 minutes.
- Stir the roasted poblano chiles, jalapeno peppers, oregano, cumin, New Mexico chile powder, cloves, salt, and cilantro into the onions; cook for 1 minute. Pour in the chicken stock and enchilada sauce. Stir in the bacon and pork cubes, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour. Stir in the hominy, recover, and continue cooking 1 hour more until the pork is very tender.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Always prepare and measure all ingredients before starting to cook. This will help you stay organized and prevent scrambling for ingredients in the middle of cooking.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Fresh vegetables, fruits, herbs, and spices will make your dishes come alive.
- Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to taste your food as you cook and adjust the seasonings accordingly. This will help you achieve the perfect balance of flavors.
- Cook Meat to the Proper Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that meat is cooked to the proper internal temperature. This will help prevent foodborne illness and ensure that the meat is cooked to your desired doneness.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking meat, fish, or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly and will result in steamed, not seared, food.
- Garnish Your Dishes: A simple garnish can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your dishes. Try using fresh herbs, citrus zest, or edible flowers to add a pop of color and flavor.
