STUFFED QUAIL
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the bread on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Toast for 5 to 8 minutes, until crisp. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, heat the butter until it's melted and foamy. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley, sage and chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper. Add the toasted bread and toss to combine. If you need more liquid for the bread, add more chicken stock 1/4 cup at a time. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool to room temperature
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Once the stuffing is cool, wear kitchen rubber gloves to stuff the cavity of the quails with about 1 cup of stuffing per quail. Place the remaining stuffing on the bottom of a roasting pan or large cast-iron skillet. Season the quail with salt and pepper and rest on top of the stuffing. Roast the quail for 15 to 20 minutes or until juices run clear when you pierce the skin. Serve right away.

Steps:
- Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl.
- Breast out the quail and cut off legs and soak in marinade overnight.
- Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove seeds and pulp with a butter knife. Soak in freshly squeezed lime juice anywhere from one hour to overnight (the longer the soak, the stronger tang of lime).
- When ready to assemble poppers, cut strips of hard, high-temp cheese that are approximately ½ inch thick by ½ inch wide (basically a strip to fit inside the hollow cavity of each halved jalapeño).
- Place cheese strip in each jalapeño and top with a quail breast. Wrap bacon tightly around the poppers-you shouldn't need a toothpick-and set along rim of an oven-safe skillet. Crack fresh black pepper over the top of the poppers.
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add quail legs from the marinade to the center of the skillet.
- Cook quail poppers and legs at 275 F for 20 minutes, then turn on the broiler to crisp the bacon and the legs. This should take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes at most.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let poppers cool for 5 minutes prior to serving.
- Garnish with freshly minced cilantro (optional).

Steps:
- Prepare the jalapeño poppers according to the package directions for the oven.
- Meanwhile, put the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up with a wooden spoon, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chorizo to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon and pour the rendered fat into a small heatproof liquid measuring cup. You should have about 1/4 cup chorizo oil; if not, top with enough olive oil to reach 1/4 cup. Reserve the skillet.
- Lay the bread slices on a cutting board and brush evenly with the chorizo oil on one side. Flip 6 slices over and top each with 3 tablespoons of the cheese. Divide the chorizo and jalapeño peppers evenly among the 6 slices and finish each with 3 more tablespoons of cheese. Close the sandwiches with the remaining 6 slices of bread, chorizo-oil-side up.
- Heat the skillet over medium-low heat. Put 2 sandwiches in the skillet and press down with a large lid. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking, covered, until the cheese is melted and the second side is browned, about 3 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Use a sharp knife to slice each sandwich in half and serve.
