3. Pour ½ cup batter into the Skillet. Using the side helper handles, quickly  
spread the batter to make a thin layer that covers the cooking surface of the  
Skillet. Cook about 1½ to 2 minutes, or until browned on the bottom and dry

Skillet to 300°F. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to melt. Once butter has melted,  
add the soaked challah bread to the Skillet. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of the  
cinnamon sugar. After about 6 to 8 minutes, flip, sprinkle with another ½  
teaspoon of the cinnamon sugar and finish cooking for an additional 6 to 8  
minutes.  
4. With the help of a spatula, flip to cook the other side, 1 to 2 minutes or until  
browned on the bottom. Repeat with remaining batter.  
5. Serve immediately on a large plate with desired toppings.

1. Look through crabmeat to make sure there are no shells or cartilage.  
Reserve in refrigerator.  
2. Preheat the Cuisinart® GreenGourmet® Electric 14-inch Skillet to 325°F.  
Add the olive oil.  
tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided  
1. Squeeze all excess liquid out of the potatoes and onion by wrapping them in  
a clean towel and gently wringing. Place in a bowl; add the flour, parsley, salt  
and pepper; toss to mix thoroughly. Stir in the egg.  
2. Preheat the Cuisinart® GreenGourmet® Electric 14-inch Skillet to 375ºF. Add  
2 tablespoons oil and swirl to coat cooking surface. Drop pancake mixture by  
scant ¼-cup amounts to form 6 cakes – evenly spaced in Skillet. Press down  
on tops to flatten to about ¼-inch thickness. Cook about 10 to 12 minutes,  
carefully flipping halfway through, or until crispy and light brown.  
3. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the peppers and onions. Let them  
sweat for about 2½ minutes, or until the vegetables soften slightly. Stir in the  
garlic and salt; cook for about 5 minutes. Remove vegetables from the Skillet  
and let them cool to room temperature.  
4. Once the vegetables are cool, add them to the reserved crabmeat. To the  
mixture add the egg, panko, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Dijon, Old Bay and  
hot sauce (if using). Very gently mix all of the ingredients together (it is best to  
do this with clean hands to avoid over-mixing, but you can do it with a spoon  
if you are careful to keep the crabmeat intact).  
3. Repeat, using remaining oil.  
4. Keep warm on a rack in a 200ºF oven.  
5. From the mixture, form ¼-cup round cakes with your hands and place them  
on a clean plate, separating the layers with wax paper. Cover with plastic and  
refrigerate for 1 hour before sautéing.  
6. Preheat the Cuisinart® GreenGourmet® Electric 14-inch Skillet to 375°F. Add  
1½ tablespoons of the vegetable oil.

Sausage Bites in Mustard Wine Sauce  
These will be a hit every time. The leftover sauce is delicious as a dipping sauce  
8. When the oil is hot, sauté crab cakes in batches, approximately 4 to 6 minutes  
per side. Crab cakes should be a deep golden brown on each side.

edges of the wrappers with a small amount of water and fold bottom point  
up, making a triangle. Either crimp all edges like a pleat or fold up the 2 end  
points, and pinch to seal, using more water to help if needed. Continue to fill  
the remaining wontons. Keep the prepared wontons on a clean tray or cutting  
board and cover with plastic.

lemon wedges for serving  
1. Preheat the Cuisinart® GreenGourmet® Electric 14-inch Skillet to 400°F.  
2. Season the chicken parts on both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½  
teaspoon of pepper. Add the olive oil to the Skillet and brown chicken, skin  
side down first, about 4 minutes for each side. Remove and reserve. Add the  
chorizo and brown on both sides.  
3
½
¾
1
cup fresh lemon juice  
cup chicken broth, reduced-sodium  
tablespoon lemon zest  
3. While chicken and chorizo are browning, insert the large metal chopping blade  
into a Cuisinart® Food Processor. With the unit running, drop the garlic cloves  
down the small feed tube to chop. Add the onion to the work bowl and pulse  
to chop, about 8 to 10 one-second pulses.  
1
lemon, thinly sliced  
chopped rosemary for garnish  
4. Once chorizo has browned, reduce the temperature of the Skillet to 350°F and  
add the garlic and onion with the paprika, oregano and ¼ teaspoon salt. Sauté  
until vegetables are softened and lightly browned.  
1. Preheat the Cuisinart® GreenGourmet® Electric 14-inch Skillet to 400°F.  
2. Season the chicken thighs on both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt and all of  
the pepper. Dredge the chicken thighs in flour to coat lightly. Once Skillet is  
heated, add the olive oil. Place chicken in hot Skillet. Brown on both sides,  
about 5 to 7 minutes, per side. It is important not to move the chicken when  
it is first placed in pan; chicken will release from Skillet once it is browned.  
Reserve.  
5. While onion and garlic are cooking, add the drained tomatoes to the food  
processor and pulse to roughly chop. Add to Skillet and increase the heat to  
400°F. Cook the tomatoes until reduced and slightly caramelized, about 10  
minutes. Be sure to stir the tomatoes occasionally to prevent burning.  
6. Add the rice to the Skillet and stir to coat with tomato mixture. Add the hot  
broth and saffron and stir together well. Cover Skillet and turn the temperature  
down to 350°F. Simmer rice for 10 minutes.  
3. Reduce heat to 350°F. Sauté onions and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes until  
softened. Stir in the rosemary sprigs and remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt. Add  
the lemon juice to the Skillet, scraping up any brown bits that remain on the  
cooking surface with a wooden spoon. Let juice come to a boil and reduce by  
half. Add the chicken broth and lemon zest and let come to a boil.  
7. Once the 10 minutes have elapsed, add the chicken pieces to the Skillet by  
nestling them in the rice; simmer, covered, for an additional 15 minutes.  
8. While chicken is simmering, season shrimp with remaining salt and pepper.  
Add to Skillet with the clams and simmer, covered, for an additional 12  
minutes, until clamshells have opened.  
4. Nestle the browned chicken thighs in the onion mixture. Place lemon slices on  
top of the chicken. Reduce heat again to 300°F. Cover and cook until thighs  
are cooked through, about 45 to 50 minutes.  
9. Stir in the parsley, peas, and juice of ½ lemon.  
10. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.  
5. Garnish with rosemary; serve in shallow bowls with rice or mashed potatoes.

before baking and let stand at room temperature.
