Spread on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F for 10 minutes until crispy.

Good meal.

The meat was perfectly cooked (medium to medium well) which is better than many chefs here who cook the meat to well done (yuck). I wish there was more food (bigger portion) but still it was tasty!

Maine Lobster Roll
A summer staple! This is a classic take on the iconic Maine Lobster Roll. Butter-poached and chilled lobster is seasoned with fresh herbs and citrus, crème fraîche, and crushed red pepper flakes. Served on a potato bun with romaine lettuce and a side of crispy Yukon gold potato chips. One bite will transport you to the New England coast!

The luscious salmon burger is a thing of beauty. Chef John plates a perfectly cooked, moist 6-oz salmon patty flavored with dill, garlic, red and yellow peppers on a plush potato bun with gem lettuce, tomato, red onion, and Sriracha aioli. Paired with a side of crunchy, crispy tater tots on the side, this is the ideal spring or summer dinner.

BBQ Heritage Pork Chop
The main attraction here is a stunning bone-in heritage pork chop. The pork chop gets grilled to seal in all its natural juices, then basted in sweet and smoky BBQ sauce. Accompanied by classic Yukon Gold potato salad with a Dijon mustard-based dressing, and garlicky sautéed string beans.

Maryland Crab Cakes
Chef Chris' Maryland-style crab cakes use minimal filler and let the crab be the star. Lump crab meat is delicately tossed with lemon juice, as well as a touch of mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, and buttery Ritz cracker crumbs instead of breadcrumbs. The plump crab cakes are brushed with butter and baked until golden brown. They're delicious on their own, but made even better with a side of Chef's remoulade sauce and green rice pilaf, which gets its color from a little spinach.

Kale Salad with Chili Roasted Shrimp
We love a hearty kale salad and this is one of our favorites. Obviously, the fresh blackened Cajun shrimp are the star of this meal, but it’s the jalapeño, honey, and cumin dressing that gets tossed into the kale that steals the meal for us. The salad is topped with toasty pepitas for a nutty crunch, crumbled feta for salty creaminess, and cherry tomatoes for a little pop of freshness. This dish is meant to be eaten as a salad with the shrimp served cold or warm— totally up to you. If you like them warm, Chef recommends microwaving them for 45 seconds, no more than one minute— the little guys heat up quick!

New England Clam Chowder
Hearty, comforting soups are a staple of Chef Chris' home cooking; fast, filing, nourishing, balanced, and, most of all, delicious. This creamy, New England-style clam chowder makes a complete meal in its own right; great for lunch or dinner with a simple side salad and piece of bread. There are not many things better in life than a steamy bowl of chowder.

JG's Short Rib Mac n' Cheese
Enjoy your childhood comfort food, but kicked up a few notches. Chef Jose's signature macaroni and cheese is totally irresistible with al dente cavatappi pasta and a decadent four-cheese sauce. Adding braised beef makes the dish a bit heartier and more balanced. To take it over the top, Chef tops it with a buttery Panko breadcrumb topping infused with fresh herbs, plus some Gruyere and Parmesan cheeses for extra nuttiness, then bakes the entire dish. This is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that will have everyone fighting over the last bite!

BBQ Chicken & Gooey Mac n' Cheese
Oh man, do we love saucy BBQ chicken and ooey, gooey cheesy mac. Besides the obvious, we think what we love most about this meal is the subtle heat to the sweet smoky BBQ sauce. Oh, and did we mention the ooey gooey creamy mac and cheese?! The mac is finished with a Pepper Jack-Cheddar cheese crumb crust that just takes it over the top. This meal presents a delicious dilemma: what’s better, the side or the protein? Luckily you don’t have to choose! Chef Chris highly recommends heating this meal in the microwave
