WIENER SCHNITZEL WITH LEMON-LIME BROWN BUTTER, PAPRIKA AND FRIED EGGS



Wiener Schnitzel with Lemon-Lime Brown Butter, Paprika and Fried Eggs image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 dried soft pretzels, cut into pieces
1/2 loaf challah, cut into pieces
1/2 loaf brioche, cut into pieces
6 veal cutlets, pounded thin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for dredging
8 large eggs
Canola oil, for searing
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup caper berries, chopped
1/2 cup white Spanish anchovies, chopped
1 bunch flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
2 limes, juiced
2 lemons, juiced
1 tablespoon smoked Hungarian sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Add the pretzels, challah and brioche to a food processor and pulse until very fine breadcrumbs form. Season the veal with salt and pepper. Put the flour and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls. Whisk together 2 of the eggs in a third bowl. Dip each cutlet in the flour, then the eggs and finally the breadcrumbs, making sure both sides are completely coated.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast-iron pan and sear the veal, one or two at a time, until they begin to brown around the edges, around 2 minutes. Flip and add a generous tablespoon of butter per veal cutlet. When the butter begins to brown, add some of the caper berries, anchovies and parsley. Cook the meat until it's almost completely done and crispy on the outside. Remove the pan from the flame and sprinkle with the lime and lemon juice. This will stop the cooking of the meat.
  • In a nonstick pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up and place one on top of each schnitzel. Sprinkle the paprika through a sieve on each before serving.

PEANUT BUTTER-PAPRIKA COOKIES



Peanut Butter-Paprika Cookies image

This recipe comes from Sister Pie, a Detroit bakery specializing in pies and baked goods, like blueberry plum balsamic pie, buttered corn scones and rhubarb blondies, that are "comforting with a side of adventure." These oversize cookies embody that ethos. They're tender, sweet and peanut buttery, but gussied up with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt and a hint of smoked paprika.

Provided by Margaux Laskey

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups/290 grams all-purpose flour
1/3 cup/50 grams whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 cup/225 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks), at room temperature
1 1/4 cups/310 grams creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup/150 grams packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons flaky sea salt
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Mix the dough: In a medium bowl, gently whisk together the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the smoked paprika. Set aside.
  • Place the butter, peanut butter and both sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and cream on medium speed until homogeneous and paste-like, about 4 minutes. You will see the mixture change from grainy and wet to fluffy and voluminous.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until fully combined, about 2 minutes. Scrape the bowl and paddle thoroughly using a silicone spatula, to fully incorporate all ingredients.
  • Add the flour mixture slowly and mix on low speed until the flour is completely incorporated. If you notice any flour at the bottom of the bowl, use your spatula to finish the mixing process.
  • Scrape the cookie dough from the bowl onto a big sheet of plastic wrap. Wrap the dough tightly and transfer to your refrigerator, where it should rest for at least 24 hours and up to 3 days. (Alternatively, you may freeze the dough for up to 3 months, then let it thaw on the kitchen counter overnight before proceeding with the recipe.)
  • Take the dough out of the refrigerator 2 to 3 hours before you plan to bake the cookies. Once it's quite soft, heat your oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Use a 1/4 cup measure to portion the dough into 2-inch balls. Place on the baking sheets. Slightly flatten each cookie to a 1/2-inch thickness with your palm, then use a fork to do that classic hashtag design on top.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 1/2 teaspoons paprika, sea salt, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar. Top each cookie with about 1/2 teaspoon of the paprika mixture.
  • Transfer the baking sheets to the oven and bake for 16 to 18 minutes, rotating halfway through until the edges are beginning to turn golden brown and the tops don't look wet at all.
  • Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow to cool slightly, about 10 minutes, before transferring the cookies to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

GARLIC MASHED POTATOES WITH CHILE-PAPRIKA BUTTER



Garlic Mashed Potatoes with Chile-Paprika Butter image

Categories     Potato     Casserole/Gratin     Thanksgiving     Sauté     Vegetarian

Number Of Ingredients 10

1.5 pounds Russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
12 ounces Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
10 cloves Garlic cloves, peeled
2 Bay leaves
5 tablespoons Unsalted butter, divided
1/4 cup 2% reduced fat milk
1.5 teaspoons Kosher salt
1 teaspoon Paprika
1/2 teaspoon Crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Place potatoes, garlic, and bay leaves in a large saucepan.; add cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high; reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until potatoes are very tender, about 15 mins. Drain; discard bay leaves. Return potatoes to pan; mash to desired consistency. Stir in 2 tbsps butter, milk, and sale; transfer to a serving bowl.
  • 2. Heat remaining 3 tbsps butter, paprika, and crushed red pepper in a small skillet over medium until butter is melted and sizzling, about 2 minutes. Drizzle over potatoes; sprinkle with Sleppo pepper, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right paprika: Use a good quality paprika with a deep red color and a smoky flavor. Hungarian paprika is a good choice.
  • Clarify the butter: Clarifying the butter removes the milk solids, which helps the butter brown evenly and gives it a richer flavor.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: A heavy-bottomed saucepan will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the butter from burning.
  • Cook the butter over medium heat: Cooking the butter over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning and allow it to develop a rich, nutty flavor.
  • Swirl the butter regularly: Swirling the butter regularly will help to prevent it from burning and will also help to incorporate the paprika evenly.
  • Add the paprika gradually: Adding the paprika gradually will help to prevent the butter from becoming too spicy.
  • Taste the butter as you go: Taste the butter as you go to make sure that it is not too spicy or too bland.
  • Store the butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator: Paprika butter can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Paprika butter is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are using it as a spread for bread, a topping for grilled meats, or a sauce for pasta, paprika butter is sure to add a delicious smoky flavor to your meal.
