Roast Chicken with Saffron and Lemon
Salade Lyonnaise
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 small shallot, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
8 oz. frisée, torn into bite-size pieces
1 tbsp. white wine vinegar
4 eggs INSTRUCTIONS 1. Boil bacon and 1 cup water in a 12" skillet. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook until water is evaporated and bacon is crisp, 35–40 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Transfer 3 tbsp. bacon fat to a large bowl. Add lemon juice, mustard, shallot, salt, and pepper. While whisking, slowly drizzle in oil until vinaigrette is emulsified. Add reserved bacon and the frisée; toss and divide between 4 plates. 2. Boil a 4-quart saucepan of water; add vinegar, reduce heat to medium, and, using a slotted spoon, swirl water. Crack eggs, one at a time, into a ramekin, and slide into water; cook until whites are set, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, divide eggs between plates; garnish with more black pepper.Andre Baranowski

Lady Baltimore Cake
Shaker Lemon Pie
2 cups sugar
½ tsp. kosher salt
2 large lemons, zested and thinly sliced, seeds discarded
4 eggs
4 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
3 tbsp. flour FOR THE CRUST:
1½ cups flour, plus more
10 tbsp. unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
2 tbsp. vegetable shortening
1 tsp. kosher salt
5 tbsp. ice-cold water INSTRUCTIONS 1. Start the filling: Toss sugar, salt, and lemon zest and slices in a bowl; cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 24 hours. 2. Make the crust: Pulse flour, butter, shortening and salt in a food processor into pea-sized crumbles. Add water; pulse until dough forms. Divide dough in half and flatten into disks; wrap in plastic wrap and chill 1 hour. 3. Finish the filling and bake the pie: Heat oven to 425°. Whisk eggs in a bowl until frothy. Whisk in melted butter and 3 tbsp. flour; stir into reserved lemon mixture. On a lightly floured surface, roll 1 disk dough into a 12" round; fit into a 9" pie plate. Trim edges using a knife, leaving 1" dough overhanging edge of plate; pour in filling. Roll remaining disk dough into a 12" round and place over top of pie. Pinch top and bottom edges together and fold under; crimp edges and cut 5 steam vents in the top crust. Bake until crust is golden, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven to 350°; bake until golden brown, 25–30 minutes. Let cool completely before serving.Andre Baranowski

1 clove garlic, minced
½ small onion, minced
1 tbsp. minced parsley
½ tsp. dried oregano
¼ tsp. dried thyme
1 (28-oz.) can whole peeled tomatoes, crushed by hand
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste FOR THE VEAL:

2 tbsp. roughly chopped parsley INSTRUCTIONS 1. Make the sauce: Heat oil in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium. Cook bay leaf, garlic, and onion until soft, 8–10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients; cook until thickened, about 20 minutes. 2. Make the veal: Heat oven broiler. Place flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in separate shallow dishes. Season veal with salt and pepper. Working with 1 piece at a time, dredge veal in flour, then dip in eggs; coat in bread crumbs and transfer to a plate. Heat 2 tbsp. oil in a 12" skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, and adding remaining oil as needed, cook veal, flipping once, until golden, 3–4 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet in a single layer. Spoon ⅓ cup reserved sauce over each cutlet; top with 1 slice provolone and sprinkle with 1½ tbsp. parmesan. Broil until cheese is golden and bubbly, 4–5 minutes. Garnish with parsley.Andre Baranowski
