The Chew’s Thanksgiving Headquarters

And here are three (3) brand new recipes for you to try out this Thanksgiving!

Beef Carpaccio Wrapped Asparagus with Gremolata
Recipe Courtesy of Michael Symon
Serves 4

12 spears asparagus
12 slices beef carpaccio
Gremolata (see recipe below)

Trim and blanch asparagus spears in boiling salted water for about 1 minute, remove from boiling water and chill in an ice bath. Remove asparagus from ice bath and lay out to dry on paper towels. Sprinkle beef Carpaccio with gremolta, then wrap beef Carpaccio around each of the asparagus, leaving the tips showing.

Gremolata
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic, or to taste

Combine the parsley, zest and garlic in a small bowl.

Braised Greens with Smoky Bacon
Recipe Courtesy of Michael Symon
Serves 4

½ pound slab bacon
3 tablespoons duck fat, lard or olive oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
2 shallots, sliced
2 Fresno chilies, seeded and sliced
1 pound hearty braising greens, tough stems removed
¼ cup sherry vinegar
Kosher salt
¼ cup wildflower honey
Tabasco sauce

In a 6-quart saucepan over medium heat, cook the piece of bacon in the fat until the bacon begins to render some of its own fat, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, shallots and chilies and sweat them for about 2 minutes. Add the greens and reduce the heat to low. Add the vinegar, a large pinch of salt and the honey. Simmer the greens until they’re tender, about 1 hour. Season to taste with salt and Tabasco sauce.
