Stuffed Chicken Breast with Brown Butter and Roasted Corn Gnocchi

A few weeks ago I ate at Crow, a fantastic little restaurant in my neighborhood. The served a gnocchi with brown butter, roasted corn and morel mushrooms that blew my mind.

Pork Chops with Apricot Peach Tea Glaze

In my ongoing quest of creating great dishes that use loose tea as a key ingredient, I’ve come up with some killer pork chops.

Too bad this tea is decaf – I’d sprinkle it over my bacon as a pick-me-up breakfast any day.
