Zucchini-Lemon Chips
Serves 4 to 6

You’ll find this easiest if you have a deep-fryer but a deep sauce pan will work, too. And your oil should be fresh since the zukes have such a mild flavor-you don't want them to taste like last week's fried oysters.

4 cups canola or olive oil
1 cup flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 lb firm large zucchini, sliced into paper-thin rounds
1 lemon, sliced into paper-thin rounds
2 Tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
15 large basil leaves


In a deep-fryer or a large, heavy saucepan, heat the pure olive oil to 350F. Set a wire rack over a large baking sheet and cover it with paper towels. Put the flour in a large resealable plastic bag , add salt and pepper and shake it up.

Now add about a third of the zucchini and lemon slices to the bag and shake to coat them with flour; shake off any excess and pop them into the floured to the oil. Cook until deep golden on both sides, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels to drain.

Fry the remaining zucchini and lemon slices in 2 more batches, adjusting the heat as necessary to keep the oil temperature constant.

Sprinkle the zucchini and lemon slices with the parsley and garlic.

Fry the basil in the hot oil until crisp, 10 to 15 seconds. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Gently toss the fried basil with the zucchini and lemon slices

Serve to your guests knowing they’ve never had this one before and that they will want your recipe.

Little Chicken Burgers
Serves 8

No, not "Chicken Little" burgers – how could we eat Chicken Little? And, no, I don’t mean just a little chicken.

These easy appetizers are small patties made with ground chicken, get it? And apparently mini burgers are a big thing at the coolest parties these days, so serve these and be cool.

1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 lb ground chicken
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup minced Italian parsley
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil
2 Tbsp lemon juice
Salt & freshly ground black pepper

Place the bread crumbs in a small shallow dish. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the chicken, garlic, parsley, oregano, basil and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Form the mixture into 16 patties, each flattened and about 2 inches in diameter.

Press the patties into the bread crumbs to coat each side. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and cook, turning once, until each side is browned and the patties have firmed up, about 10 minutes total. Serve hot.

Chicken Almond Puffs
Serves a bunch (depending on size of spoonfulls)

For your chicken use either a) leftovers, b) precooked packaged chicken or c) a purchased rotisserie chicken. This recipe will push our 30 to 35 minute limit but if you chop quick (but carefully) you should make it.


1 cup finely chopped, cooked chicken meat
3 Tbsp + 2 tsp toasted and chopped almonds
2/3 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup canola oil
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
3/4 tsp seasoning salt
3/4 tsp celery seed

Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake in preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Onion-Dip-Not-From-Soup-Mix

1 cup low fat sour cream
1/4 cup finely chopped scallions/green onions
2 tsp lemon juice


Blend sour cream and lemon juice and add scallions and stir. Just rovide each person with 1/2 cup of blanched vegetables for dipping and smile proudly.

Mozzarella in Carrozza
Makes 8

Carroza is Italian meaning “in a carriage”. I suppose the coating is the “carriage” but it seems to me there must be a better phrase. Anyway it’s an easy appetizer that’s not really like any other and that’s good, isn’t it?

1 8 oz package part-skim mozzarella cheese slices
8 slices thin, firm white bread, crusts removed
2 large eggs, well beaten
¼ cup milk
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper
½ cup plain dried bread crumbs
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
4 Tbsp butter or margarine
8 anchovy fillets, drained
1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp capers, drained
1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Preheat oven to 200F.

Place 2 slices cheese between 2 slices bread to form sandwich. Repeat with remaining cheese and bread.

Using low, wide bowls, in one, beat eggs and milk with wire whisk. In another, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Put bread crumbs in the third.

Dip sandwiches, one at a time, in flour mixture, shaking off excess, then in egg mixture, and finally in bread crumbs, shaking off excess.

In nonstick 12-inch skillet heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add sandwiches & cook until golden brown, about 1½ minutes per side. Cut each sandwich on diagonal in half diagonally (corner to corner; but you knew that).

Arrange on platter in single layer. Keep them warm in oven until all are cooked and the sauce is ready.

In same skillet, melt butter, add anchovies and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Add parsley, capers, and lemon juice; cook 30 seconds longer. Transfer sauce to small bowl and serve sauce with sandwiches.

I think they’re gonna love these.

Crab Dip with a Kick
Serves 4-6


There's crab dip and then there's CRAB DIP, and that's what we have here. A little horseradish, a little Old Bay helps turn it into one very special dip. But even if you paid a lot for the crab be sure to pick through for bits of shell before adding.

2 tsp bottled horseradish
1/2 to 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning

Crabby Stuffed Mushrooms
Serves 6


When people get stuffed they're kinda mellow, but apparently mushrooms get "crabby".




1 lb fresh mushrooms - big ones
7 oz crabmeat(fresh,canned or faux-ney)
5 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp dried

oregano
1/4 tsp ground savory

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prosciutto Roulades
Makes 12

These rolled-up easy appetizers are just that - easy. Won't take but a few minutes to make and they'll be gone in seconds when served.



2 oz. ricotta cheese (J/4 cup)
2 oz. Stilton cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon dairy sour cream
12 very thin slices prosciutto (at a double-digit price-per-pound they better be thin)
1 pear
Lemon juice


Garnish with lime slices and dill sprigs, if desired


In a small bowl, thoroughly blend ricotta cheese, Stilton cheese and sour cream. Spread evenly on prosciutto spreading almost to the edges.

Peel, quarter and core pear, then cut each quarter lengthwise in 3 thin slices. Brush slices lightly with lemon juice to prevent darkening. Place a pear slice on each cheese-topped prosciutto slice and roll'em. Keep them cool in the fridge until ready to serve.

Garnish with lime slice and dill sprig, if you want to add eye-appeal to taste-appeal.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Salami Crescents
Makes 32(Reduce everything by half for a smaller party)

Try not to eat them all yourself while waiting for the guests or family to arrive.



1 17 oz pkg. (2 sheets) frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 Tbsp dairy sour cream
1 tsp prepared hot mustard
16 slices Italian salami
8 slices Swiss cheese, room temperature
1 egg, beaten


Unfold pastry sheets. On a lightly floured board, roll out each sheet of pastry to a 14-inch square. Cut each square in quarters, making a total of eight 7-inch squares.

Preheat oven to 400F.

In a small bowl, mix sour cream and mustard. Spread evenly over pastry squares, spreading almost to edges of pastry. Cut salami and cheese slices to roughly fit the squares.

Arrange salami and cheese on the pastry.

NOTE: When you follow the instructions below don't pull the knife across; rather use a chef's knife or cleaver to cut straight down. This way you won't find yourself picking up little pieces of salami & cheese and trying to replace them on the pastry.

Cut each pastry square in half (corner-to-corner) to make 2 triangles, then cut into quarters.

Starting from wide side of the triangle, roll 'em up and arrange on baking sheets, points underneath; bend pastries gently into crescent shapes. Brush with egg. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until golden.

Hummus Just Like Grandma's (If you're Middle Eastern)
Makes 2 Cups


Compare the cost of 2 cups of store-bought hummus (not humus-that's garden stuff-decayed leaves and vegetable matter) with the cost of the beans, tahini, et al and you'll feel even better about this easy appetizer recipe for a delicious dip.


15 oz. can garbanzo beans, drained
1/4 cup fresh or frozen lemon juice
1/4 Cup sesame or tahini paste
4 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
1 tsp. salt

1/4 cup dry Marsala wine
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Now that's an easy appetizer. See, I said you'd be ready in 10 minutes.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gourmet Fried Cheese
Makes approx. 30 pieces

Why "gourmet"? Expensive cheese, not mozzarella. Be sure the cheese is cold when you make these so it will cut easily.



8 oz. Brie or Camembert cheese
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 cup fine breadcrumbs
Oil for deep frying


Cut the cheese into bite-sized pieces. Spread the flour on a square of waxed paper.

Beat the egg with a fork and mix well with the milk in a shallow bowl. Spread the breadcrumbs on another square of waxed paper.

Heat oil in a deep-fat fryer or wok to 325 degrees and dip the pieces of cheese in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in the egg-and-milk mixture and roll in breadcrumbs. Deep fry for 10 to 15 seconds, or until golden brown.

Serve immediately - but be careful, the cheese is hot.

Candy-Box Caramels
Ingredients
•12 ounces chocolate- and/or vanilla-flavor candy coating*, coarsely chopped
•1 cup toffee pieces, crushed; finely chopped pistachios; and/or nonpareils
•48 short plastic or wooden skewers (optional)
•1 14-ounce package vanilla caramels (about 48), unwrapped
•2 ounces chocolate- and/or vanilla-flavor candy coating*, coarsely chopped (optional)

2. Place toffee pieces, nuts, or nonpareils in a shallow dish. If desired, insert a skewer into each caramel. Dip one caramel into melted candy coating; turn to coat as much of the caramel as desired, allowing excess coating to drip off caramel.
