Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces until nicely colored and cooked through. Remove chicken to a large bowl and set aside.
• Using the same Dutch oven, stir in the flour. This will create a roux. Stir in the onions and peppers. Add the chicken stock to deglaze the pan and stir in the heavy cream. Lower heat and cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Once the sauce has thickened, add the chili powder, coriander, cumin, cayenne, black pepper and the salt. Stir and cook for a few minutes. Add the cannellini beans, chiles and the chicken and simmer for another 6 to 8 minutes. At the very end, mix in the sour cream.

• To make roasted rice powder, heat a wok or skillet over high heat. Add raw rice and cook, stirring often, until rice is toasted and dark brown, but not black, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from wok and set aside to cool. Grind to a coarse powder in a mortar, blender or coffee grinder; set aside.
• To cook chicken, heat a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. When very hot, add 2 tablespoons water, then add chicken, stirring constantly to break up any lumps.

Mix gently but thoroughly. Taste and adjust seasonings. Mixture should be tangy, salty and lightly spicy.
• Spoon onto serving plate and surround with mint, lettuce and cucumber. Serve with rice. If serving with sticky rice, pinch some off, mold into a small ball and dip into larb, scooping up a little of each ingredient. Or scoop larb into lettuce leaves.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH HERB CHEESE, CHILI, AND LIME STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Use the point of a knife and your fingers to carefully separate the skin from the meat of the chicken across the breast and over the tops of the legs. Just loosen the skin with the knife, then carefully run your fingers underneath. Try not to tear the skin.
• Grate the lime and beat the rind into the cream cheese along with the chopped pepper.
• Pack the cream cheese stuffing under the skin of the chicken, using a teaspoon, until fairly evenly distributed.
• Push the skin back into place, then smooth out the stuffing into an even layer by gently rubbing your hands over the skin.
• Put the chicken in a roasting pan and squeeze the juice from the lime all over top.
• Roast for 1 1/2 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through. If the top of the chicken becomes too browned, cover the chicken with foil towards the end of the cooking time.
• Carve the chicken, spoon the pan juices over top, and serve.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Combine pepper and 2 tsp EACH of the herbs in a ziploc bag. (The original recipe called for 1 cup of flour and 1 tsp salt in addition to this stuff, but I have left them out to accomodate special diets and it worked well without them.).
• Add the chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat well.
• Place chicken in large roasting pan, skin side up.
• Combine margarine, wine, lemon juice and the remaining 2 tsp of each herb in a small saucepan. Heat on a medium flame, stirring, until well combined.
