Frangelico Recipes

FRANGELICO TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Combine the coffee and 1 cup Frangelico in a pitcher, and allow to cool if the coffee is hot.
• Whisk the egg whites till frothy. In a separate bowl beat the yolks and sugar with the 1/4 cup Frangelico for the filling. Add the mascarpone to the yolks and sugar mixture, beating it in well to mix. Gently fold in the foamy egg whites, and mix again.
• Pour half of the coffee and Frangelico mixture into a wide shallow bowl and dunk enough Savoiardi cookies for a layer, about 4 at a time, into the liquid, coating both sides. Line your tiramisu dish with the soaked Savoiardi cookies; they should be damp but not falling to pieces (though it wouldn't matter if they did). Pour any leftover liquid from the dipping process over the layer you have made.
• Put half the mascarpone mixture on top of the soaked cookies and spread to make an even layer. Pour the remaining coffee and Frangelico mixture from the pitcher into the shallow dish and make another, final, layer of Savoiardi, dipping as before and layering on top of the mascarpone in the dish.
• Pour any leftover liquid over the Savoiardi layer, and then cover with the final layer of mascarpone. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and leave overnight, or for at least 6 hours, in the refrigerator.
• When you are ready to serve, take the tiramisu out of the refrigerator and remove the plastic wrap. Mix the chopped roasted hazelnuts with 2 teaspoons of cocoa and sprinkle over the top layer of mascarpone. Then dust with the final teaspoon of cocoa powder, pushing it through a strainer for lighter coverage, over the nut-rubbly tiramisu.

CHICKEN FRANGELICO

Steps:

• Cut the chicken in ½ lengthwise & pound to ¼ inch thick. Rince the chicken under cold water them pat dry with paper towel. On a plate combine the flour and Italian seasoning and stir to combine thoroughly. Season the chicken with salt and pepper then dredge in flour mixture.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoons oil. Working in batches, sear the chicken until golden brown, about 3 min, per side. Remove and set aside.
• Drain the fat from the skillet and return the skillet to the heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter when it is melted, add in the shallots. Cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minute Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are golden brown around the edges and the liquid evaporates, about 4 to 6 minute.
• Add in the Frangelico and bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the skillet and reduce by half. Add in the stock and worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce until the sauce has slightly thickened.
• Lower heat to medium, return the chicken and continue to cook until the chicken has cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 6 minute Swirl in 2 tablespoons of butter and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the parsley, plate and serve immediately.
• Serve with pasta of your choice.

HAZELNUT LIQUEUR - FRANGELICO

Steps:

• In a glass bottle or jar, steep the chopped hazelnuts in the vodka for about 2 weeks in a cool, dark place, gently shaking the bottle every day.
• Gently pour the jar's contents through a regular strainer or sieve, pressing hard on the nuts to release all of their flavor.
• Follow this by two strainings through slightly dampened cheesecloth.
• For true clarity and professional looking results, pour the strained mixture through a large clean coffee filter placed inside a funnel or clean coffee cone; loosely cover with plastic wrap since the process may take several hours.
• In a very small saucepan, combine the sugar and water.
• Bring to a boil over moderately high heat.
• Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes.
• Let cool to room temperature.
• Stir in the vanilla.
• Funnel the strained hazelnut mixture into a clean, sterilized, glass bottle and then funnel in the sugar syrup.
• Cover tightly; shake to blend.
• Let mature, at room temperature or slightly cooler, for at least three weeks.
