GRILLED DEVILED CHICKENS UNDER A BRICK

Steps:

• If using whole chickens, use kitchen shears to cut along one side of the backbone of each chicken. Then cut along the other side to remove backbone; discard it. Open the chickens, skin side up, on a clean surface. Press down to flatten. Place in a large bowl.
• Thinly slice 2 lemons. Squeeze the juice of remaining lemon and add both to bowl with chickens. Add remaining ingredients, except salt, and toss. Refrigerate, covered, 30 minutes or overnight.
• Heat a grill to medium hot. Wrap 4 bricks with aluminum foil (a large heavy skillet can also be used). Remove chickens from marinade; salt both sides. Brush grill with oil; transfer chickens to the grill, skin side up, and place bricks on top of chickens. Grill 10 to 15 minutes per side, until skin is dark brown and juices run clear when chicken is pierced. Serve garnished with lemon wedges.

DEVILED EGGS WITH PEAS AND HAM

Steps:

• With a slotted spoon, gently drop eggs into a medium saucepan of boiling water; reduce heat to medium-high and cook 10 minutes. Using the spoon, transfer eggs to an ice bath until cool. Return the saucepan to a boil, season the water with 1 tablespoon salt, and blanch peas until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool.
• Peel and halve eggs lengthwise; remove yolks and transfer to the bowl of a food processor with peas, mayonnaise, mustard, 1 tablespoon water and a pinch of salt; puree until smooth. Spoon mixture into whites. Garnish with pancetta, pea shoots, and black pepper.

KOLOKITHOKEFTEDES (GREEK ZUCCHINI FRITTERS)

Steps:

• Shred zucchini into a colander and sprinkle with about 2 teaspoons salt. Allow to drain over the sink for 20 minutes.
• At the same time, mix water and flaxseed meal together until completely combined. Set aside and allow mixture to sit for about 10 minutes.
• Squeeze out liquid from onions and potatoes by wringing them in a clean tea towel over the sink. Set aside.
• Combine bread crumbs, mint, dill, parsley, lemon zest, pepper, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add flaxseed meal mixture and mix to combine.
• Rinse shredded zucchini very lightly and ring out any liquid in a tea towel. Add zucchini, shredded onion, potato, and carrot to the bread crumb mixture and combine. Add flour and baking powder and combine everything once more with your hands. Set aside to rest for at least 10 minutes on the counter, or up to 3 days, covered in the refrigerator.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a shallow frying pan over medium heat, making sure the oil doesn't burn.
• Scoop zucchini mixture in 1/3-cup portions and roll into balls your hands. Working in batches, add balls to the hot oil and gently pat into a patty. Cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes; flip and continue to fry until crispy and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining balls, adding 2 tablespoons more oil to the pan between each batch. Serve.
