Instructions

  1. 1 Combine vinegar, water, butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, black pepper, sugar, and minced garlic in a large pot; bring to a boil. Cool marinade to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
  2. 2 Pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken leg quarters and breasts; coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  3. 3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  4. 4 Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess; discard remaining marinade.
  5. 5 Cook on the preheated grill until chicken is no longer pink at bones and the juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near, but not touching, bones should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Instructions

  1. 1 Line a mesh strainer with cheesecloth and set over a deep bowl or pot.
  2. 2 Combine milk, cream, and salt in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally in a "figure eight" motion, until it reaches a temperature of 195 degrees F (90 degrees C). If you don't have a thermometer, this will be right before it starts to simmer. You'll see steam rising from the surface, and tiny bubbles forming around the edges of the pan.
  3. 3 Turn off the heat, pour in the vinegar, and stir slowly in a "figure eight" motion for 3 or 4 seconds.
  4. 4 Let the mixture sit, untouched, for 6 minutes.
  5. 5 Carefully ladle into the cheesecloth-lined mesh strainer so that the dripping whey drains into the pot or bowl. Let the ricotta drain into the pot for between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on how soft or firm you want your cheese. The longer it drains, the firmer the texture will be once chilled.
  6. 6 Grab the ends of the cheesecloth and lift the drained ricotta out of the strainer and place in a bowl. Let cool on the counter to room temperature, then wrap and chill thoroughly.
  7. 7 Remove cheesecloth and serve. Ricotta usually needs an additional pinch of salt when serving.

Instructions

  1. 1 Mix water and seasoning mix in a large bowl. Add tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, oregano, cumin, and sugar; mix well.
  2. 2 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Add tomato sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  3. 3 Remove chicken breasts from the pan and shred meat with two forks when cool enough to handle. Return shredded chicken to the pan with the tomato sauce. Cook and stir until chicken is coated with sauce and sauce reduces a bit, about 5 minutes.
  4. 4 Transfer chicken and sauce to a serving bowl and spoon onto taco shells.

  1. 1 In medium bowl, mix together tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and sugar. Season with Adobo; set aside.

Simmer, covered, until cooked through (thermometer will register 170 degrees F when inserted into thickest part of breast), flipping once, about 20 minutes.
  3. 3 Transfer chicken to cutting board; reserve sauce in pan. Remove and discard bones and skin. Using two forks, shred chicken breast. Transfer chicken to skillet with sauce, mixing to combine; continue to cook until sauce reduces and blends into chicken, and mixture begins to caramelize, about 10 minutes more.

Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Stir milk and vinegar together in a bowl; set aside until milk "sours", about 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Mix flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl.
  4. 4 Whisk egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract into milk mixture.
  5. 5 Slowly pour milk mixture into flour mixture while whisking constantly until batter is just moistened and evenly mixed. The batter might have some lumps which is fine.
  6. 6 Combine brown sugar, 1/4 cup melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Place a 1-quart resealable bag into a glass or cup. Pour cinnamon mixture into the bag; refrigerate until filling is thick and spreadable, about 10 minutes.
  7. 7 Mix 1/4 cup softened butter and cream cheese together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave for 40 seconds. Stir mixture with a whisk or fork until smooth. Continue heating in microwave and stirring until mixture is completely melted. Stir confectioners' sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract into cream cheese mixture until icing is smooth.
  8. 8 Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into the center of griddle. Cook pancake until bubbles start to appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
  9. 9 Cut 1 corner off the center of the bag with filling. Swirl filling over pancake, leaving enough space around edges that filling doesn't touch the griddle.
  10. 10 Flip pancake and cook until other side is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle icing over pancake; remove from pan and set aside. Repeat with remaining ingredients, wiping the pan/griddle with a clean, damp cloth in between each pancake to remove any excess cinnamon mixture, and spraying the griddle with cooking spray between each pancake. Doing this will prevent the residual mixture from scorching as you cook the next batch of pancakes.
  11. 11 Enjoy!
