Trio of Roasted Potatoes
Terrific with turkey or any other roasted meats you might serve throughout the year.
Roast Duck Breast with Balsamic and Apricot Sauce
At the restaurant the chef uses a rich duck stock when preparing this dish. Duck-and-veal demiglace is substituted here. The duck breasts as well as the demiglace are available at many butchers and specialty foods shops.
Roasted Red Snapper with Cherry Tomato Salsa
A salad of baby greens and citrus is a nice accompaniment, and so is rice pilaf studded with chives. Spoon sugared sliced strawberries over scoops of strawberry sorbet for a happy ending.
This recipe can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Roasted Chicken Sandwiches with Jack Cheese and Chili Mayonnaise
Guests take part in the fun by assembling their own sandwiches with colorful roasted peppers, mixed greens, tomatoes, chipotle mayonnaise and jalapeño Monterey Jack cheese. Serve chilled sodas and iced tea.
Roast Chicken with Watercress
You can turn this into a main-course salad for brunch, lunch or a warm-weather supper by simply drizzling vinaigrette over the sliced chicken and watercress.
