Cook Time 25 Minutes

Serves 4

For the Yuzu Gimlet (1 Serving)

  • 1 1/2 oz Aviation American Gin
  • 1 oz simple syrup
  • 1 half lime, juiced
  • 1/2 oz Yuzu juice
  • 1 slice of lime, for garnishing (optional)

For the Sticky Togarashi Wings

  • 2 1/2 pounds chicken wings, split into flats and drumettes
  • Kosher salt, for seasoning
  • Garlic powder, for seasoning
  • Black pepper, for seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely diced

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 tbsp water
  • Neutral oil, for the pan
  • 1/4 cup finely diced scallions, for garnishing (optional)

For the yuzu gimlet:

 

In a cocktail shaker, add your Aviation American Gin, simple syrup, lime juice and the yuzu juice. Stir (or shake) well for 10 seconds. In a glass gimlet cup or a cup that’s not as cool, pour your drink using a strainer. Garnish with your slice of lime.

 

For the sticky togarashi wings:

 

Season your chicken wings with salt, garlic powder and black pepper on all sides.

 

Set a grill to medium indirect heat, about 375 degrees F. Grill the chicken wings directly on the grates until they reach an internal temperature of 155 degrees F, for about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, make the togarashi BBQ sauce.

Ingredients

For the Smoked Ice Negroni (1 serving)

  • 4 cups ice cubes
  • 1 oz Aviation Gin
  • 1 oz Italian bitter aperitif
  • 1 oz sweet vermouth
  • 1 orange sliced for garnishing

For the Italian piccolo panino

  • 1 tbsp calabrian chili finely diced
  • 1 tsp calabrian chili oil
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • 1 French baguette sliced into 16 thin slices. We like La Brea Bakery
  • 16 bite sized slices fontina cheese
  • 1 7oz raw honeycomb
  • 8 slices Italian ham
  • 8 slices salami
  • 8 slices prosciutto
  • 2 cups arugula microgreens

Instructions

  • For the smoked ice negroni:
  • To smoke your ice, start by placing your ice or water on a sheet tray (or metal bowl) and smoke on a grill or smoker for 20 to 30 minutes. Once completely cool, pour the liquid into ice cube molds and place them in the freezer until frozen. We like to use large round ice balls for this recipe! 
  • In a cocktail shaker, add normal ice, followed by Aviation Gin, Italian bitter aperitif and sweet vermouth. Stir (or shake) well for 10 seconds. In a glass, add one of your smoked ice cubes, then with a strainer, pour in your negroni.  Cut a piece of orange peel off and squeeze to release the oils and place inside the glass. Garnish with half a slice of orange. Enjoy! 
  • For the Italian piccolo panino:
  • In a medium bowl, add your mascarpone cheese, your diced calabrian chili, lemon juice, calabrian chili oil and mix well until evenly combined. Season with Kosher salt to taste.
  • Begin building your paninos by smearing 1 tsp of honeycomb to the bottom slice, followed by fontina cheese (you can use a torch to melt the cheese), Italian ham, salami, prosciutto, microgreens and top with another slice smeared with your calabrian chili spread.

  • 1 1/2 tbsp water
  • Neutral oil, for the pan
  • 1/4 cup finely diced scallions, for garnishing (optional)

For the yuzu gimlet:

 

In a cocktail shaker, add your Aviation American Gin, simple syrup, lime juice and the yuzu juice. Stir (or shake) well for 10 seconds. In a glass gimlet cup or a cup that’s not as cool, pour your drink using a strainer. Garnish with your slice of lime.

 

For the sticky togarashi wings:

 

Season your chicken wings with salt, garlic powder and black pepper on all sides.

 

Set a grill to medium indirect heat, about 375 degrees F. Grill the chicken wings directly on the grates until they reach an internal temperature of 155 degrees F, for about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, make the togarashi BBQ sauce.

 

Make your cornstarch slurry in a small bowl by combining the cornstarch and 1 1/2 tbsp of water. Stir for a couple of minutes or until evenly combined. Set aside.

 

Set a medium sauce pan to medium heat. Coat in neutral oil and add your garlic cloves and minced ginger. Stir for a couple of minutes. Add your Bachan’s Japanese BBQ Sauce and mix it in until evenly combined. Add your rice wine vinegar, togarashi, the cornstarch slurry and mix everything in until evenly combined. Continue to stir and cook for 5 more minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside.

 

Remove the wings from the grill to a large bowl and toss with the togarashi BBQ sauce. Set the grill to medium high heat, about 450 degrees F. Return the wings to the grill over direct heat and cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side. You’re looking for a good char. Remove from the heat and set aside.

 

Serve the wings hot and garnish with scallions.

Smoked Sausage and Onion Stromboli

Author Mark & Fey
Course Dinner, Lunch, Snack
Keyword Ninja, pizza dough, sausage, tomato sauce
Cook Time 22 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 large onion thinly sliced
  • 12 ounces Italian mild sausages about 5 links
  • 1 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves plus more for ganishing
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • 1 pound pizza dough at room temperature
  • 1 pound part skim mozzarella shredded
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1/4 cup finely grated pecorino

Instructions

  • Start by firing up your grill. Today we’re using the Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Grill so we can smoke and bake on one grill. Add the sliced onions and sausages and smoke at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until cooked through.
  • While the sausages cook, make a tomato sauce by combining the canned tomatoes, basil, olive oil and salt in a blender. We’re using the Ninja Power Mixer Set’s Immersion Blender so we can blend and store leftovers. Blend the sauce until smooth.
  • Roll the pizza dough out into an 16 to 18 inch square. Leaving a border for rolling, spread out the sauce, sprinkle on the mozzarella cheese. Chop the sausages into thing coins and layer these onto the cheese. Roll the dough up onto its self to make thick log with a seam underneath. Use a paring knife to make 4 to 6 vent holes in the top of the Stromboli. Coat the dough with the beaten egg.
  • Bake the Stromboli at 400 degrees F for 18 to 20 minutes or until the dough is browned it has an internal temperature of 200 degrees F. We like to finish things up with a little extra grated pecorino cheese, shredded basil and a drizzle of olive oil.

Provoleta with Chimichurri

Provoleta Chimichurri

Author Mark & Fey
Course Appetizer, Snack
Keyword Appetizer, Cheese
Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients

For the chimichurri

  • 1 bunch fresh parsley about 1/2 cup leaves, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves
  • 5 to 6 cloves garlic
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • Olive oil about 1/2 cup for chimichurri, plus more for seasoning the bread
  • 8 ounces thick sliced provolone cheese
  • 1 large baguette cut into 1/2 thick slices

Instructions

  • Make the chimichurri first by combining the parsley, oregano, garlic, red pepper, and vinegars in a mortar and pestle. Work this mixture into a thick paste and add a heavy pinch of kosher salt and oil and combine until you have a thick but chunky sauce. A small food processor works for this too — just combine the ingredients with a few short pulses.
  • Heat a grill for two zone cooking with one side set to high. Preheat two small cast iron skillet over high heat and the move to the indirect side to keep warm. Make sure the cheese steaks are cold and put them over direct high heat to brown for just 2 minutes. Flip these cheese steaks into the hot cast iron skillets. Cook covered until the cheese is melted and bubbly about 2 to 3 minutes more. Meanwhile brush the baguette slices with olive oil and grill until charred, about 1 minute per side.
  • Serve the hot cheese with a big dollop of chimichurri and baguette for dipping.
