It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

- #78376

1-2 hrs
ingredients
1 skinless boneless chicken breast half (5 ounce size), chopped
2 large egg whites, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup whipping cream, divided
1 tablespoon butter
2 ounces fresh wild mushrooms, such as crimini, oyster, or stemmed shiitake, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
36 wonton wrappers
1 ounce dried morel mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
1 cup shelled fresh or frozen fava beans, baby lima beans, or edamame
1/2 cup Madeira wine
1 cup low-salt chicken broth
directions
Place chicken, 1 egg white, salt, and pepper in processor. Using on/off turns, process until smooth. With machine running, gradually add 1/2 cup cream. Set mousse aside.
Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped fresh mushrooms; saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Cool to lukewarm. Stir mushrooms and tarragon into mousse.
Working in batches, arrange wonton wrappers on work surface. Lightly whisk remaining egg white. Brush wrappers lightly with some of egg white. Place 1 tablespoon mousse in center of half of the wontons. Top with rest of the batch, matching corners and pressing to remove air pockets, and seal edges tightly. Transfer to baking sheet. Repeat with remaining wrappers, egg white, and mousse. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
Place dried morels in medium metal bowl. Pour 1 cup boiling water over. Cover; let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Boil fava beans in medium saucepan until just tender, about 4 minutes. Drain; set aside.
Using slotted spoon, transfer morels to medium saucepan. Add mushroom soaking liquid to pan, discarding any sediment at bottom of bowl. Stir in Madeira. Boil until almost all liquid evaporates, about 7 minutes.
Add broth and remaining 1/2 cup cream. Boil until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in fava beans. (Sauce can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Bring to simmer before using.)
Working in 2 batches, cook ravioli in large pot of boiling salted water until ravioli float to surface, about 3 minutes. Drain. Divide ravioli among individual plates. Spoon sauce around ravioli and serve.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
