Roast for approximately 40 minutes, tossing every 15 minutes or so, until vegetables are done and flavors have married!

Twice Baked Potato Casserole Richard Jones | H A R T M A N N & F O R B E S | o r e g o n
Temp: 400°Prep: 20 minBake Time: 2 hrMakes: 12 servings
InstructionsScrub the potatoes well and rinse under cool running water. Pat dry with paper towels and prick the potatoes in several places with a fork. Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until tender. Remove from the oven and set aside on a wire rack until cool enough to handle.
When the potatoes have cooled, cut each potato in half and, using a spoon or a melon baller, scoop the flesh out of the skins, leaving as little flesh as possible. Place the potato flesh in a large bowl and add 1 stick of the butter, the sour cream, heavy cream, salt, and pepper and mash until chunky-smooth. Add the bacon, cubed white Cheddar, half of the grated Cheddar, the green onions, and eggs and mix thoroughly.
Butter a 9x13-inch casserole with the remaining tablespoon of butter and reduce the oven temperature to 375˚ F.
Place the seasoned potato mixture in the prepared casserole and top with the remaining grated Cheddar. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly around the edges and heated through and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden. Serve hot.

Turn the heat up slightly and add the mashed potato and vegetables. Fry for 10 minutes turning over in the melted butter two or three times ensuring the potato and vegetables are thoroughly reheated plus you are aiming to brown the outside edges but not to burn the bubble and squeak.
Press the potato mixture on to the base of the pan with a spatula and leave to cook for 1 min. Flip over and repeat.
Serve.
NOTE: Bubble and Squeak is the name for fried left-over vegetables. It can be served for lunch or dinner with a fried egg, bacon, or meat leftovers. There is no specific recipe, it is simply a way of using up whatever you have left from dinner. One main component is mashed potatoes which is the glue holding all the other vegetables together and often, but not always cabbage.

InstructionsPreheat oven to 400 degrees. Rub the chicken breasts with drops of lemon juice and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a heavy, oven proof casserole dish (about 10 inches in diameter) until it is foaming. Stir in the minced shallots or green onion and sauté a moment without browning. Then stir in the mushrooms and sauté lightly for a minute or two without browning. Sprinkle with salt.
Quickly roll the chicken in the butter mixture and lay a piece of buttered wax paper over them. Cover casserole and place in hot oven. After 6 minutes, press top of chicken with your finger. If still soft, return to oven for a moment or two. When the meat is springy to the touch it is done. (Please use meat thermometer to ensure correct temperature. Chicken is done cooking at 165 degrees.)
Remove chicken to warm platter (leave mushrooms in the pot) and cover while making sauce.
To make the sauce, pour the stock and vermouth in the casserole with the cooking butter and mushrooms. Boil down quickly over high heat until liquid is syrupy. Stir in the cream and boil down again over high heat until cream has thickened slightly. Off heat, taste for seasoning, and add drops of lemon juice to taste. Pour the sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with green onion and serve immediately with your choice of side.
