Drink: Apple Julep Recipe by BUSYMOMOFTHREE Ingredients: 1 quart apple juice 1 cup orange juice 1 cup pineapple juice 1/4 cup lemon juice 1 sprig fresh mint leaves Directions: Mix the apple juice, orange juice, pineapple juice and lemon juice in a large pitcher. When you're ready to serve, pour into glasses full of ice and garnish each with a mint leaf. Side Dish: Kentucky Biscuits Recipe by COOKIN4MY3BOYS Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 dash salt 1 tablespoon white sugar 1/2 cup butter 3/4 cup buttermilk Directions: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl, then cut in 1/2 cup butter until coarse crumbs are formed. Stir in the buttermilk, set on a lightly floured surface, and knead for two minutes. Place on an ungreased baking sheet, roll into a 6-by-6-inch square, and cut into 12 even sections (but don't separate). Bake for 15 minutes, or until a knife poked in the middle of a square comes out clean. Separate into biscuits and serve hot. Dinner: Bourbon Pecan Chicken Recipe by PGRAFF Ingredients: 1/2 cup pecans (finely chopped) 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs 8 skinless/boneless chicken breast halves 1/4 cup clarified butter (melted) 1/4 cup Dijon mustard 1/4 cup dark brown sugar 2 2/3 tablespoons bourbon whiskey 2 tablespoons soy sauce 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 3/4 cup unsalted butter (chilled/ cubed) 1/2 cup green onions (sliced) Directions: Stir the pecans with the bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons of clarified butter. Spread the mix on a plate and press the chicken into it to coat each side. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of clarified butter in a large skillet over medium heat, add the coated chicken, and fry on both sides until they're nicely browned and cooked through (about 10 minutes per side). Whisk the Dijon mustard, brown sugar, bourbon, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce in a small saucepan until smooth, bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, then remove and whisk in the unsalted butter one cube at a time. Do not return to the heat. Place the chicken breasts on a large serving plate, pour the sauce on top, and sprinkle with green onion. Dessert: Kentucky Bourbon Balls Recipe by KY Piano Teacher Ingredients: 1 cup nuts (chopped) 5 tablespoons Kentucky bourbon 1/2 cup butter (softened) 1 (16 oz.) package confectioners' sugar 18 ounces semisweet chocolate Directions: Pour the nuts and bourbon in a sealable jar and soak overnight. Mix the butter and sugar, then fold in the soaked nuts, form into 3/4-inch balls, and chill overnight. Line a tray with waxed paper and melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over barely simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping the sides with a rubber spatula. Coat the balls in the melted chocolate, arrange on the tray, and store in fridge until serving. ■ Derby Party! ■ ■ ■ ■ WWW.HOUSEBOATMAGAZINE.COM MAY | JUNE 2017 39
