3 strips thick-cut bacon, cooked until crisp, drained and finely chopped (rendered fat reserved)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
1 ½ tablespoons minced garlic
1 ½ tablespoons EMERIL'S CHICKEN RUB
1 ½ teaspoons Kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 ½ to 6 pound whole turkey breast, rinsed and patted dry
 
   
  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a shallow roasting pan or baking dish with aluminum foil. In a small bowl, combine the bacon, butter, garlic, and Chicken Rub and mix well. Using your fingertips, gently loosen the skin on both sides of the turkey breast so that it is separated from the flesh yet still attached near the breast bone. Divide the bacon-butter mixture in half and gently spread half between the skin and the flesh on each side of the breast. Season the outside of the turkey breast with the Kosher salt and pepper. Using a basting brush, brush the turkey all over with some of the reserved rendered bacon fat and then place in the oven. Roast for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 or 15 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the deepest portion of the breast reads 165 degrees F. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 20 minutes before carving.  Makes 6 to 8 servings

6 oz thick cut bacon, cut into 3/4-inch dice
6 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
 EMERIL'S CHICKEN RUB
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onions
1/2 cup Calvados or brandy
1 ¾ cups apple cider
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced apples, such as Gala
1 cup heavy cream
 Fresh chives, garnish
 
   
  In a large, heavy sauté pan, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp and the fat is rendered, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat and return the pan to the heat. Season the chicken on both sides liberally with the Chicken Rub. Dredge in the flour to coat lightly, shaking to remove any excess. Add the chicken to the fat in the pan and cook over medium-high heat until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Remove and cover to keep warm. Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the Calvados and cook, stirring, to deglaze the pan. Simmer until reduced by about half. Add the cider and thyme sprigs, bring to a boil, and cook until reduced by one-third. Add the apples and cook, stirring, until tender, about 2 minutes. Return the chicken thighs to the pan, add the cream, and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat, remove the thyme sprigs from the pan and discard sprigs. Divide the chicken and sauce among 4 plates, garnish each serving with the crispy bacon and fresh chives and serve immediately.  Makes 4 servings
