What do professional chefs know about getting flavorful dishes to the table quickly and effortlessly? The answer is pan sauces. Once you’ve learned a few simple steps, you’ll be able to create an infinite number of your own sauces. Join Chef Sabrina Sexton, formerly of Gramercy Tavern, for an instructive menu that makes the most of quick-cooking cuts of chicken, lamb, and beef. Since pan sauces are made directly in the pan you use to sear your meat, they have the benefit of being amazingly quick to prepare---sometimes even in minutes. You’ll make and enjoy a menu of: Orange-Ginger Glaze for Poultry; Cilantro-Chimichurri Sauce; Chicken with Wild Mushroom Sauce; Roasted Garlic Sauce; Lamb with Green Olive Sauce; Lamb Loin with Garlic and Rosemary Sauce; Flank Steak with Soy-Ginger Sauce; and more.

Move over Bordeaux and Burgundy, wine from France's south is more and more becoming the go-to area for flavorsome as well as thoughtful selections. This region is not only one of the oldest wine regions of France, but also a top producer, second only to Bordeaux.

Certainly, delicious reds such as savory Syrahs of the northern Rhône or classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape, but also rich whites and refreshing rosés.
