“Top Chef” winner Richard Blais shares a dish that he created in honor of Rach and his decade-long friendship with her. It’s basically chicken piccata with chopped lobster meat mixed into the sauce, along with a little white miso for extra flavor.
“Everyone loves chicken,” he says, “and everyone loves Rachael Ray, including me!” And the lobster part? Richard Blais says he’s a little bit like a lobster: “I’m expensive, some people think I’m overrated and at the end of the day, it’s good to have on the menu once in a while. So, chicken and lobster, Rachael and Richard—that’s what we’re doing.”
Pro Tip from Richard: You can sub shrimp for the lobster, if you like.
