1. In a large bowl, combine ground chicken and finely grated parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly until evenly incorporated and slightly sticky. 2. Place a sheet of parchment paper on the counter. Press the chicken mixture into a thin oval, about ¼ inch thick, shaping evenly so it cooks uniformly. 3. Add mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices to one half of the oval, leaving a small border around the edges. Spoon a thin layer of pizza sauce over the filling if desired. 4. Lift the empty side of the chicken oval and fold it over the filling to create a calzone shape. Press the edges firmly together to seal. 5. Sprinkle a thin, even layer of finely grated parmesan over the top surface. Press lightly so it adheres. 6. Carefully flip the calzone over on the parchment and sprinkle another thin layer of parmesan on the opposite side. 7. Preheat air fryer to 375°F for 3–5 minutes. 8. Carefully transfer the parchment with the calzone into the air fryer basket. 9. Cook at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, until the exterior is golden and firm and the internal temperature reaches at least 165°F. 10. Let rest 3–5 minutes before slicing to allow the cheese to set. Serve warm.

1. Pat chicken wings completely dry with paper towel. Removing surface moisture is key for crisp skin. 2. Season wings evenly with salt and black pepper. 3. Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes. 4. Arrange wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between pieces. Do not overcrowd. 5. Cook at 400°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until skin is deeply golden and crisp. Internal temperature should reach at least 175°F for tender meat. 6. If extra crispness is desired, cook an additional 3–5 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning. 7. While wings cook, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in hot sauce and keep warm. 8. Transfer hot wings to a large bowl. Pour buffalo sauce over top and toss until evenly coated. 9. Serve immediately with ranch dressing on the side.

1. Preheat oven to 300°F. 2. Pat brisket dry with paper towel. Season generously on all sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. 3. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy oven-safe roasting pan over medium-high heat. Sear brisket 4–5 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms. 4. Remove brisket temporarily and add sliced onions to the same pot. Cook 5–7 minutes until softened and lightly browned. 5. Return brisket to the pot, placing it on top of the onions. Pour beef broth around (not over) the brisket so the top stays exposed. 6. Bring broth to a light simmer on the stovetop, then cover tightly with a lid or foil. 7. Transfer to oven and braise for 3–4 hours, until fork-tender. Internal temperature should reach 195–205°F for proper tenderness. 8. Remove from oven and let rest, covered, for at least 20 minutes before slicing. 9. Slice against the grain and spoon pan juices and onions over top before serving.

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking dish or line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, minced garlic, and finely chopped spinach. Mix until evenly combined. 3. Pat chicken breasts dry if needed. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each breast without slicing all the way through. 4. Spoon the cream cheese and spinach mixture evenly into each pocket. Press gently to distribute filling without overstuffing. 5. Sprinkle the outside of each stuffed chicken breast with finely grated parmesan cheese, pressing lightly so it adheres. 6. Place chicken in the prepared baking dish. Leave space between pieces for even cooking. 7. Bake for 25–35 minutes, depending on thickness, until the exterior is lightly golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F at the thickest part (avoid inserting thermometer directly into the filling). 8. If additional browning is desired, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end, watching closely so the parmesan does not burn. 9. While the chicken cooks, trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. 10. Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes. 11. Arrange asparagus in a single layer in the basket. Cook at 400°F for 6–8 minutes, shaking halfway through, until tender with lightly crisp edges. This method produces the best texture and flavor. 12. Let chicken rest 5–7 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute. Serve alongside the air-fried asparagus.
