Kenji answered the question of why M&P tastes better in his guac video. Basically no matter how many times a blade slices food (by hand or food processor) itll never rupture as many cell walls as grinding will. Wholeheartedly agree with your take though.
I really appreciate the ingredients in the description, it would be even better if you could include the instructions in the future as well. Chicken was amazing!
Love 2 elements of these vids with Marcus: 1) the hand motions during pan frying really add to the aesthetic; and 2) Marcus’ gold chain necklace really adds to his aesthetic as well (would love to see the chain get bigger each week and maybe given a military rank as well) 😂
I'm on the fence about whether you actually enjoy this or not but I think you do a wonderful job. I'm one person in the world but you have a wonderful knack for teaching to my logic oriented brain.
Every time I blink Sonny’s subscription count rises! LOVE IT! Keep killing it, Sonny! I think you and Marcus are overdue for a sit down Q&A with your fans! Thoughts?
I’m from Indonesia and we use that stone mortar like that since hundreds years ago! The reason it taste better with the mortar is because its mineral content from the stone. We usually use a big stone that came from volcanic erruption 👍
I can't explain the mortar and pestle thing scientifically but Kenji Lopez came up with a good example for explaining the method: When you have a sponge which is soaked with liquid (which represents flavor) and you cut it (no matter how rough or fine the cuts are) you will end up with many little mini sponges, which again have the liquid (flavor) in them. In a mortar you squeeze out all the liquid (of the garlic for example). And to get back to the example: if you squeeze the soaked sponge repeatedly you will eventually squeeze out all the flavor that's in it
So it's because you squish it instead of chop it up. That's what a blender/mixer, processor, whatever you wanna call it effectively does is cut it a million times, but at no point does it smash.
@@djjazzyjeff1232yeah cutting releases a chemical I forgot which, Erich is why you dint cut lettuce, but break it instead. I'm sure this is true for all plants. Break and crush instead of cut.
Exactly what I was trying to say, thank you! I just tried to explain it from the top of my head, it's been a good while since I watched the Kenji video about that@@djjazzyjeff1232
It's the crushing action of two rocks smashing together that releases flavour compounds more thoroughly, as opposed to cutting them into tiny slices which is really what a food processor is doing. Also mortar & pestle produces less heat which can soften the flavour of things like garlic pretty readily. TL;DR: SMESH GOOD
This looks absolutely fantastic! The only thing I might do differently is to put the chicken and bacon on first and then the salad and croutons, for fear that the lettuce would get slishy when you fried the whole shebang. That is my main gripe about wraps and burritos -- slishy lettuce. But I would still eat the tar out of it!
If by slishy you mean wilted, it’s not in the pan long enough to do that. Just make sure the pan is on medium heat for at least 5 min before adding the wrap and it only takes less than a minute per side.
A mortar and pestle ruptures the plant cells release in their flavors. It also releases the enzymes contained inside. Which breaks down the meat and activates the flavor compounds further. J Kenji talks about this in his pesto video.
I'd add cheese to the inside of the wrap, then *cook parmesan into the outside,* otherwise not sure why cook it after wrapped except for the brown marks on the wrap. Gonna make this now, thanks, always!
Sonny! You da man! Wife and I are big fans, cook your recipes routinely. Congrats on your channel. Would really like to meet, buy your dinner at your favorite Austin food truck. Keep up the great work!
I love the bacon! I’m also a huge fan of tomato and red onion, so if you’re feeling adventurous, it’s amazing with some pico de gallo! 🤤 the perfect ceaser, wrap or salad!! I give it a 10/10!
Just made this and it was a big hit with the whole fam! Only adjustment I made was I added some shaved Parmesan since that’s how I like my Cesar salads.
I eat the salad on the side with with my chicken bacon wraps because I don’t want it to wilt and get warm when it tastes so much better all fresh cold and crispy
Hi Man, it's Mike Florence and I hope you are well. I'm a seafood chef specializing in all kinds of shellfish, working in the county of Kent in England. This is THE MOST AWESOME chicken and bacon caersar wrap!!! Thanks sooooo much for the upload. Long may you run Man. See Ya, Mike.
I definitely wouldn't have commented that you spilled something on your hot plate, but since you mentioned 5:27 and you were actually spritzing croutons then, I'm very mildly disappointed that it didn't line up in editing. ;) Looks yum.
I like that there is like a more kinda starting to form where we are beginning to see that Marcus has otherworldly powers, and uses them on total accident and doesn't know how he does it (like doing an accidental fatality on MKII on someone); he's aware, slowly more aware he can do things like teleport, but the funny part is while acknowledging he did such a thing, it doesn't amuse him in the slightest and doesn't really care if he learns how to or not-he's strictly here for free chicken.
Marcus kills me! Don’t get me wrong Sonny is a cooking character, but Marcus can come out of nowhere and surprise you. Like tonight…Marcus come on down! Teleport. Choked on my PBR. Too funny.
Hii, I enjoy your recipes it's all so delicious. But I enjoy your quick talk even more 😂😂😂I thought I talk a lot and fast but you win... With many kind regards from Amsterdam ❌️❌️❌️🥳
Smashing the ingredients in the mortar and pestle has a greater potential for crushing cell walls of plants, releasing the enzymes needed for the flavor compound reactions in the aromatics. Using a knife or food processor leaves more of the cell walls intact as it cuts through the material (even if they are small pieces).
I use a Portuguese marinade chicken from a local butcher, mix 50/50 nandos hot sauce with mayo, a tomato and onion vinaigrette, lettuce, cheese, cucumber. It's just easier than all of this effort and still very tasty 🍻
Sonny, you’re easily my favorite chef on any platform, but I have one question. Cooking like this (and it’s amazing) how have you not had a heart attack or stroke yet? Or taken on a shape like another of my favorite chefs-Dom Deluise.

parchment paper, little bit of asiago, ceasar wrap down, asiago on top, wrap in paper, panini machine

I grilled a wrap for the first time a little while ago, and it absolutely did elevate it to another level. Underrated step!

My biggest problem is that blenders tend to overheat or sometimes even cook whatever you're blending.

You're having so much fun with this, even more lately! Love it friend. Got some good ideas and random cravings from you.

Crouton is salad cookie

Awesome recipe, thank you! I didn't make the wrap, just the Chicken Caesar Salad with the croutons. It was amazing!

You seem calmer than you used to be. I can actually handle watching your videos now 👍
The oils from a mortar and pestal are more in take rather than food processors or blenders which enhance the flavor better
Never really cooked before but did two of your recipes and they turned out fantastic. Love the music on your videos too
This channel continues to give me ideas to utilize at my job. But also continues to make me laugh.
Ive done these in bars before, instead of croutons i do long Parmigiano crisps , I like it with a cajun chicken.
Love your vids ❤i have made some of your recepies and they were 🔥
That crouton free styling part was my favorite thing you’ve done lately! Haha
They should show the cleaning afterwards
The hardest part about working with Caesar dressing is picking out all the knives first.
Definitely making that one, chicken marinade. Nom.
Tnx for the mortar and pestle tip!
Just made this and it was a big hit with the whole fam! Only adjustment I made was I added some shaved Parmesan since that’s how I like my Cesar salads.
The marinade looks awesome, will def be giving that a try! Thanks!
When sonny had to fist pump like mad cause he knew marcus wouldnt stop otherwise hahah that was gold.
… MAKE IT! (T shirt idea right there btw)
You are the absolute best, Sonny.
Retired chef here. I will agree with and confirm your conclusion!
I have the same mortar and pestle and i can confirm its a good one
I’ll take some!!
Hold my hand!!
The "sick moves" over the chicken really cracked me up 😂
Looks amazing! Only change I would do is give it a Parmesan crust
Sweet flip 💯
That was the most love that fridge has ever seen lol😂😂😂😂
"Practice some sick moves next to your chicken."
Oh, you cunning linguist, you.

😂ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE 'B' SLAP AT THE END
GOTTA TRY THIS, TYFS
Pestle & mostar! very cute. Asian kitchen is not complete without them lol. Ours have passed owners through generations.
Great tip on the croutons ! I love making my own croutons! Spritz spritz😂😂

Hey Sonny, one kind of steak I’ve really been loving lately is Pichana (Top sirloin cap) can you do a video on it?
Chicken Ceasar Chimichanga ....... Love it. Not deep fried but still great
Does a mortar and pestle need to be seasoned like a wok or a cast iron skillet
How do you clean the mortar and pestle so that there is no smells without bleach?
Just pour some boiling water in it and let it sit for 15 minutes.
But honestly who cares if there is a little bit of garlic smell?
Do you put your food processor components in the dishwasher?
love the synthy goodness =)
This looks yummy‼️ Only thing I would recommend is a longer bit about the croutons😂
Could you make these ahead of time and freeze them?
Looks soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good
Mind blown 🎉 thank you 😋
