Chef Alon Shaya is adding yet another pin to his international culinary map with his recently opened restaurant, Silan, at Atlantis Paradise Island. He's stopping by the TODAY kitchen to share a couple of the most popular recipes from the restaurant, both featuring date syrup: whipped ricotta with pesto and crispy chicken wings with spicy harissa and cool cilantro ranch

The harissa glazed wings are a fun way to casually enjoy one of our signature dishes. They are slightly spicy but rich in flavors from dried peppers, coriander and cumin. They are addictive when dipped into a cool ranch and cilantro dressing.

I love this recipe because the whipped ricotta is so smooth yet rich and light at the same time. It serves as the perfect backdrop for savory and sweet garnishes.
