Braised Chocolate Chip Cookie with basil pesto

Method

1. Start by prepping your unsalted butter, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the shallots and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the chocolate chip cookie and let it braised, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the eggs and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with flaky sea salt right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
