While all the whos of Whoville were at McDonald's eating, the Grinch from his lair started plotting and scheming.

Girkin-flavored fries and odd socks will send them crackers.

So try the Grinch's new meal and head down to Macers.

Until 4th of Jan from 11 a.m., price and participation may vary while stocks last grinched for adults.

It's the late show ponancho with Stephen Colbert.

Welcome back once again to the Late Show. Ladies and gentlemen, my next guest is one of my

favorite chefs and a New York Times best-selling cookbook author. Please welcome back to The Late Show, Allison Roman. Allison, thanks so much for being here. Good to see you. Now, what do we got here? The new cookbook is something from nothing. Which I think is fantastic because mostly a lot of people have nothing. And you can you can make something from it, is what I'm saying?

Okay. So what is the most something you've ever made from nothing? God, I feel like a boiled potato with salt is a really underrated snack, but it does sound like food that you would eat if you were really in trouble. I'm Irish. I'm all in. Yeah, okay. Yeah, that feels like very on brand. What are we making tonight? This is a bit more something, I guess, but this is going to be a crispy chicken cutlet with Parmesan and burst tomatoes. And basically, I dedicate, like, an entire page in the book to Panko Breadcrumbs, because the book is sort of like, what can you keep in your pantry that will make you feel like you can make something? And for me, Panko breadcrumbs are that breadcrumb. They are like a thing that I use for everything and especially a cutlet. I'm all in. Great. I love anything breaded and fried. Let's do it. Exactly. Okay. So we got our cutlet right here. Yeah. So I feel like you, not everybody has like a mallet. Right. I feel like that's a very unique equipment, piece of equipment. And part of the book is also like, okay, I'm not calling for

any equipment that you might not have, but we all have a tiny skillet. So carefully, and without

hitting this because this is hot. Hot oil. Yeah, we're going to pound this out a little bit.

And kind of hold it closer.

No, we're not, it's not baseball style.

You wanna come up closer here.

Put your thumb here.

Yes.

And like, yeah.

There we go.

I like it.

Okay.

Your hand is in your pocket,

which is extremely comfortable and casual.

Sometimes violence is the answer.
