Daniel Breaker, award-winning actor from the hit Broadway show "Hamilton," is joining TODAY to show off his off-the-stage talent: cooking!

He's making a few of his favorite fall recipes: smoky, crispy tea-brined fried chicken and sweet potato soufflés in orange cups.

"Fried chicken is crunchy, salty and juicy, and it's the comfort food that spans generations and cultures," says Breaker. "Browning the chicken before cooking guarantees a juicy and well-flavored bird. The addition of tea deepens the flavor even further."

"Hollowed out orange cups are great for serving individual soufflés — and you don't have to purchase additional ramekins!"
