Limesalsachickenskewerswithcilantrocrmesauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepot over medium-high heat. Add the rice and toast until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Add the stock, lime peel, salt and 1 1/2 cups water and bring to a boil. Cover the rice, reduce the heat to low and simmer until all of the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Let the rice stand, covered, about 5 minutes, then stir in the lime zest, juice and cilantro. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with more cilantro leaves and green onion.

Steps:

• Mix seasoning with fresh lime juice and oil together in a bowl.
• Place chicken in a reseable plastic bag and pour marinade to coat chicken breast well.
• Refrigerate 30 minutes or more. (I usually put this together in the morning and let it merry all day).
• Spray cooking oil on grill. Remove chicken from marinade, and discard.
• Grillchicken 10 minutes or until cooked through.

Steps:

• If using wooden skewers, soak in water for at least an hour.
• In a small nonreactive container, combine 1/2 cup of the tequila with the vinegar and lime juice. Whisk in the Lemon Oil. When well emulsified, stir in the shallots, chopped cilantro, and 1 teaspoon of the minced garlic. Pour into a nonreactive, shallow container large enough to hold the prepared skewers. Set aside.
• Using a very sharp knife, slice the chicken into 30 strips about 1/4-inch thick and 2 inches long. Thread the strips onto the soaked skewers and place them into the marinade, leaving as much of the skewer exposed as possible as you do not want the wood to soak up the marinade. Cover and marinate for 8 hours.
• Place the cilantro leaves in a saucepan of rapidly boiling salted water for 10 seconds to blanch and set the color. Immediately pat dry and refresh under cold water. Drain very well and pat dry.
• Place the blanched cilantro in a blender with the remaining 1/4 cup of tequila and 1 teaspoon of garlic. Pulse to combine. With the motor running, slowly add the canola oil, processing until the mixture is thick and bright green. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
• When ready to serve, remove the skewers from the marinade. Place a stovetop griddle, heavy-duty grill pan, or nonstick saute pan over high heat. When very hot but not smoking, add the skewers, a few at a time, and sear for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side or until the chicken is nicely browned and cooked through. Serve immediately with the Cilantro Dressing on the side.
• Combine oil with the lemon shells and fresh thyme in a heavy saucepan. Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Immediately lower the heat and barely simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Strain into a clean container. Cover and store in a cool spot for up to 6 months. Use the oil for sauteing, frying, and for vinaigrettes.

Steps:

• In a skillet, heat a small amount of oil on medium-high heat. Add chicken and season with salt and pepper.
• Cook the chicken thoroughly, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Add remaining olive oil to the skillet. Add onion and peppers and sauté for 5-7 minutes.
• Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
• Add the chicken broth, lime juice, black beans, tomatoes, rice, salt, and pepper and stir to combine.
• Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until rice is cooked through.
• Add chicken back to the pot. Add cilantro and combine.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Chicken & Marinade: In a large Zip-Lock bag, make the marinade by mixing together the lime juice, sherry, oil, oregano, and garlic salt. Remove three Tablespoons of marinade; set aside. Add chicken to the remaining marinade, turning to coat. Marinate chicken in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Soak wooden skewers in hot water at least 30 minutes.
• Salsa: In a bowl, mix all ingredients well, and chill for an hour or more before serving.
• Cilantro Crème Sauce:.
• Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Place in a serving bowl, chill a few hours or overnight.
• Skewers: Toss bell peppers and onion quarters in with marinating chicken for last 30 minutes. Starting and ending with red bell pepper, make 7-8 skewers.
• Place the skewers chicken on grill with rack about 8 inches from heat source. Brush the heated marinade over chicken. Grill, turning and basting frequently with marinade, about 16 - 20 minutes, or until chicken is fork-tender.
• Arrange skewers on the platter, with cilantro cream sauce underneath, and salsa on top.

Steps:

• Melt half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper, and saute them in butter until golden on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add the remaining butter, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 5 more minutes.
• Pour the heavy cream into the skillet, and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and chicken is cooked through. Best when served with fresh French bread for dipping.

Steps:

• Dice/chop the onion based on your preferences. I prefer to chop mine in a food processor.
• Remove cilantro leaves from stems. Discard stems, and chop cilantro leaves or run through food processor slightly.
• If you prefer really chunky salsa, then simply mix all ingredients together.
• I prefer a more blended salsa, so I use a food processor to make my Rotel and petite diced tomatoes a bit smaller.
• I never measure the minced garlic, cumin, lime juice, salt, or pepper, so the amounts are all estimates. You can adjust to your own personal tastes.
• Enjoy! I've been known to just eat it straight from the bowl. :-).
