Jalisco-Style Chicken


Kinda tired today. Lots of things going on all over. Re-read Bon Appetit from May on the train home 'cause I wasn't sure I had read it...saw the corners turned over and knew I had. I usually get home around 7 or 7:30p, so we regularly eat kinda late. I was tired, so whipped up this simple meal, with the boy's help:

Jalisco style chicken, carrots and baked fries!

Note: We try to be healthy, so our proportions might be smaller than people are used to.

Chicken
1 large breast with rib meat, split in two and pounded thin (or pork tenderloin)
Mix into a paste and rub on meat:
1 tb paprika
1 tb re wine vinegar
1 tsp fresh minced garlic (though it is okay with garlic powder as well)
1/2 tsp cumin ground
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp regular salt

Grill meat on cook sprayed grill (foreman type or real one)for a few minutes...watch it doesn't take long because it is thin. Or saute in a few tb of olive oil in a pan.

Serve with some lovely fresh carrots and baked frozen fries (try spraying these with fat free butter cook spray and sprinkling with sea salt and fresh ground pepper!).

Drizzle entire plate with lime juice and 2tb of chopped fresh cilantro.

Light, refreshing and good for you.

Today we are thankful for: The boy is thankful for his job; I am thankful for an appreciative client.
