Tex-Mex spicy chicken & rice

Recipe from Kathleen McMahon of New York

  • 1 lb. chicken tenders
  • 1 bag of Success brown rice
  • 2 15 oz. cans of DelMonte tomatoes with chili peppers
  • 1 green pepper diced
  • 1 red pepper diced
  • 1 15 oz. can black beans or chick peas (or both)
  • 1 sm. jar pimentos (drained)
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Garlic Pepper
  • Chili Powder

Directions:

In a deep wok type pan pour enough extra virgin oil to cover the bottom of the pan.  Saute chicken tenders seasoned with garlic pepper until just about done.  Add chili powder (enough to cover all of the chicken) then add red peppers, green peppers and onion, saute with chicken until tender.  Add tomatoes and beans, then add the uncooked rice and let the entire pot stew over medium heat. Cook until rice is done. You may need to add more crushed or diced tomatoes because rice will absorb fluid.  If you want it spicier, add more chili powder and/or black pepper. You can also use jalapeno peppers to add real zest.

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
