Dinner Friday July 31st 2009

On the menu for tonight: Rosemary & Parmesan Chicken Rulot served with crimini mushrooms, community garden swiss char, scalloped potatoes, a dark chicken consumee and pomegranate gastrique... the perks of dating a chef ;-)

Pepinillos

So my favorite snack is Pepinillos:

• peel a cucumber and slice it up
• get your ingrediants, 2 limes, salt and hot sauce (I use tapatio)
  
• squirt some lime juice onto the bottom of the plate and layer some cucumber slices on top.
• sprinkle on salt to taste, a dash of hot sauce and some lime juice, continue layering slices marinating them as you go. at the end squirt whatever lime juice you have left over it.
  

I swear this is a million times better then popcorn and way more healthy too. Now here's the kicker, after I chow down on these delicious cukes I drink the juice... It feels like a smack in the face, but then you come back for more. I swear you will love them, just try it! Super easy to make, cheep ingredients and a delicious treat! Don't forget to let me know how you liked em!
