Chicken On A Stick

Chicken on a Stick

Here is a little recipe for a kebab-style chicken.  I first made this in May of 2004- 10 years ago!  I remember making it for guests, and it being well received.  My husband liked it too.


Marinade:
2 Tbs Canola Oil
2 Tbs Lemon Juice (or Juice of one lemon)
2 Tbs Soy Sauce
4 Garlic Cloves, minced
2 Teaspoons Honey
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 Teaspoon Ground Coriander
1 Teaspoon Ground Ginger

1 Pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, cut in strips or Chicken Tenderloins

Marinate chicken 3-4 hours.  Put the chicken on a skewer, either with vegetables or without, and grill until done.


Note-  I made this without the coriander because I didn't have any and it was still good.  So, if you don’t have any of that, don’t worry.  You could probably use orange juice or lime juice of you didn't have lemon juice.  Just “eyeball” the ingredients.

Bi-Coastal Salsa

Bi-coastal Salsa Chop up these ingredients and put in a big bowl: 3 cloves garlic 3 green onions 1 small or ½ large red onion 1 small or 1 large Vidalia or sweet onion (1/2 jalepeno) 3-5 Tomatoes 1 green bell pepper 1 red bell pepper 1 orange bell pepper 1 yellow bell pepper (purple bell peppers are nice too, if available) ½ bunch chopped cilantro Mix together: 1-2 tbs red wine vinegar ¼ C lime juice (juice of 1 large  lime or two small ones) Grated lime peel Pepper ¼ tbs ground cumin 1 tsp oregano 1 tsp olive oil (or other salad oil of your choice) I adapted this recipe from two different salsa recipes.   One was from an LA Weigh Loss cook book, and another was from the South Beach cookbook… so, I named this “Bi-Coastal Salsa”! There is no cooking involved here, but the cutting can be tedious if it’s not your favorite thing to do. I like the peppers and onions to be chopped quite fine.   Putting them through a processor is an option, but

Summer Spinach Salad Dressing

Summer Spinach Salad Dressing 2/3 cup sugar or Splenda 1/3 cup cider vinegar 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1 small onion, finely chopped (in the food processor) 4 teaspoons prepared mustard (I use Dijon or deli mustard) 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground pepper This was originally recorded in my recipe journal on July 10, 2004 and came from a Taste of Home magazine.   My mom used to work in a FACS department and would get all the old Taste of Home Magazines.   I would sit and peruse them for hours trying to find things that looked good to try to make! Since it is such a sweet dressing, it pairs nicely with spinach, fruit and nuts.
