Simply Delicious

I have been craving a jalapeño chicken kind of dish for a few days...so, tonight I just whipped out the 'peños, chicken, added a few things here and there that would compliment each other and made my dish to suit my taste buds. (hopefully my husband's too)

I did not want to do anything very complicated...I am all about "doing it simple" tonight...so here is what is for dinner at the Williams' household tonight.

Grilled Jalapeño Chicken

What you need:
*5-6 chicken tenderloins
*1 clove of garlic
* 1/2 a tomato
*1/4 onion
*2 jalapeños

What to do:
* Cook chicken on skillet with 2 TBSP. of olive oil
* Mince garlic and add to chicken
* Slice jalapeños in half and clean out the middle, chop, and add to chicken
* Puree tomato and onion and add to chicken
* Cook all ingredients together for about 15 minutes

With a dollop of sour cream...mmm

Refried Black Beans


What you need:
*3 1/2 cups of black beans
*1 clove of garlic
*1/4 of an onion
*1/2 of a tomato
*Salt to taste
*1 tsp. olive oil



What to do:
* In a blender - add black beans, garlic, chopped
  onion, chopped tomato, and salt (It is  also good to saute onion & garlic in skillet then add the rest of the
  ingredients.)
                       
* Blend mixture...should not be runny...should not be whole beans...a little clumps is okay
* Heat olive oil in skillet
* Once warm, add black beans


Guacamole
*4 avocados (cut in half and scrape insides into bowl)
*2 limes (squeeze with lemon juicer into bowl)
*Salt to taste (I like a lot)
*Mix (mash) together

Tostadas
*Preheat oven to 350 degrees
*On a cookie sheet place 6 corn tortillas
*Sprinkle shredded cheese over the tortillas
*Chop some cilantro and sprinkle on top of cheese
*Bake in oven for 5 minutes (longer for a more crunchy tostada)
