I am hungry.
So I created a cooking thread - how about that?!
DAVE'S FAMOUS TEXMEX CHICKEN (might not be halal)
Ingredients
1 - 1/2 lbs. boned, skinned chicken breast halves
1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
1 bag tortilla chips
MARINATE
It's not a terrible idea to marinate the chicken in 2 chopped garlic cloves, 1/2 cup lime juice, and 2 cups vegetable oil overnight.
TEXMEX Dressing
* 1/4 cup sour cream
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 tablespoon minced white onions
* 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro leaves
* 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
* 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
* Pinch chili powder
* Pinch red pepper flakes
In a blender, combine all the ingredients. Blend until smooth. Adjust the seasoning, to taste, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
After the TexMexyou can prepare the chicken,
When you are ready cook the chicken breast for 8 minutes over an open flame grill - really good idea if you marinated, you can use an oven if you are cool with it being ultra dry. Try to sear it if possible - adds to the texture.
When you are finished grilling, put a generous amount of the TexMex dressing on the chicken breasts and then put the shredded Colby jack cheese on top of that and stick it in the over until the cheese melts.
When you are finished place the chicken on top of a handful of tortilla chips and bam - you're done.
But Dave, is this Halal?
I dunno... I tried reading up on http://www.eat-halal.com/ (a pretty interesting sight if you have the time) and it appears that there might be a problem with the sourcream (milk product) so you can probably substitute for 1/3rd-1/2 cup plain Joghurt also I noticed vegetables are a problem.. or at least fresh vegetables so dried spices might still be okay.

chicken with cheese?-sounds yucky :?
Uh oh - Well I feel pretty darn confident that mine is better (does the recipe sound different?) a couple years ago I started using Tequila in the marinade but I KNOW that's not halal.
If you don't have colby you can probably get away with a comibation of monterey jack and cheddar (as sharp as possible) - hell might even be better.
I've had genuine Texans tell me I make a great TexMex chicken.
Nope - nothing to worry about, totally confident.
Yes sir, I am a mountain of confidence.
....exactly how good [i]was [/i]the texmex you had?
You haven't even tried it!
Alright then, I will hit you up with my equally famous lamb curry. Or maryland crab cakes.
Which is it lilsis - maryland crab cakes or lamb curry - I can only share one at a time.
send us a sample

mmmmmm maryland cookies-yummy
u wouldnt mind posting them to me Dave?
tell me more dishes to do with chicken-I lurve chicken
(pref non cheesy chicken :roll: )
I don't think they have [url=http://www.britsuperstore.com/acatalog/Maryland_Chocolate_Chip_&_Hazelnu... Cookies[/url] in America.
Maryland is a [url=http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/struggle_for_peace/land_maps/map.maryland.wyemi... in the Union[/url].
They call all biscuits cookies.
They call our 'cookies' chocolate chip cookies.
I think the 'Americanised' marketing behind Maryland Cookies is superficial.
alright clever clogs :roll: :roll:
El Sinaloense is really good - or a fajita!
The former has cheese the latter doesn't...
Pesto Chicken perhaps..
Hmm.... I'm gonna have to think about this chicken thing for a while.
What the hell are Maryland cookies? I don't spend much time in Maryland but i've never heard of Maryland cookies...
Thanks Irfghan!
Didn't know that - I don't suppose a London Broil has anything to do with London does it?
haha now wait, this is Dave's cooking thread not Dave's restaurant.
And how come nobody else is posting recipes!?
I'll do some deserts since everybody seems to be leaning that way.
Hayder's Breakfast Deluxe:
1 - grate some cheese
2 - spread some butter/margarine on slices of bread
3 - add the cheese on to the bread
4 - for extra flavour, you may wish to add baked beans
5 - grill in an oven until sizzling (approx 5 mins)
HEY PRONTO!

Have you ever made chicken jalfrezi?
If you want, I may remember how to make it. (I made it a couple of times a couple of years ago!)
erm... here goes:
Ingredients:
Boneless chicken. Diced. for this assume about 0.5 kg. (I think! it may be 1 kg. ANyway it should be enough for 4) Make sure the pieces are very small.
Tomatoes. 6 normal sized ones. (I guess in America normal sized is larger than here in the UK...)
Chillies. Depends on your tolerance.
Salt. also 'china salt' if you can find it (its black).
Eggs. 2 should do it.
Go to your supermarket and buy some asian cooking spice mix. I don't know the proportions of things mixed in them, but anything such as uncle bens tikka masala sauce may do. If you can get some asians to give you some mixed spice powders.
(It contains tomato powder, haldi etc...)
Instructions:
Get a pot.
put a small layer of cooking oil at the base. very thin layer.
Slice tomatoes, and add to the pan/pot. on low fire, mix until the tomatoes (or tomaytoes) form a cream with the oil.
Add the chicken. keep stirring, to make sure it does not stick to the base.
Keep stirring for 20-40 mins, until the watre the chicken lets off dries. Just before the end, add the spices (about 2 tablespoons), salt and mix away.
If you want it to look good, boil the eggs, and slice. If you want it to taste good, throw the eggs into the pot (minus the shells!). give it a good mix. Also add chillies to your desired taste.
Add corriander after taking it off fire, if you like corriander that is.
Once cooked, let it cool before eating.
Remember: No onions.

Back in BLACK
I LOVE chicken jelfrezi
i'm gonna print of the recipe and get my lazy sister to cook it :twisted:
but I'm gonna cut out the eggs bit
I've never eaten chicken jelfrazi with eggs in
[url=http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/recipe/search/recipe.aspx?recipe=3984]This[/... is one of my favourite dishes...cos its quick to cook…I found the recipe from the internet so I don’t have to type it out…
This tastes great over boiled rice....make sure you season to taste
This dish isnt that spicy though...I prefer my Asian food really spicy thats why the chicken Jalfrezi above is my favourite dish...I used to eat it reg when I was in Saudi/Pakistan
Those both sound good... i'm definitely doing Chicken Jalfrezi sometime this weekend.
NOW THAT I HAVE FREE TIME!!!
AHHHH AHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
(dramatic gasp)
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
oh boy oh boy oh boy I sure like being on vacation.
Even if it is the [i]North[/i]
*Note to unfortunate travelers in the Northern United States*
Never order iced tea in the North it's terribly bitter, and has zero sugar.
I swear civilization dies the minute you cross the border into Maryland.
do u really stand there and stir for 20-40 min? :shock:
u must be a dedicated cook
normally mums just stir for 5-10 min and let it cook on low heat for 20min
Whats so hard about stirring?
every couple of mins give it a good stir. As long as its on low heat its ok.
But its been a year atleast since I last made it...
(and I am very lazy. But where is the effort in stirring?)

What you put in the hearts of others; is what goes back into your own heart…
