Grilled Panini's
Whip out your George Foreman! ( I love ours!) I grilled the peppers and Nick's tomato slices (marinated in balsamic and parmesan) first. Then i threw the sourdough, peppered turkey, pepperjack and peppers on the sandwhich and tada, lunch.
Chicken Chilaquiles
2 chicken breasts (I baked mine)
chopped green onions 1/2 cup plus more for top
cheese (you decide :) )
2 Tbsp. parmesan
1 tsp. chili powder
salt & pepper
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
11oz. canned tomatillos (or green salsa if you are like me and don't have access to tomatillos)
4.5 oz. green chilies
corn tortillas
Combine chicken, green onions, cheese, parmesan, chili powder, salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix milk cilantro, salsa/tomatillos and chilies in a food processor until smooth. Pour a little of the sauce mixture into pan, place tortillas on top, and half of the chicken mixture, repeat. Top with cheese and more green onions. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.
If you are like me and don't have a small pan, you can just wad up some foil and make a barrier :)
